Bill Summary

The statement includes a measure digest written in compliance with applicable readability standards. Digest: The Act concerns a limit on moneys put in the County Fair Account.

Removes the annual limit of $1.53 million, adjusted for inflation, on allocations from the Ad- ministrative Services Economic Development Fund to the County Fair Account.

AI Summary

This bill removes the annual limit of $1.53 million on allocations from the Administrative Services Economic Development Fund to the County Fair Account. Currently, the law allows allocations of one percent of net Oregon State Lottery proceeds to the County Fair Account, but with a cap that has been adjusted for inflation over time. The bill eliminates this cap, which means counties could potentially receive more funding for fair-related expenses. The allocation remains subject to existing constitutional requirements and other financial obligations related to lottery proceeds, such as payments for Westside lottery bonds and other pledges. By removing the monetary limit, the bill provides more flexibility for funding county fairs and potentially allows for increased support based on actual lottery proceeds, rather than a fixed, inflation-adjusted maximum amount.
