Background
Historic buildings and sites connect us to the past and teach us how people in different eras
managed resources and worked within their surroundings. Interesting information can be
gleaned through an examination of significant buildings, rock shelters, cemeteries and individual
graves, ranches, trails, wagon train routes, townsites, mill sites, fish hatcheries, river crossings,
bridges, canals, dams, historic roads and other unique resources. These resources enrich the
community by providing tangible evidence of our heritage.
Historic resources are recognized by Statewide Planning Goal 5, Natural Resources, Scenic
Views and Historic Areas and Open Spaces, and Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-023.
The Statewide Goal and OAR Fecernmend, but de net require,require basic demolition and
relocation review of historic resources on the National Register of Historic Places and
recommend the County to inventory and protect other local historic and cultural sites.
Deschutes County Code Chapter 2.28 — Historic Preservation and Historic Landmarks
Commission implements OAR 660-023-200 as required by the State of Oregon.
Historic Designations
In 1979 the County inventoried potential historic and cultural sites in the Resource Element.
The 1979 Plan included goals and policies for protection of historic resources as well as
provisions that the County establish a Historical Landmarks Commission and adopt an
ordinance to protect designated historic sites.
On September 17, 1980 the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance PL-21, which
established a Historical Landmarks Commission and created a process to evaluate, designate
and regulate historic structures.
The Historic Landmarks Commission subsequently, and over time, evaluated proposed historic
sites. The resulting inventory of historically designated sites can be found in Chapter S. This
inventory will be reviewed as part of the Goal 5 review as described in the Goal 5 section of
this Plan. Starting in 1997, all historic and cultural designations have been initiated at the
request of property owners through the Comprehensive Plan text amendment process.

Future of Cultural and Historic Resources
Deschutes County supports the voluntary preservation of significant cultural and historical
sites. Going forward there are a few issues regarding cultural and historical resources that need
to be addressed. The first is to clarify that the County's role is to cooperate with the Historic
Landmarks Commission. That body contains persons with expertise in historic and cultural
preservation.

Another concern is that when cultural resources are discovered at a project site it can create
significant delays. This can be addressed by creating a proactive process in conjunction with
local tribes, for protecting cultural resources while not impacting on -going work.

CHAPTER 2.28 17 (4404205/2020)
Exhibit E - Ord. 2020-006
FINDINGS
I. BACKGROUND
Historic resources are recognized by Statewide Planning Goal 5, Natural Resources,
Scenic Views and Historic Areas and Open Spaces, and Oregon Administrative Rule
(OAR) 660-023-0200. The Statewide Goal and OAR require basic protections for sites
listed on the National Register of Historic Places and recommend the County to inventory
and protect other historic or cultural sites.'
The Board of County Commissioners (Board) adopted Ordinance PL-21 on September
17, 1980 to establish the Deschutes County Historical Landmarks Commission and create
a process to evaluate, designate and regulate historic resources throughout the rural
county. The Historic Landmarks Commission evaluated proposed historic landmarks over
time. The resulting local inventory of historical resources and National Register of Historic
Places can be found in Chapter 5 of the County Comprehensive Plan. Resources listed
on the National Register of Historic Places were not originally listed in the local inventory.2
Deschutes County Code (DCC) Chapter 2.28 — Historic Preservation and Historic
Landmarks Commission — provides procedures for protecting designated local and
National Register historic resources.
2017 Amendments to OAR 660-023-0200
The historic resources rule — OAR 660-023-0200 — includes procedural requirements for
surveying sites, evaluating integrity, and considering whether and how to protect historic
and cultural resources. The State amended the historic resources rule in February 2017
to require a base level of protection for National Register Resources and provide a more
usable and clear list of standards for local governments to follow if they have an
established historic preservation ordinance.
The updates include new and amended definitions, clearer procedural steps, and more
detail regarding review of applications to demolish or relocate resources listed in the
National Register of Historic Places. Some procedural requirements have been added or
removed. Unclear sections have been clarified. Protection standards for resources listed
on the National Register of Historic Places are required for local governments to comply
with regardless of what the local ordinance provides.
OAR 660-023-0200 was amended in 2017 to require local jurisdictions review demolition and relocation
permits of buildings/structures/etc. listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Prior to 2017, the
State only recommended protections to historic resources.
2 This was identified as a concern in the Comprehensive Plan Section 2.11 — Cultural and Historic
Resources. Policy 2.11.3(a) encourages the County to develop and maintain a comprehensive list of sites
on the National Register.
List Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 1 of 14
2020 Amendments to County Code
Deschutes County decided to bring the historic preservation ordinance up to standard
with the amended OAR in the 2019-2020 Certified Local Government (CLG) grant. The
proposed project was supported by the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), which
administers the CLG grant program. County staff initiated the process in February 2020
to audit the current historic preservation ordinance and identify components that required
updates. The HLC held a work session on May 4, 2020 to review the proposed
amendments. A public hearing occurred on June 1, 2020 to receive public comments
regarding the amendments. Subsequently, on June 15, the HLC made a recommendation
to approve the amendments to the Board.

FINDING: The application was initiated by the Deschutes County Planning Division at
the direction of the Board. This criterion is met.
4. Section 22.12.040. Hearings Body
A. The following shall serve as hearings or review body for
legislative changes in this order.
1. The Planning Commission.
2. The Board of County Commissioners.
FINDING: Because the proposed amendments are specific to historic preservation, the
Historic Landmarks Commission held a public hearing on June 1, 2020. The Planning
Commission reviewed the Historic Landmarks Commission's recommendation, which will
be followed by a Board hearing.
B. Any legislative change initiated by the Board of County
Commissioners shall be reviewed by the Planning Commission
prior to action being taken by the Board of Commissioners.
FINDING: This criterion is met as the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed
amendments prior to a public hearing before the Board.
5. Section 22.12.050 Final Decision
All legislative changes shall be adopted by ordinance
FINDING: Land use application file no. 247-20-000253-PA and 247-20-000254-TA are
implemented by Ordinance Nos. 2020-006. This criterion is met.
B. STATEWIDE PLANNING GOALS
The parameters for evaluating these specific amendments are based on an adequate
factual base and supportive evidence demonstrating consistency with Statewide Planning
Goals. The following findings demonstrate that Ordinance 2020-006 complies with
applicable Statewide Planning Goals and State Law.
Goal 1, Citizen Involvement is met through this adoption process because the
proposed amendments received noticed public hearings before the Historic
Landmarks Commission and the Board.
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 6 of 14
Goal 2, Land Use Planning is met because ORS 197.610 allows local governments
to initiate post acknowledgment plan amendments (PAPAs). A Department of Land
Conservation and Development (DLCD) 35-day notice was initiated on March 30,
2020.3 This FINDINGS document provides the adequate factual basis and
documented analysis for this plan update.
Goal 3, Agricultural Lands and Goal 4, Forest Lands are not applicable because
the proposed amendments will not have an effect on the operation and/or preservation
of agricultural or forest lands. The proposed amendments impact the administration
of historic resource protection, they do not modify allowed uses or where uses can be
located. Some historic resources are located on agricultural and forest lands, but all
historic resources were developed well before the development of the Statewide
Planning Goals or land use regulations were adopted in Deschutes County.
Goal 5, Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces will be
met because the purpose of the proposed amendment is to bring the County's historic
preservation ordinance up-to-date and in compliance with the updated State historic
preservation rule (i.e., OAR 660-023-0200). The text amendments mirror the model
ordinance which was informed by the 2017 amendments to OAR 660-023-0200.4
Goal 6, Air, Water and Land Resources Quality and Goal 7, Natural Hazards are
not applicable because the County has proposed amendments that effect the
administration of historic resource preservation. No development or land use changes
are proposed that impact air, water and land resource qualities or natural hazards.
Chapters 17, 18, and 19 of the County Code regulate uses, including uses within
historic structures or properties. Protection standards for air, water and land resource
quality and limitation of development in areas subject to natural hazard are provided
in these chapters, not the historic preservation ordinance (DCC 2.28). Again, the
historic preservation ordinance does not regulate uses or where a structure can be
located. Thus, Goal 6 is not applicable.
Goal 8, Recreational Needs is not applicable because the County is proposing
amendments to the County's administration of historic preservation. No development
or land use changes are being proposed that impact lands designated with
recreational resources.
Goal 9, Economic Development is not applicable because the proposed
amendments do not impact the ability of cities or counties to have enough land
available to realize economic growth and development opportunities. The
amendments pertain to the administration of historic preservation.
3 Deschutes County completed periodic review on January 23, 2003. The Comprehensive Plan Update
was adopted on November 9, 2011.
4 SHPO and DLCD created the model ordinance, which is available here:
https://www.oregon.gov/oprd/OH/pages/clg.aspx
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 7 of 14
Goal 10, Housing is not applicable because, unlike municipalities, unincorporated
areas are not obligated to fulfill certain housing requirements.
Goal 11, Public Facilities is not applicable because the County is proposing
amendments to the administration of historic preservation. No development or land
use changes are being proposed that impact public facilities.
Goal 12, Transportation is not applicable because the County is proposing
amendments to the administration of historic preservation. No development or land
use changes are being proposed that impact transportation facilities.
Goal 13, Energy Conservation is not applicable because the County is proposing
amendments to the administration of historic preservation. No development or land
use changes are proposed that pertain to energy conservation. For example, the
proposed amendments do not prevent a historic -landmark property owner from
applying for permits to increase energy efficiency. A property owner is not precluded
from increasing their energy conservation if historic design standards are met. Again,
the proposed amendments are limited to the administration of historic preservation —
they do not increase or decrease allowed uses or similar standards.
Goal 14, Urbanization is not applicable because no expansion of an urban area is
proposed with these amendments.
Goals 15 through 19 are not applicable to any amendments to the County's
comprehensive plan because the County has none of those types of lands.
C. OAR 660-023 PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPLYING WITH
GOAL 5
OAR 660-023-0200 Historic Preservation Rule
(2) Relationship of Historic Resource Protection to the Standard Goal 5
Process.
(a) Local governments are not required to amend acknowledged plans or
land use regulations in order to provide new or amended inventories,
resource lists or programs regarding historic resources, except as
specified in section (8). Local governments are encouraged to inventory
and designate historic resources and must adopt historic preservation
regulations to protect significant historic resources.
FINDING: Deschutes County has an adopted historic preservation ordinance.5 The
purpose of the proposed amendments is to comply with the recently updated OAR 660-
023-0200(8).
5 See DCC 2.28
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 8 of 14
(b) The requirements of the standard Goal 5 process in OAR 660-023-0030
through 660-023-0050, in conjunction with the requirements of this rule,
apply when local governments choose to amend acknowledged historic
preservation plans and regulations.
(c) Local governments are not required to apply the ESEE process
pursuant to OAR 660-023-0040 in order to determine a program to protect
historic resources.
FINDING: The County's response to the requirements of the standard Goal 5 process in
OAR 660-023-0030 through 660-023-0050 are provided below.
OAR 660-023-0030
This section speaks to the inventory process to locate, evaluate, and potential adoption
of significant resources. The proposed amendments are unique in regards to this section
because they are intended to bring the County's historic preservation ordinance up-to-
date. There will be no collection or survey of potential resources because the County
already has an adopted historic or cultural resource list.6 Thus, there is no need to
evaluate potential resources for their significance. The adopted resource list has already
been deemed significant, which is why each resource is on the County's resource list or
on the National Register of Historic Places. Again, the proposed amendments seek to
amend the historic preservation ordinance to comply with the 2017 updated OARs,
including this specific section.
OAR 660-023-0040
Not applicable as provided above in sub (c).
OAR 660-023-0050
This section speaks to the various programs to achieve Goal 5 and refers to OAR 660-
023-0040. Staff finds this section is not applicable because the proposed amendments
do not modify conflicting uses. The amendments pertain to the administration of historic
preservation in order to comply with the 2017 updated OARs relevant to historic
resources.
(3) Comprehensive Plan Contents. Local comprehensive plans should foster
and encourage the preservation, management, and enhancement of
significant historic resources within the jurisdiction in a manner conforming
with, but not limited by, the provisions of ORS 358.605. In developing local
historic preservation programs, local governments should follow the
recommendations in the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines
for Archeology and Historic Preservation, produced by the National Park
Service. Local governments should develop a local historic context
6 Comprehensive Plan Section 5.9
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 9 of 14
statement and adopt a historic preservation plan and a historic preservation
ordinance in conjunction with inventorying historic resources.
FINDING: The County has maintained policies and provisions to encourage historic
preservation since 1980 (i.e., a historic preservation ordinance). The County's historic
preservation ordinance is in compliance with ORS 358.605 which speaks to the
importance of preventing the destruction of historic or cultural resources and the
recommended development of preservation plans. The County's historic preservation
ordinance requires coordinated review with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and
Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation. This requirement does not change
in the proposed amendments. While the County does not have a formally -adopted local
historic context statement, it is not a requirement in this situation.'
(4) Inventorying Historic Resources. When a local government chooses to
inventory historic resources, it must do so pursuant to OAR 660-023-0030,
this section, and sections (5) through (7). Local governments are
encouraged to provide opportunities for community -wide participation as
part of the inventory process. Local governments are encouraged to
complete the inventory in a manner that satisfies the requirements for such
studies published by the Oregon State Historic Preservation Office and
provide the inventory to that office in a format compatible with the Oregon
Historic Sites Database.
(5) Evaluating and Determining Significance...
FINDING: The County is not proposing to inventory historic resources and, thus, is not
required to evaluate or determine the significance of a resource. The proposed
amendments pertain to the administration of historic preservation.
(6) Designating Locally Significant Historic Resources...
FINDING: The County is not proposing to designate a Locally Significant Historic
Resource. While the proposed amendments include the addition of National Register
Resources to the Comprehensive Plan, such resources are not categorized as Locally
Significant Resources as defined in the applicable rule.
(7) Historic Resource Protection Ordinances. Local governments must adopt
land use regulations to protect locally significant historic resources
designated under section (6). This section replaces OAR 660-023-0050.
Historic protection ordinances should be consistent with standards and
guidelines recommended in the Standards and Guidelines for Archeology
and Historic Preservation published by the U.S. Secretary of the Interior,
produced by the National Park Service.
FINDING: The County has had a historic resource ordinance since 1980. DCC 2.28,
formerly PL-21, protects Locally Significant Historic Resources. However, as stated
There is a possibility of applying future CLG grant funds to creating such documents.
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 10 of 14
above, the existing proposal does not include the designation of additional Locally
Significant Historic Resources.
(8) National Register Resources are significant historic resources. For these
resources, local governments are not required to follow the process
described in OAR 660-023-0030 through 660-023-0050 or sections (4) through
(6). Instead, a local government.
(a) Must protect National Register Resources, regardless of whether the
resources are designated in the local plan or land use regulations, by
review of demolition or relocation that includes, at minimum, a public
hearing process that results in approval, approval with conditions, or
denial and considers the following factors: condition, historic integrity,
age, historic significance, value to the community, economic
consequences, design or construction rarity, and consistency with and
consideration of other policy objectives in the acknowledged
comprehensive plan. Local jurisdictions may exclude accessory
structures and non-contributing resources within a National Register
nomination;
FINDING: The purpose of the amendments is to comply with this specific section. The
existing County historic preservation ordinance does not differentiate between Locally
Significant Historic Resources and National Register Resources (i.e., sites and districts
listed on the National Register of Historic Places). This means a National Register
Resource receives the same protections as a Locally Significant Historic Resource. The
County has proposed amendments to County Code 2.28 (historic preservation) in order
to comply with the 2017 updates to this OAR section and, thus, specifically define what
type of protections are provided to National Register Resources.
The proposed amendments define National Register Resources and creates two
categories for such resources:
Resources listed before February 23, 2017
Resources listed on or after February 23, 2017
Both categories receive certain protections as required by this rule. Resources listed
before the aforementioned date receive the same level of review as Locally Significant
Historic Resources (i.e., alteration, relocation, demolition). Demolition and relocation
proposals for resources listed after said date are required to have a public hearing that
reviews the condition, integrity, age, significance, etc. of the resource. Again, the purpose
of the proposed amendments is to comply with the 2017 updates to this OAR section,
and, specifically, the requirement to require a basic level of protections for National
Register Resources.
(b) May apply additional protection measures. For a National Register
Resource listed in the National Register of Historic Places after the
effective date of this rule, additional protection measures may be applied
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 11 of 14
only upon considering, at a public hearing, the historic characteristics
identified in the National Register nomination; the historic significance of
the resource; the relationship to the historic context statement and
historic preservation plan contained in the comprehensive plan, if they
exist; the goals and policies in the comprehensive plan; and the effects
of the additional protection measures on the ability of property owners to
maintain and modify features of their property. Protection measures
applied by a local government to a National Register resource listed
before the effective date of this rule continue to apply until the local
government amends or removes them; and
FINDING: The County — at this time — is not proposing to apply additional protection
measures other than those already provided to National Register of Historic Places.
(c) Must amend its land use regulations to protect National Register
Resources in conformity with subsections (a) and (b). Until such
regulations are adopted, subsections (a) and (b) shall apply directly to
National Register Resources.
FINDING: The proposed amendments specifically address this requirement as they
update the County's historic preservation ordinance to conform to the applicable OARs
(660-023-0200(8)).
(9) Removal of a historic resource from a resource list by a local
government is a land use decision and is subject to this section
FINDING: The proposal does not involve the removal of a historic resource form the
resource list. That said, the standards found in this section are included in the text
amendments to comply with the latest OARs.
(10) A local government shall not issue a permit for demolition or
modification of a locally significant historic resource during the 120-day
period following:
FINDING: The proposal does not involve the removal of a historic resource form the
resource list. That said, the standards found in this section are included in the text
amendments in order to comply with the latest OARs.
D. CONSISTENCY WITH DESCHUTES COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Deschutes County updated its Comprehensive Plan on August 10, 2011.
Chapter 2, Resource Management
Section 2.11, Cultural and Historic Resources
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 12 of 14
Goal 1 Promote the preservation of designated historic and cultural
resources through education, incentives and voluntary programs.
Policy 2.11.1 The Historic Landmarks Commission shall take the lead in
promoting historic and cultural resource preservation as defined in DCC
2.28.
a. Support incentives for private landowners to protect and restore historic
resources.
b. Support the Historic Landmarks Commission to promote educational
programs to inform the public of the values of historic preservation.
c. Support improved training for the Historic Landmarks Commission.
FINDING: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and text amendments are consistent with
Policy 2.11.1. The HLC created the work program that provided direction for staff to
update DCC 2.28 to comply with the State amendments to the historic preservation rule.
The proposed amendments will promote historic and cultural resource preservation by
providing a clear process for administering historic resource designations and protections.
Policy 2.11.2 Coordinate cultural and historic preservation with the Oregon
State Historic Preservation Office.
a. Maintain Deschutes County as a Certified Local Government.
b. Encourage private property owners to coordinate with the State Historic
Preservation Office.
FINDING: The proposed Comprehensive Plan and text amendments are consistent with
Policy 2.11.2. The State Historic Preservation Office and the Department of Land
Conservation and Development created a model ordinance for historic preservation that
complied with the latest revisions to the historic preservation rule in OAR 660-023-0200.
Staff utilized the model ordinance to audit Chapter 2.28 and develop text that needed to
be included in a historic preservation ordinance to comply with the State historic
preservation rule. The State Historic Preservation Office was consulted and provided
guidance on the proposed amendments.
The proposed amendments bring Chapter 2.28 into compliance with the historic
preservation rule, and, thus, maintains Deschutes County's status as a Certified Local
Government. The CLG status has certain requirements for a local jurisdiction. The
County's CLG status could be in jeopardy if the historic preservation ordinance is not up-
to-date and out of compliance. Thus, there is a need for the proposed amendments.
The sub -policy to encourage private property owners to coordinate with the State Historic
Preservation Office will not be impacted by the proposed amendments.
Policy 2.11.3 Encourage the preservation of lands with significant historic or
cultural resources.
a. Develop and maintain a comprehensive list of sites on the National
Register of Historic Places.
Exhibit F to Ordinance 2020-006 Page 13 of 14
b. Review County Code and revise as needed to provide incentives and
adequate regulations to preserve sites listed on the Statewide Goal 5
historic and cultural inventory.
FINDING: The Comprehensive Plan and text amendments are consistent with Policy
2.11.3. The amended text of the preservation ordinance will encourage preservation of
historic and cultural resources by way of clearly:
Defining terms
Listing what resources are protected
Explaining how resources are protected
The proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments develop and maintain a list of
landmarks on the National Register of Historic Places, something that has not been done
before. The proposed amendments directly accomplish Policy 2.11.3(b) as the process
involves a thorough review of County Code and, subsequently, a list of amendments to
bring the County's historic preservation ordinance up to standard with the newly updated
historic preservation rule and the State's model ordinance. The updated procedures and
requirements more adequately preserve historic landmarks listed in the historic resource
list.

II. SUMMARY OF MINOR CHANGES TO AMENDMENTS
The Board directed staff to add the following text to the proposed amendments in order to clarify that a
majority of the requirements and procedures described in DCC 2.28 are mandated by the state in OAR 660-
023-200. Added text is depicted in underlined, red text.
Comprehensive Plan: Section 2.11 Cultural and Historic Resources
Background
Historic buildings and sites connect us to the past and teach us how people in different eras managed
resources and worked within their surroundings. Interesting information can be gleaned through an
examination of significant buildings, rock shelters, cemeteries and individual graves, ranches, trails,
wagon train routes, townsites, mill sites, fish hatcheries, river crossings, bridges, canals, dams, historic
roads and other unique resources. These resources enrich the community by providing tangible
evidence of our heritage.
Historic resources are recognized by Statewide Planning Goal 5, Natural Resources, Scenic Views and
Historic Areas and Open Spaces, and Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-023. The Statewide Goal
