Victrola records, 100 years old, and can be played on the Victrola offered by an other party
You may have noted a recent ad, by another party, advertising a rare Victrola record player with the proper needle to play these 100 year old records. Plus, it’s been rebuilt. This is a perfect possible combination of these records and that antique Victrola record player. Great for a beach residence, and a nice bargain price investment in history. $100.00 or offer.

North Tillamook County Library Art Exhibit for February
Now All Oregon Supreme Court Judges picked by Governor Kate Brown
Our state constitution says that the citizens of Oregon get to vote for Supreme Court Judges. But we haven’t done this in years.
WHY – Because of corruption. As much for the judges as the governor.
Here is how it works: In Oregon, when a Justice steps down from the bench before his or her term is up for whatever reason, the governor – by law – gets to fill that position until the next election. Now any judge that the governor picks to fill this position has to agree to step down before his or her term is up so that the governor can pick another judge. That shows the governor and the judge are in collusion. Not good for judge nor governor – right? But worse for us.
At election time the name of the judge the governor picked appears on the ballot. No other name appears on the ballot for this position and so this candidate, picked by the governor, will win even if nobody votes for him or her. This has been going on for years.
That means that these judges decide issues politically instead of judiciously.
How does this effect you?

How our property tax system works
I reached out to both candidates, requesting a short summary (so that both would fit within the constraints of BBQ).
The first response came from Kari Fleisher, who submitted the summary you will see below. She also stated that she welcomes any further questions to: kari@karifleisher.com and my website at www.karifleisher.com. Also, you can always direct traffic to the Assessment and Taxation website at www.tillamookcounty.gov/assessment
Unfortunately the second candidate, KaSandra Larson, was not able to provide a summary due to “personal and family obligations to attend to this week.” She said she will, however, explore a future article on the property tax system.
So, with that said, here is Kari’s summary:
As a candidate for Tillamook County Assessor, Kari Fleisher aims to ensure that Tillamook County taxpayers are informed about the property tax laws that bind us all. In Oregon, property taxes provide funding for school districts, Tillamook County, cities, and special districts, including fire, ports, transportation, and sanitation. These government organizations offer services to the local community. Property taxes are ad valorem, aka based on value. Taxpayers pay taxes based on the assessed value of their individual properties.
Oregon voters passed two significant laws that limited the amount of property taxes collected
from taxpayers and the amount of money taxing districts can receive. First, Measure 5 limited
the total property taxes paid by an individual property to 1.5% of its Real Market Value. The
second was Measure 50, which created a new term called Maximum Assessed Value. The Maximum Assessed Value typically grows 3% per year and is not tied to Real Market Value once set. The lower of the two annually becomes the Assessed Value. An individual property can see increases in their Maximum Assessed Value above 3% due to changes to their property like new construction, remodeling, rehabilitation, subdivision, and more. One downfall of Measure 50 is that Assessed Values are no longer equitable to like property. Only Real Market Value can be used for comparison/equity purposes.
All properties are assessed per Oregon Revised Statutes that allow using cost, market, and
income approaches to value. In Tillamook County, we use a computer-assisted mass appraisal
system to input various property information to calculate a value. We annually adjust our
valuations based on market research. Programs like personal business property and industrial
property require using directly reported costs from taxpayers.
Taxing districts had a permanent tax rate set when Measure 50 was passed. The only way to ask for more money is for a 5-year operating levy or a bond limited to capital improvements. Both require voter approval. Once passed by the voters, this will increase the tax rate and taxes for all property owners within the district.
