B. In relation to business and residential property other than exempt residential property where physical changes to the property on or after July 1, 2017 have resulted in an increase or decrease in square footage of improvements, as compared to the square footage as of July 1, 2017, the fee established by this Chapter, for management of such property in the Central Eastside Industrial District in a license year, will be as provided in this Subsection:
1. During the period between the date the City Bureau of Development Services issues an authorization, documentable by written documentation, to occupy the improvements, or during the period between 180 days after the date the Bureau of Development Services issues such an authorization to occupy any portion of the improvements that was not occupied while the physical changes were being made, and the date of beginning of the license year following the first property tax assessment year in which the assessment roll reflects the physical changes, the fee otherwise payable during the period will be adjusted to the following amount, prorated based on the number of days of the period in the applicable license year:
a. The amount determined under Subsection A.1., plus $.45 (cents) per $1,000 of the cost of the physical changes, as determined from the City Bureau of Development Services records of all building permits issued authorizing or in association with the physical changes;
b. Plus the amount determined under Subsection A.2., plus $3.50 per 290 additional square feet of improvements, resulting from the physical changes, as determined from the City Bureau of Development Services records of building permits issued authorizing or in association with the physical changes;
c. Plus the amount determined under Subsection A.3.
2. Beginning with the license year following the first property tax assessment year in which the assessment roll reflects the physical changes, the fee will be:
a. $.45 (cents) per $1,000 of assessed value of improvements for the first property tax assessment year in which the assessment roll reflects the physical changes or would reflect the changes were the property not assessed by the Oregon Department of Revenue;
b. Plus $3.50 per 290 square feet of improvements, as of July 1 of the first property tax assessment year in which the assessment roll reflects the physical changes or would reflect the changes were the property not assessed by the Oregon Department of Revenue;
c. Plus the amount set out in Subsection A.3.;
d. Plus the total of the amounts determined under Subsections B.2.a. through B.2.c. multiplied by a 2.3 percent annual escalator for the license years commencing on or after July 1, 2020.
C. In computing the fee as provided in Subsection A. or B.:
1. In relation to real property within the Central Eastside Industrial District as to which a licensee is engaged in property management activities, where the property in part is exempt residential property or religious organization property or,
2. In relation to persons generally exempt from the license requirements of this Chapter under Section 6.06.050 but where the exemption does not apply to property management activities in relation to part of the property they manage, the fee in relation to property management activities as to such real property will be the fee computed as though management of the entire property were subject to the fee multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the square footage of the area in which the licensee is engaged in property management activities subject to the fee (including land or improvements, as applicable) and the denominator of which is the square footage of the entire real property parcel (including land or improvements, as applicable).
3. In relation to property within the District as to which there is more than one property manager for a given property, the fee for each property manager will be calculated as follows:
a. Each property manager’s fee will first be computed as though the property manager was subject to the fee for the entire property. That amount will then be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the square footage of the area for which the property manager is engaged in property management activities subject to the fee (including land or improvements, as applicable), and the denominator of which is the square footage of the entire real property parcel (including land or improvements, as applicable); and
b. If there are common area improvements in a property subject to Subsection a. above, then in computing square footage of each property manager’s improvements, such square footage will be deemed to include an allocated portion of the common area improvements. The allocated portion of common area improvements will be determined by multiplying the square footage of common are improvements by a fraction, the numerator of which is the square footage of the property improvements subject to this fee for each district manager, and the denominator of which is the square footage of all improvements on the property less the square footage of the common area improvements.
D. The Central Eastside Industrial District license requirements will not apply to exempt property. For purposes of this Section, “exempt property” means exempt property as defined in subsection 6.06.020 I. and also means exempt residential property. For purposes of this Section, “exempt residential property” means a dwelling unit as defined in Chapter 33.910 of this Code that is owner-occupied and has its own separate water service.
E. The Central Eastside Industrial District license fee requirement will be reduced by 50 percent per license year for non profit organizations organized under section 501 of the U.S. Tax Code.
F. The Central Eastside Industrial District license fee requirement will be reduced by 50 percent per license year for low income housing. For purposes of this Subsection, low income housing is dwelling units available for rent at rates that are considered affordable, under federal affordability standards in effect on July 1, 1997, to persons earning 60 percent or less of the Portland region median income as identified in the records of Metro as of July 1 of each year.

1. Surface and structured parking lot area;
2. Landscaped area;
3. Unenclosed sidewalk, plaza, and courtyard area; and
