Strategies for Dealing with Oregon's New Tax
Requirements
Ballot
measures 66 and 67 passed. Now what? On
January 29, voters approved two new tax
measures that will impact all Oregon
businesses as well as individuals making
more than $125,000 per year. S Corporation?
C Corporation? LLC?: Is one corporate
structure more advantageous than another?
What is the impact to you personally as a
business owner? What new costs can you
expect the next time you renew your Oregon
corporation license? Don L. Pinkham, CPA,
Medford, will lead a discussion on what you
need to know to minimize your tax exposure
in the years to come.
New ODOT DBE NAICS Requirements
In March, the Oregon Department of
Transportation (ODOT) is adopting a
significant rule change that will impace
general contractors and minority-owned
businesses alike.
Effective March 1, DBE businesses must be
certified within specific NAICS codes in
order for their participation to be counted
toward project commitments of DBE
participation on ODOT projects. ODOT bids
from general contractors who select
minority-owned businesses not certified
within the appropriate NAICS code could
unknowingly be deemed non=responsive to
project goals. Minority-owned construction
companies who represent their ability to do
certain work will have new requirements as
well.
Successful
Communication on a Construction Team
Held
in partnership with the Construction
Specifications Institute (CSI). The session
will feature a contractor, architect,
designer, and owner’s rep discussing
effective communication from their
perspective – what works and what doesn’t.
