The district was formed by the Clackamas County Board of Commissioners in 1989, originally as the Molalla Transportation District[1] (and later renamed South Clackamas Transportation District), to replace TriMet service. Molalla withdrew from the TriMet district on January 1, 1989.[2] In the 2001 Fiscal Year (which started on July 1, 2000), the district's budget was approximately $700,000 ($1,011,000 2019).[3] SCTD is funded by an employer payroll tax levied on employers within the district's boundaries. As of 2000, the tax rate was three-tenths of a percent.[3] The current rate is five-tenths of one percent (0.5 percent).[4]
