(a) Application for open space use special assessment is or has been made under ORS 308A.306;
(b) The land qualifies for open space use special assessment;
(c) The application for open space use special assessment is or has been approved under ORS 308A.309 and 308A.312;
(d) The open space use is for a golf course open to the general public with or without payment of fee or charge; and
(e) All or a portion of the land is within or is contiguous to an urban growth boundary.
(2) Land described in subsection (1) of this section shall not, upon the change from farm or forest use to open space use, be subject to any of the additional taxes ordinarily applicable when land specially assessed under one of the special assessment laws listed under ORS 308A.706 (1)(d) is disqualified, declassified or otherwise removed from such special assessment.
(3) When land that has been changed from special assessment as farm or forest land to open space use special assessment under subsections (1) and (2) of this section is later withdrawn or otherwise removed from open space use special assessment, all the provisions of ORS 308A.300 to 308A.330 shall apply except that there shall be added to the amount of additional taxes imposed under ORS 308A.318 or 308A.321 and computed under ORS 308A.312 (3), the amount of the additional taxes that, except for subsections (1) and (2) of this section, would have been added at the time of the change. However, in making the computation of the amount to be added under this subsection, the number of years specified in ORS 308A.703 shall be reduced by the number of continuous years of open space use special assessment in effect for the land pursuant to the change.

(5) Upon receipt of any application for open space use special assessment under ORS 308A.300 to 308A.330, the public official or agency shall notify the owner of the provisions of this section. [Formerly 321.795]
