CHAPTER 5 SUPPLEMENTAL SECTIONS SECTION 5.5 OPEN SPACE, SCENIC VIEWS AND SITES INVENTORIES
Background
This section contains information from the 1979 Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan as
revised. It lists the open spaces, scenic views and sites resources in Deschutes County. These
inventories have been acknowledged by the Department of Land Conservation and
Development as complying with Goal 5. No changes have been proposed for the 2010
Comprehensive Plan update.
To protect scenic views, landscape management areas have been defined and a combining zone
created. On lands outside urban growth boundaries and rural service centers along the
portions of roadways listed below, landscape management zoning applies and a case-by-case site
plan review is required. The area extends ¼ mile on either side from the centerline of the
roadways and includes all areas designated as State and Federal Wild, Scenic or recreational
waterways and within 660 feet from either side of designated rivers and streams as measured
from the ordinary high water level.
Landscape Management Roads, Rivers and Streams
Inventory: All land within one-quarter of a mile, as measured at right angles from the centerline,
of any of the following designated Landscape Management Roadways. All land within the
boundaries of a state scenic waterway or a federal wild and scenic river corridor; and all land
within 660 feet of the ordinary high water mark of portions the following designated rivers and
streams which are not designated as state scenic waterways or federal wild and scenic rivers.

acknowledged by the Department of Land Conservation and Development as complying with
Goal 5. No changes have been proposed for the 2010 Comprehensive Plan update.
Hydroelectric Resources of the Upper Deschutes River Basin
Inventory: Available information is adequate to indicate that the resource is significant. The City
of Bend/Deschutes County River Study inventoried 16 proposed hydroelectric project sites in
Deschutes County. Twelve were located on the Deschutes River; two on Tumalo Creek; two
on Whychus Creek; and one on the Crooked River in Deschutes County. For a more detailed
discussion of the hydroelectric resources in Deschutes County see the Deschutes County/City
of Bend River Study, April 1986 (River Study), Chapters 2, 3, and 4. Also refer to the River
Study staff report. The River Study and River Study staff report are incorporated herein by

CHAPTER 5 SUPPLEMENTAL SECTIONS SECTION 5.10 GOAL EXCEPTION STATEMENTS
Background
The purpose of this section is to identify the lands where Deschutes County demonstrated an
exception to meeting the requirements of the Statewide Planning Goals. The intent of goal
exceptions is to allow some flexibility in rural areas under strictly defined circumstances. Goal
exceptions are defined and regulated by Statewide Planning Goal 2 and Oregon Administrative
Rule 660-004 (excerpt below).
660-004-0000(2) An exception is a decision to exclude certain land from the requirements of
one or more applicable statewide goals in accordance with the process specified in Goal 2,
Part II, Exceptions. The documentation for an exception must be set forth in a local
government’s comprehensive plan. Such documentation must support a conclusion that the
standards for an exception have been met.
Statewide Planning Goals with Deschutes County Exceptions
▪ Goal 3 Agricultural Lands
▪ Goal 4 Forest Lands
▪ Goal 11 Public Facilities and Services
▪ Goal 14 Urbanization
Three types of exceptions are permitted by Oregon Administrative Rule 660-004
