Board adopts enterprise‑zone school support fee resolution; packet lists 15% rate
Summary
Commissioners approved a resolution implementing a 15% school support fee for the Philomath enterprise zone as set by the school board and city council; staff said this is the final step after local approvals.
The Benton County board voted to adopt a resolution formalizing the school support fee for a Philomath enterprise zone.
Staff said the Philomath City Council and the school board had determined a 15% fee rate; the resolution in the county packet implements that determination as the final step. Commissioner Pat Malone moved to adopt the resolution and Nancy Wise seconded; the board voted in favor.
The resolution was described as the last step in the approval sequence following city and school board action. The packet and staff presentation noted that the county's action completes the local approvals necessary to put the zone and fee into effect at the county level.
Next steps: staff will file the adopted resolution consistent with the county’s administrative processes and coordinate with Philomath on implementation.
