ZONE: The property is currently zoned RS, Urban Standard Residential, and is designated as Medium Residential Density by the Bend Area General Plan. HEARING AND EXHIBITS A hearing was held on the above -referenced application on February 2, 1988. The following exhibits make up the record in this matter: A. Application; B. Burden of Proof Statement; C. Maps of the subject parcel and notification boundary; D. Staff Report; E. Deeds and other documents evidencing title to the property; F. November 20, 1987 from Robert Lovlien; G. November 20, 1987 Memo from John Hossick; H. Staff Report Addendum dated January 14, 1988; and I. October 28, 1987 letter from Robert Lovlien. -1- FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION, Case No. ZC-87-3 0®90-1122 APPLICABLE CRITERIA The application is reviewed under the provisions of Section 33 of PL -11, the Bend Urban Area Zoning Ordinance, which provides: 1. That the change conforms with the Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, that the change is consistent with the Plan's intent to promote an orderly pattern and sequence of growth. 2. That the change will not interfere with existing development on, development potential or value of other land in the vicinity of the proposed action. 3. That the change in classification for the subject property is consistent with the purpose and intent of the proposed zone classification. 4. That the change will result in the orderly and efficient extension or provision of public services. Also, that the change is consistent with the City of Bend policy for provision of public facilities. 5. That there is a proof of a change of circumstance or a mistake in the original zoning. FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The subject area is approximately five acres in size, and consists of three tax lots. There is an existing, older single family home, adjacent to Brosterhous Road and there is also an existing apartment complex (Country Terrace Apartments) located on the easterly portion of the parcels. The topography is generally undulating, with a vegetative covering of Ponderosa and Juniper trees, manzanita, bitterbrush, sagebrush and native grasses. 2. Access to the site is currently off of Brosterhous Road, which is an improved County road. 3. Land uses in the surrounding area consist of a main COID Irrigation canal on the west and northerly boundary. To the east is vacant land and some residential dwellings, further east is a mobile home park. To the south is Brosterhous Road and further south are a number of single family dwelling scattered on large parcels. 4. The applicant intends to develop an apartment complex on the property. The proposed development would need to undergo a site plan review through the County Planning Division. -2- FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION, Case No. ZC-87-3 0090-1123 5. The Planning Staff has conducted a survey of the existing RM zoned parcels outside of the City limits but within the Urban Growth Boundary, the results are shown below: NORTH - Ten lots off of Ross Road, at Boyd Acres Road. Two of these parcels are vacant, the remainder have single family dwellings primarily on large parcels - one of the parcels is used by Bend Millworks as a parking lot. SOUTH - Two lots in Sunrise Village off of Century Drive. These are both vacant. One lot adjacent to the Bend Cinema Theatre on Cleveland Street which is under construction for a parking lot for the theatre. Six lots east of Division Street near Hayes Avenue. Two of these are vacant, the remainder have single family dwellings on them. EAST - Nothing WEST - One larger parcel on Shevlin Park Road which is vacant. CONCLUSIONARY FINDINGS 1. The applicant must show that the change conforms with the Bend Area General Plan. The Plan statement which appears applicable to this request is Policy No. 14 which states: Medium and High Density residential development shall be located where they have good access to arterial streets and near commercial services or public open space. This request is in conformance with this policy. 2. That the change conforms with all applicable statutes. This change is in conformance with all applicable statutes and the zoning ordinance. 3. That the change conforms with the Statewide Planning Goals where applicable. The Bend Urban Area General Plan is an acknowledged Plan and the change does not need to be reviewed in conformance with the Statewide Planning Goals therefor. 4. That there is a public need for a change of this kind. There are low vacancy rates in the Country Terrace Apartments which is one of the existing land uses on the parcel. Vacancy rates in other rental properties in the southern part of the Bend Urban Area appear to show a need for additional multi -family housing. -3- FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATION, Case No. ZC-87-3 0050-1124 5. That the need would be best preserved by changing the classification of this particular piece of property in question. Based on the survey stated above, it appears that this parcel is equal or better than other existing zoned parcels in the southern portion of the Bend Urban area. Further, given the proximity of the property to Highway 97, it is unlikely the property will be developed for single family residential use. 6. That there is a proof of change of circumstances from the stated original zoning. This area was originally designated on the Bend Urban Area Plan as Medium Density Residential. There has been an apartment complex existing on part of the property before this current zoning designation. Further, there has been extensive commercial growth in the immediate area all of which warrant the zone change on this property to Medium Density Residential. 7. At the hearing concern was raised about traffic and sewage in the area, specifically, on Brosterhous Road. The Hearings Officer finds that the issues of traffic and sewage can be addressed adequately during the development phase of this property and, specifically, with site plan requirements. BASED UPON the above findings, the Hearings Officer hereby recommends to the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners that the above zone change be APPROVED.
