Voters say yes to Clackamas Sheriff s Levy May 18 2021
Levy to add maintain deputies, add mental health beds and body camera program winning by considerable margin.
Clackamas County voters approved the sheriff s levy once again, according to early election results.
As of 8 p.m. Tuesday, May 18, there were 19,774 yes votes and 15,694 no votes.
Voters first passed the Clackamas Sheriff s Levy in 2006 and have approved it every five years since.
This year though, for the first time, new Clackamas County Sheriff Angela Brandenburg raised the taxation rate on the levy by 12 cents up to 36.8 cents per $1,000 of assessed value. That amounts to a cost of approximately $8.19 per month, or $98.26 per year, on a home with an assessed value of $267,000, which is the median assessed value of a home in Clackamas County (note that assessed value is lower than market value).
