She is a new resident and when they purchased their home they had looked for 7 years for a property. She is a retired police officer from California and her husband is also in law enforcement. She embraces the community and wants to be a part of this community. The majority of her work experience proves crime stems from the realm of drug use.

She owns the neighboring property. She is a registered nurse and works for Teen Challenge. Ms. York lives on the border. There are so many facilities in the area and asks why there are so many facilities in this area. They have 100 acres and doesn't know how this will impact their farm.

Marijuana production and marijuana processing shall be subject to the following standards and criteria: 1 Order Ns 2018-033 247-18-000412-A Page 2 of 7 10. Odor. As used in DCC 18.116.330(8)(10), building means the building, including greenhouses, hoop houses, and other similar structures, used for marijuana production or marijuana processing. a. The building shall be equipped with an effective odor control system which must at all times prevent unreasonable interference of neighbors' use and enjoyment of their property. b. An odor control system is deemed permitted only after the applicant submits a report by a mechanical engineer licensed in the State of Oregon demonstrating that the system will control odor so as not to unreasonably interfere with neighbors' use and enjoyment of their property. c. Private actions alleging nuisance or trespass associated with odor impacts are authorized, if at all, as provided in applicable state statute. d. The odor control system shall: i. Consist of one or more fans. The fan(s) shall be sized for cubic feet per minute (CFM) equivalent to the volume of the building (length multiplied by width multiplied by height) divided by three. The filter(s) shall be rated for the required CFM; or ii. Utilize an alternative method or technology to achieve equal to or greater odor mitigation than provided by (i) above. e. The system shall be maintained in working order and shall be in use. OBJECTION: The Notice of Appeal states: "There is not sufficient history by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on air quality standards for such a facility to adequately guarantee that there will not be odor pollution generated by the operation effecting surrounding properties and subsequently reducing in surrounding property values [sic]. The proposed Charcoal/Carbon air filters have no indicators to determine when the filters have depleted their effectiveness and need changed. If the owners do not change filters at recommended intervals, then pungent orders will be emitted into the outside air." STAFF COMMENT: Establishment and maintenance of an effective odor control system is required. Staff notes that the applicant submitted a site-specific report by an Oregon -licensed Mechanical Engineer which proposed the following: The odor control system will consist of activated carbons filters attached to inline fans that recirculate air within each structure. The capacity of this carbon filtration system will be no less than the volume of the space divided by three, in accordance with DCC 18.116.330(8)(10)(d). Space volumes and fan recommendations are tabulated below. Any similar carbon filtration system with equal or greater capacity may be used. Several sizes of Can -Filter will suffice, although we recommend Can 150 filters. 247-18-000412-A Page 3 of 7 Room Length (ft) Width (ft) Avg. Height (ft) Volume Flower 1 41 42 13 22,386 Flower 2 41 42 13 22,386 Vegetation 24 40 13 12,480 Staging 18 40 13 9,360 Room Req -d CFM Fan Selection Flower 1 7,462 12" Max -Fan Flower 2 7,462 12" Max -Fan Vegetation 4,160 12" Max -Fan Staging 3,120 12" Max -Fan # of Fans Total CFM Surplus CFM 5 7,975 513 5 7,975 513 3 4,785 625 2 3,190 70 This system will satisfy code and mitigate all odor leaving the building. Maintenance for this system will be in accordance with manufacturer instructions: "The life of a filter is determined by the concentration of the contaminant, the relative humidity and the volume of air being cleaned. Unfortunately, there is no indicator light on the filter that tells you when it is ready to be replaced. Typically 12-18 months is expected of the Original Can -Filter, although many of them have lasted much longer." Additionally, as part of the annual reporting, staff will conduct a site visit to ensure that the marijuana production facility meets the requirements and conditions of approval, including the maintenance of odor control systems. A condition of approval was included in the decision to ensure that these requirements will be met. 13. Water. The applicant shall provide: a. A copy of a water right permit, certificate, or other water use authorization from the Oregon Water Resource Department; or b. A statement that water is supplied from a public or private water provider, along with the name and contact information of the water provider; or c. Proof from the Oregon Water Resources Department that the water to be used is from a source that does not require a water right. OBJECTION: The Notice of Appeal states: 'There is no stated requirement that a water use meter be installed on the property's domestic use well to insure (sic] that no domestic well water is used in the growing operation." STAFF COMMENT: Staff notes that the applicant has not proposed to utilize domestic water sources for any portion of the marijuana production operation. The applicant proposed to utilize 51.0 acres of irrigation from Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) for production purposes. The applicant 247-18-000412-A Page 4 of 7 included the water right certificate for this irrigation right, which highlights the irrigation season as April 1st to October 31St. For periods of time outside of the irrigation season, the applicant proposes to have water delivered to the property by ABC Lightning LLC and stored on site in an existing cistern. The applicant submitted a letter from ABC Lightning stating they are willing and able to serve the farm use on this property with up to 12,000 gallons of water per month, which will be delivered in weekly increments of 3,000 gallons. The water delivered by ABC Lightning will be provided by Avion Water Company. The applicant submitted a letter from Avion which states the following: Avion Water Company, Inc. is willing and able to provide potable water to the above described production, provided all requirements by Avion Water Company are met and all monies due are paid in accordance with Avion's approved tariff Avion is aware that the applicant intends to construct a cannabis production/processing facility and that the water will be used for agriculture purposes. Avion is also aware that the applicant plans on having Avion water delivered by ABC Lightning Water during the non -irrigation season months. The water usage for the above described production is estimated at 4,000 gallons per month. Avion has the capacity to meet the potential demand. 14. Fire protection for processing of cannabinoid extracts. Processing of cannabinoid extracts shall only be permitted on properties located within the boundaries of or under contract with a fire protection district. OBJECTION: The Notice of Appeal states: "If the marijuana processing involves the use of high temperature and combustible grain alcohol to perform the process of obtaining a Full Extract Cannabis Oil product, then there is potently high risk of an explosion and fire, if the process is not adequately ventilated and a fire suppression system installed prevent the fire from spreading to adjacent dwelling [sic]. The area is without fire hydrants." STAFF COMMENT: Staff notes that the subject property is within the boundaries of the Redmond Fire and Rescue District. Notice of the application was supplied to Redmond Fire and Rescue, who provided comments related to fire safety codes and specific fire suppression standards which must be applied to the marijuana production and processing facilities. Additionally, as part of the annual reporting, staff will conduct a site visit to ensure that the marijuana production facility meets the requirements and conditions of approval, including fire, health, safety, waste water, and building codes and laws. A condition of approval was included in the decision to ensure that these requirements will be met. Section 18.124.060. Approval Criteria Approval of a site plan shall be based on the following criteria: K. Transportation access to the site shall be adequate for the use. 1. Where applicable, issues including, but not limited to, sight distance, turn and acceleration/deceleration lanes, right-of-way, roadway surfacing and widening, and bicycle and pedestrian connections, shall be identified. 247-18-000412-A Page 5 of 7 2. Mitigation for transportation -related impacts shall be required. 3. Mitigation shall meet applicable County standards in DCC 17.16 and DCC 17.48, applicable Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) mobility and access standards, and applicable American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards. OBJECTION: The Notice of Appeal states: "The commercial truck and employee vehicle traffic at the site will increase to a level not intended for rural land use standards." STAFF COMMENT: Staff notes that the applicant submitted a supplemental Site Traffic Report (STR) from a certified engineer which was reviewed by the Deschutes County Transportation Planner. In evaluating the report, no transportation infrastructure deficiencies or improvements were identified. Additionally, staff notes that System Development Charges (SDCs) have been levied on the subject property to mitigate potential traffic and transportation related impacts. The following comment from the County Transportation Planner highlights the SDCs in regards to the proposed development: "Board Resolution 2013-020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The Board in a policy decision in early 2017 decided to use the ITE rate for Warehouse (LU 150) for marijuana production and Manufacturing (LU 140) for processing. The County has not yet updated its trip generation rates to reflect the 10th edition of the ITE manual. The County's adopted rates are from the 9th edition, hence the discrepancy between the County's SDC rate and the applicant's STR for p.m. peak hour trips. The SDC for growing would be 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips (20.832 X 0.32) for an SDC of $26,378 ($3,937 X 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be 0.9 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for an SDC of $3,543 (0.9 X $3,937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $29,921 ($26,378 + $3,543). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final,."

Public Agency Comments: As the applicant submitted the marijuana production and marijuana processing applications separately, the Planning Division mailed two (2) Notice of Applications and received comments from the following agencies: Central Oreaon Irrigation District: COID FACILITIES: 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 2 • COID has three canals on subject's property o The PBC canal has a 100' canal right of way along with a road right of way of 20' on the east of canal o The A-21 canal has a right of way of 20' along with a road right of way of 20' on the east side of the canal o A-21-2 has a 20' canal right of way • No permanent structures are allowed within COID's right of way • A crossing license is required to cross a COID facility. COID WATER RIGHTS: • Subject's property has 51.0 acres of COID water rights • Please contact COID concerning use of water rights • COID requests a site plan COID GUIDELINE STATEMENT • Review the following statement COID response to Community Development Notice for Proposed Marijuana Production: Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) serves this property with 51.0 acres of irrigation water during the irrigation season of April 1st through October 31st at a rate of up to 6 gallons per minute per acre. This water cannot be used for irrigation during the winter months. An additional source (not COID) of water is necessary to irrigate between November 1st and March 31st. If the recreational marijuana production facility is a greenhouse or other structure proposed to be built on top of the COID water right, land -user must allow COID annual access to the structure to document beneficial use of the water right. Structures on top of a water right for any purpose other than growing plants is not allowed. Applicant should contact COID to determine status of water rights prior to construction of production facility. Plot Plan is required to assist COID in determining if the proposed structure will be located on the water right or if a water transfer application is needed to transfer water to it. [STAFF COMMENT]: COID also submitted a color map depicting irrigated lands on the subject property (see Attachment A). Central Electric Cooperative: CEC requests the applicants apply for a new electrical service by calling Bob Fowler at 541-312- 7778 and provide electrical load and demand requirements for this activity's. CEC will determine if capacity is available, Deschutes County Building Division: The Deschutes County Building Safety Divisions code required Access, Egress, Setback, Fire & Life Safety Fire Fighting Water Supplies, etc. will be specifically addressed during the plan review process for any proposed structures and occupancies. All Building Code required items will be addressed, when a specific structure, occupancy, and type of construction is proposed and submitted for plan review. Deschutes County Senior Transportation Planner. Peter Russell: I have reviewed the transmittal materials for 247-17-000905 for a marijuana production (growing) and processing operation in the Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) and Airport Safety (AS) zones at 21330 Young Avenue, aka 16-12-11, Tax Lot 800. The proposal will establish four (4) new buildings of 5,964 square feet each and convert an 1,200 -square -foot building to an accessory operations 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP building. As I understand it, this application supplants 247 -17 -000 -939 -AD, which is on the same property. Deschutes County Code (DCC) at 18.116.330(8)(8) only requires proof of legal direct access to the property or access from a private easement for a grow of more than 5,000 square feet of mature canopy. The proposal is for 9,800 square feet of mature canopy, so the access requirement does apply. The traffic study requirements of DCC 18.116.310 are applicable for this marijuana production and processing operation as the application is going through site plan review and thus does need to show compliance with DCC 18.124.080(J), which references the County's traffic study requirements described below. The most recent edition of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook does not contain a category for marijuana production. In consultation with the Road Department Director and Planning staff, the County has determined the best analog use is Warehouse (Land Use 150) based on the storage requirements and employees of this activity. Warehouse generates daily trips at a rate of 3.56 trips per 1,000 square feet. The application indicates the site will use 23,856 square - feet of greenhouses for cannabis production (5,964 X 4). The resulting trip rate would be 85 daily trips (3.56 X 23.856). For cannabis processing, the County uses the ITE code for Manufacturing (Land Use 140), which has a daily trip rate of 3.82 trips per 1,000 square feet. The 1,200 -square - foot greenhouse will produce 4.6 daily trips (3.82 X 1.2). The combined production and processing will generate 89.6 daily trips (85 + 4.6). Deschutes County Code (DCC) at 18.116.310(C)(3)(b) states a traffic analysis is needed if there are between 50 and 200 new weekday trips generated from the use. The proposed land use will meet this minimum threshold for additional traffic analysis. The traffic analysis is based on p.m. peak hour trips. Warehouse generates at 0.32 trips per 1,000 square feet, which results in 7.6 p.m. peak hour trips (23.856 X 0.32) for production. Light Industrial generates 0.73 p.m. peak hour trips per 1,000 square feet, which results in 0.88 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for processing. The total p.m. peak hour trips for this use would be 8.48 p.m. peak hour trips (7.6 + 0.88). If the property does not already have one, the applicant should be required to obtain a driveway permit for this site. The property lies approximately 24,866 feet to the south-southwest of the Redmond Airport. The proposed buildings are 16 feet in height and the zoning allows 30 feet; this means no buildings will penetrate any imaginary surfaces related to the Redmond Airport. Board Resolution 2013-020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The ITE rates quoted above are used to determine the SDC. The SDC for growing would be $29,921 ($3,937 X 7.6 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be $3,465 (0.88 X $3,937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $33,386 ($29,921 + $3,465). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final. Site Traffic Report Evaluation: On December 26th, 2017 the applicant submitted a supplemental Site Traffic Report (STR) from a certified engineer to more thoroughly evaluate the traffic impacts and trip generation rate associated with the proposed development. In response to the STR, the County's Senior Transportation Planner provided the following: I have reviewed the requested Site Traffic Report (STR) for 17-940-SP/939-AD, which is a proposed marijuana production (growing) and processing operation in the Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) and 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 4 Airport Safety (AS) zones at 21330 Young Avenue, aka 16-12-11, Tax Lot 800. According to the STR, the operation will result in 20,832 square feet of marijuana production and convert a 1,200 - square -foot building to an accessory operations building for processing. I agree with the STR's methodologies, assumptions, and recommendations. If the property does not already have one, the applicant should be required to obtain a driveway permit for this site to conform with DCC 17.48.210(A). The property lies approximately 24,866 feet to the south-southwest of the Redmond Airport. The proposed buildings are 16 feet in height and the zoning allows 30 feet; this means no buildings will penetrate any imaginary surfaces related to the Redmond Airport. Board Resolution 2013-020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The Board in a policy decision in early 2017 decided to use the ITE rate for Warehouse (LU 150) for marijuana production and Manufacturing (LU 140) for processing. The County has not yet updated its trip generation rates to reflect the 10th edition of the 1 TE manual. The County's adopted rates are from the 9th edition, hence the discrepancy between the County's SDC rate and the applicant's STR for p.m. peak hour trips. The SDC for growing would be 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips (20.832 X 0.32) for an SDC of $26,378 ($3,937 X 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be 0.9 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for an SDC of $3, 543 (0.9 X $3, 937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $29,921 ($26,378 + $3,543). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final. Oreaon Department of Aariculture: The application does not state what type of marijuana processing will occur. Please be advised that marijuana processing facilities that produce food/beverage items and/or ingredients/extracts that can be consumed are subject to licensing and inspection by Oregon Dept. of Agriculture's Food Safety Program.

The following agencies either had no comment or did not respond to the notice: Deschutes County Assessor, Deschutes County Environmental Soils Division, and Deschutes County Road Department. G. Public Comments: The Planning Division mailed written notices of these actions to property owners within 750 feet of the subject property on November 15th and November 219t, 2017, respectively. The following concerns were expressed in three comment letters which staff received from the public. All three of the letters opposed the subject proposal, with minor comments related generally to the County's marijuana regulations. In summary, staff has attempted to capture most impacts, comments, requests, and concerns identified by the public in written comments received prior to the date of this decision: 1. General concerns regarding the subject proposal's impacts, including: • Odor • Noise • Water use • Access • Traffic 2. Owner -occupied versus employee -occupied use of the subject property for industrial farming operations. 3. Concerns regarding water impacts to shared wells on the subject property. 4. General concerns regarding impacts from other existing marijuana grows, including: • Odor • Water use • Traffic 5. Lowered property values related to marijuana production. 6. Removal of marijuana production facilities and structures after the use has ceased on site. 7. Insufficient separation distances between marijuana production facilities and neighboring residences. 8. Water table dropping due to marijuana producers nearby. 9. Lack of air quality standards for marijuana production from federal agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) The Deschutes County Code (DCC) would only allow the Planning Division (and any other County hearings body) to approve or deny this application based on the Applicable Criteria addressed in Section III below. In regards to the other comments received, the applicant has requested approval of marijuana production and processing in the Exclusive Farm Use Zone, which is a use permitted outright in DCC 18.16.020(S), and subject to the special provisions of DCC 18.16.025(1) and DCC 18.116.330. The County Commissioners constitute the legislative branch of Deschutes County government and enact applicable law via ordinances, which then are codified in the Deschutes County Code. Staff only has the authority to enforce the law as it is currently written. Staff cannot revisit the propriety of the Commissioners' decision to adopt ordinances that allow marijuana production facilities in the EFU zone as an outright permitted use. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 8 H. Review Period: The applications for 17 -905 -AD and 17-938-LR/17-939-AD/17-940-SP were submitted on November 3rd and November 21st, 2017, respectively. The application for 17 -905 -AD was deemed incomplete on November 21th, 2017. The applicant submitted supplemental materials and the application was deemed complete on November 27th, 2017. Additionally, on November 27th, 2017, the applicant requested the clock for file 17 -905 -AD be tolled until December 18th, 2017. Subsequently, on December 19th, 2017, the applicant requested that file 17 -905 -AD be placed on hold until files 17-938-LR/17-939-AD/17-940-SP were deemed complete. The application for 17-938-LR/17-939-AD/17-940-SP was deemed incomplete on December 19th, 2017. The applicant submitted supplemental materials and the application for 17-938-LR/17-939- AD/17-940-SP was accepted and deemed complete on December 26th, 2017. As a result of the above actions, day 1 of the 150 -day land use clock would have begun on December 27th, 2017 for all of the subject applications. However, as noted below, the applicant tolled the clock on December 27th to address a code enforcement issue. The following timeline addresses additional review actions for the subject applications: • December 27t11, 2017: the applicant requested the clock be tolled on all the subject applications until a pending code enforcement issue at the subject property was resolved. • January 4th, 2018: the applicant submitted for building permit 18 -068 -AGE, which resolved pending code enforcement issues. At this time, the applicant also requested processing to continue on the subject land use applications.

III. FINDINGS Title 22 Deschutes County Development Procedures Ordinance A. CHAPTER 18.04. TITLE, PURPOSE, AND DEFINITIONS "Lot of Record" means: A. A lot or parcel at least 5,000 square feet in area and at least 50 feet wide, which conformed to all zoning and subdivision or partition requirements, if any, in effect on the date the lot or parcel was created, and which was created by any of the following means: 1. By partitioning land as defined in ORS 92; 2. By a subdivision plat, as defined in ORS 92, filed with the Deschutes County Surveyor and recorded with the Deschutes County Clerk; 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 9 3. By deed or contract, dated and signed by the parties to the transaction, containing a separate legal description of the lot or parcel, and recorded in Deschutes County if recording of the instrument was required on the date of the conveyance. If such instrument contains more than one legal description, only one lot of record shall be recognized unless the legal descriptions describe lots subject to a recorded subdivision or town plat; 4. By a town plat filed with the Deschutes County Clerk and recorded in the Deschutes County Record of Plats; or 5. By the subdividing or partitioning of adjacent or surrounding land, leaving a remainder lot or parcel. B. Notwithstanding subsection (A), a lot or parcel validated pursuant to ORS 92.176 shall be recognized as a lot of record. C. The following shall not be deemed to be a lot of record: 1. A lot or parcel created solely by a tax lot segregation because of an assessor's roll change or for the convenience of the assessor. 2. A lot or parcel created by an intervening section or township line or right of way. 3. A lot or parcel created by an unrecorded subdivision, unless the lot or parcel was conveyed subject to DCC 18.04.030(B). 4. A parcel created by the foreclosure of a security interest. For the purposes of DCC Title 18, "lot" or "parcel" means a lot of record as defined DCC18.04.030. FINDING: The subject property, Tax Lot 800 contains 62.61 acres and is approximately 250 -feet wide at the narrowest point. The southern 40 acres of the subject property was first conveyed as a separate parcel via Quitclaim Deed dated August 5th, 1941 recorded in Volume 126, Page 640, Deschutes County Book of Records. Subsequently, one adjacent property to the southwest of the subject property was conveyed as a separate parcel via Quitclaim Deed dated November 16th, 1953 recorded in Volume 105, Page 474, Deschutes County Book of Records. Subsequently, three properties, two which two of which encompass the subject property, were described separately in a single Warranty Deed dated June 24th, 1957 recorded in Volume 116, Page 456, Deschutes County Book of Records. Furthermore, four properties, two of which encompass the subject property, were described separately in a single Bargain and Sale Deed dated April 29th, 1964 recorded in Volume 139, Page 72, Deschutes County Book of Records. Regarding multiple property conveyances and consolidations within a single deed, staff cites Land Use Board of Appeals file no. 2016-056, which found: "Returning to the more familiar realm of land use law, the board of county commissioners found that under the DCC, consolidation of discrete lots or parcel can be accomplished only by means of a county process that requires county land use approval. Petitioner offers no focused challenge to that understanding of the DCC, and provides no basis for LUBA to reject that interpretation, under the deferential standard of review at ORS 197.829(1) that LUBA must apply to a governing body's interpretation of local land use legislation. The 1988 quitclaim deed, whatever else it accomplished, did not serve as a surrogate for any county process, with county approval, which could have led to the consolidation of existing parcels." Staff finds that the above decision applies to the current Lot of Record analysis and that the 1957 and 1964 deeds did not serve to consolidate the referenced properties therein. Additionally, staff notes that the 1957 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 10 deed established the first conveyance of the northern 23.75 acres of the subject property as a separate parcel. Finally, another property to the southeast of the subject property was conveyed as a separate parcel via Bargain and Sale Deed dated October 23rd, 1975 recorded in Volume 225, Page 423, Deschutes County Book of Records. This property was also included in the 1957 and 1964 deeds which conveyed the two tracts comprising the subject property. At the time of these conveyances, no zoning requirements applied to the subject properties. The net result of these actions is the creation of two separate parcels comprising the current subject property via deed conveyance. Therefore, Tax Lot 800 is recognized as two (2) legal lots of record (see figure below). 2-4 21330 Young Ave Legal Lot #2 t"1 21330 Young Ave Legal Lot #1 rf .” / / !, I 11.t.,15: %'t/ '...* ., ....

The County shall not approve any division of a lot or parcel that separates a processing facility or establishment from the farm operation on which it is located. FINDING: No division of a lot or parcel is proposed. L. Marijuana processing, subject to the applicable provisions of DCC 18.16.025(1) and 18.116.330. FINDING: The applicant is proposing Marijuana Processing on the subject property, a use permitted subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of DCC 18.16.025(1), 18.116.330, additional sections of 18.16 identified below, and relevant sections 18.124. Compliance with these provisions is addressed in this decision. 3. 18.16.060. Dimensional Standards. E. Building height. No building or structure shall be erected or enlarged to exceed 30 feet in height, except as allowed under DCC 18.120.040. FINDING: The proposed structures are all approximately 16 feet in height. The existing structure that is proposed to be converted is 12 feet in height. This criterion will be met. 4. Section 18.16.070. Yards. A. The front yard shall be a minimum of: 40 feet from a property line fronting on a local street, 60 feet from a property line fronting on a collector street, and 100 feet from a property line fronting on an arterial street. B. Each side yard shall be a minimum of 25 feet, except that for a nonfarm dwelling proposed on property with side yards adjacent to property currently employed in farm use, and receiving special assessment for farm use, the side yard shall be a minimum of 100 feet. C. Rear yards shall be a minimum of 25 feet, except that for a nonfarm dwelling proposed on property with a rear yard adjacent to property currently employed in farm use, and receiving special assessment for farm use, the rear yard shall be a minimum of 100 feet. D. In addition to the setbacks set forth herein, any greater setbacks required by applicable building or structural codes adopted by the State of Oregon and/or the County under DCC 15.04 shall be met. FINDING: The subject property consists of two (2) legal lots, which front on and obtain access from Young Ave. The southern property line is the front lot line. Young Avenue is a county -maintained rural local road and the required front yard setback is 40 feet. The proposal is to construct four (4) new structures for marijuana production on the southern legal lot, approximately 50 feet east of the existing agricultural development on site. Additionally, the existing 1,200 -square -foot, northern -most agricultural building on site will be converted to accommodate the proposed marijuana processing facility. The submitted plot plan indicates the structures will be a minimum of 225 feet from the southern front property line. The proposal is not for a non-farm dwelling, therefore, the required side and rear yard setbacks are 25 feet. The submitted plot plan indicates an eastern side yard setback minimum of 460 feet, a western side yard setback minimum 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 13 of 365 feet, and a northern rear yard setback of over 900 feet. The required yard setbacks of subsections A, B, and C will be met. Any greater setbacks required by applicable building or structural codes will be addressed during building permit review. B. CHAPTER 18.80. AIRPORT SAFETY COMBINING ZONE 1. Section 18.80.020. Application of Provisions. The provisions of DCC 18.80.020 shall only apply to unincorporated areas located under airport imaginary surfaces and zones, including approach surfaces, transitional surfaces, horizontal surfaces, conical surfaces and runway protection zones. While DCC 18.80 identifies dimensions for the entire imaginary surface and zone, parts of the surfaces and/or zones do not apply within the Redmond, Bend or Sisters Urban Growth Boundaries. The Redmond Airport is owned and operated by the City of Redmond, and located wholly within the Redmond City Limits. Imaginary surface dimensions vary for each airport covered by DCC 18.80.020. Based on the classification of each individual airport, only those portions (of the AS Zone) that overlay existing County zones are relevant. Public use airports covered by DCC 18.80.020 include Redmond Municipal, Bend Municipal, Sunriver and Sisters Eagle Air. Although it is a public -use airport, due to its size and other factors, the County treats land uses surrounding the Sisters Eagle Air Airport based on the ORS 836.608 requirements for private -use airports. The Oregon Department of Aviation is still studying what land use requirements will ultimately be applied to Sisters. However, contrary to the requirements of ORS 836.608, as will all public -use airports, federal law requires that the FAA Part 77 surfaces must be applied. The private -use airports covered by DCC 18.80.020 include Cline Falls Airpark and Juniper Airpark. FINDING: The subject property lies within the approach surface of the Redmond Municipal Airport. Therefore, the provisions of this chapter apply. 2. Section 18.80.028. Height Limitations. All uses permitted by the underlying zone shall comply with the height limitations in DCC 18.80.028. When height limitations of the underlying zone are more restrictive than those of this overlay zone, the underlying zone height limitations shall control. [ORS 836.619; OAR 660-013-0070] A. Except as provided in DCC 18.80.028(B) and (C), no structure or tree, plant or other object of natural growth shall penetrate an airport imaginary surface. [ORS 836.619; OAR 660-013-0070(1)] FINDING: The subject property is located under the approach surface of the Redmond Airport. The proposed marijuana production and processing buildings will have a maximum elevation of 3,190 feet above sea level. Per DCC 18.80.022, the approach surface for the Redmond Airport above the subject property has an approximate elevation of 3,712 feet. Therefore, staff finds the proposed development will not penetrate the imaginary surfaces. This criterion will be met. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 14 Section 18.80.044. Land Use Compatibility. B. Outdoor lighting. No new or expanded industrial, commercial or recreational use shall project lighting directly onto an existing runway or taxiway or into existing airport approach surfaces except where necessary for safe and convenient air travel. Lighting for these uses shall incorporate shielding in their designs to reflect light away from airport approach surfaces. No use shall imitate airport lighting or impede the ability of pilots to distinguish between airport lighting and other lighting. FINDING: The applicant does not propose any outdoor lighting with the current development. This criterion does not apply. C. Glare. No glare producing material, including but not limited to unpainted metal or reflective glass, shall be used on the exterior of structures located within an approach surface or on nearby lands where glare could impede a pilot's vision. FINDING: The application materials did not indicate the proposed building materials. To ensure that compliance is maintained, the following condition of approval has been added. Airport Safety Glare: No glare producing material, including but not limited to unpainted metal or reflective glass, shall be used on the exterior of the proposed structures. D. Industrial emissions. No new industrial, mining or similar use, or expansion of an existing industrial, mining or similar use, shall, as part of its regular operations, cause emissions of smoke, dust or steam that could obscure visibility within airport approach surfaces, except upon demonstration, supported by substantial evidence, that mitigation measures imposed as approval conditions will reduce the potential for safety risk or incompatibility with airport operations to an insignificant level. The review authority shall impose such conditions as necessary to ensure that the use does not obscure visibility. FINDING: The proposed industrial use (marijuana processing) will not cause emissions of smoke, dust, or steam that could obscure visibility within the airport approach surface for the Redmond Municipal Airport. This criterion will be met. F. Limitations and Restrictions on Allowed Uses in the RPZ, Approach Surface, and Airport Direct and Secondary Impact Areas. For the Redmond, Bend, Sunriver, and Sisters airports, the land uses identified in DCC 18.80 Table 1, and their accessory uses, are permitted, permitted under limited circumstances, or prohibited in the manner therein described. In the event of conflict with the underlying zone, the more restrictive provisions shall control. As used in DCC 18.80.044, a limited use means a use that is allowed subject to special standards specific to that use. FINDING: The subject property is not within the RPZ for the Redmond Municipal Airport. This criterion does not apply. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 15 4. Section 18.80.050. Uses Permitted Outriaht. Any uses permitted outright in the underlying zone with which the AS Zone is combined shall be allowed except as provided in DCC 18.80.044. FINDING: The applicant is proposing marijuana production and processing in the EFU Zone. The proposed marijuana production is permitted outright in the EFU Zone subject to the provisions of DCC 18.116.330. Additionally, the proposed marijuana processing is permitted subject to compliance with the applicable provisions of DCC 18.16.025(1), 18.116, and relevant sections of 18.124. Compliance with these provisions is addressed in this decision. Therefore, the proposed uses are allowed outright in the AS Combining Zone, C. Chapter 18.116, Supplementary Provisions 1. Section 18.116.020. Clear Vision Areas. A. In all zones, a clear vision area shall be maintained on the corners of all property at the intersection of two streets or a street and a railroad. A clear vision area shall contain no planting, fence, wall, structure, or temporary or permanent obstruction exceeding three and one-half feet in height, measured from the top of the curb or, where no curb exists, from the established street centerline grade, except that trees exceeding this height may be located in this area provided all branches and foliage are removed to a height of eight feet above the grade. B. A clear vision area shall consist of a triangular area on the corner of a lot at the intersection of two streets or a street and a railroad. Two sides of the triangle are sections of the lot lines adjoining the street or railroad measured from the corner to a distance specified in DCC 18.116.020(B)(1) and (2). Where lot lines have rounded corners, the specified distance is measured from a point determined by the extension of the lot lines to a point of intersection. The third side of the triangle is the line connecting the ends of the measured sections of the street lot lines. The following measurements shall establish clear vision areas within the County: 1. In an agricultural, forestry or industrial zone, the minimum distance shall be 30 feet or at intersections including an alley, 10 feet. 2. In all other zones, the minimum distance shall be in relationship to street and road right of way widths as follows: Right -of -Way Width 80 feet or more 60 feet 50 feet and less Clear Vision 20 feet 30 feet 40 feet FINDING: The subject property is not located at the intersection of two streets or a street and a railroad. This criterion does not apply. 2. Section 18.116.030. Off -Street Parkina and Loadina. A. Compliance. No building or other permit shall be issued until plans and evidence are presented to show how the off-street parking and loading requirements are to be met and that property is and will be available for exclusive use as off-street parking and loading. The subsequent use of the property for which the permit is issued shall be conditional upon the 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 16 unqualified continuance and availability of the amount of parking and loading space required by DCC Title 18. B. Off -Street Loading. Every use for which a building is erected or structurally altered to the extent of increasing the floor area to equal a minimum floor area required to provide loading space and which will require the receipt or distribution of materials or merchandise by truck or similar vehicle, shall provide off-street loading space on the basis of minimum requirements as follows: 1. Commercial, industrial and public utility uses which have a gross floor area of 5,000 square feet or more shall provide truck loading or unloading berths subject to the following table: Sq. Ft. of Floor Area No. of Berths Required 1 Less than 5,000 1 5,000-30,000 30,000-100,000 100,000 and Over 0 1 2 3 2. Restaurants, office buildings, hotels, motels, hospitals and institutions, schools and colleges, public buildings, recreation or entertainment facilities and any similar use which has a gross floor area of 30,000 square feet or more shall provide off-street truck loading or unloading berths subject to the following table: FINDING: Staff identifies marijuana processing in an applicant's proposal will not will be met. Sq. Ft. of Floor Area No. of Berths Required 1 Less than 30,000 1 0 1 30,000-100,000 j 1 1 100,000 and Over 1 2 A loading berth shall contain space 10 feet wide, 35 feet long and have a height clearance of 14 feet. Where the vehicles generally used for loading exceed these dimensions, the required length of these berths shall be increased. the processing of marijuana as an industrial use. The applicant proposes existing 1,200 -square -foot agricultural building site. Per the table above, the meet the minimum floor area threshold requiring a loading berth. These criteria 4. If loading space has been provided in connection with an existing use or is added to an existing use, the loading space shall not be eliminated if elimination would result in less space than is required to adequately handle the needs of the particular use. FINDING: No elimination of a loading space is proposed. 5. Off-street parking areas used to fulfill the requirements of DCC Title 18 shall not be used for loading and unloading operations except during periods of the day when not required to take care of parking needs. FINDING: The following condition of approval has been added to ensure compliance. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 17 Off -Street Parking: Any off-street parking areas used to fulfill the requirements of DCC Title 18 shall not be used for loading and unloading operations except during periods of the day when not required to take care of parking needs. C. Off -Street Parking. Off-street parking spaces shall be provided and maintained as set forth in DCC 18.116.030 for all uses in all zoning districts. Such off-street parking spaces shall be provided at the time a new building is hereafter erected or enlarged or the use of a building existing on the effective date of DCC Title 18 is changed. D. Number of Spaces Required. Off-street parking shall be provided as follows: 7. Industrial. Use Manufacturing establishment Storage warehouse, wholesale establishment, rail or trucking freight terminal Requirements 1 space per employee on the largest working shift 1 space per 2,000 sq, ft. of floor area FINDING: The applicant proposes marijuana processing in an existing 1,200 -square -foot agricultural building. Staff finds the proposed processing operations are considered an industrial use requiring 1 space per employee on the largest working shift, as detailed in the table above. The applicant provides the following information related the largest shift sizes proposed on site: "..assuming the maximum seasonal employee count is 15, with no more than 10 on shift, 10 spaces are required. Therefore the required number of parking spaces for the production and processing use has been satisfied as 10 standard parking spaces are shown on the submitted site plan." Additionally, the existing single family dwelling on site is served by two parking spaces within a carport directly adjacent to the dwelling. Staff finds that the applicant's proposal is sufficient to meet the above criteria. To ensure that compliance is maintained, the following condition of approval has been added Maximum Shift Size for the Proposed Use: The maximum number of employees allowed on site to support the proposed marijuana production and processing use shall not exceed 10 persons on any given shift. E. General Provisions. Off -Street Parking. 1. More Than One Use on One or More Parcels. In the event several uses occupy a single structure or parcel of land, the total requirement for off- street parking shall be the sum of requirements of the several uses computed separately. FINDING: The existing dwelling does not have parking requirements. The only other use proposed on site is marijuana production, which also does not have parking requirements. Additionally, no other uses or businesses will be sharing the proposed off-street parking spaces. Therefore, these criteria are not applicable. 2. Joint Use of Facilities. The off-street parking requirements of two or more uses, structures or parcels of land may be satisfied by the same parking or loading space used jointly to the extent that it can be shown 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 18 by the owners or operators of the uses, structures or parcels that their operations and parking needs do not overlap at any point of time. If the uses, structures or parcels are under separate ownership, the right to joint use of the parking space must be evidence by a deed, lease, contract or other appropriate written document to establish the joint use. FINDING: As noted above, no existing or proposed uses other than the processing facility, have parking requirements. Therefore, this criterion is not applicable 3. Location of Parking Facilities. Off-street parking spaces for dwellings shall be located on the same lot with the dwelling. Other required parking spaces shall be located on the same parcel or another parcel not farther than 500 feet from the building or use they are intended to serve, measured in a straight line from the building in a commercial or industrial zone. Such parking shall be located in a safe and functional manner as determined during site plan approval. The burden of proving the existence of such off -premise parking arrangements rests upon the applicant. FINDING: All required parking spaces are located on the same parcel and are located no more than 500 feet from the proposed processing area on site. 4. Use of Parking Facilities. Required parking space shall be available for the parking of operable passenger automobiles of residents, customers, patrons and employees only and shall not be used for the storage of vehicles or materials or for the parking of trucks used in conducting the business or used in conducting the business or use. FINDING: A condition of approval has been added to ensure compliance. 5. Parking, Front Yard. Required parking and loading spaces for multi- family dwellings or commercial and industrial uses shall not be located in a required front yard, except in the Sunriver UUC Business Park (BP) District and the La Pine UUC Business Park (LPBP) District and the LaPine UUC Industrial District (LPI), but such space may be located within a required side or rear yard. FINDING: No parking is proposed in a required front yard. 6. On -Street Parking Credit. Notwithstanding DCC 18.116.030(G)(2), within commercial zones in the La Pine Planning Area and the Terrebonne and Tumalo unincorporated communities, the amount of required off-street parking can be reduced by one off-street parking space for every allowed on -street parking space adjacent to a property up to 30% of the required off-street parking. On -street parking shall follow the established configurations in the parking design standards under DCC 18.116.030 Table 1. To be considered for the parking credit, the proposed parking surface, along the street frontage under review, must have a defined curb line and improved as required under DCC 17.48, with existing pavement, or an engineered gravel surface. For purposes of establishing credit, the following constitutes an on -street parking space: a. Parallel parking (0 degree), each 20 feet of uninterrupted curb; b. Diagonal parking (60 degree), each with 11 feet of curb; 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 19 c. Perpendicular parking (90 degree), each with 10 feet of curb; d. Curb space must be connected to the lot that contains the use; e. Parking spaces that would not obstruct a required clear vision area, nor any other parking that violates any law or street standard; and f On -street parking spaces credited for a specific use may not be used exclusively by that use, but shall be available for general public use at all times. No signs or actions limiting general public use of on -street spaces are permitted. FINDING: No on -street parking credit under this section is proposed. F. Development and Maintenance Standards for Off -Street Parking Areas. Every parcel of land hereafter used as a public or private parking area, including commercial parking lots, shall be developed as follows: 1. Except for parking to serve residential uses, an off-street parking area for more than five vehicles shall be effectively screened by a sight obscuring fence when adjacent to residential uses, unless effectively screened or buffered by landscaping or structures. FINDING: The applicant proposes a 10 -vehicle parking area. Adjacent residential uses lie approximately 475 feet southwest, 1,100 feet west, and 1,800 feet southeast of the proposed marijuana processing on the subject property. The applicant proposes a 5 -foot wide landscaping strip consisting of trees and shrubs along the western edge of the parking area. Additionally, several existing agricultural buildings, the single family dwelling onsite, and existing vegetation adjacent to the residence provide screening to the south and south east of the proposed parking area. These features will provide sufficient buffering to the adjacent residential uses. This criterion will be met. 2. Any lighting used to illuminate off-street parking areas shall be so arranged that it will not project light rays directly upon any adjoining property in a residential zone. FINDING: The applicant does not propose outdoor lighting to illuminate the off-street parking area. This criterion does not apply. 3. Groups of more than two parking spaces shall be located and designed to prevent the need to back vehicles into a street or right of way other than an alley.

The number of service drives shall be limited to the minimum that will accommodate and serve the traffic anticipated. Service drives shall be clearly and permanently marked and defined through the use of rails, fences, walls or other barriers or markers. Service drives to drive in establishments shall be designed to avoid backing movements or other maneuvering within a street other than an alley. FINDING: The applicant proposes to use the existing single drive approach from Young Avenue. Staff finds the existing access drive will provide adequate safety to any pedestrians on site, while also maximizing vehicular traffic access. The access drive is defined by existing agricultural structures, the single family dwelling, and fencing on the western boundary. There are no proposed pedestrian crosswalks through the parking area as pedestrian access to the remaining portions of the property is provided north and east of the proposed parking site. As no additional traffic access points are proposed, staff finds the minimum number which can accommodate the anticipated need has been met. 7. Service drives shall have a minimum vision clearance area formed by the intersection of the driveway centerline, the street right of way line and a straight line joining said lines through points 30 feet from their intersection. FINDING: Through review of the submitted site plan, staff finds that the existing driveway for the subject property has a minimum clear vision area exceeding 30 feet from the intersection of the driveway centerline and the right of way for Young Avenue. This criterion will be met. 8. Parking spaces along the outer boundaries of a parking area shall be contained by a curb or bumper rail placed to prevent a motor vehicle from extending over an adjacent property line or a street right of way. FINDING: The applicant's proposed parking area is not adjacent to the subject property lines or a street right of way. This criterion does not apply. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 21 G. Off -Street Parking Lot Design. All off-street parking lots shall be designed subject to County standards for stalls and aisles as set forth in the following drawings and table: (SEE TABLE 1 AT END OF CHAPTER 18.116) 1. For one row of stalls use "C" + "D" as minimum bay width. 2. Public alley width may be included as part of dimension "D," but all parking stalls must be on private property, off the public right of way. 3. For estimating available parking area, use 300-325 square feet per vehicle for stall, aisle and access areas. 4. For large parking lots exceeding 20 stalls, alternate rows may be designed for compact cars provided that the compact stalls do not exceed 30 percent of the total required stalls. A compact stall shall be eight feet in width and 17 feet in length with appropriate aisle width. FINDING: The applicant's 10 proposed parking spaces will each be 9 -feet wide, 20 -feet deep, and will be accessed via a 24 -foot access aisle. Staff finds that these proposed dimensions will be sufficient to meet the standards addressed in DCC 18.116.030(g)(1). This criterion will be met. 3. Section 18.116.031. Bicycle Parking. New development and any construction, renovation or alteration of an existing use requiring a site plan review under DCC Title 18 for which planning approval is applied for after the effective date of Ordinance 93-005 shall comply with the provisions of DCC 18.116.031. A. Number and Type of Bicycle Parking Spaces Required. 1. General Minimum Standard. c.

The proposed use generates less than 50 vehicle trips per day. iii. No existing buildings on the site will accommodate bicycle parking and no new buildings are proposed. iv. The size, weight, or dimensions of the goods sold at the site makes transporting them by bicycle impractical or unlikely. v. The use of the site requires equipment that makes it unlikely that a bicycle would be used to access the site. Representative examples would include, but not be limited to, paintball parks, golf courses, shooting ranges, etc. FINDING: Staff finds that the applicant's proposal is outside an unincorporated community, in a location where bicycle access by employees is unlikely and the proposed facility will not be accessible to the general public or customers. Additionally, staff notes the applicant submitted a supplementary Site Traffic Report which found that the proposed uses will generate less than 50 vehicle trips per day. For these reasons, bicycle parking is not required. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 22 4. Section 18.116.035. Bicycle Commuter Facilities. A.

' FINDING: The applicant submitted a site-specific report prepared by Oregon -licensed Mechanical Engineer Rob James, PE of ColeBreit Engineering. The report states the following in regards to the noise control systems proposed for the subject property: Based on a TRANE 4TWA4 5 -ton heat pump, the sound power level of each outdoor unit is 74 dBA. By staggering the 12 -on, 12 -off operation schedule of these structures, 26 of these units will be running simultaneously, 13 on each side. The calculated sound pressure level of 26 units running simultaneously is 88 dBA. Under the assumptions of an 88 dBA point source of noise from the closest point of the structure to each property line, and a ground factor of 1 due to sand and light vegetation, the table below shows approximate sound pressures at each property line as calculated with the MAS Environmental Sound Calculator, with no sound mitigation. Property Line South West North East Distance from Structures 225' 635' 1,000' 460' Sound Pressure at Property Line (dBA) 39.0 29.1 24.6 32.2 Sound Barrier Required As Shown None None As Shown 1 Additionally, the east and west property lines will be protected by the buildings themselves acting as soundbarriers, lowering sound pressures further. A sound barrier 9.5' tall, spanning between the structures with no gaps will be required as follows: 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 28 --� EXISTING BUILDINGS 225' Proposed Equiprnen Locations 460 Proposed Sound Barriers With this sound barrier in place, the calculated sound pressure at the south property line drops to 29.2 dBA. By considering the structures themselves as sound barriers, the calculated sound pressure at the east line drops to 16.5 dBA. Staff finds these criteria will be met when the applicants install the mechanical equipment as specified in the mechanical engineer's report, and adds the following condition to ensure ongoing compliance with the noise requirements of this section. Noise: Sustained noise from mechanical equipment used for heating, ventilation, air conditioning, odor control, fans and similar functions shall not exceed 30 dB(A) measured at any property line between 10:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. the following day. 12.

Annual Reporting: The annual reporting requirements of DCC 18.116.330(D) shall be met. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 33 D. Chapter 18.124, Site Plan Review 1. Section 18.124.030. Approval Reauired. 4. No building, grading, parking, land use, sign or other required permit shall be issued for a use subject to DCC 18.124.030, nor shall such a use be commenced, enlarged, altered or changed until a final site plan is approved according to DCC Title 22, the Uniform Development Procedures Ordinance. B. The provisions of DCC 18.124.030 shall apply to the following: 1. All conditional use permits where a site plan is a condition of approval; 2. Multiple family dwellings with more than three units; 3. All commercial uses that require parking facilities; 4. All industrial uses; 5. All other uses that serve the general public or that otherwise require parking facilities, including, but not limited to, landfills, schools, utility facilities, churches, community buildings, cemeteries, mausoleums, crematories, airports, parks and recreation facilities and livestock sales yards; and 6. As specified for Flood Plain Zones (FP) and Surface Mining Impact Area Combining Zones (SMIA). FINDING: Marijuana Processing is an industrial use2, however the proposed processing represents a small fraction of the total use at the site, which is dominated by the existing farm use and the proposed Marijuana Production facility. Therefore, staff finds that the use of land is not primarily for the manufacture, processing, storage or wholesale distribution of products, goods or materials. The use is not a commercial use3. However, since the proposed processing is a use that requires parking facilities, site plan review is required for the processing use only. 2. Section 18,124.060, Approval Criteria. Approval of a site plan shall be based on the following criteria: A. The proposed development shall relate harmoniously to the natural environment and existing development, minimizing visual impacts and preserving natural features including views and topographical features. FINDING: The property is level farmland currently developed with a single-family dwelling and 5 existing farm buildings. Views to the east from the subject property include portions of the Pilot Butte Canal along with smaller scale farm operations. Views north, west, and south of the subject property include some large undeveloped tracts along with smaller scale farm operations and associated agricultural development. No natural or topographic features would be impacted by this proposal as it is clustered near the existing development on site. Additionally, the proposed parking area landscaping will more seamlessly blend the proposed use into the surrounding area. Staff finds that Marijuana Processing within the existing farm building will relate harmoniously to the natural environment and existing development. B. The landscape and existing topography shall be preserved to the greatest extent possible, considering development constraints and suitability of the landscape and topography. Preserved trees and shrubs shall be protected. 2 DCC 18.04.030 - "Industrial use" means the use of land primarily for the manufacture, processing, storage or wholesale distribution of products, goods or materials. It does not include commercial uses. 3 DCC 18.04.030 - "Commercial use" means the use of land primarily for the retail sale of products or services, including offices. It does not include factories, warehouses, freight terminals or wholesale distribution centers. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 34 FINDING: The property is level farmland currently developed with a single family dwelling and 5 existing farm buildings. The property has native trees and shrubs scattered throughout the site. This vegetation is primarily located in the northeast corner, surrounding the single family dwelling, and along the west property line. None of the existing vegetation will be impacted by this proposal. No alterations to the existing topography are proposed or necessary with this development. C. The site plan shall be designed to provide a safe environment, while offering appropriate opportunities for privacy and transition from public to private spaces. FINDING: The layout of the existing driveway, parking area, and proposed structures, provide appropriate opportunities for privacy and transition from public to private spaces. The parking area is set back approximately 200 feet from the southern property line, which is the nearest property boundary. Additionally, it is screened from view by existing development and landscaping, including the single family dwelling on site. The proposed processing facility is set back from the southern property line by approximately 320 feet, which is the nearest property boundary. Additionally, the facility is screened from the nearest public road, Young Avenue, via existing agricultural structures and landscaping. Marijuana Processing can include unusual levels of fire safety hazard. Redmond Fire and Rescue has provided comments related to this application which are listed above. As a condition of approval, the applicant shall comply with all requirements of Redmond Fire and Rescue at all times to provide a safe environment at the processing facility. D. When appropriate, the site plan shall provide for the special needs of disabled persons, such as ramps for wheelchairs and Braille signs. FINDING: At the time of plan check for the building permit, the applicant will be subject to any applicable ADA requirements. E. The location and number of points of access to the site, interior circulation patterns, separations between pedestrians and moving and parked vehicles, and the arrangement of parking areas in relation to buildings and structures shall be harmonious with proposed and neighboring buildings and structures. FINDING: The applicant proposes to continue using the existing access from Young Avenue to reach the proposed parking area. Additionally, no changes in the existing circulation patterns on site are proposed. The proposed processing building will be separated from the parking area by approximately 45 -feet as well as an existing well structure. The processing facility will buffered from neighboring properties as the proposed location is a minimum of 200 feet from the closest property boundary. Additionally, staff is unaware of any planned structures on adjacent properties. Based on the site plan submitted by the applicant, staff finds proposed processing building shall be harmonious with neighboring buildings and structures. F. Surface drainage systems shall be designed to prevent adverse impacts on neighboring properties, streets, or surface and subsurface water quality. FINDING: There is no evidence in the record that the site has a history of adversely impacting the surface water drainage pattern in the area. The site is relatively level with farmland surrounding the building area. Given the relatively small area of the roof associated with the proposed processing building in relation to the large size of the property, staff finds runoff from the building will be contained on-site. Staff finds that the site will not adversely impact on neighboring properties, streets, or surface and subsurface water quality. G. Areas, structures and facilities for storage, machinery and equipment, services (mail, refuse, utility wires, and the like), loading and parking and similar 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 35 accessory areas and structures shall be designed, located and buffered or screened to minimize adverse impacts on the site and neighboring properties. FINDING: The parking area proposed on site is located more than 200 feet from the nearest property line. Additionally, existing on-site vegetation and development, including the single family dwelling and multiple agricultural structures, will shield the parking area from public view from the south, east, and north. The applicant also proposes to establish a 5 -foot wide landscaping area on the west side of the parking site to more fully screen the use from neighboring properties and the public. Any proposed waste storage structures will be located inside the proposed marijuana production and processing buildings on site, thereby reducing any potential visual impacts. This criterion will be met. H. All above ground utility installations shall be located to minimize adverse visual impacts on the site and neighboring properties. FINDING: No new utility installations are proposed. I. Specific criteria are outlined for each zone and shall be a required part of the site plan (e.g. lot setbacks, etc.). FINDING: The structure will meet the dimensional standards and setback requirements set forth in DCC 18.16 and 18.116, as described above, as well as the building height standard in DCC 18.16. Based on these findings and the plans submitted by the applicant, the proposal meets this criterion. J. All exterior lighting shall be shielded so that direct light does not project off site. FINDING: The applicant has acknowledged this requirement. As a condition of approval, all exterior lighting shall be shielded so that direct light does not project off-site. K. Transportation access to the site shall be adequate for the use. 1. Where applicable, issues including, but not limited to, sight distance, turn and acceleration/deceleration lanes, right-of-way, roadway surfacing and widening, and bicycle and pedestrian connections, shall be identified. 2. Mitigation for transportation -related impacts shall be required. 3. Mitigation shall meet applicable County standards in DCC 17.16 and DCC 17.48, applicable Oregon Department of Transportation (0007) mobility and access standards, and applicable American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) standards. FINDING: In reviewing the supplemental Site Traffic Report (STR) provided by the applicant, no transportation infrastructure deficiencies or improvements were identified by the Deschutes County Road Department or the Deschutes County Transportation Planner. 3. Section 18.124.070. Reauired Minimum Standards. A. Private or shared outdoor recreation areas in residential developments. IN" FINDING: No residential units are proposed. This criterion is not applicable. B. Required Landscaped Areas. 1. The following landscape requirements are established for multi family, commercial and industrial developments, subject to site plan approval: 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 36 a. A minimum of 15 percent of the lot area shall be landscaped. b. All areas subject to the final site plan and not otherwise improved shall be landscaped. FINDING: These criteria only apply to multi family, commercial and industrial developments. As discussed above, the Marijuana Production use is an "industrial use". However, staff finds that the siting of this use in a 1,200 -square foot building does not make the primary use of the 62 -acre property "industrial development". Staff finds that these criteria do not apply to this proposal. 2. In addition to the requirement of DCC 18.124.O7O(B)(1)(a), the following landscape requirements shall apply to parking and loading areas: a. A parking or loading area shall be required to be improved with defined landscaped areas totaling no less than 25 square feet per parking space. b. In addition to the landscaping required by DCC 18.124.O7O(B)(2)(a), a parking or loading area shall be separated from any lot line adjacent to a roadway by a landscaped strip at least 10 feet in width, and from any other lot line by a landscaped strip at least five feet in width. c. A landscaped strip separating a parking or loading area from a street shall contain: 1) Trees spaced as appropriate to the species, not to exceed 35 feet apart on the average. 2) Low shrubs not to reach a height greater than three feet zero inches, spaced no more than eight feet apart on the average. 3) Vegetative ground cover. d. Landscaping in a parking or loading area shall be located in defined landscaped areas which are uniformly distributed throughout the parking or loading area. e. The landscaping in a parking area shall have a width of not less than five feet. f. Provision shall be made for watering planting areas where such care is required. g. Required landscaping shall be continuously maintained and kept alive and attractive. h. Maximum height of tree species shall be considered when planting under overhead utility lines. FINDING: Ten (10) parking spaces are required for the use proposed. The parking area is not adjacent to a property line or roadway, as it is located approximately 200 feet from any such boundary. Additionally, the proposed parking area will be separated from the southern lot line, the closest property boundary, by existing development and vegetation. The applicant proposes to plant a 5 -foot wide landscaping strip along the west edge of the parking site. The proposed dimensions will supply approximately 45 -square -feet of defined landscape area per parking space. The following condition of approval has been added to ensure compliance with this section. Landscapina maintenance: All proposed landscaping shall be continuously maintained and kept alive and attractive. Additionally, provisions for watering planting areas shall be made where such care is required. C. Non -motorized Access. 1. Bicycle Parking. The development shall provide the number and type of bicycle parking facilities as required in DCC 18.116.031 and 18.116.035. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 37 The location and design of bicycle parking facilities shall be indicated on the site plan. FINDING: Compliance with DCC 18.116.031 and 18.116.035 is discussed in findings for those sections, above. 2. Pedestrian Access and Circulation: a. Internal pedestrian circulation shall be provided in new commercial, office and multi -family residential developments through the clustering of buildings, construction of hard surface pedestrian walkways, and similar techniques. FINDING: This criterion does not apply, as the facility is not a commercial, office, or multi -family residential development. b. Pedestrian walkways shall connect building entrances to one another and from building entrances to public streets and existing or planned transit facilities. On site walkways shall connect with walkways, sidewalks, bikeways, and other pedestrian or bicycle connections on adjacent properties planned or used for commercial, multi family, public or park use. c. Walkways shall be at least five feet in paved unobstructed width. Walkways which border parking spaces shall be at least seven feet wide unless concrete bumpers or curbing and landscaping or other similar improvements are provided which prevent parked vehicles from obstructing the walkway. Walkways shall be as direct as possible. d. Driveway crossings by walkways shall be minimized. Where the walkway system crosses driveways, parking areas and loading areas, the walkway must be clearly identifiable through the use of elevation changes, speed bumps, a different paving material or other similar method. e. To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, the primary building entrance and any walkway that connects a transit stop to building entrances shall have a maximum slope of five percent. Walkways up to eight percent slope are permitted, but are treated as ramps with special standards for railings and landings. FINDING: Staff believes that (b) through (e) apply to any use subject to site plan review. The applicant did not show pedestrian walkways at the proposed facility. Staff follows the Hearings Officer decision in CU - 14 -7 where the Hearings Officer found that, "...these criteria have limited application to the applicants' proposal inasmuch as there is only one commercial use proposed for the subject property, and there will be a single building for that use. Therefore, I find there is no need to apply these criteria to require particular pedestrian circulation or walkways on the property." Staff finds that the present application is similar in that there is a single building proposed for the Marijuana Processing facility and that no pedestrian walkways under these criteria are required. D. Commercial Development Standards: FINDING: The proposed facility is not a commercial development. These criteria do not apply. 247 -17 -000905 -AD, 17 -938 -LR, 17 -939 -AD, and 17 -940 -SP 38 4. Section 18.124.090. Richt of Wav Improvement Standards. Any dedications or improvements to the road right of way required under DCC 18.124 shall meet the standards for road right of way improvements set forth in DCC Title 17 and any standards for right-of-way improvements set forth in DCC Title 18 for the particular zone in question. FINDING: No transportation infrastructure deficiencies or requirements were identified by the Deschutes County Road Department or the Deschutes County Transportation Planner. IV. TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGES: As noted in previous sections by the Deschutes County Transportation Planner, "Board Resolution 2013- 020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The Board in a policy decision in early 2017 decided to use the ITE rate for Warehouse (LU 150) for marijuana production and Manufacturing (LU 140) for processing. The County has not yet updated its trip generation rates to reflect the 10th edition of the ITE manual. The County's adopted rates are from the 9th edition, hence the discrepancy between the County's SDC rate and the applicant's STR for p.m. peak hour trips. The SDC for growing would be 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips (20.832 X 0.32) for an SDC of $26,378 ($3,937 X 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be 0.9 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for an SDC of $3,543 (0.9X$3,937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $29,921 ($26,378 + $3,543). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final." IV. CONCLUSION Based on the foregoing Findings, staff finds that the proposed marijuana production and processing facility can comply with the applicable standards and criteria of the Deschutes County zoning ordinance if conditions of approval are met. V. DECISION APPROVAL, subject to the following conditions of approval. VI. ONGOING CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL 1.

Notice of Appeal May 12, 2018 We strongly appeal the approval of the permit to allow the construction & operation of a Marijuana growing & processing operation on property at 21330 Young Ave., Redmond, Oregon, 97756. The basis for our objections to the permit approval are: 1.There is not sufficient history by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on air quality standards for such a facility to adequately guarantee that there will not be odor pollution generated by the operation effecting surrounding properties and subsequently reducing in surrounding property values. The proposed Charcoal/Carbon air filters have no indicators to determine when the filters have depleted their effectiveness & need changed. If the owners do not change filters at recommended intervals, then pungent orders will be emitted into the outside air. 2. The commercial truck & employee vehicle traffic at the site will increase to a level not intended for rural land use standards. 3. The high value nature of the crop being grown on the property could create a security risk and increased criminal activity problems, adding the Law Enforcement's workload in the rural area. 4. The proximity of young infants living close to the operation is not a healthy environment that will generated by the growing & processing activities. 5. There is no stated requirement that a water use meter be installed on the property's domestic use well to insure that no domestic well water is used in the growing operation. 6. If the marijuana processing involves the use of High temperature & combustible grain alcohol to perform the process of obtaining a Full Extract Cannabis Oil product, then there is a potently high risk of an explosion & fire, if the process is not adequately ventilated & a fire suppression system installed prevent the fire from spreading to adjacent dwellings The area is without fire hydrants. 7. A fire suppression system should not be allowed to use the domestic well water as a source. Thank you for considering our position for appealing this approved proposed permit. We, the undersigned, agree with the above statements of concern in the appeal. Name Print Dennis Wirt Signaprej Address Phone Contact 8055 S. Canal Blvd. Redmond, OR. 541-420-8080 8151 S.

Facility Description • Structure consists of a proposed cannabis cultivation facility: four structures, approximately 124' long, 42' wide, and an average roof height of 13'. • HVAC system: o 13 5 -ton split system heat pumps will be used to condition each structure. o All air within the structure will be circulated through inline fans with activated carbon filter attachments to mitigate odor. o Of the four structures, two will operate lights and equipment simultaneously, and pairs will alternate every 12 hours. Cannabis Odor The Deschutes County code DCC 18.116.330(6)(10) reads: Odor. As used in DCC 18.116.330(B)(10), building means the building, including greenhouses, hoop houses, and other similar structures, used for marijuana production or marijuana processing. a. The building shall be equipped with an effective odor control system which must at all times prevent unreasonable interference of neighbors' use and enjoyment of their property. b. An odor control system is deemed permitted only after the applicant submits a report by a mechanical engineer licensed in the State of Oregon demonstrating that the system will control odor so as not to unreasonably interfere with neighbors' use and enjoyment of their property. COLE ENGINEERING c. Private actions alleging nuisance or trespass associated with odor impacts are authorized, if at all, as provided in applicable state statute. d. The odor control system shall: i. Consist of one or more fans. The fan(s) shall be sized for cubic feet per minute (CFM) equivalent to the volume of the building (length multiplied by width multiplied by height) divided by three. The filter(s) shall be rated for the required CFM or ii. Utilize an alternative method or technology to achieve equal to or greater odor mitigation than provided by (i) above. e. The system shall be maintained in working order and shall be in use. The odor control system will consist of activated carbons filters attached to inline fans that recirculate air within each structure. The capacity of this carbon filtration system will be no less than the volume of the space divided by three, in accordance with DCC 18.116.330(B)(10)(d). Space volumes and fan recommendations are tabulated below. Any similar carbon filtration system with equal or greater capacity may be used. Several sizes of Can -Filter will suffice, although we recommend Can 150 filters. Room Length (ft) Width (ft) Avg.

The site is on the north side of Young Avenue just east of SW Canal Boulevard. The 62.61 -acre property is zoned for Exclusive Farm Use Tumalo- Redmond-Bend use, allowing the proposed marijuana production and extraction facility outright. Retail sales are not proposed as part of this application. The requirements for an STR are contained within Deschutes County Code 18.116.310. Figure 1. Proposed Site Vicinity Map. The overall property includes an existing residence and other outbuildings that will remain. The proposed development plan will add four 5,208 square -foot buildings to the site for marijuana production, and a 1,500 building for extraction. Figure 2 illustrates the proposed site plan. As retail sales are not proposed, the trip generation will only reflect employee trips (and other typical delivery and maintenance vehicles), typical of other agricultural operations within greenhouses. 1130STR Young Avenue Farm (ISTING BUILDINGS PARKING (10) sp 5' PARKING LANDSCAPE WELL EXIST. 40'X30' SUPPORT BUILDING (4) 42' X 124' BUILDINGS RP 11,7* 5' SILO EXISTING FARM PARKING EXIST ACCESS X4..1.ACCES._.._,...... ..,.._...__ �401,•••••• • EXISTING BUILDINGS 5' Figure 2.

The structures are located in the southwest corner of the property. 74th Lane extends south from the southwestern property corner serving approximately six taxlots. TRIP GENERATION The standard reference Trip Generation, 10th Edition, published by the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) was reviewed to estimate the trip generation potential of the proposed production facility. Deschutes County staff have developed a standardized trip generation approach to marijuana production and extraction facilities within Central Oregon. Deschutes County Planning staff have required the classification of greenhouse production space using ITE's Warehouse classification (ITE Land Use 150). The definition of this land use is as follows: "Warehouses are primarily devoted to the storage of materials, but they may also include office and maintenance areas." County planning staff further require that marijuana processing operations be classified using ITE's Manufacturing classification (ITE Land Use 140). The definition of this land use is as follows: 2 Young Avenue Farm "Manufacturing facilities are areas where the primary activity is the conversion of raw materials or parts into finished products. Size and type of activity may vary substantially from one facility to another. In addition to the production of goods, manufacturing facilities generally also have office, warehouse, research, and other associated functions." As shown, the generalized definitions within each of these land use classifications could be broadly applied to a wide range of uses. However, the characteristics of these uses are typically of shift -work that remains steady throughout the year, and reflects approximately two employees per 1,000 square -feet of building space within the manufacturing portion of the facility, and approximately one employee for every 2,000 square -feet of warehouse space. The ITE methodologies only apply to enclosed building area. Review of this methodology shows that it provides a reasonable employee density. Table 1. Trip Generation Estimates (ITE 10th Edition) ITE Size Daily Weekday PM Peak Hour Land Use Code (Metric) Trips Total In Out Warehousing 150 20,832 SF 36 4 1 3 (Marijuana Production) (1.74/KSF) (0.19 /KSF) _ (27%) (73%) Manufacturing 140 1,200 SF 5 1 0 1 (Marijuana Extraction) (3.93/KSF) (0.67/KSF) (31%) (69%) Total Trips 41 5 1 1 4 As shown in Table 1, the proposed site is expected to generate 41 daily trips, including 5 trips during the weekday p.m. peak hour (1 in, 4 out). As the ITE Trip Generation manual is based on cordon counts at similar facility access points, this trip generation estimate accounts for employees, visitors, and deliveries necessary to support, operate, and maintain the facility. The site will also continue to experience on-going trips related to existing agricultural use of the property. TRIP DISTRIBUTION AND TRIP ASSIGNMENT There are several travel options to access the site and major area transportation facilities. Young Avenue to 61' Street provides the most direct route to Bend via the US 97 corridor. Young Avenue east to SW 61' Street or west to Canal Boulevard provides connectivity to the City of Redmond, and Canal Boulevard from the south connects with Bend's west side. Based on the available connections and regional population centers, Figure 3 illustrates the weekday p.m. peak hour trip distribution and assignment, with 70 percent of site -generated trips destined to and from the south and 30 percent toward the north. 3 Young Avenue Farm OYOUNG AVENUE! SITE ACCESS_ 3�` 41 TEV:5 1 Figure 3. Estimated Trip Distribution Pattern and Net New Trip Assignment, Weekday PM Peak Hour. SAFETY ANALYSIS Historical Crash Data Historical safety of the surrounding intersections was reviewed using data from the ODOT Crash Analysis and Reporting database. Crashes required for reporting include those that involve at least one motor vehicle and result in $1,500 or more in property damage or some level of personal injury. This analysis summarized reported crashes that had occurred between January 2011 and December 2015. Review of the crash reports showed five crashes near the SW Young Avenue intersection with SW Canal Boulevard, and five crashes near the SW Young Avenue/SW 61' Street intersection. Nearly all of the crashes resulted in some level of personal injury. All of the reported crashes along the Old Redmond -Bend Highway were classified as "fixed -object" collisions, and are likely associated with the gentle horizontal curve, surrounding trees, fencing, and utility poles. A curve warning sign with a 50 mph advisory speed is posted prior to the curve to warn drivers of the maneuver. Deschutes County is currently conducting a safety review of the Old Redmond -Bend Highway corridor. It is recommended that the county review low-cost curve warning enhancements such as centerline or fogline rumble strips near the Young Avenue intersection. Similarly, all of the reported crashes at the SW 61' Street/SW Young Avenue intersection were also classified as fixed -object collisions surrounding the curve in the roadway to avoid the rock outcropping. Review of the road shows that curve advisory signs are posted with an advisory speed of 35 miles per hour, and chevrons are posted near the Young Avenue intersection. Based on this review, historical crashes within the area arenot associated with the SW Young Avenue intersection but appear to be related to the roadway curvature. Approximately half of the reported 4 Young Avenue Farm crashes occurred during icy conditions and are likely attributable to higher operating speeds than supported by the conditions. The County's ongoing study of the Old Redmond -Bend corridor is expected to further review area conditions as part of a roadside safety audit. Strategies to address County -wide fixed -object collisions were previously identified as part of the ODOT All Roads Traffic Safety (ARTS) project. The proposed development does not directly contribute toward these crash patterns, but transportation system development charge fees can help support area mitigation measures. Intersection Sight Distance Intersection sight distance was reviewed to ensure an adequate view of conflicting traffic was provided to drivers at the site access along Young Avenue. Sight distance information and requirements are based on the standard reference A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets, 6th Edition published by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) in 2011, commonly referred to as the Green Book. The sight distance review was based on existing conditions. While a posted speed was not observed, a speed of 45 miles per hour on Young Avenue was assumed given the rural local roadway characteristics. Sight lines were also found to be adequate if the assumed speed were 55 miles per hour. As summarized within this section, intersection sight distance exceeds minimum AASHTO recommendations at the SW Young Avenue access given the straight and flat roadway section. Intersection Sight Triangles Given the minor -street stop -control, intersection sight triangles were developed based on guidance cited within Conditions B1 (left -turn from minor road) and 132 (right -turn from minor road) of the Green Book. All distances were measured from a vertex point located 14.5 feet from the major -road travel way along the center of the approaching travel lane, accounting for comfortable positioning distance from the travel way (6.5 feet) and the distance from the front of the vehicle to the driver eye (8.0 feet). The assumed eye height is 3.5 feet above the departing road for passenger vehicles. The object height is also 3.5 feet above the major road, providing enough space on the approaching vehicle to recognize it. Figure 4 illustrates the intersection sight distance measurements at the stop -controlled driveway approach. 111 14.5 Ft Clear Sight Triangle "� �+uhilmlul III 5 Case B1: 500 Ft ...... . Case 82:430 Ft ------ Young Avenue Farm Figure 4. Intersection Sight Triangle Measurements for Case B1 (Left -Turn from Stop) and Case 82 (Right -Turn from Stop). Case B1: Left -Turn From Stop Recommended intersection sight distances are based on the distance an approaching vehicle travels during the time it takes a side -street vehicle to make a decision and safely accelerate into the travel lane without unduly interfering with major -street traffic. Given the flat slope of Young Avenue (less than 3 percent) and three -lane section a time gap of 7.5 seconds was applied. AASHTO Formula 9-1 summarizes the recommended sight distance along the major road of approximately 500 feet based on the assumed speed of 45 miles per hour. Intersection Sight Distance = 1,47 Vmajor (mph )tgop (sec) = 496.1 feet Field review identified that current sight lines easily exceed this distance from the existing property access. Case 82: Right Turn from the Minor Road Views for vehicles exiting the site to the left (eastbound on Young Avenue) must be adequate to accommodate a right -turn. A time gap of 6.5 seconds is applied to account for this maneuver, reflecting the shorter distance of crossing into a single lane and the shorter time gap acceptance by drivers turning right. Formula 9-1 also applies for this distance, resulting in a minimum recommended intersection sight distance of 430 feet. Intersection Sight Distance = 1.47 VmaJor(mph)taop(sec) = 430.0 feet Field measurements indicate that sight lines well beyond 430 feet are available today. Accordingly, no sight distance restrictions were identified. Figures 5 and 6 illustrate the views from the property access. Figure 5. Young Avenue facing west. Figure 6. Young Avenue facing east. 6 Young Avenue Farm SITE CIRCULATION The existing property provides a substantial gravel parking area capable of supporting employee trips, construction vehicles, and delivery vehicles. As shown within the site plan, ten dedicated employee parking stalls are available to support the proposed marijuana production and extraction operation. While continued agricultural use of the property may continue to serve larger farming equipment and trucks, the marijuana production and extraction will be served primarily with "sprinter" delivery vehicles. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Key findings are as follows: • The proposed development includes four new warehouses for marijuana production and a separate outbuilding for extraction. The overall operation will add 20,832 square -feet of marijuana production building space and 1,200 square -feet of processing space. • Application of the standard Deschutes County classifications for these uses results in 41 weekday daily trips and 5 additional weekday p.m. peak hour trips. • Field review did not identify any geometric or control deficiencies associated with crashes within the study area. Fixed -object collisions along Canal Boulevard are being addressed as part of the County's ongoing Old Redmond -Bend corridor plan. • No identifiable sight distance conflicts or impediments were identified at the existing access location. Study Recommendations: • The development should contribute toward County -wide transportation improvement projects based on the Transportation SDC.

The proposal will establish four (4) new buildings of 5,964 square feet each and convert an 1,200 -square -foot building to an accessory operations building. As I understand it, this application supplants 247 -17 -000 -939 -AD, which is on the same property. Deschutes County Code (DCC) at 18.116.330(B)(8) only requires proof of legal direct access to the property or access from a private easement for a grow of more than 5,000 square feet of mature canopy. The proposal is for 9,800 square feet of mature canopy, so the access requirement does apply. The traffic study requirements of DCC 18.116.310 are applicable for this marijuana production and processing operation as the application is going through site plan review and thus does need to show compliance with DCC 18.124.080(J), which references the County's traffic study requirements described below. The most recent edition of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Handbook does not contain a category for marijuana production. In consultation with the Road Department Director and Planning staff, the County has determined the best analog use is Warehouse (Land Use 150) based on the storage requirements and employees of this activity. Warehouse generates daily trips at a rate of 3.56 trips per 1,000 square feet. The application indicates the site will use 23,856 square -feet of greenhouses for cannabis production (5,964 X 4). The resulting trip rate would be 85 daily trips (3.56 X 23.856). For cannabis processing, the County uses the ITE code for Manufacturing (Land Use 140), which has a daily trip rate of 3.82 trips per 1,000 square feet. The 1,200 -square -foot greenhouse will produce 4.6 daily trips (3.82 X 1.2). The combined production and processing will generate 89.6 daily trips (85 + 4.6). Deschutes County Code (DCC) at 18.116.310(C)(3)(b) states a traffic analysis is needed if there are between 50 and 200 new weekday trips generated from the use. The proposed land use will meet this minimum threshold for additional traffic analysis. The traffic analysis is based on p.m. peak hour trips. Warehouse generates at 0.32 trips per 1,000 square feet, which results in 7.6 p.m. peak hour trips (23.856 X 0.32) for production. Light Industrial generates 0.73 p.m. peak hour trips per 1,000 square feet, which results in 0.88 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for processing. The total p.m. peak hour trips for this use would be 8.48 p.m. peak hour trips (7.6 + 0.88). If the property does not already have one, the applicant should be required to obtain a driveway permit for this site. The property lies approximately 24,866 feet to the south-southwest of the Redmond Airport. The proposed buildings are 1'6 feet in height and the zoning allows 30 feet; this means no buildings will penetrate any imaginary surfaces related to the Redmond Airport. Board Resolution 2013-020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The ITE rates quoted above are used to determine the SDC. The SDC for growing would be $29,921 ($3,937 X 7.6 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be $3,465 (0.88 X $3,937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $33,386 ($29,921 + $3,465). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final. 1 Please let me know if you have any questions.

According to the STR, the operation will result in 20,832 square feet of marijuana production and convert an 1,200 -square -foot building to an accessory operations building for processing. I agree with the STR's methodologies, assumptions, and recommendations. If the property does not already have one, the applicant should be required to obtain a driveway permit for this site to conform with DCC 17.48.210(A). The property lies approximately 24,866 feet to the south-southwest of the Redmond Airport. The proposed buildings are 16 feet in height and the zoning allows 30 feet; this means no buildings will penetrate any imaginary surfaces related to the Redmond Airport. Board Resolution 2013-020 sets a transportation system development charge (SDC) rate of $3,937 per p.m. peak hour trip. The Board in a policy decision in early 2017 decided to use the ITE rate for Warehouse (LU 150) for marijuana production and Manufacturing (LU 140) for processing. The County has not yet updated its trip generation rates to reflect the 10th edition of the ITE manual. The County's adopted rates are from the 9th edition, hence the discrepancy between the County's SDC rate and the applicant's STR for p.m. peak hour trips. The SDC for growing would be 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips (20.832 X 0.32) for an SDC of $26,378 ($3,937 X 6.7 p.m. peak hour trips). The SDC for processing would be 0.9 p.m. peak hour trips (1.2 X 0.73) for an SDC of $3,543 (0.9 X $3,937). Thus the total applicable SDC for growing and processing would be $29,921 ($26,378 + $3,543). The SDC is due prior to issuance of certificate of occupancy; if a certificate of occupancy is not applicable, then the SDC is due within 60 days of the land use decision becoming final.

The 2 proposals are coming from the same applicant on the same property. One application (905 -AD) is for a proposed marijuana production facility, while the other (939 -AD) is for a proposed marijuana processing facility. Our codes require us to process these as separate files as they have distinct approval criteria, but again each will be housed on the same property and within the same structures. The actual footprint of the proposed buildings do not change from one file to the other.

To me, it seems that if someone wants to grow marijuana, it should only be allowed on owner -occupied property. There is a qualitative difference between that and an emplovee-occupied property. 1 live across the street from this property, which currently has marijuana being grown inside a forrner milking barn. Since the property's purchase and subsequent conversion to a marijuana property, the only people living on site appear to be employees. That may seem like a small difference, but such a shift erodes the current character of rural property in the area. To employees, this is just a job. To an owner/farm dweller, this 15 where they live, this is their life. In order to not adversely impact traffic, there should be a limit on the number of trips per day. In my opinion, the new structures should not be any closer to a neighbor's house than twice the distance from the owner's residence to the structure. Regardless of the measures taken to reduce the odor produced by the plant, it cannot be completely contained. Netghbors should not be subjected to anything that the owners themselves are not exposed to. In the summer when we drive out of our driveway, if the door to the grow area is open (and sometimes even when it is not), we can smell it from the street. Finally, since the structures are bulit for a specific purpose, if they cease to be used for that function, after twelve months they should be removed from the property. This kind of industrial agriculture000HsthehucoUomatmpepfrure||iving. I hope you will take my concerns into consideration in making your decision. Sincerely, / Frank Brian 20 November 2017 J.

I am strongly opposed to the proposed development on the above mention property based on concerns that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) does not have established air quality standards for such a facility. The air pollutants from such an operation could migrate onto my property at 8151 S. Canal Blvd., tax account No. 130463, causing unpleasant orders & diminish the property value of our land. Once there are established specific EPA air quality standards on marijuana production & processing operations, then !would re-evaluate my position on such a development.

This information along with the condition of approval that requires compliance with all applicable state statutes and regulations regarding water usage will ensure that the water usage on site is both responsible and meets the County's code requirements. 2. Processing. Applicant proposes to utilize CO2 extraction. Attached is information about this technology. (Attachment 2.) As explained in the attachment, this extraction technology is non-flammable and does not present an elevated explosion or fire hazard. As noted in the staff report, applicant is also required to meet the requirements of the Redmond Rural Fire Protection District. 3. Odor and Noise. Applicant has included site-specific information regarding noise levels and abatement. The application includes sound buffering from both buildings as well as constructed sound barriers and takes into consideration the topography and vegetation of the site. The odor control system is being designed with surplus CFM and includes engineered designs. Appellants note that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not issued standards for 360 SW BOND STREET, SUITE 400, BEND, OR 97702 541.382.3011 17389.00211317805 5.docx FAX 541.388.5410 1 WWW.KARNOPP.COM Deschutes County Board of Commissioners June 13, 2018 Page 2 odor pollution. The EPA does not regulate odor.' If it did so, it would affect many farming operations. Instead, the County has imposed odor control requirements in its code applicable to marijuana production and as noted above, Applicant's proposal meets those standards. 4. Traffic. Applicant's Site Traffic Report prepared by Transight Engineering evaluated that proposed uses on the site are expected to generate 41 daily trips and that there were no safety or other transportation facility deficiencies associated with the site and use. In reality, the trip generation will not exceed this amount. Staff has imposed a maximum shift size not to exceed 10 persons. Applicant confirms that its staffing plan projects employment of approximately five full-time production employees, approximately two full-time processing employees, and approximately ten part-time seasonal harvest employees with no more than ten employees working during any given shift. Sprinter vans will be utilized for deliveries of its products and seasonal water delivery traffic will be nominal. It is estimated that 4,000 gallons will be required per month during the non -irrigation season, delivered by trucks with capacity of 3,000 gallons. This level of traffic is not materially different than other farm uses that may be allowed or were historically employed on the site. For example, this traffic generation is consistent with a wholesale nursery, a fire and rescue station, or a church. (Attachment 3.) 5, Site Status and 0112.011114 Use. While not directly related to the approval criterion, Applicant would like to clarify that known code violations have been resolved and the property taxes are current. (See Attachment 4.)2 It is the intention of Applicant to continue to irrigate the property as the enclosed picture evidences. (Attachment 5.) It is important to Applicant that the site continue to reflect its rural agricultural location. The property was previously used for dairy operations, which is an intensive farm -use operation, and included numerous facilities such as a feed lot, silo, and milking barn. It also involved shift employees, deliveries, and the operation of refrigeration and other mechanical and electrical equipment. The area contains other, similarly - sized agricultural operations and is traversed by an irrigation canal for active water deliveries to the other ongoing agricultural activities. On site, Applicant will, without limitation: continue to irrigate the pasture, increase farm uses within new indoor production facilities that are clustered with and partially screened by the site's existing development, establish a modestly sized 1 The Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. § 7401 et seq.), administered by the EPA, regulates 187 hazardous air pollutants (ht(v://wv, w3epa.2ovitt nia t 1 wit.h tn)I). However, these pollutants are regulated for their toxicity, not their odor. The primary concern of agencies that enforce national standards are public health and safety; issues such as odor, aesthetics, and land use are governed at the State or local level, if at all. "This reference guide to odor thresholds has been prepared by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Air Risk Information Support Center (Air RISC) as a resource tool [...] to identify information regarding odor thresholds for hazardous air pollutants." (emphasis added)(Reference Guide to Odor Thresholds for Hazardous Air Pollutants Listed in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, p. ix, 1992) 2 The City of Bend Community Development Department received a Marijuana Production Complaint on November 8, 2017, and upon investigation determined it was "unfounded." The Applicant resolved a building permit violation by applying for, and receiving, an agricultural exempt structure status. The Applicant otherwise resolved compliance issues by removing unpermitted improvements. 17389-00211317805 5.docx Deschutes County Board of Commissioners June 13, 2018 Page 3 processing facility within an existing structure, install a vegetation landscape buffer on the west side of the parking area, and install noise and odor abatement. The application will not disturb existing vegetation, obstruct views, or change the topography of the site. 6. Applicant intbrination. Applicant intends for its operations to be a component of a closed-loop, vertically -integrated operation—viz., production, processing, and retail. This will contribute to safely produced and processed marijuana products for sale in Oregon as intended by Oregon's regulatory scheme. Applicant's representatives include Central Oregon residents and US citizens who happen to reside in Costa Rica (which is known primarily for its eco - tourism industry). These individuals have come together to invest in burgeoning industry in Oregon. It is unfortunate that appellants have submitted misleading and irrelevant information about Applicant members. Such information is being thoroughly reviewed by the OLCC licensing division and has been acknowledged to be eligible for expungement. We appreciate the opportunity to further describe the proposal and Applicant's desire to be a responsible operator and to fully comply with County requirements. Kind Regards, ELLEN H.

There are many water -saving strategies employed by eco -conscious consumers, and hydroponics has emerged as one of the most effective technologies for farmers and growers concerned with water use. Everyone needs fresh produce for a healthy diet, and hydroponic food production has proven to be an effective solution for water conservation. One of hydroponics' main benefits is that it allows growers to maximize yields while minimizing water use. Hydroponics is a growing technique that feeds plants with elemental nutrients dissolved in water and delivered directly to the root zone without the use of soil. The technique gives growers greater control over the feeding process as well as the quantity and frequency of water delivery. There are several different hydroponic systems. Most of them recirculate water so that it gets used multiple times before it's completely absorbed, lost to evaporation, or dumped. The most efficient hydroponic systems result in water conservation in the garden. Hydroponic systems can be built in a variety of sizes and shapes. They can also be customized to fit almost any grow room or greenhouse. Deep water culture is a hydroponic method that uses buckets connected with PVC pipes to transport water from one plant to the next. The plants are placed in porous net pots that allow the roots to grow through an inert medium — like perlite or Rockwool — through the holes in the pot. Once they penetrate the exterior of the pot, the roots dangle down to touch a shallow layer of water that flows through an outer bucket. All of the plant containers in a grow system are connected to one another with PVC pipe. This multi -plant configuration is then connected to a "brain bucket" that controls water flow using pumps and a timer. The nutrient solution flows from plant to plant at set intervals throughout the REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER AND GROWING GREAT CANNABIS. Water quality is important when growing cannabis. Reverse osmosis filters put you completely in charge of the mineral profile of your water. Lets look at reverse osmosis. REVERSE OSMOSIS TO WATER CANNABIS To guarantee your experience with reverse osmosis water doesn't turn into a time and money wasting experience that fouls all your hard work raising cannabis, here is some excellent information to make sure you get great yields from healthy plants. From dean clones or from seed to flower, reverse osmosis puts you entirely in charge of the water for your grow. REVERSE OSMOSIS GOOD OR BAD? Reverse osmosis is a water filtering process that is said to cause argument among growers. Saying there is a division in opinion over reverse osmosis would be unfair to the generally loving nature of cannabis enthusiasts. The use of reverse osmosis is quite country dependant. With no need for contention. it is not surorising to ind reverse osmosif3 in uoe far more often in countries where the tap water is generally considered not potable, It makes sense that if you can't drink it, your plants, that are dependant on you for their entire ecosystem, probably can't drink it eithr. Meters of course do not inform you of the pollutant, radioactivity, microbial or bacterial content, which may need to be considered. WHAT IS REVERSE OSMOSIS (R0)? Reverse osmosis is a filtration method than can remove up to 95-99% of dissolved salts in any water sample. It is the preferred method for desalinating water on an industrial scale for manufacturing and domestic water supply. Reverse osmosis uses high pressure to force water through a semi -permeable membrane, leaving the salts on one side of the membrane, which goes to a waste water or brine stream. Pure water on the other side of the membrane is the usable water for you and your plants. The brine stream can be fed back through some systems to save water. Reverse osmosis can be wasteful if you have restrictive water access. Six litres of feed water are needed to create one litre of pure water. More, if the source water is very contaminated. Thankfully the burgeoning popularity of indoor cannabis cultivation has seen the drop in price and lift in efficiency of home reverse osmosis filtration units designed for the cannabis enthusiast.

If you are searching for pure cannabis concentrates, there's no better method than CO2 Extraction. 1 200 250 300 350 ternperature T(K) 400 Carbon dioxide (002) can be heated and compressed into a supercritical fluid, meaning that it can effuse through solids like gasses but still dissolve material like liquids. This phase diagram shows where traditional indications of physical state become homogenous, though it can be Carbon Dioxide Colorless compressed gas. Simple asphyxiant (reduces oxygen available for breathing) Eye/skin contact with the compressed gas can cause frostbite. CAS No 124.39-9 CO2 is non-toxic so there's no need to purge any of the solvent from the concentrate after the processing, but it should also evaporate/sublimate once warming above -78.5C making removal automatic. This saves time and leads to the purest concentrates since it requires no post -processing purging. This is why CO2 is the best method of cannabis concentrate extraction. Supercritical CO2 is chemically stable, reliable, low-cost, non-toxic, non- flammable and readily available, making it a desirable candidate working fluid. It's easier, more effective, and the safest method because CO2 is naturally occurring. You're not risking the inhalation of any other chemicals or substances other than pure cannabis extract. And, its not just safer for consumers, but also for manufacturers; CO2 is both less explosive and Tess flammable than the vast majority of alternatives. High natural abundance keeps costs low; our generators are able to replace any gas lost from the atmosphere. • • • • MRX' XTRACTORS 4 TRA N S 8 G HT CONSULTING, LLC nv"x,",u/w,c.u,"°e,."o^`.'et,,r,,,""o��,^,�'" Date: June 12, 2018 To: Ellen Grover, Karnopp Petersen, LLP From: Joe Bessman, PE Project Reference No.: 1130 Project Name: Young Avenue Farm (Evolution Group, LLC) Attachment 3 ---- p.XP1��317�1/zo'� l -__ ._ � The purpose of this memorandum is to provide a comparison between the trip generation potential of the Young Avenue Farm site with the proposed marijuana production and extraction operation to other uses allowed within the Exclusive Farm Use zone.

I talked with the Building Official and am confirming that you can apply for an AG exempt structure for the structure built without permits. Regarding the ductless heat pump units, he recommends that permits are obtained to legitimize the units. If you elect to remove the units to resolve the issue, however, he will require a special inspection permit to verify a safe disconnect and removal of work performed without permit. You can obtain the special inspection permit by seeing a Permit Tech at our office. Please confirm in return response (or by phone) which actions will be taken to resolve these issues. We can extend 30 days for you to obtain the necessary permits and/or inspection.

Board of County Commission deliberations are scheduled for Monday, June 25 at 1:30 p.m. MEMORANDUM TO: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners FROM: Nick Lelack, AICP, Director DATE: June 13, 2018 SUBJECTS: Community Development Department (CDD) Work Plan FY 2018-19 Public Hearing This public hearing is to provide an opportunity for public input on the draft Community Development Department (CDD) Annual Report and Work Plan for FY 2018-19 (Attachment 1). Board of County Commission (Board) deliberations are scheduled for Monday, June 25 at 1:30 p.m. (work session). I. CDD ANNUAL REPORT & WORK PLAN Each spring, CDD prepares an annual report describing accomplishments from the prior year and proposed work plan services and projects for the coming fiscal year. The work plan describes the most important objectives and proposed projects in each CDD division based on: 1. Board of County Commissioners' (Board) annual goals and policies (February 2018); 2. Carry-over projects from current or prior years; 3. Changes in state law; 4. Grants/funding sources; and 5. Public comments. It also serves as the context within which new projects that arise during the course of the year are prioritized and undertaken. 11. PUBLIC COMMENTS Below is a summary of public comments on the draft Work Plan prior to the packet deadline. Environmental Soils Division • Support for initiating a public education, information, and outreach effort regarding allowed uses on vacant, recreational lots in Southern Deschutes County to residents and realtors. Planning Division • Support for "any plan that quickly makes new lands available for Affordable Housing is a good plan." Please find attached an email from Habitat for Humanity supporting this concept. • Support and prioritize initiating a process to develop and adopt a grading ordinance. • Oppose initiating an agricultural lands re-evaluation and potential re -designation. • Support to initiate a process to develop and adopt an Urban Reserve Area for the City of Bend. • Support and prioritize coordinating with the City of La Pine to jointly update the Newberry Country Plan similar to the Sisters Country Horizons Vision. • Support growth management coordination with cities, county departments, state agencies and organizations. • Support initiating an ordinance to establish livestock limitations in rural residential and similar zones. • Support implementing amendments to Deschutes County Code and policy regarding wildfire mitigation. • Oppose initiating an "amendment to the Comprehensive Plan that allows for new rural industrial designations." • Support consider developing a heritage tree ordinance. I11. DRAFT WORK PLAN MATRIX Table 1 summarizes the Planning Divisions draft 2018-19 Work Plan. The matrix includes: • Staff project notes. • Estimated project resources, which include: o A minor rating equates to 2-6 months to complete and 0.25-0.75 full time equivalent (FTE) of long range planning staff. o A moderate rating equates to 4-8 months to complete and 0.5-1.0 FTE or more. o A significant rating spans 6-12 months or longer and requires 1.0-2.0 FTE with possible consultants. • Planning Commission and Historic Landmarks Commission (HLC) recommendations. • A Board "decision" column to identify projects to keep or remove from the Work Plan. Additional rows at the bottom of the matrix are provided for new Board priority projects. Staff will meet with the Board to seek direction on projects to initiate as resources become available. IV. BOARD DIRECTION / DECISIONS Staff is not seeking a decision from the Board at this public hearing. Deliberations and Work Plan adoption are scheduled for Monday, June 25, at the 1:30 p.m. work session. Attachments: 1. Draft FY 2018/2019 Annual Report and Work Plan 2.

These performance measures strategically and comprehensively align all of CDD's operations with the Board of County Commissioners' (BOCC) 2018-19 Goals and Objectives and the County's Customer Service Standards. The performance measures address service delivery expectations from the perspective of CDD's customers; ensure the department fulfills its regulatory compliance requirements; effectively manage the organization's assets, capacities, and finances; and preserve and enhance the County as a safe, sustainable, and desirable place to live, visit, work, learn and recreate. CDD performance measures implement the BOCC's FY 2018-19 goals and objectives. Each performance measure references the applicable BOCC goal and objective. For example, CDD performance measure 4, which is to achieve 85% voluntary compliance in Code Enforcement cases, implements the BOCC's Safe Communities Objective 1 to provide safe and secure communities through coordinated public safety and services will include the reference "SC -1" in bold type. • SAFE COMMUNITIES (SC) • HEALTHY PEOPLE (HP) • ECONOMIC VITALITY (EV) • SERVICE DELIVERY (SD) 1.

The Division consists of nine permit technicians. Staff work to ensure minimal wait times, provide accurate information to the public and ensure the efficient operation of the front counter and coordination among all divisions. Staff also perform basic building plan reviews. • Permit Technicians currently staff three satellite offices one day per week each, increasing to two days per week due to permit volumes. The ability to be co -located in each jurisdiction's city hall has greatly enhanced communication while processing permits. A significant number of projects have been initiated in cities, requiring a substantial amount of staff time. The Redmond satellite office continues to see only a minimal number of customers each week. • There was increased use of our online permitting services this past year. • Maintained a high level of customer service during a period of increased activity and new staff training. • In coordination with Administrative Services, Coordinated Services continues to assess equipment used by staff to ensure operational needs are met. The team developed project lists that will enhance service, staff efficiency and communications. Projects included: ® Providing smart phones to building and environmental health inspectors and code enforcement technicians in the field to provide real-time inspection results; making data available to inspectors in the field; and irnproving communication, photography and printing tools; ® Reviewing business processes and procedures and making several adjustments to accommodate and fully utilize Accela. ® Continued to create efficiencies using the Accela 13 Coordinated Services (cont.) permitting software. As the software evolves and new tools become available, Deschutes County continues to be a statewide leader in offering training opportunities to our customers and regional agency partners using the software. Deschutes County has created an Accela ePermitting Advisory Group that will be looking at the future of State ePermitting systems and how it can best fit the needs of the jurisdictions statewide. This is both an opportunity to discuss system issues and to offer suggestions for improvements to meet Deschutes Count's needs. The state has been supportive of this group and its suggestions. • Percentage of permits applied for at counter target is 40%. Results: 70.1 %. Did not achieve performance measure. • Continue to coordinate and conduct public outreach and education on Accela and related elements to increase customer use of ePermitting, and encourage submittal of applications for participating jurisdictions. • Continue to monitor customer and permit volumes in City of Sisters and City of La Pine to ensure resources are allocated to those locations ensuring customers are served in a timely and efficient manner. • Increase customer and public education on Accela and online permit applications in coordination with Information Systems staff to achieve performance measure. • Continue to explore options for improving efficiencies for permit applications submittals. ® Work with the new City of La Pine Community Development Director to improve efficiencies for reviewing building permit applications, the issuance of complex permits and Certificate of Occupancies for properties located in the City. ® Continue working with the City of Sisters to improve efficiencies in review of permit applications and issuance of those permits. • Serve on statewide ePermitting committee, participate in national Accela conference, and pursue other actions to ensure Accela meets Deschutes County's needs. • Continue to cross train permit technicians to perform simple plan reviews and participate in statewide permit technician training programs and Central Oregon Planners Network Training. • Achieve 25% of all permits being submitted electronically, with the exception of planning applications (the capability does not yet exist). • Establish and monitor a new performance measure—the target number of days for structural permit ready to issue turnaround time for Coordinated Services of four days. 14 Code Enforcement The Code Enforcement program consists of three Code Enforcement Specialists plus a volunteer. The program is managed by the Coordinated Services Administrative Manager and is supported by a law enforcement technician from the Sheriffs Department and operating divisions. Code Enforcement is responsible for investigating code violation complaints associated with building, land use, onsite wastewater disposal and solid waste codes (by contract with the Solid Waste Department). The program's overriding goal is to achieve voluntary compliance. If necessary, citations are issued for prosecution in Circuit Court or before a Code Enforcement hearings officer. The program continues to adapt to the County's challenges of growth and diversification, incorporating new measures to ensure timely code compliance. With the legalization of marijuana, Code Enforcement has been the leading entity for receiving and investigating signed and anonymous complaints. Code Enforcement closely coordinates with CDD divisions, the Sheriff's Office, the District Attorney's Office, and state agencies to achieve code and legal compliance of marijuana operations. Voluntary compliance remains the Code Enforcement program's core objective and staff continue to refine best practices to achieve this outcome. However, an ever-growing number of cases require further code enforcement action because of lagging correction or non-compliance. Through the continuing development and refinement of Procedures for Administrative Civil Penalty, Code Enforcement is obtaining expedited compliance from citations, a contrast to court adjudication and greater cost recovery. A disconcerting trend is the necessity for County abatement in some cases. In abatement, the County affects the cure of violations with prioritization on cost recovery. Abatement action is reserved for matters of chronic nuisance and public health and safety. In response to this trend, Code Enforcement is closely coordinating with other County departments in the development and enactment of abatement plans.

Land use legislation, policies and implementation measures made by Oregonians over 40 years ago helped shape Oregon's urban and rural environments. Likewise, choices made today will ultimately shape these areas in the future. Successful land use planning occurs through an open and public process that provides room for information gathering, analysis and vigorous debate. Deschutes County's Community Involvement program is defined in Section 1.2 of the Comprehensive Plan. This chapter identifies the County Planning Commission as the committee for citizen involvement. It also contains the County's Community Involvement goal and corresponding five policies that comply with Goal 1. This report briefly discusses the noteworthy community involvement actions undertaken by the Planning Division in 2017. The report is intended to provide county residents and stakeholders vvith a tool to assess its effectiveness and offer additional suggestions the County can utilize to ensure that its diverse communities remain actively involved in land use planning discussions. CURRENT PLANNING Administering the zoning code requires the Current Planning Division to process individual land use applications, zoning review and sign -off for building and septic permits. Current planners maintain legally prescribed turnaround times on land use applications (150 -days) and provide customer service through assistance at the front counter, phone conversations, and appointments. Phone messages are returned within 24 hours. MARIJUANA REGULATORY ASSESSMENT In dune 2016, the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners (BOCC) adopted eight ordinances to regulate the marijuana production, processing, wholesaling, and retail industries. Recognizing the unique development patterns in the rural county, regulations mitigate sight, sound, odor, water, waste disposal, and access, among others. They are unique among Oregon counties in three ways: 1. Discretionary standards allow the industry to utilize emerging technologies for growing and processing marijuana to demonstrate regulatory compliance; 31 ���vT E S 0 o COMMUNITY ..`�- DEVELOPMENT 2. Applications require notification to neighboring property owners which provide opportunities for public involvement in land use proceedings; and, 3. Development standards take into consideration rural zoning, lot patterns, a high desert climate, and agricultural practices. After adopting the ordinances, the BOCC committed to re- evaluating the marijuana regulations. The purpose of the regulatory assessment is twofold: ® Summarize comments from stakeholder, residents, interested parties, and state agencies and law enforcement regarding the effectiveness of the marijuana regulations; and ® Identify regulatory options. Commencing in October 2017, the Community Development Department (CDD) prepared an Existing Conditions Report. It described the marijuana applications submitted to Deschutes County from September 2016 through September 2017, The document also summarized the County's marijuana regulations and code enforcement philosophy. Upon its release, CDD initiated a public involvement process to identify prevailing opinions among industry representatives, stakeholders, and residents.

I°, LANDWATCH April 25, 2018 Deschutes County Planning Commission Nick Lelack Community Development Director 117 NW Lafayette Avenue Bend, OR 97703 re: Draft CDD FY 18-19 Annual Report/Work Plan Dear Chair Crawford and Planning Commissioners, www.centraloregonlandwatch.org Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Community Development Department Annual Report and Work Plan. Our comments are confined to the work plan for the Planning Division. Agricultural lands re-evaluation and potential re -designation In the interest of efficient use of County resources, we recommend that the County wait to see the judicial resolution of the Douglas County case before proceeding on this issue. To the extent the County seeks to correct any potential mapping errors in its Comprehensive Plan the County should follow the process outlined in ORS 215.788. There is no indication the lands of Deschutes County are incorrectly mapped. The last time the County examined the issue it was apparently decided there were no mapping errors. LandWatch recommends the County instead direct its resources to the study and identification of lands suitable for urban reserves. Deschutes Junction The item on the work plan states "initiate amendment to the Comprehensive Plan that allows for new rural industrial designations." As the County has previously stated, this item is intended to address the desires of one individual landowner in the Deschutes Junction area. That landowner has twice received approval from the County to re -designate his property, and those approvals were twice remanded or reversed by the Land Use Board of Appeals because those approvals did not comply with state law. There are currently hundreds of acres of land zoned for industrial use, including large lot industrial land, inside the urban growth boundaries and unincorporated communities of Deschutes County where such intensive development belongs. LandWatch does not believe it is good policy for the County to initiate a County -wide legislative process to achieve the goals of one individual landowner. 2 Growth Management Coordination This work plan item states that CDD will "coordinate with cities, County departments, state agencies and organizations to develop and implement growth management plans." LandWatch supports any County efforts to develop and implement growth management plans to plan for population growth. We also support any potential urban reserve areas planning process in coordination with the City of Bend to provide long-term certainty about future potential urban growth boundary expansions. Thank you for your consideration of these comments. Best regards, /s/ Carol Macbeth Carol Macbeth Staff Attorney Central Oregon LandWatch www.centraloregonlandwatch.org LANDWATCH May 1, 2018 Deschutes County Planning Commission Nick Lelack Community Development Director 117 NW Lafayette Avenue Bend, OR 97703 Re: Draft CDD FY 18-19 Annual Report/Work Plan Dear Chair Crawford and Planning Commissioners, www.centraloregonlandwatch.org Thank you for hearing comment from the public at your April 26, 2018 meeting on the CDD FY18-19 Annual Report/Work Plan. In addition to the comments we relayed at that meeting, Central Oregon LandWatch has one additional concern to submit to you prior to the May 3, 2018 closing of the written record period. Natural Hazards We support the proposed Planning Division work item to consider implementing amendments to Deschutes County code and policy regarding wildfire mitigation. Specifically, we recommend incorporating higher standards for wildfire risk found in model code from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), including NFPA 1141 and 1144, and the International Code Council (ICC), including the ICC Fire Prevention and Control Plan and International Fire Code. Incorporating NFPA 1141 would require most new development to achieve fire risk mitigation standards including access, building separation, fire protection, and water supply. Incorporating NFPA 1144 would further require most new development to include defensible space zones, use non-combustible construction materials, and complete hazard mitigation assessments and wildfire mitigation and action plans. Both NFPA 1141 and 1144 would require these fire protection standards prior to development approval. The ICC Fire Prevention and Control Plan includes additional or alternative standards of risk avoidance and mitigation for new development. Other potential code changes could include a prohibition on flammable building materials, more stringent defensible space standards, and a new Wildfire Hazard Combining Zone. Our region's wildfire risk will likely remain high as our climate becomes more arid and variable. Development in areas of high wildfire risk creates unnecessary risk to residents, firefighters, and first responders, and also results in the use of public money to protect private 2 property in the likely event of wildfire. Deschutes County should prioritize implementing code and policy changes to prevent risks to public safety, minimize private property damage, and prevent public firefighting expenditures. Thank you for your consideration of these comments. Regards, Rory Isbell Staff Attorney Central Oregon LandWatch www.centraloregonlandwatch.org From: Scott Rohrer To: Nick Lelack subject^ Annuai Report and Work PIan Draft Date: Wednesday, April 4, 2018 4:05:45 PM Attachments: /mwaeooxipo /manenoo./oo Nick,Nick, reviewed the Annual Report and Work Plan draft, and 1 have one comment. Given that Habitat for Humanity's exclusive focus is affordable housing, you can guess what my comment relates to: Land for Affordable Housing. Deschutes County contains four Habitat affiliates, Bend, Redmond, Sisters, andandSunriver/Lapine. am the Executive Director of Bend Area Habitat for Humanity. Our biggest need and challenge in the battle for affordable housing is land. In Bend, the cheapest build -ready lot currently costs $125K. That's the cheapest. Land cost is a big problem. The other problem is that there are very few $125K lots currently for sale. And unfortunately for me, the Bend area has the greatest land shortage of an town in Deschutes County. I personally think the Tillamook County Housing Plan is a bit overkill, but any plan that quickly makes new lands available for Affordable Housing is a good plan. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or desire additional input. Regards, Scott Rohrer Executive Director 224 NE Thurston Ave., Bend, OR 97701 Office: 541-385-5387 From: )eff Pokorny To: Nick Lelack; Board Subject: Community Development Department Work Plan Date: Wednesday, June 6, 2018 4:1720 PM I have a few thoughts for you regarding this... With growth and real-estate expansion comes the need for MORE agricultural land to feed more people... and your plan seeks to reduce it. This is counter intuitive. A cities real estate is not required to expand to keep the economy strong. A city must transition to a sustainable economy that is NOT based primarily on Growth (which is unsustainable in most every aspect) in order to keep the economy strong and sustainable. Our local wildlife depend on agricultural lands to migrate... which its critical to their very existence. A city is not valued for it's SIZE, it's valued for it's desirability. This often has an inverse relationship with growth. Lastly, Humans always choose the easiest path. If we designate more lands as "developable" it will take away the incentive to engage in the conversations about how to grow UP instead of OUT. I feel transitioning lands from Ag to Developable is NOT in the best interests of the future of our city. Working within the boundaries of land we already have that is developed/developable is the responsible thing to do for our future as a desirable/sustainable city depends on it. Have a Great Day, Jeff Pokorny 67255 Bass Lane Bend, OR 97703 From: Mary Ann Kruse To: Nick Lelack; Board Subject: Proposed re-classification of ag lands Date: Wednesday, June 6, 2018 5:18:11 PM Nick Lelack & Deschutes County Commissioners: Agricultural lands are valuable resources. Reclassifying to allow inappropriate development is absolutely not in Deschutes County community or wildlife's best interests. Ag lands provide local food, provide deer & elk herds with migratory corridors & these lands also provide a living for hundreds of Deschutes County families. I would call these ag lands a resource. Seriously, would you call these valuable lands non - resource? Thanks for the opportunity to comment. M.A. Kruse junehoa9@gmail.com "War is a virus Si imagination is the cure." Gandhi From: Susan Altman To: Nick Lelack; )3oard Subject: Public hearing June 13th - request for information Date: Thursday, June 7, 2018 2:22:31 PM Good afternoon, Nick: I understand there is a public hearing next Wednesday where the commissioners will be discussing reclassifying agricultural lands. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend. Do you have a briefing, please, that you could email me so that I can understand what is being proposed, what the possible outcomes would be, the purpose of reclassification, the timeline for hearings and public comments, how the state is involved, who is proposing this, who benefits, who suffers, what the tax implications would be, etc.? For the record, I am opposed to anything that takes away our valuable resources of open space, wildlife habitat / corridors, and/or agricultural lands in exchange for adding density for housing developments. Would this be a way to bypass the UGB? Thank you, Susan ea 0 oCn 00 C$ N co >- 0111 .0 4.

My principal point is that classifications need to be consistent to be defensible and credible. As part of Bend's urban growth boundary expansion evaluation I commented on how the Miller Tree Farm was not classified as forest land even though it was, and how the State's section 11 was classified as forest land when it is not. With irrigation, almost all land in Central Oregon is farmland except a rock pile, very steep slopes, or lands with no possible future access to irrigation. It would be inconsistent and indefensible to have a different classification for these lands if they happen to be located around the perimeter of a city. Farm uses can include crops, hay and grass, and even honeybee production. Re-classification cannot reduce the capacity of surrounding properties for farming. Farm and forest lands are also important wildlife habitat that we keep reducing with development. Juniper may become forest land with improvements in utilization technology. Land use and climate change mitigation policies need to direct future development towards redevelopment of the interiors or central areas of cities, and not continued sprawl and suburban expansion.

You the County Commissioners are our direct representatives. For over two years now, we the residents of Deschutes River Woods and its neighborhood association, members of Save the Lava, residents from other unincorporated neighborhoods and environmental groups have been coming before you to advocate for the adoption of a grading ordinance. We have collected over 400 signatures, attended numerous county planning meetings and met with county staff so often that many of them know us by first name. Now is the time to hear our voices! The grading ordinance we ask for is just common sense in a county were the growth rate of unincorporated residential communities is out pacing that of the larger cities. An ordinance will establish clearly defined parameters and guidelines for grading within residential neighborhoods and significantly reduce the risks and liability for developers, builders and property owners. This is why all cities and many counties already have grading ordinances in place. Because Deschutes County does not one, it has created a large grey area that unscrupulous developers are more than willing to take advantage of. The only opposition to a grading ordinance has been the legal counsel for a development company that has already taken advantage of this grey area and walked right through the loopholes. Their only argument was that an ordinance was not needed. If this were the case, the issue of the Tumalo ski lake development would not have made headlines. The County has stated repeatedly that they take citizen input seriously. For two years, we the citizens of unincorporated Deschutes County have repeatedly pleaded our case to County Planners and Commissioners. The County Planning Commission has heard us and overwhelmingly voted to make the grading ordinance a high priority, we are asking you to hear us as well and approve this high priority item on the 2018/2019 workplan.

There are two areas where I would like to offer specific comments: code enforcement and the approach to agricultural lands. As to Code Enforcement, it is good to see this emphasized more than in the past and to see a more proactive approach in some cases. Sadly, there are far too many cases where land owners have no intention of following the code. So it is good to see that there will be clear goals and a tracking report. And I urge you to make sure that new land use approvals are denied to those with code violations. Unfortunately, the plan contains a proposal to re-evaluate agricultural lands, presumably to reclassify many EFU lands to a "non -resource" designation. This concept was rejected by a citizen outreach process some years back, and it is still a bad idea. Our EFU lands are not only vital to our local agricultural economy, but also insure that deer and elk have ways to migrate across the landscape, even where land is privately owned. These lands are an important resource to Central Oregon, and they should not be reclassified to permit development. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. I would like to attend the hearing, but I came back from our trip with a very bad cold which I do not want to pass on to others.

Central Oregon LandWatch submitted comments on the Work Plan to the Planning Commission, several of which we reiterate below. We also have a new procedural concern with the Work Plan item "Comprehensive Plan Amendment to allow new Rural Industrial," also discussed below. Agricultural lands re-evaluation and potential re -designation Just as we commented to the Planning Commission, we recommend the County do not initiate an agricultural lands re-evaluation and potential re -designation. In the interest of efficient use of County resources, we recommend that the County wait to see the judicial resolution of the Douglas County case before proceeding on this issue. To the extent the County seeks to correct any potential mapping errors in its Comprehensive Plan, the County should follow the process outlined in ORS 215.788. There is no indication the lands of Deschutes County are incorrectly mapped. The last time the County examined the issue, in 2014 and 2015, it was apparently decided that no mapping errors exist in Deschutes County. At its May 10 deliberations, the Planning Commission agreed that initiating this Work Plan item at this time is unwise because it is fraught with legal uncertainty. The Planning Commission recommended waiting to see the outcome of pending significant developments, including the resolution of the Douglas County case, the 2019 legislature, and potential LCDC rulemaking. Deschutes County is home to the fastest growing metropolitan area in the western United States. In this context, LandWatch questions the need for re-evaluating and potentially re - designating agricultural lands. Allowing greater development on the County's agricultural lands is unnecessary for economic development. If the County seeks to plan for where future urban 2 development should occur, we recommend the County instead direct its resources to growth management coordination and the study and identification of lands suitable for urban reserve areas. Comprehensive Plan Amendment to allow new Rural Industrial Designations In April, CDD sought input from the public on which items should be prioritized, added, or removed in its draft Work Plan for fiscal year 2018-19. One of these draft Work Plan items entitled "Deschutes Junction" would "initiate amendment to the Comprehensive Plan that allows for new rural industrial designations." Sometime in April or May, after the Planning Commission work session (April 12) and hearing (April 26) on the draft CDD Work Plan, but before the Planning Commission deliberations (May 10), the County initiated this Work Plan item. Accordingly, the Planning Commission did not deliberate on this draft item as it did with all other draft Work Plan items. What was the purpose or value of seeking public input and a Planning Commission recommendation on this item when it was initiated before the draft Work Plan was approved? CDD staff has stated that this item is intended to address the desires of one individual landowner in the Deschutes Junction area. Staff also disclosed to the Planning Commission that this legislative amendment has been coordinated with that individual landowner's attorney. That landowner has twice received approval from the County to re -designate his property, and those approvals were twice remanded or reversed by the Land Use Board of Appeals because those approvals did not comply with state law. There are currently hundreds of acres of land zoned for industrial use, including large lot industrial land, inside the urban growth boundaries and unincorporated communities of Deschutes County where such intensive development belongs. LandWatch does not believe it is good policy for the County to initiate a County -wide legislative process to achieve the goals of one individual landowner. LandWatch believes it is worse policy to seek public input on a draft Work Plan, and ask the Planning Commission to provide a recommendation, but to initiate one individual item while that draft Work Plan is pending. This opaque process does not follow either statewide planning Goal 1 (Citizen Involvement) or Goal 2 (Land Use Planning). Growth Management Coordination & Affordable Housing Strategy LandWatch is pleased to see that these two Work Plan items have been combined into one. Deschutes County is in need of affordable housing, and the proper location for new affordable housing is within urban growth boundaries. LandWatch supports any County efforts to coordinate with cities to develop and implement growth management plans to plan for population growth. In particular, we support any potential urban reserve areas planning process in coordination with the City of Bend to provide long-term certainty about future potential urban growth boundary expansions. 3 Wildfire Mitigation We support the proposed Work Plan item to consider implementing amendments to Deschutes County code and policy regarding wildfire mitigation. The County should incorporate higher standards for wildfire risk found in model code from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), including NFPA 1141 and 1144, and the International Code Council (ICC), including the ICC Fire Prevention and Control Plan and International Fire Code. These model codes would require most new development to achieve fire risk mitigation standards (including access, building separation, fire protection, water supply, defensible space zones, use of non-combustible construction materials, and complete hazard mitigation assessments and wildfire mitigation and action plans) prior to approval. The County's wildfire risk will likely remain high as our climate becomes more arid and variable. Development in areas of high wildfire risk creates unnecessary risk to residents, firefighters, and first responders, and also results in the use of public money to protect private property in the likely event of wildfire. Deschutes County should prioritize implementing code and policy changes to prevent risks to public safety, minimize private property damage, and prevent public firefighting expenditures.

We are writing to express support for the following key planning initiatives outlined in the work plan: 1. Agricultural lands re-evaluation and potential re -designation - Currently demand is greatly outstripping supply in both the area's residential and commercial/industrial markets. Considering the need that exists for affordable housing and low inventory at various price points, it is prudent to re-evaluate agricultural lands that are not viable for farming to identify the best use for these properties and determine if they represent opportunities for development or other uses. 2. Affordable housing - In the midst of an affordable housing crisis, a well-defined housing strategy for the county is essential. We would welcome the opportunity to be involved in the development of such a strategy, and we are happy to serve as a resource and offer any expertise, input or data that might be helpful. We also strongly support CDD's recommendation to participate in state-wide committees focused on advancing policies to allow rural accessory dwelling units (ADUs). ADUs can provide much-needed affordable housing options in the county by introducing a new housing typology capable of coming online quickly with relatively few barriers to entry for property owners. We also encourage the County in its role as a partner to support and encourage cities, such as Bend, to expeditiously establish urban reserves. As you know, urban reserves allow communities to proactively plan for continued growth and future UGB expansions. Thank you for your service to Deschutes County, as well as your consideration of the local real estate community's input.

COBA has previously asked the Board to consider adding work on urban reserves for the City of Bend in its Work Plan. It is our understanding that CDD is also preparing for a Comprehensive Plan update in 2020 to coincide with the census, and so we believe any items included in future Work Plans should be geared towards accomplishing that goal or, at least, positioning that process for success. Like last year's plan, the Work Plan contemplates work to review and adopt a grading ordinance. We oppose this item in the Work Plan and ask that the Board not include it at this time. We understand that Planning Commission has commented on a potential grading ordinance. Deschutes County currently allows excavation and grading through its "on-site construction" exemption from the definition of "surface mining." This allows permitted uses in zones to be established, and to review the impacts of those uses under the relevant land use procedure. Adopting a grading ordinance would create additional regulatory hurdles to development and introduce a new land use decision into all development projects - increasing staff time, costs of development, and additional opportunity for appeal. As 1 am sure you are aware, staff is already working at full+ capacity. A grading ordinance would have the direct effect of increasing the cost and reducing the supply of attainable housing in our county. Development in Deschutes County is difficult enough. Please do not increase the cost and regulatory burden to development in Deschutes County, We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the Work Plan and the work that the CDD does on behalf of all citizens within Deschutes County.

Most of us have chosen the Bend area because of the beauty of its landscape, its open spaces, the rural atmosphere, its wildlife. Open spaces created by agricultural land provide beautiful views, peace, wildlife corridors, wildlife habitat, cropland, jobs for central Oregon. Redesignating agricultural land puts our way of life in jeopardy and that of wildlife. It will destroy the very reason most of us chose to live here. Development of these lands will destroy the beauty and feel of the area. It will become a city/county like any other, packed with houses, blacktop, electric poles, light pollution, noise, car fumes, businesses and so on. The voice of the coyote, the singing of the spring frogs and toads, the melody of the songbird, the shrill call of the bird of prey, the silent movements of the deer will be gone. The way of life we moved here for will be gone. To develop is a decision that will last forever, no going back, once the land is gone its gone. The native plants destroyed, the wildlife evicted or perished, the sights and sounds of open space gone. The way of life in the Bend area will become like every other city or county that has been divided and subdivided and perhaps divided again. The flavor of this mountain town that so many tourists, vacationers and locals cherish and are attracted to will be gone. The smell of the juniper, the smell of the sage, the smell of the pine gone, the smell of fresh cut hay gone. Agricultural lands are very important not only to our economy but for the jobs they provide, the open space they provide for migrating deer and elk, the food and shelter they provide for wildlife, the microclimates created, the water sources for wildlife, the brush thickets and trees for nests and shelter. It is of utmost importance to preserve and protect the dwindling open space of agricultural land, for the wildlife that depend upon it for survival but also for our own peace and spirit. A place where nature and humans can co -exist providing for each others needs. It's our responsibility to protect all the life that lives here.

I love the fact that I can buy so much food that is locally grown now as compared to ten years ago. This trend needs to continue. It is healthy for us and the entire planet. It is a sustainable way to produce food. Please DO NOT reclassify our agricultural lands as non -resource lands. That would make no sense at all.
