Or. Admin. R. 123-656-0100 - Definitions
OAR 123-001 (Procedural Rules) and 123-650 define terms used in this division of administrative rules. In addition:
(1) As used in ORS
285C.085(4)(b),
"all areas within both the federal enterprise zone and the city, county or port
are included in a state enterprise zone" means that the state enterprise zone
will need to encompass all of the Federal Enterprise Zone inside the territory
of any city, port or county that will sponsor the zone. This is true regardless
that such territory is also inside an overlapping city, port or county that
neither sponsors nor consents to the zone, in that not every city, port or
county needs to sponsor or consent as required under ORS
285C.065,
285C.066 or
285C.068, but other
jurisdictions may formally consent to include parts of the Federal Enterprise
Zone that are outside sponsor territory in the state enterprise zone consistent
with OAR 123-650-0500.
