How does urban renewal work?
The Oregon Constitution allows the Legislature to set up a system to finance urban renewal. Oregon Revised Statute Chapter 457 describes how the system works. This law gives cities and counties urban renewal powers. These powers provide a way to finance projects to remove “blight.” Examples of blight include poor quality buildings or inadequate streets.
