By STEVE LAW The Tribune

As the city giveth, the county taketh away. James Peterson found out the hard way. Last year, he added a 522-square-foot, one- bedroom apartment above the detached garage at his Northeast Portland home. The city of Portland actively encourages such accessory dwelling units, or ADUs, allowing them on most lots and waiving several thousand dollars in de- velopment fees. This year, a Multnomah County assessor came by to figure out what Peterson’s new apartment was worth, to add it to his property bill. It was then that Peterson “I think it learned the county also could kill would reassess his main house, valuing it for tax roughly half purposes as if it also were the ADU brand-new construction.

OWNER & NEIGHBOR A2 NEWS The Portland Tribune Tuesday, September 22, 2015 Trees: ‘South Park’ co-creator gave cash ■ From page 1 and contributor to several tele- vision shows, says his friend, South Park co-creator Matt Stone, agreed to help fund the proposal. “He didn’t contribute all the money,” Bradford said. “He just made a contribution that made a difference.” He adds that they still need more. “The developer came down signifi - cantly on his price, but we still have to raise a lot of money to meet it.” The group had previously raised around $550,000, includ- ing money from a different de- veloper. They are now raising money through Friends of Trees, with a closing date of Oct. 1. Remmers previously had re- quired $900,000 to sell. The county tax assessor puts the two lots’ combined value at $591,000, including the house built in 1922 that was demol- ished. Everett Custom Homes bought the lot in April for $653,000 and split it in two. Bradford says the current plan is to have developer Ethan Beck build a small home on the western edge of the property, with the lot contain- ing the three trees turned into a public space of some sort. ‘I’m not a protester’ The protest got dramatic Thursday afternoon around 2 p.m., when Portland police offi - cers opened gates to allow tree-cutting equipment through to the property, but protesters formed a human fence, blocking the vehicles. Bradford gave an impas- sioned plea to television cam- eras after the trucks drove out of sight. “They are trying to cut down these trees while we are talk- ing,” Bradford said. “I was two remaining old-growth with these duct-tape style res- on the phone Demonstrator Douglas fi rs near Southeast Fingers pointed at tree code olutions where things are just with the may- and 41st Avenue and Southeast Bogren argued that the group glued together,” he said. or.
