SCR 204 Oregon Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Honoring the Association of Oregon Counties on the 120th anniversary of its founding.

SCR 204 is a concurrent resolution honoring the Association of Oregon Counties (AOC) on its 120th anniversary. It formally recognizes the AOC's historical role in representing Oregon's 36 counties and its contributions to state governance, including supporting county services like elections, public safety, infrastructure, and advocacy for policies like property tax systems and transportation funding. The resolution has no policy impact or funding changes - it is purely ceremonial, celebrating the AOC's work without creating new obligations.
