Cities to Receive Additional Marijuana Payment
All cities will receive one more state shared revenue payment for marijuana taxes collected between January 1, 2016 and June 30, 2017. The payment will be much smaller than the approximately $8 million payment made to cities in October (calculations are still pending, but the expected city portion should be around $200,000). The payment is expected to be made in mid to late December and will be distributed on a per capita basis. The payment is occurring largely because there were some additional tax payments that came in without finalized tax returns for the time period. Those payments have been reconciled, allowing the revenues to be distributed.

Cities Without Marijuana Bans Are Reminded to Complete Quarterly Certification
Cities should have received an email Friday from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) with a link to an online certification that is due December 6. This quarterly certification asks questions regarding local regulation of marijuana. Cities that have not banned marijuana premises for the six defined license types and provide a timely response are eligible to receive a quarterly state shared revenue payment. The payment is expected in December.
