Re-authorization of the levy on the ballot for May 16th, 2023

This is a status quo request, as we don't plan to increase or decrease the number of employees this levy provides.   By going out a year early (2023), the new levy would replace the 5th year of the existing levy and start over at a cost of 49.5 cents per thousand of assessed value.  The purpose of going out a year early is to provide stability and continuity for all the staff who have been already hired for these positions covered under the levy.  

Oregon's Tobacco Prevention and Education Program works with diverse partners statewide to:

• Promote smoke-free environments and communities
• Reduce the influence of tobacco product marketing
