January 26, 2022 BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MEETING Page 3 of 3 1 1 I I ry�C'- MEETING DATE: Wednesday, January 26, 2022 SUBJECT: Public Hearing: Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) Plan Amendment and Zone Change RECOMMENDED MOTION: Hearings Officer recommends approval of file no. 247-21-000400-PA, 401-ZC pursuant to DCC 22.28.030. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: The Board will rnnduct a public hearing on lanuary 26. 2022 to consider a request for a Plan Amendment and Zone Change (file no. 247-21-000400-PA, 401-ZQ for a 36.65-acre property to the East of the City of Bend, submitted by CO/D. The address associated with the subject property is 61781 Ward Rd, Bend, OR 97702. BUDGET IMPACTS: None ATTENDANCE: Tarik Rawlings, Associate Planner � 4 COMMUNITY t f MEMORANDUM TO: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners (Board) FROM: Tarik Rawlings, Associate Planner DATE: January 19, 2022 SUBJECT: Public Hearing - Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) Plan Amendment and Zone Change The Board of County Commissioners (Board) is conducting a public hearing on January 26, 2022 to consider a request for a Plan Amendment and Zone Change (file nos. 247-21-000400-PA, 401-ZC) for a 36.65-acre property to the east of the City of Bend. This will be the second of two required public hearings. I. BACKGROUND The applicant, COID, is requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to redesignate the subject property from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the property from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The applicant's reasoning for the request is that the property was mistakenly identified as farmland, does not contain high -value soils or other characteristics of high value farmland, and therefore should be redesignated and rezoned for residential use. The applicant has provided a soil study that identifies non -high value soils on a majority (-64%) of the subject property. Additionally, the applicant has provided findings within the burden of proof that demonstrate compliance with state and local requirements and policies. II. PUBLIC COMMENT AND HEARINGS OFFICER RECOMMENDATION Staff received twelve (12) public comment letters from neighboring property owners and residents located within the surrounding area of the subject property in connection with the initial Hearings Officer public hearing. A thirteenth (13t") written public comment was received on January 18, 2022 and is provided to the Board in the agenda packet for the subject public hearing. These comments expressed concern and opposition related to growth impacts, wildlife concerns, open space values, recreational access, ability to farm, traffic impacts along 27t" Street, driveway access to the subject property, property addressing, property value impacts, impacts to irrigation water sources and availability, and the potential of marijuana production on the property. The initial public hearing was held on August 31, 2021. On October 13, 2021, the Deschutes County Hearings Officer issued a decision evaluating compliance with all applicable review criteria and recommending approval of the proposed Plan Amendment and Zone Change. III. BOARD CONSIDERATION As the property includes lands designated for agricultural use, Deschutes County Code 22.28.030(C) requires the application to be heard de novo before the Board, regardless of the determination of the Hearings Officer. Per DCC Section 22.20.040(D), the review of the proposed quasi-judicial Plan Amendment and Zone Change is not subject to the 150-day review period typically associated with land use decisions. The record is available for inspection at the Planning Division and at the following link: 247-21-000400-PA 401-ZC Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) Plan Amendment and Zone Change I Deschutes County Oregon. Moreover, the complete record will be available at the public hearing. IV. NEXT STEPS At the conclusion of the public hearing, the Board can choose one of the following options: • Continue the hearing to a date and time certain; • Close the oral portion of the hearing and leave the written record open to a date and time certain; • Close the hearing and commence deliberations.

Learn why this is important [EXTERNAL EMAIL] Tarik, Thanks for your time on the phone today. What follows is a statement for the upcoming public hearing. I hope to attend in person but want to make sure my voice is heard regardless: I would like to express my concerns about the rezoning of the land east of the Larkspur neighborhood. This rezoning, taken to its logical conclusion: That the land will be developed into housing and thus effectively double the size of the Larkspur neighborhood, is a negative thing for residents such as myself. Therefore, I strongly oppose this rezoning for the following reasons: l . Rezoning will likely lead to a loss of the undeveloped open space to the east. This is a beautiful resource for residents that offers a sense of connection to the environment and habitat for wildlife. 2. Rezoning will likely increase traffic throughout our neighborhood thus reducing quality of life and safety. All traffic accessing this area will have to pass through the existing neighborhood. This is especially relevant when considering turning onto and off of 27th street which is already problematic: There are no turn lanes or traffic lights on this two lane country road and any vehicle turning into Larkspur must slow down and hold up lots of traffic risking rear -end collisions. Exiting the neighborhood can be similarly problematic. Rezoning could effectively double the number of vehicles coming and going from Larkspur. 3. Rezoning will likely result in increased noise. Heavy construction in this area could continue for years. 4. All of these issues will ultimately lead to a reduced quality of life. My partner and I chose to call Larkspur home because it is a quiet, safe, and semi -rural neighborhood with a high quality of life and easy access to the rest of Bend. These reasons are well -stated in the 2030 Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan for Rural Growth Management and I would like to remind the Board of Commissioners that it is their responsibility to: "find the balance between protecting rural values and protecting property rights... people [have] expressed concern of the level of new development that has been allowed... Too much development can lead to the destruction of the qualities of life that bring people to Deschutes County." And that: "Generally counties are directed to protect farms, forests, and other rural resources like wildlife while limiting new rural development." Thank you for your time and consideration, Sincerely, Joshua Janes REVIEWED LEGAL COUNSEL For Recording Stamp Only BEFORE THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON An Ordinance Amending Deschutes County Code Title 23, the Deschutes County Comprehensive * ORDINANCE NO. 2022-001 Plan, to Change the Comprehensive Plan Map Designation for Certain Property From Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area.

FINDINGS OF FACT A. LOCATION: The subject property has a situs address of 61781 Ward Road, Bend, and is further identified as Tax Lot 1000 on Assessor's Map 18-12-02.2 B. LOT OF RECORD: Tax Lot 1000 is 36.65 acres in size and has not previously been verified as a legal lot of record. Per DCC 22.04.040 Verifying Lots of Record, lot of record verification is required for certain permits: B. Permits requiring verification 1. Unless an exception applies pursuant to subsection (B)(2) below, 2 Several commentators expressed concern regarding the address of the subject property, particularly related to future access if and when the property is developed in the future. Staff stated at the public hearing that an address coordinator will be assigned with respect to future development permit application(s) and the address(es) will be vetted through emergency services. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 2 of 57 verifying a lot parcel pursuant to subsection (C) shall be required to the issuance of the following permits: a. Any land use permit for a unit of land in the Exclusive Farm Use Zones (DCC Chapter 18.16), Forest Use Zone - F1 (DCC Chapter 18 36), or Forest Use Zone - F2 (DCC Chapter 18.40); b. Any permit for a lot or parcel that includes wetlands as show on the Statewide Wetlands Inventory; C. Any permit for a lot or parcel subject to wildlife habitat special assessment, d. In all zones, a land use permit relocating property lines that reduces in size a lot or parcel' e. In all zones, a land use, structural, or non -emergency on -site sewage disposal system permit if the lot or parcel is smaller than the minimum area required in the applicable zone; In the Powell/Ramsey (PA-14-2, ZC-14-2) decision, the Hearings Officer held to a prior Zone Change Decision (Belveron ZC-08-04) that a property's lot of record status was not required to be verified as part of a plan amendment and zone change application. Rather, the applicant will be required to receive lot of record verification prior to any development on the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds this criterion does not apply. C. ZONING AND PLAN DESIGNATION: The subject property is zoned Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) and is designated Agricultural (AG) in the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan The property does not have any Goal 5 resource designations. D. PROPOSAL: The applicant requests approval of a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment to change the designation of the subject property from an Agricultural (AG) designation to a Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) designation. The applicant also requests approval of a corresponding Zoning Map Amendment to change the zoning of the subject property from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The applicant asks that Deschutes County change the zoning and the plan designation because the subject property does not qualify as "agricultural land" under Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) or Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) definitions. The applicant states that no exception to Statewide Planning Goal 3, Agricultural Land, is required because the subject property is not agricultural land. The application does not include a development proposal. The applicant notes that it could subdivide the property under Title 17 or through the County's cluster subdivision rules in Title 18, or could hold the property for future urbanization consistent with the development pattern of the surrounding lands. The applicant's attorney stated at the public hearing that the proposed re -designation and rezoning would allow the property to be considered in the next UGB expansion by the City of Bend. She stated there were no immediate plans to develop the property in the near future. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 3 of 57 Submitted with the application is an Order 1 Soil Survey of the subject property, titled "Soil Assessment for 37.7-Acre Parcel Lot 1000, Bend, Oregon" (hereafter referred to as the "soil study") prepared by soil scientist Andy Gallagher, CPSSc/SC 03114 of Red Hill Soils. The applicant also submitted a traffic analysis prepared by Transight Consulting, LLC titled "61781 Ward Road Rezone" hereby referred to as "traffic study." Additionally, the applicant submitted an application form, a burden of proof statement, and other supplemental materials, all of which are included in the record for the subject applications. E. SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject property is approximately 36.65 acres in size and is adjacent to both Bend's city limits and Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) to the west. The property is relatively level with mild undulating topography and collapsed lava tube features. Vegetation consists of juniper, sage brush, and grasses. A portion of the site was historically mined for dirt and fill for maintenance purposes of Central Oregon Irrigation District's (COID) delivery systems. The site is undeveloped except for COID's main canal located along the southern border and offshoot irrigation ditches in the southwestern and southeastern portions of the subject property. Access to the site is provided by stubbed local street connections including Darnel Avenue and Daylily Avenue, located in residential subdivisions in the City of Bend to the west. The subject property does not have water rights, and has not been farmed or used in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) map shown on the County's GIS mapping program identifies two soil complex units on the property: 36A, Deskamp loamy sand and 58C, Gosney-Rock outcrop-Deskamp complex. The predominant soil complex on the subject property is 58C, which is not a high - value soil as defined by DCC 18.04; 36A is not considered a high -value soil when irrigated. The subject property has no irrigation, no historical use of being farmed, and is overgrown with western juniper, sagebrush, rabbit brush and bunch grasses. COID has intermittedly used the property over the years to mine for dirt that was used for maintenance and repairs of the District's delivery systems. As discussed in detail below in the Soils section, an Agricultural Soils Capability Assessment (Order 1 soil survey) was conducted on the property by Certified Professional Soil Scientist Andy Gallagher which determined that the property is not agricultural land; Class 3 irrigated and Class 6 non -irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes and rocky, shallow soils, creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. There is a private easement along the COID canal. In addition, as noted in the Bend Park and Recreation District's public comment, BMPRD has a planned trail, the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail, identified in its comprehensive plan that runs through the subject property. F. SOILS: According to Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) maps of the area, 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 4 of 57 the subject property contains two different soil types as described below. The subject property contains 58C - Gosney-Rock Outcrop-Deskamp complex and 36A - Deskamp loamy sand. The applicant submitted a soil study report (applicant's Exhibit 5, Soil Assessment for 37.7- Acre Parcel Lot 1000, Bend, Oregon, dated December 2, 2020), which was prepared by a qualified soils professional approved by the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD), which can be used by property owners to determine the extent of agricultural land as defined in Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-033 Agricultural Land, The certified soils scientist and soil classifier conducted field work which included 41 test pits and observations of surface rock outcrops and determined the subject property is comprised of soils that do not qualify as Agricultural Lando. The purpose of this soil study was to inventory and assess the soils on the subject property' and to provide more detailed data on soil classifications and ratings than is contained in the NRCS soils maps. The NRCS soil map units identified on the property are described below. 36A. Deskamp loamy sand, 0 to 3 percent slopes: This soil complex is composed of 85 percent Deskamp soil and similar inclusions, and 15 percent contrasting inclusions. The Deskamp soils are somewhat excessively drained with a rapid over moderate permeability, and about 5 inches of available water capacity. Major uses of this soil type are irrigated cropland and livestock grazing. The agricultural capability rating for 36A soils are 3S when irrigated, and 6S when not irrigated. This soil is high -value when irrigated. Approximately 33.7 percent of the subject parcel is made up of this soil type. 58C Gosney-Rock Outcrop-Deskamp complex 0 to 15 percent slopes: This soil type is comprised of 50 percent Gosney soil and similar inclusions, 25 percent rock outcrop, 20 percent Deskamp soil and similar inclusions, and 5 percent contrasting inclusions. Gosney soils are somewhat excessively drained with rapid permeability. The available water capacity is about 1 inch. Deskamp soils are somewhat excessively drained with rapid permeability. Available water capacity is about 3 inches. The major use for this soil type is livestock grazing. The Gosney soils have ratings of 7e when unirrigated, and 7e when irrigated. The rock outcrop has a rating of 8, with or without irrigation. The Deskamp soils have ratings of 6e when unirrigated, and 4e when irrigated. Approximately 66.3 percent of the subject parcel is made up of this soil type.. 58C is not a high value soil as defined by DCC 18.04 ("High Value Farmland"). 36A is considered a high value soil when irrigated. There is no irrigation on the property. 3 As defined in OAR 660-033-0020, 660-033-0030 4 As defined in OAR 660-033-0020, 660-033-0030. 5 The canals were not rated for capability class, but for purposes of the assessment were included with the acreage that is not suited to agricultural production. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 5 of 57 Through numerous soil test pits and observations on the property Soil Scientist Andy Gallagher remapped the soils using a high intensity Order 1 soil survey and concluded that the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils (nearly 64%) and is not agricultural land. The Class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. An excerpt of Mr. Gallagher's summary and conclusions of his findings follows: In the revised Order-1 soil mapping, the Deskamp (Class 3 irrigated and 6 nonirrigated) are mapped as a consociation and only make up 29 percent of the parcel. The Gosney soils along with very shallow soils and rock outcrops are mapped as the Gosney-Rock Outcrop Complex because all three components of the complex are capability Class 7 or 8. This complex makes up 63.7 percent of the parcel. The irrigation canals make up 7.4 percent of the area. Based upon the findings of this Order-1 soil survey, the subject parcel is predominantly Class 7 and 8 soils and therefore is not "agricultural land" within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(A). The soil mapping and on -site studies also show the subject property is not agricultural land within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020(1)(b) as it is not adjacent to or intermingled with land in capability classes 1-6 within a farm unit. The class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils on the subject property have not been farmed or utilized in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. These soil units exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural' use either alone or in conjunction with other lands. No rebuttal evidence was presented to refute the applicant's evidence regarding soils. The applicant's soils study has been verified by DLCD. G. SURROUNDING LAND USES: The subject property is surrounded by urban development to the west within the Bend city limits; to the east and south are County exception lands zoned MUA10 developed with homes and small -acreage irrigation for pasture and hobby farm uses; and irrigated farmland zoned EFUTRB to the north and northeast. The adjacent properties are outlined below in further detail: North: North and northeast of the subject property is an area of EFU-zoned property. The adjacent property to the north, Tax Lot 1001 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 12.45-acre EFU- zoned property that is partially irrigated and developed with a nonfarm dwelling (approved under County file CU-01-75). Northeast is Tax Lot 201 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02), a 53.30- acre farm parcel that is irrigated, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a single- family dwelling and accessory structures. East. East of the subject property are two parcels zoned MUA10. Tax Lot 1102 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 5.55-acre parcel developed with a single-family dwelling, accessory 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 6 of 57 structures, and is partially irrigated. Tax Lot 1001 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 2.5-acre parcel developed with a single-family dwelling, accessory structures, and is partially irrigated. West. West of the subject property are residential subdivisions located in the City of Bend and developed to urban standards. These include Rosengarth Estates and Gardenside PUD in the RS Zone. Northwest is a 2-acre parcel zoned RL and developed with a residence. South: The abutting parcel southeast of COID's main canal is a 3.34-acre lot zoned EFUTRB and developed with a single-family dwelling and is partially irrigated. Southwest is Hansen Park (Tax Lot 1404 of Assessor's Map 18-12-02), a 5-acre undeveloped park zoned MUA10 and owned by Bend Metro Parks and Recreation District. East of Hansen Park is a 5-acre parcel zoned M UA10 and developed with a residence (Tax Lot 1407 of Assessor's Map 18-12- 02). H. PUBLIC AGENCY COMMENTS: The Planning Division mailed notice of the applications on June 11, 2021 to several public agencies and received the following comments: Deschutes County Senior Transportation Planner, Peter Russell I have reviewed the Transight April 13, 2021, traffic study to change the comp plan designation from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) and the zoning from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (iVIUA-10) for 36.65 acres at 61781 Ward Rd, aka 18-12-02, TL 1000. Staff finds the study needs to be modified to comply with the Transportation Planning Rule and Deschutes County's accepted practices to analyze plan amendments and zone changes. For "reasonable worst -case scenario" the County compares and contrasts the highest trip generator permitted outright in both the current zone and the requested zone. DCC 18.16.020 lists those uses permitted outright in EFU. DCC 18.16.025 lists other outright permitted uses that meet applicable criteria in either DCC 18.16.038, 18.16.042, and review under DCC 18.124. The TIA cites to marijuana production facility, which the County has analyzed under the Warehouse category of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. However, the County has opted out of the state's marijuana processing program and thus this use and its analog of Warehouse should not be used. Instead, staff would utilize Winery (DCC 18.16.025(F)) as a reasonable worst case scenario. DCC 18.32.020 lists outright permitted uses for MUA-10. The highest trip generator is a cluster development of single-family homes within one -mile of a UGB, per DCC 18.32.040(A), as the traffic study correctly notes. The study needs to be redone to show the difference between winery and a cluster development to determine if there is a significant effect and any difference in the number of p.m. peak hour trips. This would also require the volumes for the trip distribution figures to be redone as well. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 7 of 57 Upon receipt of the County Senior Transportation Planner's initial comment, above, the applicant submitted a revised traffic study, dated June 8, 2021. No further comments were offered by the County's Senior Transportation Planner. Bend Park and Recreation District, Henry Stroud, AICP, Planner The Bend Park and Recreation District has a planned trail, the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail, identified in our comprehensive plan that runs through the subject property. While we understand that this application is just for a zoning change, the District would like to work with the applicant to acquire a trail easement for the COHCT prior to any future development of the property. The following agencies did not respond to the notice: Deschutes County Assessor, Bend Fire Department, City of Bend Planning Department, City of Bend Public Works Department, ODOT Region 4, and City of Bend Growth Management Department. 1. PUBLIC COMMENTS: The Planning Division mailed notice of the conditional use application to all property owners within 750 feet of the subject property on June 11, 2021. The applicant also complied with the posted notice requirements of Section 22.24.030(B) of Title 22. The applicant submitted a Land Use Action Sign Affidavit indicating the applicant posted notice of the land use action on June 25, 2021. Public comments were received from neighboring property owners. Public comments are summarized as follows: The first comment was received from Jeff Sundberg, a resident and owner of property located at 61710 Gibson Drive, Bend, OR 97702 on June 15, 2021: Hi Brandon, I received a letter from Deschutes County regarding COID applying for new permits. I live at 61710 Gibson Drive, Bend, Or, 97702. 1 live next to the property in question, 61781 Ward Road. It looks like COID is requesting to go from agricultural and farm use zoning to rural residential exception area and multiple use agricultural zoning. Does this mean they want to put in a housing development? I was wondering if this response by email will suffice if I want to be notified of public hearings related to this application or if I still have to write a letter requesting to be notified of any decision or public hearing. Does any of this change my easement with COID or should I contact them directly? Thanks and let me know anything you can about this land change please. Staff responded to Mr. Sundberg's email on June 16, 2021 as follows: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 8 of 57 Hi Jeff, Thanks for reaching out. As you noted, this is an application for a Comprehensive Plan/Zoning change so I am unaware of what COID intends to do with the property in the future. If they were to take the residential route, a minimum subdivision lot size of 10 acres still applies to the property. Because you received the Notice of Application, you are also on the list to receive the Notice of Public Hearing, which is tentatively set for ju/y 27th With regards to your easement agreement, I am not inclined to think this will change anything but contacting CO/D directly is a good idea. Let me know if you have any other questions. Take care, Brandon The second comment was received from Keda Weaver, a resident of 21435 Modoc Lane, Bend, OR 97702 on June 18, 2021: "My name is Kecia Weaver l live at 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702 with my spouse who is listed property owner, Patrick McCoy. On 6117121 l read the notice of application for the above listed property. i would like to formally dispute the requested zoning changes. I have several concerns, to include the following: 1) irrigation/Water Rights - As a small farm operator with seasonal livestock I am concerned that the proposed changes may further draw from my water access which has been limited and may be further limited due to drought conditions. More users in the proposed Multiple Use Agriculture may further draw down water allocations. 2) Wildlife Habitat - Having lived here for over 6 years. I know the proposed area to be home to deer, rabbits, birds and other wildlife which will be disturbed. 3) Extensive residential development in the immediate area- Over the past few months, extensive development has been proposed both to the north and south of our neighborhood specifically several hundred acres south of Stevens Road and north of Bear Creek Road adjacent to Ward Road. 4) Traffic concerns - increased traffic will occur in the area with other proposed developments. 1 am concerned the points of entrance and egress to this proposed area will add to the impact to our neighborhood as well. 5) Overall rapid growth concerns for Deschutes County- As observed by pitfalls of the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 9 of 57 rapid growth in the City of Bend over the past decade, I would encourage Deschutes County to adhere to a slower growth model. 6) Decrease in property value- This proposed change will drastically impact the view to the west of my property when it is developed. With respect to the natural beauty and appeal of this County we have chosen to call home and as a taxpayer and voter, I implore the Deschutes County planning department to deny this application at this time. I wish to be notified of all public hearings related to this application and any decision. My address is 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702." The third comment was received from Patrick McCoy, a neighboring property owner and resident of 21435 Modoc Lane, Bend, OR 97702 on June 18, 2021: "My name is Patrick McCoy a home and landowner at 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702. On 6117121 I received the notice of application for the above listed property. With little time to research to this proposal, based on the information / have obtained, I would like to formally dispute the requested zoning changes. My concerns are numerous and / will highlight the following. 1) Irrigation/Water Rights - As a small farm operator with seasonal livestock l am concerned that the proposed changes may further draw from my water access which has been limited and may be further limited due to drought conditions. More users in the proposed Multiple Use Agriculture may further draw down water allocations. 2) Wildlife Habitat - Having lived here for over 6 years.

I am concerned the points of entrance and egress to this proposed area will add to the impact to our neighborhood as well. 5) Overall rapid growth concerns for Deschutes County- As observed by pitfalls of the rapid growth in the City of Bend over the past decade, I would encourage Deschutes County to adhere to a slower growth model. 6) Decrease in property value- This proposed change will drastically impact the view to the west of my property when it is developed. With respect to the natural beauty and appeal of this County we have chosen to call home and as a taxpayer and voter, I implore the Deschutes County planning department to deny this application at this time. l wish to be notified of all public hearings related to this application and any decision. My address is 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702." 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 10 of 57 The fourth public comment was received from Kyle Weaver on June 18, 2021: "I am writing to express by objection to the proposed changes east of 27th in the pursuit of yet another neighborhood development The East side of Bend is the current hotspot for housing expansion but some caution must be taken and not simply rubber stamping these applications through and knocking down yet more trees and eliminating farm lands and mountain views. Neighborhoods are popping up in all directions all over town and the construction industryfrenzy is full throttle with little interest in these types of nature/aesthetic concerns. I don't begrudge people making some money and Bend is certainly a desirable place to live, but things need to be planned out in a more thoughtful and deliberate fashion. There is nothing wrong with taking a slower and more measured approach as we all consider Bend's growth in the comingyears. I have lived in Bend for just over 20 years and have family and friends in the proposed development area and it would drastically reduce their enjoyment of their property. I urge you to decline this request on behalf of many other community members who feel the same way." The fifth public comment was received from Treva Weaver on June 18, 2021: "Re. 1812020001000 Central Or. Irrigation District I am opposed to the proposed land use change by the above referenced owner..... The loss of open space in Central Oregon continues as the growth proponents seem mainly interested in jumping on the bandwagon and making as much profit as possible. The East side of Bend, where I have lived the past 21 years, has hundreds, if not thousands of housing sites already started or proposed. Until all this land is developed and houses sold, there is no need to venture east of 27th where this property is located ..... My great grandfather came to Oregon at age 9 in 1846 and our family has very deep roots in this state. I spend a large amount of time at my daughter's home which is directly east of the proposed development. We enjoy riding our horses in her arena and also enjoy family gatherings in her backyard. The view would be drastically changed if this land is developed. What is wrong with leaving some land in its natural state? It will be many many years before additional housing is needed in this area. Please decline this request change and leave some land in its more natural state." The sixth public comment was received from John Schaeffer, a neighboring property owner at 61677 Thunder Road, Bend, OR 97702 on June 19, 2021: "I am writing on behalf of myself and several neighbors in the Stevens Road - Thunder Road neighborhood. We are opposed to COID's proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning for taxlot 1812020001000. We realize this is not a request for development but know that it will lead to development in the next few years, that it is the first step in making the property more marketable, should it be brought into the UGB during the next update. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 11 of 57 Development has been increasing in this area, especially with the inclusion of the Stevens Road tract in the current UGB, and its subsequent sale by the state. We feel it is important to leave some natural open areas for people and animals near the city limits. This is especially critical now that the Stevens Road tract is being developed, along with all the other development in this area. A few years ago, it was possible to take our dogs walking in the Stevens Road tract and meet few people. The use in this area has increased remarkably over the last several years, consistent with Bend's growth. The COLD parcel is isolated and not readily accessible by cars, with varied topography, including a small canyon. It has significant native vegetation and, when I was there a couple of days ago, there were many birds, much more than in the nearby areas where there are houses and the vegetation has been cleared. Right now, the average size of the parcels between the city limits to the west and Ward Road to the east, and between Stevens Road to the south and to approximately where Skyline View Drive would be if extended into the area on the north, is 8 acres. If you consider only the MUA zoned parcels, the average size is 4.8 acres. If the COID property was developed to that level, this would mean 7- 8 houses in the area. I do not know what would be allowed under the Rural Residential Exception area but suspect it would probably be even denser housing. As Bend continues to grow at what may be an unsustainable pace the value of open space increases. We urge you to consider open space as a relevant and beneficial resource when you weigh the issues inherent in this kind of a zoning change. Sincerely, John Schaeffer and Patti Bailey James and Janet Lake Julie Naslund, Michael, and Miles Nevill Mike Quick Jill Harrell and Mike King" The seventh public comment was received from Cathy DeCourcey, a property owner and resident of 61718 Rigel Way, Bend, OR 97702 on June 21, 2021: "I am responding to a letter I received regarding COID's application to rezone the property behind me. File # 247-21-0000400-PA, 401-ZC. 36.65 Acres. My understanding is they want to change the zoning from Agriculture and Exclusive Farm Use Zone to Rural Residential Exception Area and Multiple Use Agricultural, I've read the Application prepared by Tia M. Lewis. I have 3 concerns. 1. The water supply says wells are to be drilled for household use. There are 2 very old (55yrs) Well Reports included in her submission. 1 find this very odd that 7 new homes will be drilling and using well water for approximately 5 acre mini ranches. Surely the water table has lowered over time? The depth of one shows 619 feet. One report seems to be missing 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 12 of 57 the gallons per minute amount. Would you explain where the household and irrigation water will be coming from for these 7 lots? 2. At what point can the MUA-10 Zoning be changed to create a subdivision of smaller sized lots? 3. Will there be more than 7lots created? The stubbed access roads listed are already narrow and congested with parked cars and traffic coming and going to 27th which has no turn lanes onto or off of Darnel. Thank you for your time and response." The eighth public comment was received from Jennifer Neil, a property owner and resident of 61723 Rigel Way, Bend, OR 97702 on June 21, 2021: "My name is Jennifer Neil, and I am Bend homeowner concerned about the above -mentioned proposed land use. The proposed land use will change what is a small, open space next to the Central Oregon canal from farm use to more residential use. I'm saddened to not only lose the space I walk on twice a day, but to see it turned into more overpriced homes that the city and the community is not able to support. The area of SE Bend where this property is located has already out -grown all of the infrastructure to support more housing. It has become extremely difficult to access my home because of the traffic and congestion along 27th street. This congestion will only increase with the addition of the new High School. Finally, I'm also very concerned that 4 of my neighbors, who are also homeowners and have properties directly next to this proposed land use change, did not receive any notice of this land use. i notified theml I hope that the city planners will consider the impact more houses will have in this area, and improve the infrastructure first that is already necessary before destroying more open space." The ninth public comment was received from Brent N. Wilkins, an owner and resident of property at 61764 SE Camellia Street, Bend, OR 97702, on June 21, 2021: "I am a resident of the Rosengarth Subdivision. I am submitting these written comments relating to the proposed zoning changes by the Central Oregon Irrigation District ("COID'q for the real property located at 61781 Ward Road, Bend, OR 97702 ("Property'9. For the reasons noted below, including due to the level of development in East Bend in close proximity to the Property, the Property's rural nature that serves as a place of recreation, and the high level of traffic and lack of a left-hand turn lane from the major arterial (27th Street) that will likely service the Property if/once developed, I ask that the Deschutes County Planning Division ("Planning Division'9 not approve COID's application. I request to be notified of any decision or public hearing related to this application, and this notice may be sent to: Brent N. Wilkins 61764 SE Camellia Street Bend, OR 97702 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 13 of 57 As noted on page 3 of COID's Burden of Proof Statement, COID will have the ability to attempt to develop and subdivide the Property into a subdivision if the permit is granted. This would potentially occur through Title 17 or Title 18 of Deschutes County's rules. This permit should not be granted as further development in the proximity of the Property will not serve the County or community. A. Development & Traffic Impacts The Property at issue is surrounded by areas that have been recently developed. This includes the DR Horton subdivision off of Pettigrew Drive, the Hayden Homes Subdivision off of Pettigrew Drive, as well as the Rosengarth Subdivision. 27th Street has not been able to keep up resulting increased traffic flow as a result of the development to date. Excluding this Property, there is now significant further development occurring in this immediate area that 27th Street will service. The development at this time includes a new commercial lot being developed at 27th Street and Reed Market that will consist of multiple businesses, a new subdivision between Reed Market and Starlight Drive on the east side of 27th Street, and significant development off of 27th Street on Stevens Road. The Property will also heavily utilize 27th Street through the likely extension of Darnel Avenue and/or DaylilyAvenue. The collective effect of all of this development is that the rural nature of East Bend is being lost and 27th Street is becoming unsafe. 27th Street at this time does not adequately handle the levels of traffic that occur each morning around 8:00 am, each afternoon around 3:00 pm as well as when school lets out, and during the weekends. I have routinely sat in my car for more than two minutes trying to turn left onto 27th Street. I have also waited more than a minute to even to try to turn right onto 27th Street. A photograph showing the line of traffic on 27th Street is enclosed. (See Ex. 1). Also, there is no left turn lane when turning left from 27th Street onto Darnel Avenue from 27th. This has resulted in unsafe conditions, including vehicles passing the turning vehicle on the right where there is no developed shoulder or lane. There are tracks on the ground where this happens, and it is not safe for those vehicles, the turning vehicle, or oncoming traffic. Eastside Gardens is also located at 27th Street and Darnel Avenue. Vehicles pull in and out of that parking lot at that intersection and from the parking lot itself. This cause an irregular, unsafe traffic flow that will only be exacerbated by further use. Moreover, due to Darnel Avenue serving as a primary access point for homes throughout the existing neighborhoods and Gardenside Park, there is already a high level of traffic and vehicles often driving fast. There is also significant on street parking that restricts views for drivers and pedestrians. This includes large 'sprinter' vans, large trucks, and sometimes trailers. (See Ex. 2). There are numerous young families in the neighborhoods, including along Camellia Street, Darnel Avenue and Gardenside Park. These families have children that run, play, skateboard, ride scooters, and bike throughout the neighborhood, including on the streets. The existing neighborhood traffic levels poses a danger to children. The proposed permit will likely result in increased traffic within the neighborhood and pose additional risk to these young families and 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 14 of 57 children. Any consideration of the Permit, and any possible approval, must address this dynamic. Finally, with the recent approval of the Southeast Area Plan for the 'Elbow; the level of traffic in East Bend and 27 Street will only increase. This will also result in the displacement of birds and other wildlife, which is further covered below, and will need a place to go. B. Preservation The Property at issue is an area that is highly utilized for recreation and embodies Central Oregon high desert landscape. In the winters, the area can serve as a place for cross-country skiing. (See Ex. 3). People regularly ride bikes, run, and go for walks. The aerial photo that was enclosed with the Notice of Application also shows the walking path through the middle of the Property. The wildlife that calls this place home includes ducks, jackrabbits, geese, and numerous other birds. There is also a rimrock canyon on the Property that is quite unique and should be preserved (See Ex. 4). The Property also has views of the Cascades, Powell Butte, and Newberry Caldera (See Ex. 5). It is also quite peaceful and has a gentle, rolling landscape full of trees, grasses, and sagebrush. (See Ex. 6). During the mornings and evenings one can go for walks and hear the songs of birds and enjoy an escape from the busy work day and pace of life. In other words, changing the Property's zoning classification and leading to the possibility (if not the eventual or imminent likelihood) of development that will further change the rural nature of Bend is not in the public's interest for rezoning standards or otherwise. C. Conclusion The existing development and use of 27 Street, the development already approved and under construction, and the future development of Stevens Road and the 'Elbow makes changing the Property's zoning classification to not be in the public interest. There simply is not adequate infrastructure to support all of these additions in a safe manner. Until the access to the neighborhoods from 27`h Street is improved, no further development or changes of zoning classifications should occur. Approving the permit will also likely result in the irreparable loss of rural landscape and habitat once the Property is developed, including possibly without any restrictions or preservation criteria. In sum, the proposed permit application should be denied, or at least not approved in its current form. At a minimum, a hearing should be set for in person comments and for further deliberation to occur." The public comment from Mr. Wilkins includes 10 photographs depicting the various conditions outlined in his written comment. These photographs and the full written comment are included in public record for the subject application. The tenth public comment was received from Crystal Garner on June 22, 2021: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 15 of 57 "I would like to request a hearing for the proposed land development for 61781 Ward Rd, Bend, OR 97702. We live about 4 houses down from this property, it is a great and safe place for our family and so many others in the neighborhood to take walks, ride bikes, and walk dogs. The thought of this land being developed on and losing those opportunities, as well as possibly compromising the safety of our children in our neighborhood bring a heavy heart to so many of us. Please consider a hearing to recant this decision." The eleventh public comment was received from William Kepper on June 29, 2021: "Sorryfor the late response to the changes associated with Map and Taxlot. 1812020001000. The notification was not received timely. The notification is vague to exactly what changes will occur. If the changes have anything to do with the cultivation of marijuana or hemp we and our neighbors are against it. It would destroy ours and our neighbors quality of life. There are numerous small children and teenagers in the neighborhoods who should not be subjected to these types of grow farms. Also there is a child day care facility close by off 27`h Street. I hope I'm wrong about the 'Rural Residential Exception Area and Multiple Use Agricultural, respectively" statement. Thanks for listening to my concerns. I'd appreciate additional information on exactly what Multiple Use Agricultural Zone (MUA10) means." The twelfth public comment was received from David Morrison on August 30, 2021: Tarik, I may wish to participate in this hearing if I have questions or concerns not addressed by others. I plan to participate via Zoom. My wife is dealing with serious health issues and may require attention at any time which might cause me to miss all or some. So, I would like to go on record as 10096 against re -zoning said COLD property at this time. I feel that with the already in the works developments south of Stevens Rd and north of Bear Creek Rd, that the road system is already severely inadequate. Also, with the drought conditions and worsening water supplies in not just Bend but all of Deschutes and surrounding counties, I would like to see this request'tabled; to be revisited in no fewer than 5 years. The county needs to greatly improve roads and water supply issues before allowing more and more building and deteriorating areas that will make this area more desirable to live in. I enjoy watching all of the natural wildlife that lives in this space, they will disappear with development, as will our natural view that was the biggest reason for us purchasing our property which is immediately adjacent to said property. I am also concerned about the stated address of said property, Ward Rd is no where near the property. If it should be re -zoned, where exactly will it be accessed? I fear the continued rapid growth will quickly and severely deteriorate the quality of life for all of Bend. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 16 of 57 Thank you for considering my our [sic] concerns, David & Nancy Morrison J. LAND USE HISTORY: There is no history of prior land use permits having been granted for the subject property. K. UTILITY SERVICES: The subject property is served by Pacific Power and water will be provided by a well (see Exhibit 7 for will serve letter and well logs). L. PUBLIC SERVICES: The subject property is in the Deschutes County Rural Fire Protection District #2 (Exhibit 6). The Bend Rural Fire Protection Station 304 is located a few miles northeast of the subject property near the corner of Hamby and Neff Roads. The Pilot Butte Station on NE 15th Street and Highway 20 is also within a few miles of the subject property. The Deschutes County Sheriff provides police and public safety services. Access to the subject property is provided from the stubbed local street connections of Darnel Avenue and Daylily Avenue to the west. The Bend Municipal Airport is located several miles northeast of the property. The property is within the Bend -La Pine School District and is in the Buckingham Elementary School boundary, the Pilot Butte Middle School boundary and the Bend High School boundary. The property is outside of the Bend Parks and Recreation District boundary; however, Bend Parks and Recreation District has plans to develop Hansen Park Trailhead located south of the subject property that will serve the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail system. M. NOTICE REQUIREMENT: On August 6, 2021, the Planning Division mailed a Notice of Public Hearing to all property owners within 750 feet of the subject property and agencies. A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Bend Bulletin on Sunday, August 8, 2021. Notice of the first evidentiary hearing was submitted to the Department of Land Conservation and Development on July 26, 2021. The applicant complied with the posted notice requirements of DCC 22.24.030(B). The applicant submitted a Land Use Action Sign Affidavit, dated June 25, 2021, indicating the applicant posted notice of the land use action on June 25, 2021. Deschutes County sent notice of the proposed change to its comprehensive plan and land use regulation to the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development, received by DLCD on July 26, 2021. N. REVIEW PERIOD: The subject applications were submitted on April 20, 2021, and deemed complete by the Planning Division on May 20, 2021. According to Deschutes County Code 22.20.040(D), the review of the proposed quasi-judicial plan amendment and zone change application is not subject to the 150-day review period. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 17 of 57 III. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW Title 18 of the Deschutes County Code, County Zoning Chapter 18.136, Amendments Section 18.136.010, Amendments DCC Title 18 may be amended as set forth in DCC 18.136. The procedures for text or legislative map changes shall be as set forth in DCC 22.12. A request by a property owner for a quasi-judicial map amendment shall be accomplished by filing an application on forms provided by the Planning Department and shall be subject to applicable procedures of DCC Title 22. FINDING: The applicant, also the property owner, has requested a quasi-judicial plan amendment and filed the applications for a plan amendment and zone change. The applicant filed the required Planning Division's land use application forms for the proposal. The application is reviewed utilizing the applicable procedures contained in Title 22 of the Deschutes County Code. The Hearings Officer finds these criteria are met. Section 18.136.020, Rezoning Standards The applicant for a quasi-judicial rezoning must establish that the public interest is best served by rezoning the property. Factors to be demonstrated by the applicant are. A. That the change conforms with the Comprehensive Plan, and the change is consistent with the plan's introductory statement and goals. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in its submitted burden of proof statement: Per prior Hearings Officers decisions [Powell/Ramsey (file no. PA-14-2 / ZC-14-2) and Landholdings (file no. 247-16-000317-ZC, 318-PA)] for plan amendments and zone changes on EFU-zoned property, this paragraph establishes two requirements. (1) that the zone change conforms to the Comprehensive Plan and (2) that the change is consistent with the plan's introductory statements and goals. Both requirements are addressed below. 1. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan: The applicant proposes a plan amendment to change the Comprehensive Plan designation for the subject property from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area. The proposed rezoning from EFU- TRB to MUA-10 will need to be consistent with its proposed new plan designation. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 18 of 57 2. Consistency with the Plan's Introductory Statement and Goals. In previous decisions, the Hearings Officer found the introductory statements and goals are not approval criteria for the proposed plan amendment and zone change. However, the Hearings Officer in the Landholdings decision found that depending on the language, some plan provisions may apply and found the following amended comprehensive plan goals and policies require consideration and that other provisions of the plan do not apply as stated below in the Landholdings decision: "Comprehensive plan statements, goals and policies typically are not intended to, and do not, constitute mandatory approval criteria for quasi-judicial/and use permit applications. Save Our Skyline v. City of Bend, 48 Or LUBA 192 (2004). There, LUBA held. As intervenor correctly points out, local and statutory requirements that land use decisions be consistent with the comprehensive plan do not mean that all parts of the comprehensive plan necessarily are approval standards. [Citations omitted.] Local governments and this Board have frequently considered the text and context of cited parts of the comprehensive plan and concluded that the alleged comprehensive plan standard was not an applicable approval standard. [Citations omitted.] Even if the comprehensive plan includes provisions that can operate as approval standards, those standards are not necessarily relevant to all quasi-judicial land use permit applications. [Citation omitted.] Moreover, even if a plan provision is a relevant standard that must be considered, the plan provision might not constitute a separate mandatory approval criterion, in the sense that it must be separately satisfied, along with any other mandatory approval criteria, before the application can be approved. Instead, that plan provision, even if it constitutes a relevant standard, may represent a required consideration that must be balanced with other relevant considerations. [Citations omitted.]` LUBA went on to hold in Save Our Skyline that it is appropriate to 'consider first whether the comprehensive plan itself expressly assigns particular role to some or all of the plan's goals and policies.' Section 23. 08. 020 of the county's comprehensive plan provides as follows: The purpose of the Comprehensive Plan for Deschutes County is not to -provide a site -specific identification of the appropriate land uses which may take place on a Particular piece of land but rather it is to consider the significant factors which affect or are affected by development in the County and provide a general guide to the various decision which must be made to promote the greatest efficiency and equity possible, while managing the continuinggrowth and change of the area. Part of that process is identification of an appropriate land use plan, which is then 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 19 of 57 interpreted to make decision about specific sites (most often in zoning and subdivision administration) but the plan must also consider the sociological, economic and environmental consequences of various actions and provide guidelines and policies for activities which may have effects beyond physical changes of the land (Emphases added by applicant.) The Hearings Officer previously found that the above -underscored language strongly suggests the county's plan statements, goals and policies are not intended to establish approval standards for quasi-judicial land use permit applications. In Bothman v. City of Eugene, 51 Or LUBA 426 (2006), LUBA found it appropriate also to review the language of specific plan policies to determine whether and to what extent they may in fact establish decisional standards. The policies at issue in that case included those ranging from aspirational statements to planning directives to the city to policies with language providing 'guidance for decision - making' with respect to specific rezoning proposals. In Bothman LUBA concluded the planning commission erred in not considering in a zone change proceeding a plan policy requiring the city to '(r]ecognize the existing general office and commercial uses located * * * [in the geographic area including the subject property] and discourage future rezonings of these properties.' LUBA held that. ,*** even where a plan provision might not constitute an independently applicable mandatory approval' criterion, it may nonetheless represent a relevant and necessary consideration that must be reviewed and balanced with other relevant considerations, pursuant to ordinance provisions that require *** consistency with applicable plan provision.' (Emphasis added.) The county's comprehensive plan includes a large number of goals and policies. The applicant's burden of proof addresses goals for rural development, economy, transportation, public facilities, recreation, energy, natural hazards, destination resorts, open spaces, fish and wildlife, and forest lands. The Hearings Officer finds these goals are aspirational in nature and therefore are not intended to create decision standards for the proposed zone change." Hearings Officer Karen Green adhered to these findings in the Powell/Ramsey decision (file nos. PA- 14-2/ZC-14-2), and found the above referenced introductory statements and goals are not approval criteria for the proposed plan amendment and zone change. This Hearings Officer also adheres to the above findings herein. Nevertheless, depending upon their language, some plan provisions may require "consideration" even if they are not applicable approval criteria. Save Our Skyline v. City of Bend, 48 Or LUBA 19Z 209 (2004). 1 find that the following amended comprehensive plan goals and policies require such consideration, and that other provisions of the plan do not apply.'" 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 20 of 57 The comprehensive plan goals and polices that the Landholdings Hearings Officer found to apply include the following... The applicant utilizes the analysis provided in prior Hearings Officers' decisions to determine and respond to only the Comprehensive Plan Goals and policies that apply, which are listed below in the Comprehensive Plan section of this Decision. The Hearings Officer finds the above provision is met, based on Comprehensive Plan conformance as set forth in subsequent findings. B. That the change in classification for the subject property is consistent with the purpose and intent of the proposed zone classification. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The applicant is proposing to change the zone classification from EFU to MUA-10. Approval of the application is consistent with the purpose of the MUA-10 zoning district, which stated in DCC 18.32.010 as follows: "The purposes of the Multiple Use Agricultural Zone are to preserve the rural character of various areas of the County while permitting development consistent with that character and with the capacity of the natural resources of the area, to preserve and maintain agricultural lands not suited to full-time commercial farming for diversified or part-time agricultural uses to conserve forest lands for forest uses; to conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources; to maintain and improve the quality of the air, water and land resources of the County, to establish standards and procedures for the use of those lands designated unsuitable for intense development by the Comprehensive Plan, and to provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use." The subject property is not suited to full-time commercial farming as discussed in the findings above. The MUA-10 zone will allow property owners to engage in hobby farming. The low -density of development allowed by the MUA-10 zone will conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources. In the Landholding's case, the Hearings Officer found: I find that the proposed change in zoning classification from EFU is consistent with the purpose and intent of the MUA-10 zone. Specifically, the MUA-10 zone is intended to preserve the rural character of various areas of the County while permitting development consistent with that character and with the capacity of the natural resources of the area. Approval of the proposed rezone to MUA-10 would permit applications for low -density development, which will comprise a transition zone between EFU rural zoning, primarily to the east and City zoning to the west. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 21 of 57 The maximum density of the approximately 36.65-acre property if developed with a cluster development under Title 18 is 7 lots. This low density will preserve open space, allow owners to engage in hobby farming, if desired, and preserve natural and scenic resources and maintain or improve the quality of air, water, and land resources. The MUA-10 zoning provides a proper transition zone from City, to rural zoning to EFU zoning. The applicant's burden of proof statement also includes analysis in the Introduction section at pages 1-2. There, the applicant stated, in relevant part: For the past several years, Deschutes County has recognized the value in rezoning non -productive agricultural lands and has issued decisions in support of plan amendments and zone changes where the applicant demonstrates the property is not agricultural land and, therefore, Statewide Goal 3, Agricultural Lands, does not apply. These cases are the foundation for the subject request. Cases pertinent to the proposed request include. Kelly Porter Burns Landholdings LLC ("Landholdings")/File nos. 247-16-000317-ZC/318- PA On November 1, 2017, the Board approved Kelly Porter Burns Landholdings LLC's request to change the plan designation on certain propertyfrom Agricultural to Rural Residential Exception Area and to change the zone designation from EFU-TRB to MUA-10 zone. The property consists of about 35 acres and abuts the applicant's property to the west (Exhibit 1). Based on the Order 1 soil survey for the property and the submitted evidence, the Hearings Officer found that the Landholdings property does not constitute agricultural land and does not merit protection under Goal 3, and therefore, approved the change in Plan designation and Zoning of the propertyfrom Agriculture/EFU-TRB to RREA/MUA-10.6 Division of State Lands Decision/File Nos. PA-11-7 and ZC-11-2 The Division of State Lands case was a 2013 approval by the Board for a plan amendment from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU-TRB to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). Based on the Order 1 soil survey for the property and the submitted evidence, the Board found that the property was not agricultural land and therefore, Goal 3 did not apply (Exhibit 2). 6 The Board adopted as its findings the Hearings Officer's decision with one exception: that if the property is divided, it must be developed as a cluster development and the two irrigation ponds must be included in the common area. In addition, the Board required the applicant to sign a Conditions of Approval agreement to "assure that future residential development of the property will be harmonious with existing development in the area and so that a part of the property may be developed at urban densities if and when the property is annexed to the City of Bend." 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 22 of 57 Paget Decision/File Nos. PA-07-1, ZC-07-1 The Paget decision was a 2007 approval of a plan amendment from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU to MUA-10. The Board adopted the Hearings Officer's decision, which found that the property did not constitute "agricultural land" and therefore, the plan amendment and zone change to MUA-10 was consistent with Goal 3 (Exhibit 3). The Daniels Group/File Nos. PA-08-1, ZC-08-1 The Daniels Group decision was a 2011 Board decision approving a change to the Comprehensive Plan map from Surface Mine and Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU-LB and Surface Mining to Rural Residential (RR-10). The Board found that the property did not constitute "agricultural land" as defined in Goal 3, was not subject to protection under Goal 3, and therefore, the plan amendment and zone change did not require an exception to Goal 3. (Exhibit 4). The Hearings Officer finds the applicant has demonstrated the change in classification is consistent with the purpose and intent of the MUA-10 Zone. A change in classification will preserve the rural character of the subject property, due to the low density of development allowed in the MUA-10 zone, while permitting development consistent with that character. As set forth in the findings below, the subject property is not suited to full-time commercial farming but could be used for hobby farming. Low density development will also conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources. The Hearings Officer finds that approval of the proposed rezone to MUA-10 would permit applications for low -density development, and will comprise a transition zone between the City and EFU zoning to the east. The Hearings Officer's findings regarding agricultural land and Goal 3 exception are set forth in the findings below. C. That changing the zoning will presently serve the public health, safety and welfare considering the following factors: 1. The availability and efficiency of providing necessary public services and facilities. FINDING: There is no proposal to develop the property at this time. The above criterion asks if the proposed zone change will presently serve public health, safety, and welfare. The applicant provides the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: Necessary public facilities and services are available to serve the subject property, including electrical power from Pacific Power and well logs showing water services are available to serve the property. Exhibit 7. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 23 of 57 Transportation access to the property is available from the stubbed local street connections of Darnel Avenue and Daylily Avenue to the west in the City of Bend Urban Growth Boundary. MUA- 10 zoning and a standard subdivision would allow the creation of up to 3 residential lots and a cluster development would allow up to 7 residential lots. If developed with a cluster development, the property could generate up to 49 additional daily trips, which according to the traffic report by Transight Consulting is a slight increase in trips, but the impact of these trips is negligible on the transportation system and the functional classification of all the adjacent roadways will not be affected with the proposed rezone. The existing road network is available to serve the use of the property if developed. The property receives police services from the Deschutes County Sheriff and is in Rural Fire Protection District #2 with the nearest fire station nearby. Neighboring properties contain residential uses, which have water service from a municipal source or wells, on -site sewage disposal systems, electrical service, telephone services, etc. There are no known deficiencies in public services or facilities that would negatively impact public health, safety, or welfare. Neighboring properties contain residential and commercial uses, which have water service from a quasi -municipal source or wells, on -site sewage disposal systems, electrical service, telephone services, etc. There are no known deficiencies in public services or facilities that would negatively impact public health, safety, or welfare. Public commentators expressed concern about access to the subject property. One commentator stated that Ward Road is 3/4 mile away and that the property is not accessible other than via a canal road, which is gated. Other commentators stated that access from City of Bend roads (Daylily Avenue and Darnel Avenue) that are currently stubbed at the edge of the eastern boundary of the Bend UGB, through existing subdivisions will be dangerous. The applicant's attorney stated that there are no current plans to develop the property. The applicant may offer the property for sale or develop as MUA-10 zone. Alternatively, the applicant could hold onto the property until the next Bend UGB expansion process. The Hearings Officer finds that no access to the subject property is required to be established for purposes of consideration of the re -designation and rezoning applications. Any future development will have to establish access in compliance with applicable zoning regulations and the comprehensive plan. Prior to development of the property, the applicant will be required to comply with the applicable requirements of the Deschutes County Code, including possible land use permit, building permit, and sewage disposal permit processes. Through these development review processes, assurance of adequate public services and facilities will be verified. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 24 of 57 2. The impacts on surrounding land use will be consistent with the specific goals and policies contained within the Comprehensive Plan. FINDING: The applicant's submitted burden of proof statement addresses potential impacts on surrounding land uses as related to each individual policy and goal item within the County's Comprehensive Plan in subsequent findings. Analysis of consistency with each applicable goal and policy is set forth in the findings below. The Hearings Officer finds that the MUA-10 zoning is the same zoning of many other properties in the areas east and south of the subject property. As the Hearings Officer found above, MUA-10 zoning provides a proper transition zone from the City to EFU zoning. The requested zone change will not impose new impacts on EFU-zoned land to the north of the subject property because that property is a small parcel, approximately 12 acres in size, that is not engaged in commercial farm use and is developed with a nonfarm dwelling. Further, MUA-10 zoning will have minimal impacts on EFU-zoned land adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject property. As determined by the applicant's soil scientist, Andy Gallagher, it is not practical to farm the subject property because it is comprised primarily of Class 7 and 8 soils and is characterized by a cut-up landscape. The Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not land that could be used in conjunction with the adjacent property. Any future development of the subject property will be subject to building setbacks. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. D. That there has been a change in circumstances since the property was last zoned, or a mistake was made in the zoning of the property in question. FINDING: The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from EFU to MUA10 and re- designate the property from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area. The applicant has provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: 1. Mistake. The EFU zoning designation was likely based on the best available soils data that the County had at the time in the County in the late 1970's when the comprehensive plan and map were adopted and where agricultural zoning was applied to land with no history of farming78. 7 Gallagher's soils analysis report for the subject property determined that the subject property was previously mapped by the USDA-SCS Soil Survey of the Deschutes County Area and compiled by NRCS into the Web Soil Survey. The property was previously mapped at 1:20,000 scale, which is generally too small a scale for detailed land use planning and decision making, according to Gallagher. 8 Source: Agricultural Lands Program, Community Involvement Results, Community Development, Deschutes County. June 18, 2014. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 25 of 57 2. Change in Circumstances: There clearlyhas been a change in circumstances since the property was last zoned in the 1970s. Soils. New soils data provided in the Gallagher soils report shows the property does not have agricultural soils. Farming economics and viability of farm uses in Central Oregon have significantly changed. Making a profit in farming, particularly on smaller parcels such as the subject property, is difficult as stated below in the stakeholder interview of the Deschutes County Farm Bureau in the County's 2014 agricultural Lands Program Community Involvement Results: Today's economics make it extremely dill cult for commercial farmers in Deschutes County to be profitable. Farmers have a difficult time being competitive because other regions (Columbia Basin, Willamette Valley) produce crops at higher yields, havegreater access to transportation and consumer markets, and experience more favorable growing climates and soils. Ultimately, the global economy undermines agricultural opportunities in the county because commodities derived from outside the region can be produced at a lower cost. Water limitations also play a role. Junior water right holders are constrained as the summer progresses and they lose their rights to those with higher priority dates. Decline in farm operations have steadily declined in Deschutes County between 2012 and 2017, with only a small fraction of farm operators achieving a net profit from farming in 2017. (Exhibit 8). Encroaching development east of Bend's Urban Growth Boundary has brought both traffic and higher density residential uses and congestion to the area. The applicant's attorney argued at the public hearing that it is not economical or fiscally responsible to retain the subject property as agricultural/farm land given the fact that it is non -productive land. Patrick McCoy testified at the public hearing that there are several other parcels/tracts that are "getting readyto do the same thing' as the applicant. He also stated that a 59-acre parcel was allowed to "go dead" to meet requirements for a rezone. He is concerned about slowing down growth in this area and further expressed concerns that the subject property is landlocked. Mr. McCoy stated that there is a lot of development occurring within a 2-mile radius of his property. Matt Carey testified at the public hearing that development is increasingly encroaching on green space and animals are getting pushed out. He also expressed concerns about access to the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 26 of 57 Kecia Weaver testified that high schoolers participate in 4H and FFA, raising animals and that smaller parcels of land are used for agriculture on a small scale. She values slow growth and maintaining the rural concept, to preserve open spaces. Ms. Weaver is concerned about the rapid development of large acreage and the impact on deer, rabbits, hawks, eagles and bats. She stated that Ward Road is .75 miles away from the subject property, which is not accessible other than via a gated canal road. Ms. Weaver requested that the applications be denied to slow the growth. She further stated that the applications could be considered at the time the UGB expansion is underway. The Hearings Officer makes the following findings. First, whether or not owners of other properties may, or may not, request a change of comprehensive plan designation and zoning is not relevant to the Hearings Officer's consideration of the current applications. Each application must be considered on its own merits. Second, concerns regarding development encroachment support a finding of change of circumstances. Given the evidence that shows the subject property is not comprised of agricultural soils, and is not land that could be used in conjunction with adjacent property, the requested rezone will provide an appropriate transition between urban City development and rural EFU properties. Third, the Hearings Officer does not have authority to deny the requested applications on the basis of concerns about growth. While understandable, the applications may be granted where, as here, all applicable criteria are met. Fourth, the applicant's attorney commented at the public hearing that delaying the applications until the City considers its next urban growth boundary (UGB) expansion will preclude the subject property from consideration. Fifth, with respect to 4H and FFA activities, the Hearings Officer finds that the requested rezone to MUA-10 will continue to allow for hobby farming. Sixth, concerning wildlife concerns, the Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not within a Wildlife Area combining zone; there are no specific wildlife preservation regulations applicable to the property. There is no evidence that the requested rezone, and and of itself, will impact wildlife. Finally, with respect to access, the Hearings Officer finds that no development is proposed at this time and, therefore, access need not be finally determined. If the subject property is developed in the future, the record shows that access from stubbed streets to the west may be considered. For all the foregoing reasons, and based on evidence in the record that shows declining farm operations and limited numbers of financially successful farm operations (Exhibit 8), the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 27 of 57 Hearings Officer finds that a change of circumstances since the time the property was last zoned exists. This criterion is met. Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan Chapter 2, Resource Management Section 2.2 Agricultural Lands Goal 1, Preserve and maintain agricultural lands and the agricultural industry. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The applicant is pursuing a plan amendment and zone change on the basis that the subject property does not constitute "agricultural lands," and therefore, the subject lands are not necessary to preserve or maintain as such. In the Landholdings decision (and Powell/Ramsey decision) the Hearings Officer found that Goal 1 is an aspirational goal and not an approval criterion. As demonstrated in this application, the subject property does not constitute "agricultural land" and therefore, is not necessary to preserve and maintain the County's agricultural industry. The Gallagher soils report shows the subject property to consist predominantly (63.796) of Class 7 and R non-agricultural soils (Gosney-Rock Outcrop complex). According to Mn Gallagher, these soils have severe limitations for agricultural use as well as low soil fertility, shallow and very shallow soils, abundant rock outcrops and lava tubes, low available water capacity, and major management limitations for livestock grazing. In addition, the minor amount of Deskamp soils (Class 3 irrigated and 6 nonirrigated) are in small isolated pockets and severely restricted by lava tubes, shallow rocky soils, irrigation ditches and property lines that they cannot be used in farming in conjunction with the non -productive Gosney-Rock outcrop. The property also is physically remote from productive farmland as it is adjacent to the City of Bend's urban development to the west and rural residential development to the east and south. Mr. Gallagher concludes that the "landscape is so cut up it is impractical to farm". The Hearings Officer finds Mr. Gallagher's report supports a finding that the subject property does not constitute agricultural land. The subject property is not land that could be used in conjunction with the adjacent property. The requested plan amendment and rezone will not contribute to loss of agricultural land in the surrounding vicinity. The agricultural industry will not be negatively impacted by re -designation and rezoning of the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Section 2.2, Goal 1, "preserve and maintain agricultural lands and the agricultural industry." Policy 2.2.2 Exclusive Farm Use sub -zones shall remain as described in the 1992 Farm Study and shown in the table below, unless adequate legal 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 28 of 57 findings for amending the sub -zones are adopted or an individual parcel is rezoned as allowed by Policy 2.2.3. FINDING: The applicant is not asking to amend the subzone that applies to the subject property; rather, the applicant is seeking a change under Policy 2.2.3 and has provided evidence to support rezoning the subject property to MUA10. The Hearings Officer finds this Policy is inapplicable. Policy 2.2.3 Allow comprehensive plan and zoning map amendments for individual EFU parcels as allowed by State Statute, Oregon Administrative Rules and this Comprehensive Plan. FINDING: The applicant is seeking approval of a plan amendment and zone change to re- designate and rezone the propertyfrom Agricultural to Rural Residential Exception Area. The applicant is not seeking an exception to Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands, but rather seeks to demonstrate that the subject property does not meet the state definition of "Agricultural Land" as defined in Statewide Planning Goal 3 (OAR 660-033-0020). The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: Deschutes County has allowed this approach in previous Hearings Officer's decisions including Porter Kelly Burns Landholdings (247-16-000317-ZC/318-PA), Department of State Lands (PA-11- 7fZC-11-2), Pagel (PA-08-11ZC-08-1), and the Daniels Group (PA-08-1, ZC-08-1). Additionally, the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) allowed this approach in Wetherell v. Douglas County, 52 Or LUBA 677 (2006), where LUBA states, at pp.678-679: 'As we explained in DLCD v. Klamath County, 16 Or LUBA 817, 820 (1988), there are two ways a county can justify a decision to allow nonresource use of land previously designated and zoned for farm use or forest uses. One is to take an exception to Goal 3 (Agricultural Lands) and Goal 4 (Forest Lands). The other is to adopt findings which demonstrate the land does not qualify either as forest lands or agricultural lands under the statewide planning goals. When a county pursues the latter option, it must demonstrate that despite the prior resource plan and zoning designation, neither Goal 3 nor Goal 4 applies to the property. Caine v. Tillamook County, 25 Or LUBA 209,218 (1993), DLCD v. Josephine County, 18 Or LUBA 798, 802 (1990)." LUBA's decision in Wetherell has appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals and the Oregon Supreme Court but neither court disturbed LUBA's ruling on this point. In fact, the Oregon Supreme Court changed the test for determining whether land is agricultural land to make it less stringent. Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666, 160 P3d 614 (2007). In that case, the Supreme Court stated that: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 29 of 57 "Under Goal 3, land must be preserved as agricultural land if it is suitable for farm use'as defined in ORS215.203(2)(a), which means, in part, 'the current employment of land for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money'through specific farming -related endeavors." Wetherell, 342 Or at 677. The Wetherell court held that when deciding whether land is agricultural land "a local government may not be precluded from considering the costs or expenses of engaging in those activities." Wetherell, 342 Or at 680. The facts presented in the subject application are sufficiently similar to those in the Wetherell decisions and in the above -mentioned Deschutes County plan amendment and zone change applications. The subject property is primarily composed of Class 7 or 8 nonagricultural soils making farm -related endeavors not profitable. This application complies with Policy 2.2.3. The Hearings Officer finds that the facts presented by the applicant in the burden of proof for the subject applications are similar to those in the Wetherell decisions and in the aforementioned Deschutes County plan amendment and zone change applications. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant established the property is not agricultural land and does not require an exception to Goal 3 under state law. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Policy 2.2.3. Policy 2.2.4 Develop comprehensive policy criteria and code to provide clarity on when and how EFU parcels can be converted to other designations. FINDING: This plan policy provides direction to Deschutes County to develop new policies to provide clarity when EFU parcels can be converted to other designations. The policy is not directed to an individual applicant, as the Hearings Officers found in the Landholdings decision and Powell/Ramsey decision. The Hearings Officer finds that, based on the County's previous determinations in plan amendment and zone change applications, the proposal is consistent with this Policy. Goal 3, Ensure Exclusive Farm Use policies, classifications and codes are consistent with local and emerging agricultural conditions and markets. Policy 2.2.13 Identify and retain accurately designated agricultural lands. FINDING: This plan policy requires the County to identify and retain agricultural lands that are accurately designated. The policy is not directed to an individual applicant, as the Hearings Officers found in the Landholdings decision and Powell/Ramsey decision. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property was not accurately designated as demonstrated by the soil study, NRCS soil data, and the applicant's burden of proof. Further discussion on the soil analysis provided by the analysis is set forth in the findings under the OAR Division 33 criteria below. The Hearings Officer finds the proposal is consistent with this Policy. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 30 of 57 Section 2.5 Water Resources Policies Goal 6, Coordinate land use and water policies. Policy2.5.24 Ensure water impacts are reviewed and, if necessary, addressed for significant land uses or developments. FINDING: The applicant is not proposing a specific development application at this time. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant is not required to demonstrate water impacts associated with development. Rather, the applicant will be required to address this criterion during development of the subject property, which would be reviewed under any necessary land use process for the site (e.g. conditional use permit, tentative plat). The Hearings Officer finds this Policy does not apply to the subject applications. Chapter 3, Rural Growth Section 3.2, Rural Development Growth Potential As of 2010, the strong population growth of the last decade in Deschutes County was thought to have leveled off due to the economic recession. Besides flatter growth patterns, changes to State regulations opened up additional opportunities for new rural development The following list identifies general categories for creating new residential lots, all of which are subject to specific State regulations. • • Some farm lands with poor soils that are adjacent to rural residential uses can be rezoned as rural residential FINDING: This section of the Comprehensive Plan does not contain Goals or Policies, but does provide the guidance above. In response to this section, the applicant's burden of proof provides the following: As shown above, the County's Comprehensive Plan provisions anticipate the need for additional rural residential lots as the region continues to grow. This includes providing a mechanism to rezone farm lands with poor soils to a rural residential zoning designation. While the rezone application does not include the creation of new residential lots, the applicant has demonstrated the subject property is comprised of poor soils that are adjacent to rural residential MUA-10 zone uses to the east and south as well as urban residential zones within the Bend city limits to the west. Rezoning the subject property to MUA-10 is consistent with this criterion, as it will provide for an orderly and efficient transition from the Bend Urban Growth Boundary to rural and agricultural lands. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 31 of 57 The MUA-10 Zone is a rural residential zone and as discussed in the Findings of Fact above, there are many adjacent properties to the south and east that are zoned MUA 10. Additionally, the properties to the west are within urban residential zones within the city limits of Bend. The Hearings Officer notes this policy references the soil quality, which is discussed above. The Hearings Officer finds that rezoning the subject property to MUA-0 is consistent with Section 3.2, Chapter 3 of the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan as it will provide for an orderly and efficient transition from the Bend UGB to rural and agricultural lands. Section 3.3, Rural Housing Rural Residential Exception Areas In Deschutes County most rural lands are designated for farms, forests or other resources and protected as described in the Resource Management chapter of this Plan. The majority of the land not recognized as resource lands or Unincorporated Community is designated Rural Residential Exception Area. The County had to follow a process under Statewide Goal 2 to explain why these lands did not warrant farm or forest zoning. The major determinant was that many of these lands were platted for residential use before Statewide Planning was adopted. In 1979 the County assessed that there were over 17,000 undeveloped Rural Residential Exception Area parcels, enough to meet anticipated demand for new rural housing. As of 2010 any new Rural Residential Exception Areas need to be justified through taking exceptions to farm, forest, public facilities and services and urbanization regulations, and follow guidelines set out in the OAR. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the burden of proof: Prior Hearings Officer's decisions have found that Section 3.3 is not a plan policy or directive9 Further, no goal exception to Statewide Planning Goal 3 is required for the rezone application because the subject property does not qualify as farm or forest zoning or agricultural lands under the statewide planninggoals. The County has interpreted the RREA plan designation as the proper "catchall" designation for non -resource land and therefore, the Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) plan designation is the appropriate plan designation to apply to the subject propertyro 9 See PA-11-17/ZC-11-2, 247-16-000317-ZC, 318-PA, and 247-18-000485-PA, 486-ZC 10The Hearings Officer's decision for PA-11-17/ZC-11-2 concerning this language of Section 3.3 states: To the extent that the quoted language above represents a policy, it appears to be directed at a fundamentally different situation than the one presented in this application. The quoted language addresses conversions of'farm"or "forest"land to rural residential use. In those cases, the language 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 32 of 57 Based on past Deschutes County Hearings Officer interpretations, the Hearings Officer finds that the above language is not a policy and does not require an exception to the applicable Statewide Planning Goal 3. The Hearings Officer finds the proposed RREA plan designation is the appropriate plan designation to apply to the subject property. Section 3.7, Transportation Appendix C - Transportation System Plan ARTERIAL AND COLLECTOR ROAD PLAN Goal4. Establish a transportation system, supportive of a geographically distributed and diversified economic base, while also providing a safe, efficient network for residential mobility and tourism. Policy 4.4 Deschutes County shall consider roadway function, classification and capacity as criteria for plan map amendments and zone changes. This shall assure that proposed land uses do not exceed the planned capacity of the transportation system. FINDING: This plan policy applies to the County and advises it to consider the roadway function, classification and capacity as criteria for plan amendments and zone changes. The County will comply with this direction by determining compliance with the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) aka OAR 660-012, as described below in subsequent findings. OREGON ADMINISTRATIVE RULES CHAPTER 660, LAND CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Division 6, Goal 4 - Forest Lands OAR 660-006-0005, Definitions indicates that some type of exception under state statute and DLCD rules will be required in order to support a change in Comprehensive Plan designation. See ORS 197.732 and OAR 660, Division 004. That is not what this application seeks to do. The findings below explain that the applicant has been successful in demonstrating that the subject property is composed predominantly of nonagricultural soil types. Therefore, it is permissible to conclude that the property is not'farmland" as defined under state statute, DLCD rules, and that it is not correctly zoned for exclusive farm use. As such, the application does not seek to convert "agricultural land" to rural residential use. If the land is demonstrated to not be composed of agricultural soils, then there is no "exception" to be taken. There is no reason that the applicant should be made to demonstrate a reasons, developed or committed exception under state law because the subject property is not composed of the type of preferred land which the exceptions process was designed to protect. For all these reasons, the Hearings Officer concludes that the applicant is not required to obtain an exception to Goal 3. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 33 of 57 (7) "Forest lands" as defined in Goal 4 are those lands acknowledged as forest lands, or, in the case of a plan amendment, forest lands shall include. (a) Lands that are suitable for commercial forest uses, including adjacent or nearby lands which are necessary to permit forest operations or practices, and (b) Other forested lands that maintain soil, air, water and fish and wildlife resources. FINDING: The subject property is not zoned for forest lands, nor are any of the properties within a two-mile radius. The property does not contain merchantable tree species and there is no evidence in the record that the property has been employed for forestry uses historically. None of the soil units comprising the parcel is rated for forest uses according to NRCS data. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property does not constitute forest land. Division 33 - Agricultural Lands & Statewide Planning Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands; OAR 660-015-0000(3) To preserve and maintain agricultural lands. Agricultural lands shall be preserved and maintained for farm use, consistent with existing and future needs for agricultural products, forest and open space and with the state's agricultural land use policy expressed in ORS 215.243 and 215.700. FINDING: Goal 3 defines "Agricultural Land," which is repeated in OAR 660-033-0020(1). The Hearings Officer's findings below are incorporated herein by reference. OAR 660-033-0020, Definitions For purposes of this division, the definitions in ORS 197.015, the Statewide Planning Goals, and OAR Chapter 660 shall apply. In addition, the following definitions shall apply. (1)(a) "Agricultural land" as defined in Goal includes: (A) Lands classified by the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) as predominantly Class I -IV soils in Western Oregon and I -VI soils in Eastern Oregon"; ii OAR 660-033-0020(5): "Eastern Oregon" means that portion of the state lying east of a line beginning at the intersection of the northern boundary of the State of Oregon and the western boundary of Wasco County, then south along the western boundaries of the Counties of Wasco, Jefferson, Deschutes and Klamath to the southern boundary of the State of Oregon. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 34 of 57 FINDING: The applicant's decision not to request an exception to Goal 3 is based on the premise that the subject property is not defined as "Agricultural Land." In support, the applicant offers the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not properly classified as Agricultural Land and does not merit protection under Goal 3. The soils are predominately Class 7 and 8 soils as shown by the more detailed soils report prepared by soils scientist Andy Gallagher, which State law, OAR 660-033-0030, allows the County to rely on for more accurate soils information. Mr. Gallagher found that approximately 64% of the soils on the subject property (about 24 acres) is Land Capability Class 7 and 8 soils that have severe limitations for farm use. He also found the site to have low soil fertility, shallow and very shallow soils, abundant rock outcrops and rock fragments in the surface, lava tubes, and irrigation ditches, low available water capacity, and limiting areas suitable for grazing and restricting livestock accessibility, all of which are considerations for the determination for suitability for farm use. Because the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils, the property does not meet the definition of 'Agricultural Lands" under OAR 660-033- 0020(1)(a)(A) listed above, that is having predominantly Class I-Vl soils. The Hearings Officer finds that the soil study provided by Mr. Gallagher of Red Hill Soils is an accurate representation of the data for the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds, based on the submitted soil study and the above OAR definition, that the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils and, therefore, does not constitute "Agricultural Lands" as defined in OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(A) above. (8) Land in other soil classes that is suitable for farm use as defined in ORS 215.203(2)(a), taking into consideration soil fertility; suitability for grazing; climatic conditions, existing and future availability of water for farm irrigation purposes; existing land use patterns, technological and energy inputs required, and accepted farming practices, and FINDING: The applicant's decision not to request an exception to Goal 3 is based on the premise that the subject property is not defined as "Agricultural Land." The applicant provides the following analysis of this determination in the burden of proof. This part of the definition of "Agricultural Land" requires the County to consider whether the Class 7 and 8 soils found on the subject property are suitable far farm use despite their Class 7 and 8 classification. The Oregon Supreme Court has determined that the term 'farm use" as used in this rule and Goal 3 means the current employment of land for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money through specific farming -related endeavors. The costs of engaging in farm use are relevant to determining whether farm activities are profitable and this is a factor in determining whether land is agricultural land Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666, 160 P3d 614 (2007). 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 35 of 57 The subject property does not have water rights, has not been farmed, or used in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) map shown on the CounVs G/S mapping program identifies two soil complex units on the property. 36A, Deskamp loamy sand and 58C, Gosney-Rock outcrop-Deskamp complex. The predominant soil complex on the subject property is 58C 58C is not a high value soil as defined by Deschutes County Code. 36A is considered a high value soil when irrigated. However, as discussed in detail below, there is no irrigation on the property and an Agricultural Soils Capability Assessment (Order 1 soil survey) conducted on the property by soil scientist, Andy Gallagher, determined that the property is not agricultural land, that the class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. (See Exhibit 5 for Mr. Gallagher's Soil Assessment Report). A review of the seven considerations listed in the administrative rule, below, shows why the poor soils found on the subject property are not suitable for farm use that can be expected to be profitable: Soil Fertility: Mr. Gallagher made the following findings regarding soil fertility on the subject property: "Important soil properties affecting the soil fertility and productivity of the soils are very limiting to crop production [emphasis added by applicant] on this parcel. The soils here are low fertility, being ashy sandy foams with a low cation exchange capacity (CEC) of 7.5 meq/100 gm and organic matter is verylow for Gosney 0.75% and low for Deskamps 1.5%. These soils do not have a large capacity to store soil nutrients especially cations, and nitrogen fertilizers readily leach in sandy soils. The soil depth is further limiting because it limits the overall volume of soil available for plant roots and limits the size the overall nutrient pool. Additionally, the soil available water holding capacity is very low for Gosney less than 1.8 inches for the whole soil profile, and for the very shallow soils it is half this much. The Deskamps soils have only about 2 to 4 inches AWHC translate into low productivity for crops. NRCS does not provide any productivity data for non -irrigated crops on these soils. The productivity of irrigated alfalfa is 4 tons per acre for Deskamps, and no rating for Gosney is same as a zero. There are perhaps 7 acres that could produce alfalfa with irrigation that could produce 28 tons alfalfa under irrigation and high fertility but after costs this would amount to no profit." The fact that these soils are low fertility unless made fertile through artificial means supports the applicant's position that the Class 7 soils and the entire property is not suitable for farm use. The costs to purchase and apply fertilizer and soil amendments and the costs to sample and test soils are a part of the reason why it is not profitable to farm the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 36 of 57 Unsuitability for Grazing: Mr. Gallagher also reviewed whether the parcel is suitable for grazing and found: 'This 37.7-acre parcel is not suited to grazing on a commercial scale [emphasis added by applicant]. The soils here have major management limitations including ashy and sandy surface texture. The majority of the area has soils that are very shallow to shallow with many rock outcrops and rock fragments in the surface. Wind erosion is a potential hazard is moderately high when applying range improvement practices. Because the soil is influenced by pumice ash, reestablishment of the native vegetation is very slow if the vegetation is removed or deteriorated. Pond development is limited by the soil depth. The restricted soil depth limits the choice of species for range seeding to drought -tolerant varieties. Further, range seeding with ground equipment is limited by the rock fragments on the surface. The areas of very shallow soils and rock outcrop limit the areas suitable for grazing and restrict livestock accessibility.

It includes all vegetation, whether or not it is palatable to grazing animals. It includes the current year's growth of leaves, twigs, and fruits of woody plants. It does not include the increase in stem diameter of trees and shrubs. It is expressed in pounds per acre of air-dry vegetation. in a normal year, growing conditions are about average. Yields are adjusted to a common percent of air-dry moisture content. The productivity provided for Dk map unit is from Websoil survey for the Deskamp soil and that provided for the GR map unit is based on 40% very shallow soils, 35% Gosney and 2596 rock outcrop. Based on previous NRCS map has a weighted average annual productivity of 669 pounds per acre in a normal year. Based on the revised Order-1 map the annual productivity is even lower, 540 pounds per acre. The animal use months (AUMs) for this 37.7 acre parcel is 5.5 based on the revised soil map and a monthly value of 910 pounds forage per 1 AUM equivalent to pounds per cow calf pair. This model assumes the cow's take to be 25% of annual productivity in order to maintain site productivity and soil health (NRCS 2009). This 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 37 of 57 limits the grazing to one cow calf pair roughly 5 to 6 months annually. This is not an economical model for livestock production [emphasis added by applicant]. Inappropriate grazing causes a reduction in desirable grasses and where present cheatgrass will increase and granite pricklygilia increases and grasses decline. Cheatgrass becomes dominate along with grey rabbitbrush. Ground fire potential increases with increasing cheatgrass. Cutting of juniper leads to an increase in grey rabbitbrush and an increase in cheatgrass with or without grazing. Idaho fescue is eliminated from areas where trees are removed due to harsh microclimate and cheatgrass replaces it. The addition of inappropriate grazing would lead to a decline in the other deep-rooted perennial bunchgrasses and an increase in annuals and granite pricklygilia." Climatic Conditions According to Mr. Gallagher, climatic conditions of this area make is [sic] difficult for production of most crops, as stated below. 'The low annual precipitation, high summer temperature and evapotranspiration rates, and shortened frost free growing season make this a difficult climate for production of most crops [emphasis added by applicant]. Irrigation is needed on area farms to meet crop needs given only 8 to 90 inches precipitation that falls mainly between November and June, with a long summer drought. The soil temperature regime is mesic. The average annual air temperature is 46 degrees F with extreme temperatures ranging from -26 to 104 degrees F. The frost free period is 50 to 90 days. The optimum period for plant growth is from late March through June. Freeze free period (average) 140 days. (NRCS 2020) These harsh climatic conditions coupled with very low soil available water holding capacity limits the potential of irrigated crop production to the Deskamps soils." Existing and Future Availability of Water for Farm Irrigation Purposes: No new irrigation water rights are expected to be available to the Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) in the foreseeable future. In order to obtain water rights, the applicant would need to convince another COID customer to remove water rights from their property and sell them to the applicant and obtain State and COID approval to apply the water rights to the subject property. in such a transaction, water rights would be taken off productive farm ground and applied to the nonagricultural soils found on the subject property. Such a transaction runs counter to the purpose of Goal 3 to maintain productive Agricultural Land in farm use. Given the poor quality of these soils, it is highly unlikely that Central Oregon Irrigation District would approve a transfer of water rights to this property. In addition, no person intending to make a profit in farming would go to the expense of purchasing water rights, mapping the water rights and establishing an irrigation system to irrigate the lands on the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 38 of 57 Given the dry climate, it is necessary to irrigate the subject property to grow an alfalfa crop and to maintain a pasture. A farmer would need to spend significant sums of money to purchase water rights, irrigation systems, maintain the systems, pay laborers to move and monitor equipment, obtain electricity, pay irrigation district assessments and pay increased liability insurance premiums for the risks involved with farming operations. Irrigating the soils found on the subject property as described by Mr. Gallagher, that have low fertility, low capacity to store nutrients, and very low available water holding capacity translates into low productivity for crops that would amount to no profit. Existing Land Use Patterns Existing land use patterns in the area are primarily non-agricultural related land uses including urban development to the west within the Bend City limits, County exception lands zoned MUA-10 developed with homes and small acres of irrigation for pasture and other hobby farm uses to the east and south, and irrigated farmland zoned EFU-TRB to the north and northeast. The EFU-zoned properties to the north and northeast include: North and northeast of the subject property is a pocket of EFU-zoned property. The adjacent property to the north, tax lot 18-12-02-1001, is a 12.45-acre EFU-zoned property that is partially irrigated and developed with a nonfarm dwelling ale no. CU-01-75). Northeast is tax lot 18-12-02-201, a 53.30-acre farm parcel that is irrigated and engaged in hay production, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a dwelling and outbuildings. The close proximity to the City of Bend and residential areas limit the types of agricultural activities that could reasonably be conducted for profit on the subject property. The subject property would not be suitable for raising animals that are disturbed by noise. Additionally, the property owner would bear the burden of paying for harm that might be caused by livestock escape, in particular livestock and vehicle collisions. Any agricultural use that requires the application of pesticides and herbicides would be very difficult to conduct on the property given the numerous homes located in close proximity to the property. In addition, the creation of dust which accompanies the harvesting of crops is a major concern on this property due to the close proximity residential use. Technological and Energy Inputs Required: According to Mr. Gallagher. 'The veryshallow and shallow soils and abundant rock outcrops limit practical agricultural crop production on all but about 7 acres out of the 10 acres of Deskamps soils. The Deskamps soils are into four separate delineations that are separated by rocky and shallow soils and rock outcrops and lava tubes as well as irrigation ditches. The landscape 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 39 of 57 is so cut up it is impractical to farm [emphasis added by applicant]. The best case scenario for crop production is for an area approximately seven acres along the north edge of the parcel that is spotted with rock outcrops and is of a very irregular shape. This area could at most produce about 28 tons of alfalfa under high fertilizer inputs and high irrigation water inputs. Current hay prices are from $200.00 to $250.00 per ton which would give an annual gross of about $5,600.00 to $7,000.00, before expenses. After expenses are deducted for land costs, site preparation, planting, costs of production like irrigation, fertilizer, weed control, costs of harvest including swath, rake, and bale, stack, and costs of handling, storage and marketing there would be no profit associated with producing hay crops on such a small area [emphasis added by applicant]." Accepted Farming Practices Farming lands comprised of soils that are predominately Class 7 and 8 is not an accepted farm practice in Central Oregon. Dryland grazing, the farm use that can be conducted on the poorest soils in the County, typically occurs on Class 6 non -irrigated soils that have a higher soils class if irrigated. The applicant would have to go above and beyond accepted farming practices to even attempt to farm the property for dryland grazing. Crops are typicallygrown on soils in soil class 3 and 4 that have irrigation, which this property has neither. The Hearings Officer finds that many of the factors surrounding the subject property, such as the proximity to the Bend city limits, current residential and non-agricultural related land uses in the area, soil fertility, spotty/small areas of Class 3 (irrigated) and Class 6 (non - irrigated) soils, and lack of availability of water rights, result in an extremely low possibility of successful farming on the subject property. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property, primarily comprised of Class 7 and 8 soils, is not suitable for farm use as defined in ORS 215.203(2)(a), taking into consideration the soil fertility, suitability for grazing, climactic conditions, existing and future availability of water for farm irrigation purposes, existing land use patterns, technological and energy outputs required and accepted farming practices. Substantial evidence in the record supports a determination that the subject property cannot be employed for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money through farming -related endeavors, considering the costs of engaging in farm use. Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666,160 P3d 614 (2007). Soils on the subject property can only be made fertile through artificial means, which is cost prohibitive from a profitability standpoint. The subject property is not suitable to grazing on a commercial scale given management limitations and expected low production of suitable vegetation. Climactic conditions result in difficulty for production of most crops. Given the fact that no new irrigation water rights are expected to be available to the COID in the foreseeable future and the poor quality of soils on the subject property, it is unlikely COID would approve a transfer of water rights to the property. Existing land use patterns also limit the suitability of grazing animals on the subject property which is in close proximity to the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 40 of 57 City of Bend. A limited, approximately 7-acre portion of the subject property that could, at most, produce 28 tons of alfalfa with high fertilizer and water inputs, would not generate any profit after expenses are deducted for land costs, site preparation, planting and costs of production (irrigation, fertilizer, weed control, cost of harvest and cost of handling storage and marketing). Accepted farm practices in Central Oregon do not include farming lands comprised of soils that are predominantly Class 7 and 8. In order to conduct dryland grazing on the subject property, the applicant would have to take measures beyond accepted farming practices, including attempting to obtain a water rights transfer. (C) Land that is necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby agricultural lands. FINDING: The applicant offers the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not land necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. The nearest agriculturally zoned land engaged in farm use to the subject property is located northeast on tax lot 18-12-02-201. This property is a 53.30-acre farm parcel that is irrigated and engaged in hay production, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a dwelling and outbuildings. The farm operations on tax Lot 201 operate independently and are not dependent upon the subject property to conduct its farm practices. This is evidenced by the subject property being owned by the applicant since 1930 and has never been farmed, much less combined with tax lot 201 in any way for agricultural purposes. Farming operations on tax lot 201 will be able to continue to occur if the subject property is rezoned to MUA-10. Further, the poor quality soils and lack of irrigation are not suited to agricultural production and make the subject property unsuitable for farm practices on the nearby agricultural land. The Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not necessary for the purposes of permitting farm practices on the nearby Tax Lot 201 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) based on the factors discussed in the previous finding. (b) Land in capability classes other than I-1V/I-VI that is adjacent to or intermingled with lands in capability classes 1-IV/141 within a farm unit, shall be inventoried as agricultural lands even though this land may not be cropped or grazed, FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not and has not been a part of a farm unit that includes other lands not currently owned by the applicant. The property has no history of farm use and contains soils that make it unsuitable for farm use and therefore, no basis to inventory the subject property as agricultural land. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 41 of 57 Goal 3 applies a predominant soil type test to determine if a property is "agricultural land". If a majority of the soils is Class 1-6 in in Central or Eastern Oregon, it must be classified "agricultural land." 1000 Friends position is that this is a 100% Class 7 -8 soils test rather than a 51% Class 7 and 8 soils test because the presence of any Class 1-6 soil requires the County to identify the entire property "agricultural land." Case law indicates that the Class 1 -6 soil test applies to a subject property proposed for a non-agricultural plan designation while the farm unit rule looks out beyond the boundaries of the subject property to consider how the subject property relates to lands in active farming in the area that were once a part of the area proposed for rezoning. It is not a test that requires that 100% of soils on a subject property be Class 1-6. The farm unit rule is written to preserve large farming operations in a block. It does this by preventing property owners from dividing farmland into smaller properties that, alone, do not meet the definition of "agricultural land." The subject property is not formerly part of a larger area of land that is or was used for farming operations and was then divided to isolate poor soils so that land could be removed from EFU zoning. As demonstrated by the historic use patterns and soils reports, it does not have poor soils adjacent to or intermingled with good soils within a farm unit. The subject property is not in farm use and has not been in farm use of any kind. It has no history of commercial farm use and contains soils that make the property generally unsuitable for farm use as the term is defined by State law. It is not a part of a farm unit with other land. The subject property is predominately Class 7 and 8 soils and would not be considered a farm unit itself nor part of a larger farm unit based on the poor soils and the fact that none of the adjacent property is farmed. As shown by the soils capability study by Mr. Gallagher, the predominant soil type found on the subject property is Class 7 and 8, nonagricultural land (63.7%). The predominance test says that the subject property is not agricultural soil and the farm unit rule does not require that the Class 7-8 soils that comprise the majority of the subject property be classified as agricultural land due to the presence of a small amount of Class 1-6 soils on the subject property that are not employed in farm use and are not part of a farm unit. As a result, this rule does not require the Class 7 and 8 soils on the subject property to be classified agricultural land because a minority of the property contains soils rated Class 6. The Hearings Officer finds that there are no bases on which to find that the subject property shall be inventoried as agricultural lands under this criterion. The property does not relate to land in active farming, and there are no parcels in the area that were once part of the subject property. A majority of the soils (63.7%) are not Class 1-6. Therefore, under the predominance test, the subject property is not agricultural. The farm unit rule does not mandate a different result. The subject property is not employed in farm use and is not now, nor in the past, part of a farm unit. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 42 of 57 (c) "Agricultural Land" does not include land within acknowledged urban growth boundaries or land within acknowledged exception areas for Goal 3 or 4. FINDING: The subject property is not within an acknowledged urban growth boundary or land within acknowledged exception areas for Goals 3 or 4. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is inapplicable. OAR 660-033-0030, Identifying Agricultural Land (1) All land defined as "agricultural land" in OAR 660-033-0020(1) shall be inventoried as agricultural land. (2) When a jurisdiction determines the predominant soil capability classification of a lot or parcel it need only look to the land within the lot or parcel being inventoried. However, whether land is "suitable for farm use" requires an inquiry into factors beyond the mere identification of scientific soil classifications. The factors are listed in the definition of agricultural land set forth at OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(B). This inquiry requires the consideration of conditions existing outside the lot or parcel being inventoried. Even if a lot or parcel is not predominantly Class I -IV soils or suitable for farm use, Goal 3 nonetheless defines as agricultural "lands in other classes which are necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands". A determination that a lot or parcel is not agricultural land requires findings supported by substantial evidence that addresses each of the factors set forth in 660-033-0020(1). FINDING: The applicant addressed the factors in OAR 660-033-0020(1) above. As the Hearings Officer has found herein, the property is not "agricultural land," as referenced in OAR 660-033-0030(1), and contains barriers for farm use including poor quality soils and lack of irrigation. The Hearings Officer finds that substantial evidence in the record shows the subject property is not "agricultural land" because the property is predominantly Class 7 and 8 soils. As the Hearings Officer found above, the subject property is not necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. (3) Goal 3 attaches no significance to the ownership of a lot or parcel when determining whether it is agricultural land. Nearby or adjacent land, regardless of ownership, shall be examined to the extent that a lot or parcel is either "suitable for farm use" or "necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands" outside the lot or parcel. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 43 of 57 FINDING: The Hearings Officer finds that evidence in the record, including examination of lands outside the boundaries of the subject property, shows the subject property is not "agricultural land." Substantial evidence shows that the subject property is not suitable for farm use and is not necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. (5)(a) More detailed data on soil capability than is contained in the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) soil maps and soil surveys may be used to define agricultural land. However, the more detailed soils data shall be related to the NRCS land capability classification system. (b) if a person concludes that more detailed soils information than that contained in the Web Soil Survey operated by the NRCS as of january2, 2012, would assist a county to make a better determination of whether land qualifies as agricultural land, the person must request that the department arrange for an assessment of the capability of the land by a professional soil classifier who is chosen by the person, using the process described in OAR 660-033-0045. FINDING: The soil study prepared by Mr. Gallagher (Exhibit 5) provides more detailed soils information than contained in the NRCS Web Soil Survey. Exhibit 5 includes the Soil Assessment Completeness Review conducted by DLCD pursuant to OAR 660-033-0045(6)(a), dated February 12, 2021, confirming the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher meets the requirements for agricultural soils capability reporting. Mr. Gallagher's soils assessment report provides a high intensity Order-1 soil survey and soil assessment - a detailed and accurate soils assessment on the subject property based on numerous soil samples - to determine if the subject property is "agricultural land" within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020. As explained in Mr. Gallagher's report, the NRCS soil map of the subject property shows two general soil mapping units, 58C and 36A. The more detailed Order-1 survey conducted by Mr. Gallagher included 41 soil test pits, in addition to observations of surface rock on the parcel. The results of the previous and revised soils mapping units with land capability class are provided in Table 1 below. The soils report is related to the NCRS Land Capability Classification (LLC) system that classifies soils class 1 through 8. An LCC rating is assigned to each soil type based on rules provided by the NRCS. The soils report provides more detailed soils information than contained on the Web Soil Survey operated by the NRCS, which provides general soils data at a scale generally too small for detailed land use planning and decision making. The NRCS mapping for the subject property is shown below in Figure 1. According to the NRCS Web Soil Survey tool, the property contains approximately 33.7% 36A soil and contains 66.3% 58C soil. The soils study conducted by Mr. Gallagher finds the soil types on the subject 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 44 of 57 property vary from the NRCS identified soil types. The soil types described by Mr. Gallagher (as quoted from Exhibit 5) and the characteristics and LCC rating are shown in Table 1 below. GR Gosney-Rock Outcrop Complex Capability Class: 7 and 8 mapped as complex These soils are mapped together in a complex because both components are Capability Class 7 or greater, and it was not practical to map them separately. These soils are estimated to be about 25 percent Rock Outcrop and 75 percent Gosney. They have lower productivity than NRCS map unit 38B because they do not contain a mappable area of Deskamp soils that were mapped separately. The productivity reported in Table 2 for Gosney-Rock Outcrop are 20 percent less than the 58C map unit to account for more shallow and very shallow soils in the GR map unit in the revised map unit. Based on the observations here, the map unit is about 40 percent very shallow soils, 35 percent Gosney soils, and 25 percent rock outcrops. Gosney loamy sand and stony loamy sand (0 to 15 percent slopes) Description: Gosney series consists of shallow (10 to 20 inches) to hard basalt bedrock, somewhat excessively drained soils on lava plains. These soils have rapid permeability. They formed in volcanic ash over hard basalt bedrock. Slopes are 0 to 15 percent. The mean annual precipitation is less than 12 inches, and the mean annual temperature is about 45 degrees F. Capability Class: 7 Soil Variability. Depth to bedrock is from surface exposures of bedrock to 20 inches depth. There may be small inclusions of soils like Deskamp that are moderately deep (>20 inches to 40 inches). Many of the pedons are very stony. This unit includes very shallow soils <10 inches. Very shallow phase 0-15 percent slopes Description: This component of the complex is less than 10 inches to basalt. Capability Class: 7 Soil Variability: Depth to bedrock is from 1 to 10 inches. These soils are very shallow and of similar parent material to Gosney. These soils have lower available water holding capacity and an estimated 40 percent lower productivity. Rock Outcrop (0 to 15 percent slopes) Description: This part of the map unit is areas where bedrock is at the surface. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 45 of 57 Capability Cuss: 8 Soil Variability: In places, rocks are right at the surface and often times bedrock is standing several feet above the surface of the adjacent soils. In some areas (borings 39-41) there is rimrock, large boulders and other surface stone where suspected lava tubes collapsed. Dk Deskamp loamy sand Description: This map unit is mainly moderately deep, somewhat excessively drained soils with rapid permeability on lava plains. These soils formed in ash and have hard basalt at 20 to 40 inches. Slopes are 1 to 15 percent. The A and AB horizon are loamy sand. The 2B is loamy sand and gravelly loamy sand. The NRCS soils survey mapped Deskamp and Gosney in a complex described as 50% Deskamp and 35% Gosney. In this Dk unit I delineated the Deskamp component of the former complex and mapped it as a consociation based on more detailed soil sampling than the NRCS soil survey. This soil covers approximately 11 acres of the parcel and is broken up into several small delineations two of which are less than an acre. These small and isolated areas are impractical to farm. The largest delineation is 8.5 acres and has at least three areas of rock outcrop that were delineated within. Capability Class: 3-irrigated and 6 non -irrigated Soil Variability: There are small inclusions of rock outcrop and of deep soils with sandy skeletal family. Any rock outcrop I observed in the field was delineated from the Deskamp unit, but because not all rock outcrops could be resolved at the one boring per acre average sampling intensity, given the brushy conditions. CN irrigation Canals Description: These canals are non -soil areas that consist of water and steep banks. When canals are dry they are hard rock bottom. Capability Class: Not Rated Based on Mr. Gallagher's qualifications as a certified Soil Scientist and Soil Classifier, the Hearings Officer finds the submitted soil study to be definitive and accurate in terms of site - specific soil information for the subject property. The state's agricultural land rules, OAR 660-033-0030, allow the County to rely on the soil capability analysis prepared by Mr. Gallagher, which is more detailed than the NRCS soil maps and soil surveys and the Web Soil Survey operated bythe NRCS as oflanuary 2, 2012. The Hearings Officerfinds thatthe Order- 1 soil survey is related to the NRCS land capability classification system. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 46 of 57 The Hearings Officer finds that the more detailed soils information in the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher assists the County to make a better determination of whether the subject property qualifies as agricultural land. As set forth above, DLCD completed a Soil Assessment Completeness Review pursuant to OAR 660-033-0045(6)(a), confirming the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher meets the requirements for agricultural soils capability reporting. For all the foregoing reasons, the Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not "agricultural land," Table 1- Summary of Order I Soil Survey Previous Revised Capability Class Previous Revised Map Map Map Soil Series Name Ma " Ac "%.

(d) This section and OAR 660-033-0045 implement ORS 215.211, effective on October 1, 2011. After this date, only those soils assessments certified by the department under section (9) of this rule may be considered by local governments in land use proceedings described in subsection (c) of this section. However, a local government may consider soils assessments that have been completed and submitted prior to October 1, 2011. FINDING: The applicant submitted a soils study by Mr. Gallagher of Red Hill Soils dated December 2, 2020. The soils study was submitted following the ORS 215.211 effective date. Staff received acknowledgement via email on February 16, 2021, from Hilary Foote, Farm/Forest Specialist with the DLCD that the soils study is complete and consistent with DLCD's reporting requirements. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion to be met based on the submitted soils study and confirmation of completeness and consistency from DLCD. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 48 of 57 (e) This section and OAR 660-033-0045 authorize a person to obtain additional information for use in the determination of whether land qualifies as agricultural land, but do not otherwise affect the process by which a county determines whether land qualifies as agricultural land as defined by Goal 3 and OAR 660-033-0020. FINDING: The applicant has provided a DLCD certified soils study as well as NRCS soils data. The Hearings Officer finds that the applicant has complied with the soils analysis requirements of OAR 660-033-0045 in order to obtain DLCD certification. DLCD's certification establishes compliance with OAR 660-033-0045. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. DIVISION 12, TRANSPORTATION PLANNING OAR 660-012-0060 Plan and Land use Regulation Amendments (1) if an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, or a land use regulation (including a zoning map) would significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility, then the local government must put in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the amendment is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. A plan or land use regulation amendment significantly affects a transportation facility if it would. (a) Change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility (exclusive of correction of map errors in an adopted plan); (b) Change standards implementing a functional classification system, or (c) Result in any of the effects listed in paragraphs (A) through (C) of this subsection based on projected conditions measured at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP. As part of evaluating projected conditions, the amount of traffic projected to be generated within the area of the amendment may be reduced if the amendment includes an enforceable, ongoing requirement that would demonstrably limit traffic generation, including, but not limited to, transportation demand management. This reduction may diminish or completely eliminate the significant effect of the amendment. (A) Types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility, (B) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 49 of 57 performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or (C) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. FINDING: As referenced in the agency comments section in the Findings of Fact above, the Senior Transportation Plannerfor Deschutes County initially requested a revised traffic study for the applications. The applicant submitted an updated report from Transight Consulting LLC dated June 8, 2021, to address identified concerns and no further comments were received from the County's Senior Transportation Planner. The update includes adjustments to the review of potential high impact land use scenarios to include comparisons between a winery and a cluster development, deemed the "worst case scenario" outright uses allowed in EFU and MUA10 Zones, respectively. In response to these criteria, the applicant's burden of proof provides the following statement: Attached as Exhibit 9 is a transportation impact analysis memorandum prepared by tragic engineer, Joe Bessman, PE. Mr. Bessman made the following key findings with regard to the proposed zone change and concluded that a significant affect does not occur with the proposed rezone: • Rezoning of the 36.65-acre CO/D property from EFU-TRB to MUA could generate up to 49 additional weekday daily trips, including only five additional trips during the weekday p.m. peak hour. • The change in trips does not meet Deschutes County, ODOT, or City of Bend thresholds of significance at any nearby locations. • The site will be served with stubbed local street connections west through the Marketplace Subdivision that connect to the SE 27th Street corridor. This access configuration does not impact Deschutes Countystreets. • The nearest classified intersection of SE 27th Street/SE Reed Market Road has a very low crash rate. There are no documented safety needs within the project vicinity. Based on this review a significant affect does not occur with the proposed rezone given the minor potential impacts in transitioning from EFU to MUA zoning. Based on the traffic analysis and findings by Mr. Bessman, the application complies with the TPR. Updated findings below, submitted by Transight Consulting on June 8, 2021, are set forth in the revised traffic study: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 50 of 57 • Rezoning of the 36.65-acre CO/D property from EFU-TRB to MUA provides similar potential impacts to the existing zoning, with the potential for a trip reduction within a "worse case" trip generation scenario. • The reduction in trips does not meet Deschutes County, ODOT, or City of Bend thresholds of significance at any nearby locations. • The site will be served with stubbed local street connections west through the adjacent Marketplace Subdivision that connect to the SE 271h Street corridor. This access configuration does not impact Deschutes County streets. • The nearest classified intersection of SE 27th StreetlSE Reed Market Road has a very low crash rate. There are no documented safety needs within the project vicinity. Based on this review a significant affect does not occur with rezoning from EFU to MUA zoning. With the range of outright allowable uses identified within ORS 215.213(1) and 215.283(1) as a "property right" additional trip generation scenarios could be shown resulting in a trip reduction. Regardless of the scenario, the overall impact of the rezone is negligible on the transportation system and the rezone reflects the more appropriate use of the propertygiven its unsuitability for farming. Public comments received by the County indicate concerns with potential traffic impacts as a result of the proposed plan amendment and zone change. These comments are non- specific in nature, do not include any findings contrary to the findings set forth in the Transight Consulting, LLC analyses, and do not include any information that is inconsistent with the Transight Consulting, LLC°s reports. Public comments express a generalized concern about traffic impacts associated with additional growth if the subject property is developed. The Hearings Officer notes that additional transportation/traffic review will be required at the time of any future development application(s). The Hearings Officer finds that the proposed rezone will not significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility for the following reasons: (1) it will not change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; (2) it will not change standards implementing a functional classification system; and (3) it will not result in any of the following effects - types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility, degradation of the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan, or degradation of the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected not to meet performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. The Hearings Officer finds that, based on OAR 660-012-0600 ), the County is not required to put in place measures as provided in Section (2) of this rule. The applicant has demonstrated compliance with the TPR. These criteria are met. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 51 of 57 DIVISION 15, STATEWIDE PLANNING GOALS AND GUIDELINES OAR 660-015 Division 15 Statewide Planning Goals and Guidelines FINDING: The Statewide Planning Goals are addressed below, as set forth in the applicant's burden of proof: Goal 1, Citizen Involvement. Deschutes County will provide notice of the application to the public through mailed notice to affected property owners and by requiring the applicant to post a "proposed land use action sign" on the subject property. Notice of the public hearings held regarding this application will be placed in the Bend Bulletin. A minimum of two public hearings will be held to consider the application. Goal 2, Land Use Planning. Goals, policies, and processes related to zone change applications are included in the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan and Titles 18 and 23 of the Deschutes County Code. The outcome of the application will be based on findings of fact and conclusions of law related to the applicable provisions of those laws as required by Goal 2. Goal 3, Agricultural Lands. The applicant has shown that the subject property is not agricultural land because it is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils that are not suitable for farm use. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with Goal 3. Goal 4, Forest Lands. Goal 4 is not applicable because the subject property does not include any lands that are zoned for, or that support, forest uses. Goal 5, Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces. Deschutes County DIAL property information and Interactive Map show the subject property has 'Wetlands" that correspond with CO/D's irrigation distribution system within the property including the developed canals and ditches. According to the Comprehensive Plan (Chapters 2, Resource Management and 5, Supplemental Sections), in 1992 Deschutes County Ordinance 92-045 adopted all wetlands identified on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Maps as the Deschutes County wetland inventory. In addition, as described in the Comprehensive Plan, the NWI Map "shows an inventory of wetlands based on high -altitude aerial photos and limited field work. While the NWI can be useful for many resource management and planning purposes, its small scale, accuracy limitations, errors of omission that range up to 55 percent (existing wetlands not shown on NWI), age (1980s), and absence of property boundaries make it unsuitable for parcel -based decision making." The Comprehensive Plan has no specific protections for wetlands, protections are provided by ordinances that implement Goal 5 protections (for example, fill and removal zoning code regulations). In the case of Irrigation Districts performing work within wetlands, DCC 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 52 of 57 18.120.050(C) regarding Fill and Removal Exceptions allows fill and removal activities as a use permitted outright as stated below: C. Fill and removal activities conducted by an Irrigation District involving piping work in existing canals and ditches within wetlands are permitted outright. Because the proposed plan amendment and zone change are not development, there is no impact to any Goal 5 resource. Any potential future development of a wetland - no matter what zone the wetland is in - will be subject to review by the County's fill and removal regulations. Goal 6, Air, Water and Land Resources Quality. The approval of this application will not impact the quality of the air, water, and land resources of the County. Any future development of the property would be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect these resources. Goal 7, Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards. According to the Deschutes County DIAL property information and Interactive Map the entire Deschutes County, including the subject property, is located in a Wildfire Hazard Area. The subject property is also located in Rural Fire Protection District #2. Rezoning the property to MUA-10 does not change the Wildfire Hazard Area designation. Any future development of the property would need to demonstrate compliance with any fire protection regulations and requirements of Deschutes County. Goal 8, Recreational Needs. This goal is not applicable because no development is proposed and the property is not planned to meet the recreational needs of Deschutes County. The Bend Parks and Recreation District has an undeveloped park site, Hansen Park, located to the south of the property with plans to develop the park trailhead that would serve the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail System. The proposed rezone does not impact the recreational needs of Deschutes County as no development is proposed. Goal 9, Economy of the State. This goal does not apply to this application because the subject property is not designated as Goal 9 economic development land. In addition, the approval of this application will not adversely affect economic activities of the state or area. Goal 10, Housing. The CounVs Comprehensive Plan Goal 10 analysis anticipates that farm properties with poor soils, like the subject property, will be converted from EFU to MUA-10 or RR-10 zoning and that these lands will help meet the need for rural housing. Approval of this application, therefore, is consistent with Goal 10 as implemented by the acknowledged Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 53 of 57 Goal 11, Public Facilities and Services. The approval of this application will have no adverse impact on the provision of public facilities and services to the subject site. Pacific Power has confirmed that it has the capacity to serve the subject property and the proposal will not result in the extension of urban services to rural areas. Goal 12, Transportation. The application complies with the Transportation System Planning Rule, OAR 660-012-0060, the rule that implements Goal 12. Compliance with that rule also demonstrates compliance with Goal 12. Goal 13, Energy Conservation. The approval of this application does not impede energy conservation. The subject property is located adjacent to the city limits for the City of Bend. If the property is developed with residential dwellings in the future, providing homes in this location as opposed to more remote rural locations will conserve energy needed for residents to travel to work, shopping and other essential services provided in the City of Bend. Goal 14, Urbanization. This goal is not applicable because the applicant's proposal does not involve property within an urban growth boundary and does not involve the urbanization of rural land. The MUA-10 Zone is an acknowledged rural residential zoning district that limits the intensity and density of developments to rural levels. The compliance of this zone with Goal 14 was recently acknowledged when the County amended its comprehensive plan. The plan recognizes the fact that the MUA-10 and RR zones are the zones that will be applied to lands designated Rural Residential Exception Areas. Goals 15 through 19. These goals do not apply to land in Central Oregon. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 1 (Citizen Involvement) has been established with the public notice requirements required by the County for these applications (mailed notice, posted notice and two public hearings). Similarly, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 2 (Land Use Planning) based on the applications' consistency with goals, policies and processes related to zone change applications as set forth in the Comprehensive Plan and Titles 18 and 23 of the Deschutes County Code. Based on the findings above, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 3 (Agricultural Lands) has been demonstrated because the subject property is not Agricultural Land. The property is not comprised of Forest Lands; Goal 4 is inapplicable. With respect to Goal 5 (Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces), the Hearings Officer finds that the property does not include any scenic and historic areas. Moreover, while the property is currently open and undeveloped, the County Goal 5 inventory does not include the subject property as an "open space" area protected by Goal 5. Members of the public expressed concern regarding potential impact on wildlife. However, the Hearings Officer notes that the property does not include a wildlife overlay (WA) 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 54 of 57 designation and, more importantly, no development is proposed at this time. Rezoning the subject property will not, in and of itself, impact wildlife on the subject property. The property does include areas mapped as wetlands by the NWI, which constitute Goal 5 natural resources. Fill and removal activities conducted by an irrigation district are allowed outright under DCC 18.120.050(C). The Hearings Officer again notes that no specific development activities, including fill and removal, is proposed at this time. Because the proposed plan amendment and zone change do not constitute development, there is no impact to any Goal 5 resource. The Hearings Officer finds that future development activities will be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect delineated wetlands. For these reasons, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 5. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 6 (Air, Water and Land Resources Quality) because there is no demonstrable impact of approval of the application to rezone the subject property from EFU to MUA-10. Future development activities will be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect these resources. With respect to Goal 7 (Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards), the Hearings Officer finds consistency with this Goal based on the fact that rezoning the property to MUA-10 does not change the Wildfire Hazard Area designation that is applicable to the entirety of Deschutes County. The subject property is within the Rural Fire Protection District #2. Any application(s) for future development activities will be required to demonstrate compliance with fire protection regulations. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 8 (Recreational Needs) given the fact that no development is currently proposed and that rezoning, in and of itself, will not impact recreational needs of Deschutes County. Members of the public testified regarding concerns of loss of the currently vacant property as open space and for recreational uses. The Hearings Officer notes that the record includes evidence regarding an undeveloped Bend Park and Recreation District park site, Hansen Park, located to the south of the property. There are plans to develop a park trailhead that would serve the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail System. The Hearings Officer finds that the proposed rezone does not impact these recreational amenity plans. The Hearings Officer finds Goal 9 (Economy of the State) is inapplicable because the subject property is not designated as Goal 9 economic development land. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 10 (Housing) because the Comprehensive Plan Goal 10 chapter anticipates that farm properties with poor soils will be converted from EFU to MUA-10 or RR-10 zoning, making such properties available to meet the need for rural housing. Although no development of the subject property is proposed at this time, rezoning the subject property from EFU to MUA-10 will enable consideration of the property for potential rural housing development in the future. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 55 of 57 The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 11 (Public Facilities and Services). The record establishes that Pacific Power has capacity to serve the subject property and the proposal will not result in the extension of urban services to rural areas. Based on the findings above regarding the Transportation System Planning Rule, OAR 660- 012-0060, the Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 12 (Transportation). The Hearings Officerfinds the applications are consistentwith Goal 13 (Energy Conservation) because there is no evidence approval of the applications will impede energy conservation. Rather, if the property is developed with residential dwellings in the future, energy conservation will be increased - not impeded - as residents will not be required to travel as far to work, shopping and other essential services provided in the City of Bend. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 14 (Urbanization). The subject property is not within an urban growth boundary and does not involve urbanization of rural land because the MUA-10 zone does not include urban uses as permitted outright or conditionally. The MUA-10 zone is an acknowledged rural residential zoning district that limits the intensity and density of developments to rural levels. The state acknowledged compliance of the MUA-10 zone with Goal 14 when the County amended its comprehensive plan. The Hearings Officer finds that Goals 15-19 do not apply to land in Central Oregon. For all the foregoing reasons, the Hearings Officer finds compliance with the applicable Statewide Planning Goals has been demonstrated. IV. DECISION & RECOMMENDATION Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant has met the burden of proof necessary to justify the request for a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendmentto re -designate the subject propertyfrom Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a corresponding request for a Zone Map Amendment (Zone Change) to reassign the zoning of the subject property from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The Deschutes County Board of Commissioners is the final local review body for the applications before the County. DCC 18.126.030. The Hearings Officer recommends approval of the applications based on this Decision of the Deschutes County Hearings Officer. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 56 of 57 4 Stephanie Marshall, Deschutes County Hearings Officer Dated this _12th_ day of October, 2021 Mailed this 13th day of October, 2021 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 57 of 57 owner Central Oregon Irrigation District Tia M.

It was re -assigned to Mr. Rawlings prior to the public hearing. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 1 of 57 I. STANDARDS AND APPLICABLE CRITERIA Title 18 of the Deschutes County Code, the County Zoning Ordinance: Chapter 18.04, Title, Purpose, and Definitions Chapter 18.16, Exclusive Farm Use Zones (EFU) Chapter 18.32, Multiple Use Agricultural Zone (MUA10) Chapter 18.136, Amendments Title 22, Deschutes County Development Procedures Ordinance Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan Chapter 2, Resource Management Chapter 3, Rural Growth Management Appendix C, Transportation System Plan Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR), Chapter 660 Division 6, Forest Lands Division 12, Transportation Planning Division 15, Statewide Planning Goals and Guidelines Division 33, Agricultural Land Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 215.211, Agricultural Land, Detailed Soils Assessment 11. FINDINGS OF FACT A. LOCATION: The subject property has a situs address of 61781 Ward Road, Bend, and is further identified as Tax Lot 1000 on Assessor's Map 18-12-02.2 B. LOT OF RECORD: Tax Lot 1000 is 36.65 acres in size and has not previously been verified as a legal lot of record. Per DCC 22.04.040 Verifying Lots of Record, lot of record verification is required for certain permits: B. Permits requiring verification 1. Unless an exception applies pursuant to subsection (B)(2) below, Z Several commentators expressed concern regarding the address of the subject property, particularly related to future access if and when the property is developed in the future. Staff stated at the public hearing that an address coordinator will be assigned with respect to future development permit application(s) and the address(es) will be vetted through emergency services. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 2 of 57 verifying a lot parcel pursuant to subsection (C) shall be required to the issuance of the following permits: a. Any land use permit for a unit of land in the Exclusive Farm Use Zones (DCC Chapter 1&16), Forest Use Zone - F1 (DCC Chapter 1&36), or Forest Use Zone - F2 (DCC Chapter 1&40), b. Any permit for a lot or parcel that includes wetlands as show on the Statewide Wetlands Inventory; c. Any permit for a lot or parcel subject to wildlife habitat special assessment; d. In all zones, a land use permit relocating property lines that reduces in size a lot or parcel' e. In all zones, a land use, structural, or non -emergency on -site sewage disposal system permit if the lot or parcel is smaller than the minimum area required in the applicable zone, In the Powell/Ramsey (PA-14-2, ZC-14-2) decision, the Hearings Officer held to a prior Zone Change Decision (Belveron ZC-08-04) that a property's lot of record status was not required to be verified as part of a plan amendment and zone change application. Rather, the applicant will be required to receive lot of record verification prior to any development on the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds this criterion does not apply. C. ZONING AND PLAN DESIGNATION: The subject property is zoned Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) and is designated Agricultural (AG) in the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan. The property does not have any Goal 5 resource designations. D. PROPOSAL: The applicant requests approval of a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment to change the designation of the subject property from an Agricultural (AG) designation to a Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) designation. The applicant also requests approval of a corresponding Zoning Map Amendment to change the zoning of the subject property from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The applicant asks that Deschutes County change the zoning and the plan designation because the subject property does not qualify as "agricultural land" under Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) or Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) definitions. The applicant states that no exception to Statewide Planning Goal 3, Agricultural Land, is required because the subject property is not agricultural land. The application does not include a development proposal. The applicant notes that it could subdivide the property under Title 17 or through the County's cluster subdivision rules in Title 18, or could hold the property for future urbanization consistent with the development pattern of the surrounding lands. The applicant's attorney stated at the public hearing that the proposed re -designation and rezoning would allow the property to be considered in the next UGB expansion by the City of Bend. She stated there were no immediate plans to develop the property in the near future. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 3 of 57 Submitted with the application is an Order 1 Soil Survey of the subject property, titled "Soil Assessment for 37.7-Acre Parcel Lot 1000, Bend, Oregon" (hereafter referred to as the "soil study') prepared by soil scientist Andy Gallagher, CPSSc/SC 03114 of Red Hill Soils. The applicant also submitted a traffic analysis prepared by Transight Consulting, LLC titled "61781 Ward Road Rezone" hereby referred to as "traffic study." Additionally, the applicant submitted an application form, a burden of proof statement, and other supplemental materials, all of which are included in the record for the subject applications. E. SITE DESCRIPTION: The subject property is approximately 36.65 acres in size and is adjacent to both Bend's city limits and Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) to the west. The property is relatively level with mild undulating topography and collapsed lava tube features. Vegetation consists of juniper, sage brush, and grasses. A portion of the site was historically mined for dirt and fill for maintenance purposes of Central Oregon Irrigation District's (COID) delivery systems. The site is undeveloped except for COID's main canal located along the southern border and offshoot irrigation ditches in the southwestern and southeastern portions of the subject property. Access to the site is provided by stubbed local street connections including Darnel Avenue and Daylily Avenue, located in residential subdivisions in the City of Bend to the west. The subject property does not have water rights, and has not been farmed or used in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) map shown on the County's GIS mapping program identifies two soil complex units on the property: 36A, Deskamp loamy sand and 58C, Gosney-Rock outcrop-Deskamp complex. The predominant soil complex on the subject property is 58C, which is not a high - value soil as defined by DCC 18.04; 36A is not considered a high -value soil when irrigated. The subject property has no irrigation, no historical use of being farmed, and is overgrown with western juniper, sagebrush, rabbit brush and bunch grasses. COID has intermittedly used the property over the years to mine for dirt that was used for maintenance and repairs of the District's delivery systems. As discussed in detail below in the Soils section, an Agricultural Soils Capability Assessment (Order 1 soil survey) was conducted on the property by Certified Professional Soil Scientist Andy Gallagher which determined that the property is not agricultural land; Class 3 irrigated and Class 6 non -irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes and rocky, shallow soils, creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. There is a private easement along the COID canal. In addition, as noted in the Bend Park and Recreation District's public comment, BMPRD has a planned trail, the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail, identified in its comprehensive plan that runs through the subject property. F. SOILS: According to Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) maps of the area, 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 4 of 57 the subject property contains two different soil types as described below. The subject property contains 58C - Gosney-Rock Outcrop-Deskamp complex and 36A- Deskamp loamy sand. The applicant submitted a soil study report (applicant's Exhibit 5, Soil Assessment for 37.7- Acre Parcel Lot 1000, Bend, Oregon, dated December 2, 2020), which was prepared by a qualified soils professional approved by the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD), which can be used by property owners to determine the extent of agricultural land as defined in Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) 660-033 Agricultural Land, The certified soils scientist and soil classifier conducted field work which included 41 test pits and observations of surface rock outcrops and determined the subject property is comprised of soils that do not qualify as Agricultural Lando. The purpose of this soil study was to inventory and assess the soils on the subject property5 and to provide more detailed data on soil classifications and ratings than is contained in the NRCS soils maps. The NRCS soil map units identified on the property are described below. 36A Deskamp loamy sand, 0 to 3 percent slopes: This soil complex is composed of 85 percent Deskamp soil and similar inclusions, and 15 percent contrasting inclusions. The Deskamp soils are somewhat excessively drained with a rapid over moderate permeability, and about 5 inches of available water capacity. Major uses of this soil type are irrigated cropland and livestock grazing. The agricultural capability rating for 36A soils are 3S when irrigated, and 6S when not irrigated. This soil is high -value when irrigated. Approximately 33.7 percent of the subject parcel is made up of this soil type. 58C Gosney-Rock Outcrop-Deskamp complex, 0 to 15 percent slopes: This soil type is comprised of 50 percent Gosney soil and similar inclusions, 25 percent rock outcrop, 20 percent Deskamp soil and similar inclusions, and 5 percent contrasting inclusions. Gosney soils are somewhat excessively drained with rapid permeability. The available water capacity is about 1 inch. Deskamp soils are somewhat excessively drained with rapid permeability. Available water capacity is about 3 inches. The major use for this soil type is livestock grazing. The Gosney soils have ratings of 7e when unirrigated, and 7e when irrigated. The rock outcrop has a rating of 8, with or without irrigation. The Deskamp soils have ratings of 6e when unirrigated, and 4e when irrigated. Approximately 66.3 percent of the subject parcel is made up of this soil type.. 58C is not a high value soil as defined by DCC 18.04 ("High Value Farmland"). 36A is considered a high value soil when irrigated. There is no irrigation on the property. 3 As defined in OAR 660-033-0020, 660-033-0030 'As defined in OAR 660-033-0020, 660-033-0030. 5 The canals were not rated for capability class, but for purposes of the assessment were included with the acreage that is not suited to agricultural production. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 5 of 57 Through numerous soil test pits and observations on the property Soil Scientist Andy Gallagher remapped the soils using a high intensity Order 1 soil survey and concluded that the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils (nearly 64%) and is not agricultural land. The Class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. An excerpt of Mr. Gallagher's summary and conclusions of his findings follows: In the revised Order-1 soil mapping, the Deskamp (Class 3 irrigated and 6 nonirrigated) are mapped as a consociation and only make up 29 percent of the parcel. The Gosney soils along with very shallow soils and rock outcrops are mapped as the Gosney-Rock Outcrop Complex because all three components of the complex are capability Class 7 or 8. This complex makes up 63.7 percent of the parcel. The irrigation canals make up 7.4 percent of the area. Based upon the findings of this Order-1 soil survey, the subject parcel is predominantly Class 7 and 8 soils and therefore is not "agricultural land" within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(A). The soil mapping and on -site studies also show the subject property is not agricultural land within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020(1)(b) as it is not adjacent to or intermingled with land in capability classes 1-6 within a farm unit. The class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils on the subject property have not been farmed or utilized in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. These soil units exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural use either alone or in conjunction with other lands. No rebuttal evidence was presented to refute the applicant's evidence regarding soils. The applicant's soils study has been verified by DLCD. G. SURROUNDING LAND USES: The subject property is surrounded by urban development to the west within the Bend city limits; to the east and south are County exception lands zoned MUA10 developed with homes and small -acreage irrigation for pasture and hobby farm uses; and irrigated farmland zoned EFUTRB to the north and northeast. The adjacent properties are outlined below in further detail: North: North and northeast of the subject property is an area of EFU-zoned property. The adjacent property to the north, Tax Lot 1001 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 12.45-acre EFU- zoned property that is partially irrigated and developed with a nonfarm dwelling (approved under County file CU-01-75). Northeast is Tax Lot 201 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02), a 53.30- acre farm parcel that is irrigated, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a single- family dwelling and accessory structures. East. East of the subject property are two parcels zoned MUA10. Tax Lot 1102 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 5.55-acre parcel developed with a single-family dwelling, accessory 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 6 of 57 structures, and is partially irrigated. Tax Lot 1001 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) is a 2.5-acre parcel developed with a single-family dwelling, accessory structures, and is partially irrigated. West. West of the subject property are residential subdivisions located in the City of Bend and developed to urban standards. These include Rosengarth Estates and Gardenside PUD in the RS Zone. Northwest is a 2-acre parcel zoned RL and developed with a residence. South: The abutting parcel southeast of COID's main canal is a 3.34-acre lot zoned EFUTRB and developed with a single-family dwelling and is partially irrigated. Southwest is Hansen Park (Tax Lot 1404 of Assessor's Map 18-12-02), a 5-acre undeveloped park zoned MUA10 and owned by Bend Metro Parks and Recreation District. East of Hansen Park is a 5-acre parcel zoned MUA10 and developed with a residence (Tax Lot 1407 of Assessor's Map 18-12- 02). H. PUBLIC AGENCY COMMENTS: The Planning Division mailed notice of the applications on June 11, 2021 to several public agencies and received the following comments: Deschutes County Senior Transportation Planner, Peter Russell I have reviewed the Transight April 13, 2021, traffic study to change the comp plan designation from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) and the zoning from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10) for 36.65 acres at 61781 Ward Rd, aka 18-12-02, TL 1000. Staff finds the study needs to be modified to comply with the Transportation Planning Rule and Deschutes County's accepted practices to analyze plan amendments and zone changes. For "reasonable worst -case scenario" the County compares and contrasts the highest trip generator permitted outright in both the current zone and the requested zone. DCC 18.16.020 lists those uses permitted outright in EFU. DCC 18.16.025 lists other outright permitted uses that meet applicable criteria in either DCC 18.16.038, 18.16.042, and review under DCC 18.124. The TIA cites to marijuana production facility, which the County has analyzed under the Warehouse category of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. However, the County has opted out of the state's marijuana processing program and thus this use and its analog of Warehouse should not be used. Instead, staff would utilize Winery (DCC 18.16.025(F)) as a reasonable worst case scenario. DCC 18.32.020 lists outright permitted uses for MUA-10. The highest trip generator is a cluster development of single-family homes within one -mile of a UGB, per DCC 18.32.040(A), as the traffic study correctly notes. The study needs to be redone to show the difference between winery and a cluster development to determine if there is a significant effect and any difference in the number of p.m. peak hour trips. This would also require the volumes for the trip distribution figures to be redone as well. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 7 of 57 Upon receipt of the County Senior Transportation Planner's initial comment, above, the applicant submitted a revised traffic study, dated June 8, 2021. No further comments were offered by the County's Senior Transportation Planner. Bend Park and Recreation District, Henry Stroud, AICP, Planner The Bend Park and Recreation District has a planned trail, the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail, identified in our comprehensive plan that runs through the subject property. While we understand that this application is just for a zoning change, the District would like to work with the applicant to acquire a trail easement for the COHCT prior to any future development of the property. The following agencies did not respond to the notice: Deschutes County Assessor, Bend Fire Department, City of Bend Planning Department, City of Bend Public Works Department, ODOT Region 4, and City of Bend Growth Management Department. I. PUBLIC COMMENTS: The Planning Division mailed notice of the conditional use application to all property owners within 750 feet of the subject property on June 11, 2021. The applicant also complied with the posted notice requirements of Section 22.24.030(B) of Title 22. The applicant submitted a Land Use Action Sign Affidavit indicating the applicant posted notice of the land use action on June 25, 2021. Public comments were received from neighboring property owners. Public comments are summarized as follows: The first comment was received from Jeff Sundberg, a resident and owner of property located at 61710 Gibson Drive, Bend, OR 97702 on June 15, 2021: Hi Brandon, I received a letter from Deschutes County regarding COID applying for new permits. I live at 61710 Gibson Drive, Bend, Or, 97702. 1 live next to the property in question, 61781 Ward Road. It looks like COID is requesting to go from agricultural and farm use zoning to rural residential exception area and multiple use agricultural zoning. Does this mean they want to put in a housing development? I was wondering if this response by email will suffice if I want to be notified of public hearings related to this application or if I still have to write a letter requesting to be notified of any decision or public hearing. Does any of this change my easement with COID or should 1 contact them directly? Thanks and let me know anything you can about this land change please. Staff responded to Mr. Sundberg's email on June 16, 2021 as follows: 247-21 -000400- PA1401 -ZC Page 8 of 57 Hi jell, Thanks for reaching out. As you noted, this is an application for a Comprehensive Plan/Zoning change so / am unaware of what CO/D intends to do with the property in the future. If they were to take the residential route, a minimum subdivision lot size of 10 acres still applies to the property. Because you received the Notice of Application, you are also on the list to receive the Notice of Public Hearing, which is tentatively set for july 27rn With regards to your easement agreement, I am not inclined to think this will change anything but contacting CO/D directly is a good idea. Let me know if you have any other questions. Take care, Brandon The second comment was received from Kecia Weaver, a resident of 21435 Modoc Lane, Bend, OR 97702 on June 18, 2021: "My name is Kecia Weaver l live at 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702 with my spouse who is listed property owner, Patrick McCoy. On 6117121 l read the notice of application for the above listed property. l would like to formally dispute the requested zoning changes. I have several concerns, to include the following: 1) Irrigation/Water Rights - As a small farm operator with seasonal livestock / am concerned that the proposed changes may further draw from my water access which has been limited and may be further limited due to drought conditions. More users in the proposed Multiple Use Agriculture may further draw down water allocations. 2) Wildlife Habitat - Having lived here for over 6 years. I know the proposed area to be home to deer, rabbits, birds and other wildlife which will be disturbed. 3) Extensive residential development in the immediate area- Over the past few months, extensive development has been proposed both to the north and south of our neighborhood specifically several hundred acres south of Stevens Road and north of Bear Creek Road adjacent to Ward Road. 4) Traffic concerns - increased traffic will occur in the area with other proposed developments. l am concerned the points of entrance and egress to this proposed area will add to the impact to our neighborhood as well. 5) Overall rapid growth concerns for Deschutes County- As observed by pitfalls of the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 9 of 57 rapid growth in the City of Bend over the past decade, l would encourage Deschutes County to adhere to a slower growth model. 6) Decrease in property value- This proposed change will drastically impact the view to the west of my property when it is developed. With respect to the natural beauty and appeal of this County we have chosen to call home and as a taxpayer and voter, I implore the Deschutes County planning department to deny this application at this time. I wish to be notified of all public hearings related to this application and any decision. My address is 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702." The third comment was received from Patrick McCoy, a neighboring property owner and resident of 21435 Modoc Lane, Bend, OR 97702 on June 18, 2021: "My name is Patrick McCoy a home and landowner at 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702. On 6117121 / received the notice of application for the above listed property. With little time to research to this proposal, based on the information / have obtained; I would like to formally dispute the requested zoning changes. My concerns are numerous and l will highlight the following. 1) Irrigation/Water Rights - As a small farm operator with seasonal livestock / am concerned that the proposed changes may further draw from my water access which has been limited and may be further limited due to drought conditions. More users in the proposed Multiple Use Agriculture may further draw down water allocations. 2) Wildlife Habitat - Having lived here for over 6 years. I know the proposed area to be home to deer, rabbits, birds and other wildlife which will be disturbed. 3) Extensive residential development in the immediate area- Over the past few months, extensive development has been proposed both to the north and south of our neighborhood specifically several hundred acres south of Stevens Road and north of Bear Creek Road adjacent to Ward Road. 4) Traffic concerns - increased traffic will occur in the area with other proposed developments. I am concerned the points of entrance and egress to this proposed area will add to the impact to our neighborhood as well. 5) Overall rapid growth concerns for Deschutes County- As observed by pitfalls of the rapid growth in the City of Bend over the past decade, I would encourage Deschutes County to adhere to a slower growth model. 6) Decrease in property value- This proposed change will drastically impact the view to the west of my property when it is developed. With respect to the natural beauty and appeal of this County we have chosen to call home and as a taxpayer and voter, l implore the Deschutes County planning department to deny this application at this time. I wish to be notified of all public hearings related to this application and any decision. My address is 21435 Modoc Lane Bend, OR 97702." 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 10 of 57 The fourth public comment was received from Kyle Weaver on June 18, 2021: "1 am writing to express by objection to the proposed changes east of 27t` in the pursuit of yet another neighborhood development. The East side of Bend is the current hotspot for housing expansion but some caution must be taken and not simply rubber stamping these applications through and knocking down yet more trees and eliminating farm lands and mountain views. Neighborhoods are popping up in all directions all over town and the construction industryfrenzy is full throttle with little interest in these types of nature/aesthetic concerns. I don't begrudge people making some money and Bend is certainly a desirable place to live, but things need to be planned out in a more thoughtful and deliberate fashion. There is nothing wrong with taking a slower and more measured approach as we all consider Bend's growth in the comingyears. I have lived in Bend for just over 20 years and have family and friends in the proposed development area and it would drastically reduce their enjoyment of their property. I urge you to decline this request on behalf of many other community members who feel the same way." The fifth public comment was received from Treva Weaver on June 18, 2021: "Re: 1812020001000 Central Or. Irrigation District I am opposed to the proposed land use change by the above referenced owner..... The loss of open space in Central Oregon continues as the growth proponents seem mainly interested in jumping on the bandwagon and making as much profit as possible. The East side of Bend, where I have lived the past 21 years, has hundreds, if not thousands of housing sites already started or proposed. Until all this land is developed and houses sold, there is no need to venture east of 271h where this property is located ..... My great grandfather came to Oregon at age 9 in 1846 and our family has very deep roots in this state. I spend a large amount of time at my daughter's home which is directly east of the proposed development We enjoy riding our horses in her arena and also enjoy family gatherings in her backyard. The view would be drastically changed if this land is developed. What is wrong with leaving some land in its natural state? It will be many many years before additional housing is needed in this area. Please decline this request change and leave some land in its more natural state." The sixth public comment was received from John Schaeffer, a neighboring property owner at 61677 Thunder Road, Bend, OR 97702 on June 19, 2021: "I am writing on behalf of myself and several neighbors in the Stevens Road - Thunder Road neighborhood. We are opposed to COID's proposed changes to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning for taxlot 1812020001000. We realize this is not a request for development but know that it will lead to development in the next few years, that it is the first step in making the property more marketable, should it be brought into the UGB during the next update. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 11 of 57 Development has been increasing in this area, especially with the inclusion of the Stevens Road tract in the current UGB, and its subsequent sale by the state. We feel it is important to leave some natural open areas for people and animals near the city limits. This is especially critical now that the Stevens Road tract is being developed, along with all the other development in this area. A few years ago, it was possible to take our dogs walking in the Stevens Road tract and meet few people. The use in this area has increased remarkably over the last several years, consistent with Bend's growth. The COID parcel is isolated and not readily accessible by cars, with varied topography, including a small canyon. It has significant native vegetation and, when I was there a couple of days ago, there were many birds, much more than in the nearby areas where there are houses and the vegetation has been cleared. Right now, the average size of the parcels between the city limits to the west and Ward Road to the east, and between Stevens Road to the south and to approximately where Skyline View Drive would be if extended into the area on the north, is 8 acres. If you consider only the MUA zoned parcels, the average size is 4.8 acres. If the COID property was developed to that level, this would mean 7- 8 houses in the area. I do not know what would be allowed under the Rural Residential Exception area but suspect it would probably be even denser housing. As Bend continues to grow at what may be an unsustainable pace the value of open space increases. We urge you to consider open space as a relevant and beneficial resource when you weigh the issues inherent in this kind of a zoning change. Sincerely, John Schaeffer and Patti Bailey James and Janet Lake Julie Naslund, Michael, and Miles Nevill Mike Quick Jill Harrell and Mike King" The seventh public comment was received from Cathy DeCourcey, a property owner and resident of 61718 Rigel Way, Bend, OR 97702 on June 21, 2021: "1 am responding to a letter / received regarding COID's application to rezone the property behind me. File # 247-21-0000400-PA, 401-ZC. 36.65 Acres. My understanding is they want to change the zoning from Agriculture and Exclusive Farm Use Zone to Rural Residential Exception Area and Multiple Use Agricultural. I've read the Application prepared by Tia M. Lewis. I have 3 concerns. 1. The water supply says wells are to be drilled for household use. There are 2 very old (55yrs) Well Reports included in her submission. I find this very odd that 7 new homes will be drilling and using well water for approximately 5 acre mini ranches. Surely the water table has lowered over time? The depth of one shows 619 feet. One report seems to be missing 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 12 of 57 the gallons per minute amount. Would you explain where the household and irrigation water will be coming from for these 7 lots? 2. At what point can the MUA-10 Zoning be changed to create a subdivision of smaller sized lots? 3. Will there be more than 7 lots created? The stubbed access roads listed are already narrow and congested with parked cars and traffic coming and going to 27th which has no turn lanes onto or off of Darne/. Thank you for your time and response." The eighth public comment was received from Jennifer Neil, a property owner and resident of 61723 Rigel Way, Bend, OR 97702 on June 21, 2021: "My name is Jennifer Neil, and / am Bend homeowner concerned about the above -mentioned proposed land use. The proposed land use will change what is a small, open space next to the Central Oregon canal from farm use to more residential use. I'm saddened to not only lose the space / walk on twice a day, but to see it turned into more overpriced homes that the city and the community is not able to support. The area of SE Bend where this property is located has already out -grown all of the infrastructure to support more housing. It has become extremely difficult to access my home because of the traffic and congestion along 27th street. This congestion will only increase with the addition of the new High School. Finally, I'm also very concerned that 4 of my neighbors, who are also homeowners and have properties directly next to this proposed land use change, did not receive any notice of this land use. I notified them! I hope that the city planners will consider the impact more houses will have in this area, and improve the infrastructure first that is already necessary before destroying more open space." The ninth public comment was received from Brent N. Wilkins, an owner and resident of property at 61764 SE Camellia Street, Bend, OR 97702, on June 21, 2021: "I am a resident of the Rosengarth Subdivision. I am submitting these written comments relating to the proposed zoning changes by the Central Oregon Irrigation District ("CO/D'7 for the real property located at 61781 Ward Road, Bend, OR 97702 ("Property'9. For the reasons noted below, including due to the level of development in East Bend in close proximity to the Property, the Property's rural nature that serves as a place of recreation, and the high level of traffic and lack of a left-hand turn lane from the major arterial (27th Street) that will likely service the Property if/once developed, I ask that the Deschutes County Planning Division ("Planning Division'9 not approve CO/D's application. i request to be notified of any decision or public hearing related to this application, and this notice may be sent to: Brent N. Wilkins 61764 SE Camellia Street Bend, OR 97702 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 13 of 57 As noted on page 3 of COID's Burden of Proof Statement, COID will have the ability to attempt to develop and subdivide the Property into a subdivision if the permit is granted. This would potentially occur through Title 17 or Title 18 of Deschutes County's rules. This permit should not be granted as further development in the proximity of the Property will not serve the County or community. A. Development & Traffic Impacts The Property at issue is surrounded by areas that have been recently developed. This includes the DR Horton subdivision off of Pettigrew Drive, the Hayden Homes Subdivision off of Pettigrew Drive, as well as the Rosengarth Subdivision. 27rh Street has not been able to keep up resulting increased traffic flow as a result of the development to date. Excluding this Property, there is now significant further development occurring in this immediate area that 27rh Street will service. The development at this time includes a new commercial lot being developed at 27rh Street and Reed Market that will consist of multiple businesses, a new subdivision between Reed Market and Starlight Drive on the east side of 27rh Street, and significant development off of 271 Street on Stevens Road. The Property will also heavily utilize 27rh Street through the likely extension of Darnel Avenue and/or DaylilyAvenue. The collective effect of all of this development is that the rural nature of East Bend is being lost and 27rh Street is becoming unsafe. 21h Street at this time does not adequately handle the levels of traffic that occur each morning around 8:00 am, each afternoon around 5:00 pm as well as when school lets out, and during the weekends. I have routinely sat in my car for more than two minutes trying to turn left onto 27rh Street. I have also waited more than a minute to even to try to turn right onto 27rh Street. A photograph showing the line of traffic on 27rh Street is enclosed. (See Ex. 1). Also, there is no left turn lane when turning left from 27rh Street onto Darnel Avenue from 27rh. This has resulted in unsafe conditions, including vehicles passing the turning vehicle on the right where there is no developed shoulder or lane. There are tracks on the ground where this happens, and it is not safe for those vehicles, the turning vehicle, or oncoming traffic. Eastside Gardens is also located at 27rh Street and Darnel Avenue. Vehicles pull in and out of that parking lot at that intersection and from the parking lot itself. This cause an irregular, unsafe traffic flow that will only be exacerbated by further use. Moreover, due to Darnel Avenue serving as a primary access point for homes throughout the existing neighborhoods and Gardenside Park, there is already a high level of traffic and vehicles often driving fast. There is also significant on street parking that restricts views for drivers and pedestrians. This includes large 'sprinter' vans, large trucks, and sometimes trailers. (See Ex. 2). There are numerous young families in the neighborhoods, including along Camellia Street, Darnel Avenue and Gardenside Park. These families have children that run, play, skateboard, ride scooters, and bike throughout the neighborhood, including on the streets. The existing neighborhood traffic levels poses a danger to children. The proposed permit will likely result in increased traffic within the neighborhood and pose additional risk to these young families and 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 14 of 57 children. Any consideration of the Permit, and any possible approval, must address this dynamic. Finally, with the recent approval of the Southeast Area Plan for the 'Elbow; the level of traffic in East Bend and 27 Street will only increase. This will also result in the displacement of birds and other wildlife, which is further covered below, and will need a place to go. B. Preservation The Property at issue is an area that is highly utilized for recreation and embodies Central Oregon high desert landscape. In the winters, the area can serve as a place for cross-country skiing. (See Ex. 3). People regularly ride bikes, run, and go for walks. The aerial photo that was enclosed with the Notice of Application also shows the walking path through the middle of the Property. The wildlife that calls this place home includes ducks, jackrabbits, geese, and numerous other birds. There is also a rimrock canyon on the Property that is quite unique and should be preserved (See Ex. 4). The Property also has views of the Cascades, Powell Butte, and Newberry Caldera (See Ex. 5). It is also quite peaceful and has a gentle, rolling landscape full of trees, grasses, and sagebrush. (See Ex. 6). During the mornings and evenings one can go for walks and hear the songs of birds and enjoy an escape from the busy work day and pace of life. In other words, changing the Property's zoning classification and leading to the possibility (if not the eventual or imminent likelihood) of development that will further change the rural nature of Bend is not in the public's interest for rezoning standards or otherwise. C. Conclusion The existing development and use of 27 Street, the development already approved and under construction, and the future development of Stevens Road and the 'Elbow' makes changing the Property's zoning classification to not be in the public interest. There simply is not adequate infrastructure to support all of these additions in a safe manner. Until the access to the neighborhoods from 271 Street is improved, no further development or changes of zoning classifications should occur. Approving the permit will also likely result in the irreparable loss of rural landscape and habitat once the Property is developed, including possibly without any restrictions or preservation criteria. In sum, the proposed permit application should be denied, or at least not approved in its current form. At a minimum, a hearing should be set for in person comments and for further deliberation to occur." The public comment from Mr. Wilkins includes 10 photographs depicting the various conditions outlined in his written comment. These photographs and the full written comment are included in public record for the subject application. The tenth public comment was received from Crystal Garner on June 22, 2021: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 15 of 57 "I would like to request a hearing for the proposed land development for 61781 Ward Rd, Bend, OR 97702. We live about 4 houses down from this property, it is a great and safe place for our family and so many others in the neighborhood to take walks, ride bikes, and walk dogs. The thought of this land being developed on and losing those opportunities, as well as possibly compromising the safety of our children in our neighborhood bring a heavy heart to so many of us. Please consider a hearing to recant this decision." The eleventh public comment was received from William Kepper on June 29, 2021: "Sorryfor the late response to the changes associated with Map and Taxiot. 1812020001000. The notification was not received timely. The notification is vague to exactly what changes will occur. If the changes have anything to do with the cultivation of marijuana or hemp we and our neighbors are against it. it would destroy ours and our neighbors quality of life. There are numerous small children and teenagers in the neighborhoods who should not be subjected to these types of grow farms. Also there is a child day care facility close by off 27th Street. 1 hope I'm wrong about the "Rural Residential Exception Area and Multiple Use Agricultural, respectively" statement. Thanks for listening to my concerns. I'd appreciate additional information on exactly what Multiple Use Agricultural Zone (MUA10) means." The twelfth public comment was received from David Morrison on August 30, 2021: Tarik, I may wish to participate in this hearing if I have questions or concerns not addressed by others. I plan to participate via Zoom. My wife is dealing with serious health issues and may require attention at any time which might cause me to miss all or some. So, i would like to go on record as 10096 against re -zoning said CO/D property at this time. I feel that with the already in the works developments south of Stevens Rd and north of Bear Creek Rd, that the road system is already severely inadequate. Also, with the drought conditions and worsening water supplies in not just Bend but all of Deschutes and surrounding counties, I would like to see this request 'tabled'. to be revisited in no fewer than 5 years. The county needs to greatly improve roads and water supply issues before allowing more and more building and deteriorating areas that will make this area more desirable to live in. I enjoy watching all of the natural wildlife that lives in this space, they will disappear with development, as will our natural view that was the biggest reason for us purchasing our property which is immediately adjacent to said property. I am also concerned about the stated address of said property, Ward Rd is no where near the property. If it should be re -zoned, where exactly will it be accessed? I fear the continued rapid growth will quickly and severely deteriorate the quality of life for all of Bend. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 16 of 57 Thank you for considering my our [sic] concerns, David & Nancy Morrison J. LAND USE HISTORY: There is no history of prior land use permits having been granted for the subject property. K. UTILITY SERVICES: The subject property is served by Pacific Power and water will be provided by a well (see Exhibit 7 for will serve letter and well logs). L. PUBLIC SERVICES: The subject property is in the Deschutes County Rural Fire Protection District #2 (Exhibit 6).

CONCLUSIONS OF LAW Title 18 of the Deschutes County Code, County Zoning Chapter 18.136, Amendments Section 18.136.010, Amendments DCC Title 18 may be amended as set forth in DCC 18.136. The procedures for text or legislative map changes shall be as set forth in DCC 22.12. A request by a property owner for a quasi-judicial map amendment shall be accomplished by filing an application on forms provided by the Planning Department and shall be subject to applicable procedures of DCC Title 22. FINDING: The applicant, also the property owner, has requested a quasi-judicial plan amendment and filed the applications for a plan amendment and zone change. The applicant filed the required Planning Division's land use application forms for the proposal. The application is reviewed utilizing the applicable procedures contained in Title 22 of the Deschutes County Code. The Hearings Officer finds these criteria are met. Section 18.136.020, Rezoning Standards The applicant for a quasi-judicial rezoning must establish that the public interest is best served by rezoning the property. Factors to be demonstrated by the applicant are. A. That the change conforms with the Comprehensive Plan, and the change is consistent with the plan's introductory statement and goals. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in its submitted burden of proof statement: Per prior Hearings Officers decisions [Powell/Ramsey (file no. PA-14-2 / ZC-14-2) and Landholdings (file no. 247-16-000317-ZC, 318-PA)] for plan amendments and zone changes on EFU-zoned property, this paragraph establishes two requirements. (1) that the zone change conforms to the Comprehensive Plan and (2) that the change is consistent with the plan's introductory statements and goals. Both requirements are addressed below. 1. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan: The applicant proposes a plan amendment to change the Comprehensive Plan designation for the subject property from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area. The proposed rezoning from EFU- TRB to MUM will need to be consistent with its proposed new plan designation. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 18 of 57 2. Consistency with the Plan's Introductory Statement and Goals. In previous decisions, the Hearings Officer found the introductory statements and goals are not approval criteria for the proposed plan amendment and zone change. However, the Hearings Officer in the Landholdings decision found that depending on the language, some plan provisions may apply and found the following amended comprehensive plan goals and policies require consideration and that other provisions of the plan do not apply as stated below in the Landholdings decision: "Comprehensive plan statements, goals and policies typically are not intended to, and do not, constitute mandatory approval criteria for quasi-judicial/and use permit applications. Save Our Skyline v. City of Bend, 48 Or LUBA 192 (2004). There, LUBA held. 'As intervenor correctly points out, local and statutory requirements that land use decisions be consistent with the comprehensive plan do not mean that all parts of the comprehensive plan necessarily are approval standards. [Citations omitted.] Local governments and this Board have frequently considered the text and context of cited parts of the comprehensive plan and concluded that the alleged comprehensive plan standard was not an applicable approval standard. [Citations omitted.] Even if the comprehensive plan includes provisions that can operate as approval standards, those standards are not necessarily relevant to all quasi-judicial land use permit applications. [Citation omitted.] Moreover, even if a plan provision is a relevant standard that must be considered, the plan provision might not constitute a separate mandatory approval criterion, in the sense that it must be separately satisfied, along with any other mandatory approval criteria, before the application can be approved. Instead, that plan provision, even if it constitutes a relevant standard, may represent a required consideration that must be balanced with other relevant considerations. (Citations omitted.]' LUBA went on to hold in Save Our Skyline that it is appropriate to 'consider first whether the comprehensive plan itself expressly assigns particular role to some or all of the plan's goals and policies.' Section 23. 08. 020 of the county's comprehensive plan provides as follows: The purpose of the Comprehensive Plan for Deschutes County is not to provide a site -specific identification of the appropriate land uses which may take place on a Particular piece of land but rather it is to consider the significant factors which affect or are affected by development in the County and provide ageneral guide to the various decision which must be made to promote the greatest efficiency and equity possible, while managing the continuinggrowth and change of the area. Part of that process is identification of an appropriate land use plan, which is then 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 19 of 57 intereted to make decision about specific sites (most often in zoning and subdivision administration) but the plan must also consider the sociological, economic and environmental consequences of various actions and provide guidelines and policies for activities which may have effects beyond physical changes of the land (Emphases added by applicant.) The Hearings Officer previously found that the above -underscored language strongly suggests the county's plan statements, goals and policies are not intended to establish approval standards for quasi-judicial land use permit applications. In Bothman v. City of Eugene, 51 Or LUBA 426 (2006), LUBA found it appropriate also to review the language of specific plan policies to determine whether and to what extent they may in fact establish decisional standards. The policies at issue in that case included those ranging from aspirational statements to planning directives to the city to policies with language providing 'guidance for decision - making' with respect to specific rezoning proposals. In Bothman LUBA concluded the planning commission erred in not considering in a zone change proceeding a plan policy requiring the city to '[r]ecognize the existing general office and commercial uses located * * * [in the geographic area including the subject property] and discourage future rezonings of these properties.' LUBA held that. '*** even where a plan provision might not constitute an independently applicable mandatory approval criterion, it may nonetheless represent a relevant and necessary consideration that must be reviewed and balanced with other relevant considerations, pursuant to ordinance provisions that require *** consistency with applicable plan provision.' (Emphasis added.) The county's comprehensive plan includes a large number of goals and policies. The applicant's burden of proof addresses goals for rural development, economy, transportation, public facilities, recreation, energy, natural hazards, destination resorts, open spaces, fish and wildlife, and forest lands. The Hearings Officer finds these goals are aspirational in nature and therefore are not intended to create decision standards for the proposed zone change." Hearings Officer Karen Green adhered to these findings in the Powell/Ramsey decision (file nos. PA- 14-2/ZC-14-2), and found the above referenced introductory statements andgoals are not approval criteria for the proposed plan amendment and zone change. This Hearings Officer also adheres to the above findings herein. Nevertheless, depending upon their language, some plan provisions may require "consideration" even if they are not applicable approval criteria. Save Our Skyline v. City of Bend, 48 Or LUBA 192, 209 (2004). I find that the following amended comprehensive plan goals and policies require such consideration, and that other provisions of the plan do not apply.'" 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 20 of 57 The comprehensive plan goals and polices that the Landholdings Hearings Officer found to apply include the following... The applicant utilizes the analysis provided in prior Hearings Officers' decisions to determine and respond to only the Comprehensive Plan Goals and policies that apply, which are listed below in the Comprehensive Plan section of this Decision. The Hearings Officer finds the above provision is met, based on Comprehensive Plan conformance as set forth in subsequent findings. B. That the change in classification for the subject property is consistent with the purpose and intent of the proposed zone classification. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The applicant is proposing to change the zone classification from EFU to MUA-10. Approval of the application is consistent with the purpose of the MUA-10 zoning district, which stated in DCC 18.32.010 as follows: "The purposes of the Multiple Use Agricultural Zone are to preserve the rural character of various areas of the County while permitting development consistent with that character and with the capacity of the natural resources of the area, to preserve and maintain agricultural lands not suited to full-time commercial farming for diversified or part-time agricultural uses, to conserve forest lands for forest uses, to conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources; to maintain and improve the quality of the air, water and land resources of the County; to establish standards and procedures for the use of those lands designated unsuitable for intense development by the Comprehensive Plan, and to provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban land use." The subject property is not suited to full-time commercial farming as discussed in the findings above. The MUA-10 zone will allow property owners to engage in hobby farming. The low -density of development allowed by the MUA-10 zone will conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources. In the Landholding's case, the Hearings Officer found: I find that the proposed change in zoning classification from EFU is consistent with the purpose and intent of the MUA-10 zone. Specifically, the MUA-10 zone is intended to preserve the rural character of various areas of the County while permitting development consistent with that character and with the capacity of the natural resources of the area. Approval of the proposed rezone to MUA-10 would permit applications for low -density development, which will comprise a transition zone between EFU rural zoning, primarily to the east and City zoning to the west. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 21 of 57 The maximum density of the approximately 36.65-acre property if developed with a cluster development under Title 18 is 7 lots. This low density will preserve open space, allow owners to engage in hobby farming, if desired, and preserve natural and scenic resources and maintain or improve the quality of air, water, and land resources. The MUA-10 zoning provides a proper transition zone from City, to rural zoning to EFU zoning. The applicant's burden of proof statement also includes analysis in the Introduction section at pages 1-2. There, the applicant stated, in relevant part: For the past several years, Deschutes County has recognized the value in rezoning non -productive agricultural lands and has issued decisions in support of plan amendments and zone changes where the applicant demonstrates the property is not agricultural land and, therefore, Statewide Goal 3, Agricultural Lands, does not apply. These cases are the foundation for the subject request. Cases pertinent to the proposed request include. Kelly Porter Burns Landholdings LLC (" Landholdings'I/File nos. 247-16-000317-ZC/318- PA On November 1, 2017, the Board approved Kelly Porter Burns Landholdings LLC's request to change the plan designation on certain property from Agricultural to Rural Residential Exception Area and to change the zone designation from EFU-TRB to MUA-10 zone. The property consists of about 35 acres and abuts the applicant's property to the west (Exhibit 1). Based on the Order 1 soil survey for the property and the submitted evidence, the Hearings Officer found that the Landholdings property does not constitute agricultural land and does not merit protection under Goal 3, and therefore, approved the change in Plan designation and Zoning of the property from Agriculture/EFU-TRB to RREA/MUA-10.6 Division of State Lands Decision/File Nos. PA-11-7 and ZC-11-2 The Division of State Lands case was a 2013 approval by the Board for a plan amendment from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU-TRB to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). Based on the Order 1 soil survey for the property and the submitted evidence, the Board found that the property was not agricultural land and therefore, Goal 3 did not apply (Exhibit 2). 6 The Board adopted as its findings the Hearings Officer's decision with one exception: that if the property is divided, it must be developed as a cluster development and the two irrigation ponds must be included in the common area. In addition, the Board required the applicant to sign a Conditions of Approval agreement to "assure that future residential development of the property will be harmonious with existing development in the area and so that a part of the property may be developed at urban densities if and when the property is annexed to the City of Bend." 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 22 of 57 Paget Decision/File Nos. PA-07-1, ZC-07-1 The Paget decision was a 2007 approval of a plan amendment from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU to MUA-10. The Board adopted the Hearings Officer's decision, which found that the property did not constitute "agricultural land" and therefore, the plan amendment and zone change to MUA-10 was consistent with Goal 3 (Exhibit 3). The Daniels Group/File Nos. PA-08-1, ZC-08-1 The Daniels Group decision was a 2011 Board decision approving a change to the Comprehensive Plan map from Surface Mine and Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a zone change from EFU-LB and Surface Mining to Rural Residential (RR-10). The Board found that the property did not constitute "agricultural land" as defined in Goal 3, was not subject to protection under Goal 3, and therefore, the plan amendment and zone change did not require an exception to Goal 3. (Exhibit 4). The Hearings Officer finds the applicant has demonstrated the change in classification is consistent with the purpose and intent of the MUA-10 Zone. A change in classification will preserve the rural character of the subject property, due to the low density of development allowed in the MUA-10 zone, while permitting development consistent with that character. As set forth in the findings below, the subject property is not suited to full-time commercial farming but could be used for hobby farming. Low density development will also conserve open spaces and protect natural and scenic resources. The Hearings Officer finds that approval of the proposed rezone to MUA-10 would permit applications for low -density development, and will comprise a transition zone between the City and EFU zoning to the east. The Hearings Officer's findings regarding agricultural land and Goal 3 exception are set forth in the findings below. C. That changing the zoning will presently serve the public health, safety and welfare considering the following factors: 1. The availability and efficiency of providing necessary public services and facilities. FINDING: There is no proposal to develop the property at this time. The above criterion asks if the proposed zone change will presently serve public health, safety, and welfare. The applicant provides the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: Necessary public facilities and services are available to serve the subject property, including electrical power from Pacific Power and well logs showing water services are available to serve the property. Exhibit 7. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 23 of 57 Transportation access to the property is available from the stubbed local street connections of Darnel Avenue and Daylily Avenue to the west in the City of Bend Urban Growth Boundary. MUA- 10 zoning and a standard subdivision would allow the creation of up to 3 residential lots and a cluster development would allow up to 7 residential lots. If developed with a cluster development, the property could generate up to 49 additional daily trips, which according to the traffic report by Transight Consulting is a slight increase in trips, but the impact of these trips is negligible on the transportation system and the functional classification of all the adjacent roadways will not be affected with the proposed rezone. The existing road network is available to serve the use of the property if developed. The property receives police services from the Deschutes County Sheriff and is in Rural Fire Protection District #2 with the nearest fire station nearby. Neighboring properties contain residential uses, which have water service from a municipal source or wells, on -site sewage disposal systems, electrical service, telephone services, etc There are no known deficiencies in public services or facilities that would negatively impact public health, safety, or welfare. Neighboring properties contain residential and commercial uses, which have water service from a quasi -municipal source or wells, on -site sewage disposal systems, electrical service, telephone services, etc. There are no known deficiencies in public services or facilities that would negatively impact public health, safety, or welfare. Public commentators expressed concern about access to the subject property. One commentator stated that Ward Road is 3/4 mile away and that the property is not accessible other than via a canal road, which is gated. Other commentators stated that access from City of Bend roads (Daylily Avenue and Darnel Avenue) that are currently stubbed at the edge of the eastern boundary of the Bend UGB, through existing subdivisions will be dangerous. The applicant's attorney stated that there are no current plans to develop the property. The applicant may offer the property for sale or develop as MUA-10 zone. Alternatively, the applicant could hold onto the property until the next Bend UGB expansion process. The Hearings Officer finds that no access to the subject property is required to be established for purposes of consideration of the re -designation and rezoning applications. Any future development will have to establish access in compliance with applicable zoning regulations and the comprehensive plan. Prior to development of the property, the applicant will be required to comply with the applicable requirements of the Deschutes County Code, including possible land use permit, building permit, and sewage disposal permit processes. Through these development review processes, assurance of adequate public services and facilities will be verified. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 24 of 57 2. The impacts on surrounding land use will be consistent with the specific goals and policies contained within the Comprehensive Plan. FINDING: The applicant's submitted burden of proof statement addresses potential impacts on surrounding land uses as related to each individual policy and goal item within the County's Comprehensive Plan in subsequent findings. Analysis of consistency with each applicable goal and policy is set forth in the findings below. The Hearings Officer finds that the MUA-10 zoning is the same zoning of many other properties in the areas east and south of the subject property. As the Hearings Officer found above, MUA 10 zoning provides a proper transition zone from the City to EFU zoning. The requested zone change will not impose new impacts on EFU-zoned land to the north of the subject property because that property is a small parcel, approximately 12 acres in size, that is not engaged in commercial farm use and is developed with a nonfarm dwelling. Further, MUA-10 zoning will have minimal impacts on EFU-zoned land adjacent to the northeast corner of the subject property. As determined by the applicant's soil scientist, Andy Gallagher, it is not practical to farm the subject property because it is comprised primarily of Class 7 and 8 soils and is characterized by a cut-up landscape. The Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not land that could be used in conjunction with the adjacent property. Any future development of the subject property will be subject to building setbacks. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. D. That there has been a change in circumstances since the property was last zoned, or a mistake was made in the zoning of the property in question. FINDING: The applicant is proposing to rezone the property from EFU to MUA10 and re- designate the property from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area. The applicant has provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: 1. Mistake: The EFU zoning designation was likely based on the best available soils data that the County had at the time in the County in the late 1970`s when the comprehensive plan and map were adopted and where agricultural zoning was applied to land with no history of farming78. 7 Gallagher's soils analysis report for the subject property determined that the subject property was previously mapped by the USDA-SCS Soil Survey of the Deschutes County Area and compiled by NRCS into the Web Soil Survey. The property was previously mapped at 1:20,000 scale, which is generally too small a scale for detailed land use planning and decision making, according to Gallagher. 8 Source: Agricultural Lands Program, Community Involvement Results, Community Development, Deschutes County. June 18, 2014. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 25 of 57 2. Change in Circumstances: There clearly has been a change in circumstances since the property was last zoned in the 1970s. Soils. New soils data provided in the Gallagher soils report shows the property does not have agricultural soils. Farming economics and viability of farm uses in Central Oregon have significantly changed. Making a profit in farming, particularly on smaller parcels such as the subject property, is difficult as stated below in the stakeholder interview of the Deschutes County Farm Bureau in the County's 2014 ggricultural Lands Program Community Involvement Results: Today's economics make it extremely difficult for commercial farmers in Deschutes County to be profitable. Farmers have a difficult time being competitive because other regions (Columbia Basin, Willamette Valley) produce crops at higher yields, havegreater access to transportation and consumer markets, and experience more favorable growing climates and soils. Ultimately, the global economy undermines agricultural opportunities in the county because commodities derived from outside the region can be produced at a lower cost. Water limitations also play a role. Junior water right holders are constrained as the summer progresses and they lose their rights to those with higher priority dates. Decline in farm operations have steadily declined in Deschutes County between 2012 and 2017, with only a small fraction of farm operators achieving a net profit from farming in 2017. (Exhibit 8). Encroaching development east of Bend's Urban Growth Boundary has brought both traffic and higher density residential uses and congestion to the area. The applicant's attorney argued at the public hearing that it is not economical or fiscally responsible to retain the subject property as agricultural/farm land given the fact that it is non -productive land. Patrick McCoy testified at the public hearing that there are several other parcels/tracts that are "getting readyto do the same thing' as the applicant. He also stated that a 59-acre parcel was allowed to "go dead" to meet requirements for a rezone. He is concerned about slowing down growth in this area and further expressed concerns that the subject property is landlocked. Mr. McCoy stated that there is a lot of development occurring within a 2-mile radius of his property. Matt Carey testified at the public hearing that development is increasingly encroaching on green space and animals are getting pushed out. He also expressed concerns about access to the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 26 of 57 Kecia Weaver testified that high schoolers participate in 4H and FFA, raising animals and that smaller parcels of land are used for agriculture on a small scale. She values slow growth and maintaining the rural concept, to preserve open spaces. Ms. Weaver is concerned about the rapid development of large acreage and the impact on deer, rabbits, hawks, eagles and bats. She stated that Ward Road is .75 miles away from the subject property, which is not accessible other than via a gated canal road. Ms. Weaver requested that the applications be denied to slow the growth. She further stated that the applications could be considered at the time the UGB expansion is underway. The Hearings Officer makes the following findings. First, whether or not owners of other properties may, or may not, request a change of comprehensive plan designation and zoning is not relevant to the Hearings Officer's consideration of the current applications. Each application must be considered on its own merits. Second, concerns regarding development encroachment support a finding of change of circumstances. Given the evidence that shows the subject property is not comprised of agricultural soils, and is not land that could be used in conjunction with adjacent property, the requested rezone will provide an appropriate transition between urban City development and rural EFU properties. Third, the Hearings Officer does not have authority to deny the requested applications on the basis of concerns about growth. While understandable, the applications may be granted where, as here, all applicable criteria are met. Fourth, the applicant's attorney commented at the public hearing that delaying the applications until the City considers its next urban growth boundary (UGB) expansion will preclude the subject property from consideration. Fifth, with respect to 4H and FFA activities, the Hearings Officer finds that the requested rezone to MUA-10 will continue to allow for hobby farming. Sixth, concerning wildlife concerns, the Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not within a Wildlife Area combining zone; there are no specific wildlife preservation regulations applicable to the property. There is no evidence that the requested rezone, and and of itself, will impact wildlife. Finally, with respect to access, the Hearings Officer finds that no development is proposed at this time and, therefore, access need not be finally determined. If the subject property is developed in the future, the record shows that access from stubbed streets to the west may be considered. For all the foregoing reasons, and based on evidence in the record that shows declining farm operations and limited numbers of financially successful farm operations (Exhibit 8), the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 27 of 57 Hearings Officer finds that a change of circumstances since the time the property was last zoned exists. This criterion is met. Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan Chapter 2, Resource Management Section 2.2 Agricultural Lands Goal 1, Preserve and maintain agricultural lands and the agricultural industry. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The applicant is pursuing a plan amendment and zone change on the basis that the subject property does not constitute "agricultural lands," and therefore, the subject lands are not necessary to preserve or maintain as such. In the Landholdings decision (and Powell/Ramsey decision) the Hearings Officer found that Goal 1 is an aspirational goal and not an approval criterion. As demonstrated in this application, the subject property does not constitute "agricultural land" and therefore, is not necessary to preserve and maintain the County's agricultural industry. The Gallagher soils report shows the subject property to consist predominantly (63.7%) of Class 7 and 8 non-agricultural soils (Gosney-Rock Outcrop complex). According to Mr. Gallagher, these soils have severe limitations for agricultural use as well as low soil fertility, shallow and very shallow soils, abundant rock outcrops and lava tubes, low available water capacity, and major management limitations for livestock grazing. In addition, the minor amount of Deskamp soils (Class 3 irrigated and 6 nonirrigated) are in small isolated pockets and severely restricted by lava tubes, shallow rocky soils, irrigation ditches and property lines that they cannot be used in farming in conjunction with the non -productive Gosney-Rock outcrop. The property also is physically remote from productive farmland as it is adjacent to the City of Bend's urban development to the west and rural residential development to the east and south. Mr. Gallagher concludes that the "landscape is so cut up it is impractical to farm". The Hearings Officer finds Mr. Gallagher's report supports a finding that the subject property does not constitute agricultural land. The subject property is not land that could be used in conjunction with the adjacent property. The requested plan amendment and rezone will not contribute to loss of agricultural land in the surrounding vicinity. The agricultural industry will not be negatively impacted by re -designation and rezoning of the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Section 2.2, Goal 1, "preserve and maintain agricultural lands and the agricultural industry." Policy 2.2.2 Exclusive Farm Use sub -zones shall remain as described in the 1992 Farm Study and shown in the table below, unless adequate legal 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 28 of 57 findings for amending the sub -zones are adopted or an individual parcel is rezoned as allowed by Policy 2.2.3. FINDING: The applicant is not asking to amend the subzone that applies to the subject property; rather, the applicant is seeking a change under Policy 2.2.3 and has provided evidence to support rezoning the subject property to MUA10. The Hearings Officer finds this Policy is inapplicable. Policy 2.2.3 Allow comprehensive plan and zoning map amendments for individual EFU parcels as allowed by State Statute, Oregon Administrative Rules and this Comprehensive Plan. FINDING: The applicant is seeking approval of a plan amendment and zone change to re- designate and rezone the property from Agricultural to Rural Residential Exception Area. The applicant is not seeking an exception to Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands, but rather seeks to demonstrate that the subject property does not meet the state definition of "Agricultural Land" as defined in Statewide Planning Goal 3 (OAR 660-033-0020). The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: Deschutes County has allowed this approach in previous Hearings Officer's decisions including Porter Kelly Burns Landholdings (247-16-000317-ZC/318-PA), Department of State Lands (PA-11- 7/ZG-11-2), Pagel (PA-08-1/ZC-08-1), and the Daniels Group (PA-08-1, ZC-08-1). Additionally, the Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) allowed this approach in Wetherell v. Douglas County, 52 Or LUBA 677 (2006), where LUBA states, at pp.678-679: 'As we explained in DLCD v. Klamath County, 16 Or LUBA 817, 820 (1988), there are two ways a county can justify a decision to allow nonresource use of land previously designated and zoned for farm use or forest uses. One is to take an exception to Goal 3 (Agricultural Lands) and Goal 4 (Forest Lands). The other is to adopt findings which demonstrate the land does not qualify either as forest lands or agricultural lands under the statewide planning goals. When a county pursues the latter option, it must demonstrate that despite the prior resource plan and zoning designation, neither Goal 3 nor Goal 4 applies to the property. Caine v. Tillamook County, 25 Or LUBA 209,218 (1993), DLCD v. Josephine County, 18 Or LUBA 798, 802 (1990)." LUBA's decision in Wetherell has appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals and the Oregon Supreme Court but neither court disturbed LUBA's ruling on this point. In fact, the Oregon Supreme Court changed the test for determining whether land is agricultural land to make it less stringent. Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666, 160 P3d 614 (2007). In that case, the Supreme Court stated that: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 29 of 57 "Under Goal 3, land must be preserved as agricultural land if it is suitable for farm use' as defined in ORS 215.203(2)(a), which means, in part, 'the current employment of land for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money' through specific farming -related endeavors." Wetherell, 342 Or at 677. The Wetherell court held that when deciding whether land is agricultural land "a local government may not be precluded from considering the costs or expenses of engaging in those activities." Wetherell, 342 Or at 680. The facts presented in the subject application are sufficiently similar to those in the Wetherell decisions and in the above -mentioned Deschutes County plan amendment and zone change applications. The subject property is primarily composed of Class 7 or 8 nonagricultural soils making farm -related endeavors not profitable. This application complies with Policy 2.2.3. The Hearings Officer finds that the facts presented by the applicant in the burden of proof for the subject applications are similar to those in the Wetherell decisions and in the aforementioned Deschutes County plan amendment and zone change applications. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant established the property is not agricultural land and does not require an exception to Goal 3 under state law. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Policy 2.2.3. Policy2.2.4 Develop comprehensive policy criteria and code to provide clarity on when and how EFU parcels can be converted to other designations. FINDING: This plan policy provides direction to Deschutes County to develop new policies to provide clarity when EFU parcels can be converted to other designations. The policy is not directed to an individual applicant, as the Hearings Officers found in the Landholdings decision and Powell/Ramsey decision. The Hearings Officer finds that, based on the County's previous determinations in plan amendment and zone change applications, the proposal is consistent with this Policy. Goal 3, Ensure Exclusive Farm Use policies, classifications and codes are consistent with local and emerging agricultural conditions and markets. Policy 2.2.13 Identify and retain accurately designated agricultural lands. FINDING: This plan policy requires the County to identify and retain agricultural lands that are accurately designated. The policy is not directed to an individual applicant, as the Hearings Officers found in the Landholdings decision and Powell/Ramsey decision. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property was not accurately designated as demonstrated by the soil study, NRCS soil data, and the applicant's burden of proof. Further discussion on the soil analysis provided by the analysis is set forth in the findings under the OAR Division 33 criteria below. The Hearings Officer finds the proposal is consistent with this Policy. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 30 of 57 Section 2 5 Water Resources Policies Goal 6, Coordinate land use and water policies. Policy2.5.24 Ensure water impacts are reviewed and, if necessary, addressed for significant land uses or developments. FINDING: The applicant is not proposing a specific development application at this time. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant is not required to demonstrate water impacts associated with development. Rather, the applicant will be required to address this criterion during development of the subject property, which would be reviewed under any necessary land use process for the site (e.g. conditional use permit, tentative plat). The Hearings Officer finds this Policy does not apply to the subject applications. Chapter 3, Rural Growth Section 3.2, Rural Development Growth Potential As of 2010, the strong population growth of the last decade in Deschutes County was thought to have leveled off due to the economic recession. Besides flatter growth patterns, changes to State regulations opened up additional opportunities for new rural development. The following list identifies general categories for creating new residential lots, all of which are subject to specific State regulations. Some farm lands with poor soils that are adjacent to rural residential uses can be rezoned as rural residential FINDING: This section of the Comprehensive Plan does not contain Goals or Policies, but does provide the guidance above. In response to this section, the applicant's burden of proof provides the following: As shown above, the CounVs Comprehensive Plan provisions anticipate the need for additional rural residential lots as the region continues to grow. This includes providing a mechanism to rezone farm lands with poor soils to a rural residential zoning designation. While the rezone application does not include the creation of new residential lots, the applicant has demonstrated the subject property is comprised of poor soils that are adjacent to rural residential MUA-10 zone uses to the east and south as well as urban residential zones within the Bend citylimits to the west. Rezoning the subject property to MUA-10 is consistent with this criterion, as it will provide for an orderly and efficient transition from the Bend Urban Growth Boundary to rural and agricultural lands. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 31 of 57 The MUA-10 Zone is a rural residential zone and as discussed in the Findings of Fact above, there are many adjacent properties to the south and east that are zoned MUA 10. Additionally, the properties to the west are within urban residential zones within the city limits of Bend. The Hearings Officer notes this policy references the soil quality, which is discussed above. The Hearings Officer finds that rezoning the subject property to MUA-0 is consistent with Section 3.2, Chapter 3 of the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan as it will provide for an orderly and efficient transition from the Bend UGB to rural and agricultural lands. Section 3.3, Rural Housing Rural Residential Exception Areas In Deschutes County most rural lands are designated for farms, forests or other resources and protected as described in the Resource Management chapter of this Plan. The majority of the land not recognized as resource lands or Unincorporated Community is designated Rural Residential Exception Area. The County had to follow a process under Statewide Goal 2 to explain why these lands did not warrant farm or forest zoning. The major determinant was that many of these lands were platted for residential use before Statewide Planning was adopted. in 1979 the County assessed that there were over 17,000 undeveloped Rural Residential Exception Area parcels, enough to meet anticipated demand for new rural housing. As of 2010 any new Rural Residential Exception Areas need to be justified through taking exceptions to farm, forest, public facilities and services and urbanization regulations, and follow guidelines set out in the OAR. FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the burden of proof: Prior Hearings Officer's decisions have found that Section 3.3 is not a plan policy or directive9 Further, no goal exception to Statewide Planning Goal 3 is required for the rezone application because the subject property does not qualify as farm or forest zoning or agricultural lands under the statewide planning goals. The County has interpreted the RREA plan designation as the proper "catchall" designation for non -resource land and therefore, the Rural Residential Exception Area (RREA) plan designation is the appropriate plan designation to apply to the subject property10. 9 See PA-1 1-1 7/ZC-1 1-2, 247-16-000317-ZC, 318-PA, and 247-18-000485-PA, 486-ZC 10The Hearings Officer's decision for PA-1 1-1 7/ZC-1 1-2 concerning this language of Section 3.3 states: To the extent that the quoted language above represents a policy, it appears to be directed at a fundamentally different situation than the one presented in this application. The quoted language addresses conversions of'form"or " forest"land to rural residential use. In those cases, the language 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 32 of 57 Based on past Deschutes County Hearings Officer interpretations, the Hearings Officer finds that the above language is not a policy and does not require an exception to the applicable Statewide Planning Goal 3. The Hearings Officer finds the proposed RREA plan designation is the appropriate plan designation to apply to the subject property. Section 3.7, Transportation Appendix C - Transportation System Plan ARTERIAL AND COLLECTOR ROAD PLAN Goal4. Establish a transportation system, supportive of a geographically distributed and diversified economic base, while also providing a safe, efficient network for residential mobility and tourism. Policy 4.4 Deschutes County shall consider roadway function, classification and capacity as criteria for plan map amendments and zone changes. This shall assure that proposed land uses do not exceed the planned capacity of the transportation system. FINDING: This plan policy applies to the County and advises it to consider the roadway function, classification and capacity as criteria for plan amendments and zone changes. The County will comply with this direction by determining compliance with the Transportation Planning Rule (TPR) aka OAR 660-012, as described below in subsequent findings. OREGON ADMINISTRATIVE RULES CHAPTER 660, LAND CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Division 6, Goal 4 - Forest Lands OAR 660-006-0005, Definitions indicates that some type of exception under state statute and DLCD rules will be required in order to support a change in Comprehensive Plan designation. See ORS 197.732 and OAR 660, Division 004. That is not what this application seeks to do. The findings below explain that the applicant has been successful in demonstrating that the subject property is composed predominantly of nonagricultural soil types. Therefore, it is permissible to conclude that the property is not'farmland" as defined under state statute, DLCD rules, and that it is not correctly zoned for exclusive farm use. As such, the application does not seek to convert "agricultural land" to rural residential use. If the land is demonstrated to not be composed of agricultural soils, then there is no "exception" to be taken. There is no reason that the applicant should be made to demonstrate a reasons, developed or committed exception under state law because the subject property is not composed of the type of preferred land which the exceptions process was designed to protect. For all these reasons, the Hearings Officer concludes that the applicant is not required to obtain an exception to Goal 3. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 33 of 57 (7) "Forest lands" as defined in Goal 4 are those lands acknowledged as forest lands, or, in the case of a plan amendment, forest lands shall include. (a) Lands that are suitable for commercial forest uses, including adjacent or nearby lands which are necessary to permit forest operations or practices, and (b) Other forested lands that maintain soil, air, water and fish and wildlife resources. FINDING: The subject property is not zoned for forest lands, nor are any of the properties within a two-mile radius. The property does not contain merchantable tree species and there is no evidence in the record that the property has been employed for forestry uses historically. None of the soil units comprising the parcel is rated for forest uses according to NRCS data. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property does not constitute forest land. Division 33 - Agricultural Lands & Statewide Planning Goal 3 - Agricultural Lands; OAR 660-015-0000(3) To preserve and maintain agricultural lands. Agricultural lands shall be preserved and maintained for farm use, consistent with existing and future needs for agricultural products, forest and open space and with the state's agricultural land use policy expressed in ORS 215.243 and 215.700. FINDING: Goal 3 defines "Agricultural Land;' which is repeated in OAR 660-033-0020(1). The Hearings Officer's findings below are incorporated herein by reference. OAR 660-033-0020, Definitions For purposes of this division, the definitions in ORS 197.015, the Statewide Planning Goals, and OAR Chapter 660 shall apply. In addition, the following definitions shall apply. (1)(a) "Agricultural Land" as defined in Goal includes: (A) Lands classified by the U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) as predominantly Class I -IV soils in Western Oregon and I -VI soils in Eastern Oregon"; 11 OAR 660-033-0020(5): "Eastern Oregon" means that portion of the state lying east of a line beginning at the intersection of the northern boundary of the State of Oregon and the western boundary of Wasco County, then south along the western boundaries of the Counties of Wasco, Jefferson, Deschutes and Klamath to the southern boundary of the State of Oregon. 247-21-000400-PAJ401-ZC Page 34 of 57 FINDING: The applicant's decision not to request an exception to Goal 3 is based on the premise that the subject property is not defined as "Agricultural Land." In support, the applicant offers the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not properly classified as Agricultural Land and does not merit protection under Goal 3. The soils are predominately Class 7 and 8 soils as shown by the more detailed soils report prepared by soils scientist Andy Gallagher, which State law, OAR 660-033-0030, allows the County to rely on for more accurate soils information. Mr. Gallagher found that approximately 64% of the soils on the subject property (about 24 acres) is Land Capability Class 7 and 8 soils that have severe limitations for farm use. He also found the site to have low soil fertility, shallow and very shallow soils, abundant rock outcrops and rock fragments in the surface, lava tubes, and irrigation ditches, low available water capacity, and limiting areas suitable for grazing and restricting livestock accessibility, all of which are considerations for the determination for suitability for farm use. Because the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils, the property does not meet the definition of 'Agricultural Lands" under OAR 660-033- 0020(1)(a)(A) listed above, that is having predominantly Class I -VI soils. The Hearings Officer finds that the soil study provided by Mr. Gallagher of Red Hill Soils is an accurate representation of the data for the subject property. Therefore, the Hearings Officer finds, based on the submitted soil study and the above OAR definition, that the subject property is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils and, therefore, does not constitute "Agricultural Lands" as defined in OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(A) above. (B) Land in other soil classes that is suitable for farm use as defined in ORS 215.203(2)(a), taking into consideration soil fertility; suitability for grazing; climatic conditions; existing and future availability of water for farm irrigation purposes, existing land use patterns, technological and energy inputs required, and accepted farming practices; and FINDING: The applicant's decision not to request an exception to Goal 3 is based on the premise that the subject property is not defined as "Agricultural Land." The applicant provides the following analysis of this determination in the burden of proof. This part of the definition of "Agricultural Land" requires the County to consider whether the Class 7 and 8 soils found on the subject property are suitable for farm use despite their Class 7 and 8 classification. The Oregon Supreme Court has determined that the term 'farm use" as used in this rule and Goal 3 means the current employment of land for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money through specific farming -related endeavors. The costs of engaging in farm use are relevant to determining whether farm activities are profitable and this is a factor in determining whether land is agricultural land. Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666, 160 P3d 614 (2007). 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 35 of 57 The subject property does not have water rights, has not been farmed, or used in conjunction with any farming operation in the past. The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) map shown on the County's GIS mapping program identifies two soil complex units on the property. 36A, Deskamp loamy sand and 58C, Gosney-Rock outcrop-Deskamp complex. The predominant soil complex on the subject property is 58C. 58C is not a high value soil as defined by Deschutes County Code. 36A is considered a high value soil when irrigated. However, as discussed in detail below, there is no irrigation on the property and an Agricultural Soils Capability Assessment (Order 1 soil survey) conducted on the property by soil scientist, Andy Gallagher, determined that the property is not agricultural land; that the class 3 irrigated and 6 non irrigated soils exist in small pockets interspersed with lava tubes, rocky, shallow soils creating severe limitations for any agricultural use on the property or in conjunction with other neighboring lands. (See Exhibit 5 for Mr. Gallagher's Soil Assessment Report). A review of the seven considerations listed in the administrative rule, below, shows why the poor soils found on the subject property are not suitable for farm use that can be expected to be profitable: Soil Fertility: Mr. Gallagher made the following findings regarding soil fertility on the subject property. "Important soil properties affecting the soil fertility and productivity of the soils are very limitingto crop production [emphasis added by applicant] on this parcel. Thesoils here are low fertility, being ashy sandy foams with a low cation exchange capacity (CEC) of 7.5 meq/100 gm and organic matter is very low for Gosney 0.75% and low for Deskamps 1.5%. These soils do not have a large capacity to store soil nutrients especially cations, and nitrogen fertilizers readily leach in sandy soils. The soil depth is further limiting because it limits the overall volume of soil available for plant roots and limits the size the overall nutrient pool. Additionally, the soil available water holding capacity is very low for Gosney less than 1.8 inches for the whole soil profile, and for the very shallow soils it is half this much. The Deskamps soils have only about 2 to 4 inches AWHC translate into low productivity for crops. NRCS does not provide any productivity data for non -irrigated crops on these soils. The productivity of irrigated alfalfa is 4 tons per acre for Deskamps, and no rating for Gosney is same as a zero. There are perhaps 7 acres that could produce alfalfa with irrigation that could produce 28 tons alfalfa under irrigation and high fertility but after costs this would amount to no profit" The fact that these soils are low fertility unless made fertile through artificial means supports the applicant's position that the Class 7 soils and the entire property is not suitable for farm use. The costs to purchase and apply fertilizer and soil amendments and the costs to sample and test soils are a part of the reason why it is not profitable to farm the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 36 of 57 Unsuitability for Grazing: Mr. Gallagher also reviewed whether the parcel is suitable for grazing and found: 'This 37.7-acre parcel is not suited to grazing on a commercial scale [emphasis added by applicant]. The soils here have major management limitations including ashy and sandy surface texture. The majority of the area has soils that are very shallow to shallow with many rock outcrops and rock fragments in the surface. Wind erosion is a potential hazard is moderately high when applying range improvement practices. Because the soil is influenced by pumice ash, reestablishment of the native vegetation is very slow if the vegetation is removed or deteriorated. Pond development is limited by the soil depth. The restricted soil depth limits the choice of species for range seeding to drought -tolerant varieties. Further, range seeding with ground equipment is limited by the rock fragments on the surface. The areas of very shallow soils and rock outcrop limit the areas suitable for grazing and restrict livestock accessibility. Total Range Production from NRCS Websoil survey and estimate based soil percentages in revised soil map units Soil Map Unit _ a Total annual ra Unfavorabley Qk __700 ' Estimabd based onFweightid average of soils duction po ndsper acre e _ Normalyear Favorable 900 558 900 T..M.... 1100 _ 441 - 567 Total range production is the amount of vegetation that can be expected to grow annually in a well -managed area that is supporting the potential natural plant community. It includes all vegetation, whether or not it is palatable to grazing animals. It includes the current year's growth of leaves, twigs, and fruits of woody plants. It does not include the increase in stem diameter of trees and shrubs. It is expressed in pounds per acre of air-dry vegetation. In a normal year, growing conditions are about average. Yields are adjusted to a common percent of air-dry moisture content. The productivity provided for Dk map unit is from Websoil survey far the Deskamp soil and that provided for the GR map unit is based on 40% very shallow soils, 35% Gosney and 25% rock outcrop. Based on previous NRCS map has a weighted average annual productivity of 669 pounds per acre in a normal year. Based on the revised Order-1 map the annual productivity is even lower, 540 pounds per acre. The animal use months (AUMs) for this 37.7 acre parcel is 5.5 based on the revised soil map and a monthly value of 910 pounds forage per 1 AUM equivalent to pounds per cow calf pair. This model assumes the cow's take to be 25% of annual productivity in order to maintain site productivity and soil health (NRCS 2009). This 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 37 of 57 limits the grazing to one cow calf pair roughly 5 to 6 months annually. This is not an economical model for livestock production [emphasis added by applicant]. Inappropriate grazing causes a reduction in desirable grasses and where present cheatgrass will increase and granite pricklygilia increases and grasses decline. Cheatgrass becomes dominate along with grey rabbitbrush. Ground fire potential increases with increasing cheatgrass. Cutting of juniper leads to an increase in grey rabbitbrush and an increase in cheatgrass with or without grazing. Idaho fescue is eliminated from areas where trees are removed due to harsh microclimate and cheatgrass replaces it. The addition of inappropriate grazing would lead to a decline in the other deep-rooted perennial bunchgrasses and an increase in annuals and granite pricklygilia." Climatic Conditions According to Mr. Gallagher, climatic conditions of this area make is [sic] difficult for production of most crops, as stated below. 'The low annual precipitation, high summer temperature and evapotranspiration rates, and shortened frost free growing season make this a difficult climate for production of most crops [emphasis added by applicant]. Irrigation is needed on area farms to meet crop needs given only 8 to 10 inches precipitation that falls mainly between November and ,June, with a long summer drought. The soil temperature regime is mesic. The average annual air temperature is 46 degrees F with extreme temperatures ranging from -26 to 104 degrees F. The frost free period is 50 to 90 days. The optimum period for plant growth is from late March through June. Freeze free period (average) 140 days. (NRCS 2020) These harsh climatic conditions coupled with very low soil available water holding capacity limits the potential of irrigated crop production to the Deskamps soils." Existing and Future Availability of Water for Farm Irrigation Purposes No new irrigation water rights are expected to be available to the Central Oregon Irrigation District (COLD) in the foreseeable future. In order to obtain water rights, the applicant would need to convince another COID customer to remove water rights from their property and sell them to the applicant and obtain State and COID approval to apply the water rights to the subject property. in such a transaction, water rights would be taken off productive farm ground and applied to the nonagricultural soils found on the subject property. Such a transaction runs counter to the purpose of Goal 3 to maintain productive Agricultural Land in farm use. Given the poor quality of these soils, it is highly unlikely that Central Oregon Irrigation District would approve a transfer of water rights to this property. In addition, no person intending to make a profit in farming would go to the expense of purchasing water rights, mapping the water rights and establishing an irrigation system to irrigate the lands on the subject property. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 38 of 57 Given the dry climate, it is necessary to irrigate the subject property to grow an alfalfa crop and to maintain a pasture. A farmer would need to spend significant sums of money to purchase water rights, irrigation systems, maintain the systems, pay laborers to move and monitor equipment, obtain electricity, pay irrigation district assessments and pay increased liability insurance premiums for the risks involved with farming operations. Irrigating the soils found on the subject property as described by Mr. Gallagher, that have low fertility, low capacity to store nutrients, and very low available water holding capacity translates into low productivity for crops that would amount to no profit. Existing Land Use Patterns Existing land use patterns in the area are primarily non-agricultural related land uses including urban development to the west within the Bend City limits, County exception lands zoned MUA-10 developed with homes and small acres of irrigation for pasture and other hobby farm uses to the east and south, and irrigated farmland zoned EFU-TRB to the north and northeast. The EFU-zoned properties to the north and northeast include: North and northeast of the subject property is a pocket of EFU-zoned property. The adjacent property to the north, tax lot 18-12-02-1001, is a 12.45-acre EFU-zoned property that is partially irrigated and developed with a nonfarm dwelling ale no. CU-01-75). Northeast is tax lot 18-12-02-201, a 53.30-acre farm parcel that is irrigated and engaged in hay production, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a dwelling and outbuildings. The close proximity to the City of Bend and residential areas limit the types of agricultural activities that could reasonably be conducted for profit on the subject property. The subject property would not be suitable for raising animals that are disturbed by noise. Additionally, the property owner would bear the burden of paying for harm that might be caused by livestock escape, in particular livestock and vehicle collisions. Any agricultural use that requires the application of pesticides and herbicides would be very difficult to conduct on the property given the numerous homes located in close proximity to the property. In addition, the creation of dust which accompanies the harvesting of crops is a major concern on this property due to the close proximity residential use. Technological and Energy inputs Required: According to Mr. Gallagher. `The veryshallow and shallow soils and abundant rock outcrops limit practical agricultural crop production on all but about 7 acres out of the 10 acres of Deskamps soils. The Deskamps soils are into four separate delineations that are separated by rocky and shallow soils and rock outcrops and lava tubes as well as irrigation ditches. The landscape 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 39 of 57 is so cut up it is impractical to farm [emphasis added by applicant]. The best case scenario for crop production is for an area approximately seven acres along the north edge of the parcel that is spotted with rock outcrops and is of a very irregular shape. This area could at most produce about 28 tons of alfalfa under high fertilizer inputs and high irrigation water inputs. Current hay prices are from $200.00 to $250.00 per ton which would give an annual gross of about $5,600.00 to $7,000.00, before expenses. After expenses are deducted for land costs, site preparation, planting, costs of production like irrigation, fertilizer, weed control, costs of harvest including swath, rake, and bale, stack, and costs of handling, storage and marketing there would be no profit associated with producing hay crops on such a small area [emphasis added by applicant]." Accepted Farming Practices: Farming lands comprised of soils that are predominately Class 7 and 8 is not an accepted farm practice in Central Oregon. Dryland grazing, the farm use that can be conducted on the poorest soils in the County, typically occurs on Class 6 non -irrigated soils that have a higher soils class if irrigated. The applicant would have to go above and beyond accepted farming practices to even attempt to farm the property for dryland grazing. Crops are typicallygrown on soils in soil class 3 and 4 that have irrigation, which this property has neither. The Hearings Officer finds that many of the factors surrounding the subject property, such as the proximity to the Bend city limits, current residential and non-agricultural related land uses in the area, soil fertility, spotty/small areas of Class 3 (irrigated) and Class 6 (non - irrigated) soils, and lack of availability of water rights, result in an extremely low possibility of successful farming on the subject property. The Hearings Officer finds that the subject property, primarily comprised of Class 7 and 8 soils, is not suitable for farm use as defined in ORS 215.203(2)(a), taking into consideration the soil fertility, suitability for grazing, climactic conditions, existing and future availability of water for farm irrigation purposes, existing land use patterns, technological and energy outputs required and accepted farming practices. Substantial evidence in the record supports a determination that the subject property cannot be employed for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money through farming -related endeavors, considering the costs of engaging in farm use. Wetherell v. Douglas County, 342 Or 666,160 P3d 614 (2007). Soils on the subject property can only be made fertile through artificial means, which is cost prohibitive from a profitability standpoint. The subject property is not suitable to grazing on a commercial scale given management limitations and expected low production of suitable vegetation. Climactic conditions result in difficulty for production of most crops. Given the fact that no new irrigation water rights are expected to be available to the COID in the foreseeable future and the poor quality of soils on the subject property, it is unlikely COID would approve a transfer of water rights to the property. Existing land use patterns also limit the suitability of grazing animals on the subject property which is in close proximity to the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 40 of 57 City of Bend. A limited, approximately 7-acre portion of the subject property that could, at most, produce 28 tons of alfalfa with high fertilizer and water inputs, would not generate any profit after expenses are deducted for land costs, site preparation, planting and costs of production (irrigation, fertilizer, weed control, cost of harvest and cost of handling storage and marketing). Accepted farm practices in Central Oregon do not include farming lands comprised of soils that are predominantly Class 7 and 8. In order to conduct dryland grazing on the subject property, the applicant would have to take measures beyond accepted farming practices, including attempting to obtain a water rights transfer. (C) Land that is necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby agricultural lands. FINDING: The applicant offers the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not land necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. The nearest agriculturally zoned land engaged in farm use to the subject property is located northeast on tax lot 18-12-02-201. This property is a 53.30-acre farm parcel that is irrigated and engaged in hay production, receiving farm tax deferral, and developed with a dwelling and outbuildings. The farm operations on tax Lot 201 operate independently and are not dependent upon the subject property to conduct its farm practices. This is evidenced by the subject property being owned by the applicant since 1930 and has never been farmed, much less combined with tax lot 201 in any way for agricultural purposes. Farming operations on tax lot 201 will be able to continue to occur if the subject property is rezoned to MUA-10. Further, the poor quality soils and lack of irrigation are not suited to agricultural production and make the subject property unsuitable for farm practices on the nearby agricultural land. The Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not necessary for the purposes of permitting farm practices on the nearby Tax Lot 201 (Assessor's Map 18-12-02) based on the factors discussed in the previous finding. (b) Land in capability classes other than I-IV/I-V/ that is adjacent to or intermingled with lands in capability classes I-IV/I-VI within a farm unit, shall be inventoried as agricultural lands even though this land may not be cropped or grazed; FINDING: The applicant provided the following response in the submitted burden of proof statement: The subject property is not and has not been a part of a farm unit that includes other lands not currently owned by the applicant. The property has no history of farm use and contains soils that make it unsuitable for farm use and therefore, no basis to inventory the subject property as agricultural land. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 41 of 57 Goal 3 applies a predominant soil type test to determine if a property is "agricultural land" If a majority of the soils is Class 1-6 in in Central or Eastern Oregon, it must be classified "agricultural land." 1000 Friends position is that this is a 100% Class 7 -8 soils test rather than a 51% Class 7 and 8 soils test because the presence of any Class 1-6 soil requires the County to identify the entire property "agricultural land." Case law indicates that the Class 1 -6 soil test applies to a subject property proposed for a non-agricultural plan designation while the farm unit rule looks out beyond the boundaries of the subject property to consider how the subject property relates to lands in active farming in the area that were once a part of the area proposed for rezoning. It is not a test that requires that 100% of soils on a subject property be Class 1-6. The farm unit rule is written to preserve large farming operations in a block. It does this by preventing property owners from dividing farmland into smaller properties that, alone, do not meet the definition of "agricultural land." The subject property is not formerly part of a larger area of land that is or was used for farming operations and was then divided to isolate poor soils so that land could be removed from EFU zoning. As demonstrated by the historic use patterns and soils reports, it does not have poor soils adjacent to or intermingled with good soils within a farm unit. The subject property is not in farm use and has not been in farm use of any kind. It has no history of commercial farm use and contains soils that make the property generally unsuitable for farm use as the term is defined by State law. It is not a part of a farm unit with other land. The subject property is predominately Class 7 and 8 soils and would not be considered a farm unit itself nor part of a larger farm unit based on the poor soils and the fact that none of the adjacent property is farmed. As shown by the soils capability study by Mr. Gallagher, the predominant soil type found on the subject property is Class 7 and 8, nonagricultural land (63.7%). The predominance test says that the subject property is not agricultural soil and the farm unit rule does not require that the Class 7-8 soils that comprise the majority of the subject property be classified as agricultural land due to the presence of a small amount of Class 1-6 soils on the subject property that are not employed in farm use and are not part of a farm unit. As a result, this rule does not require the Class 7 and 8 soils on the subject property to be classified agricultural land because a minority of the property contains soils rated Class 6. The Hearings Officer finds that there are no bases on which to find that the subject property shall be inventoried as agricultural lands under this criterion. The property does not relate to land in active farming, and there are no parcels in the area that were once part of the subject property. A majority of the soils (63.7%) are not Class 1-6. Therefore, under the predominance test, the subject property is not agricultural. The farm unit rule does not mandate a different result. The subject properly is not employed in farm use and is not now, nor in the past, part of a farm unit. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 42 of 57 (c) "Agricultural Land" does not include land within acknowledged urban growth boundaries or land within acknowledged exception areas for Goal 3 or 4. FINDING: The subject property is not within an acknowledged urban growth boundary or land within acknowledged exception areas for Goals 3 or 4. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is inapplicable. OAR 660-033-0030, Identifying Agricultural Land (1) All land defined as "agricultural land" I OAR 660-033-0020(1) shall be inventoried as agricultural land. (2) When a jurisdiction determines the predominant soil capability classification of a lot or parcel it need only look to the land within the lot or parcel being inventoried. However, whether land is "suitable for farm use" requires an inquiry into factors beyond the mere identification of scientific soil classifications. The factors are listed in the definition of agricultural land set forth at OAR 660-033-0020(1)(a)(B). This inquiry requires the consideration of conditions existing outside the lot or parcel being inventoried. Even if a lot or parcel is not predominantly Class I -IV soils or suitable for farm use, Goal 3 nonetheless defines as agricultural "lands in other classes which are necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands': A determination that a lot or parcel is not agricultural land requires findings supported by substantial evidence that addresses each of the factors set forth in 660-033-0020(1). FINDING: The applicant addressed the factors in OAR 660-033-0020(1) above. As the Hearings Officer has found herein, the property is not "agricultural land," as referenced in OAR 660-033-0030(1), and contains barriers for farm use including poor quality soils and lack of irrigation. The Hearings Officer finds that substantial evidence in the record shows the subject property is not "agricultural land" because the property is predominantly Class 7 and 8 soils. As the Hearings Officer found above, the subject property is not necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. (3) Goal 3 attaches no significance to the ownership of a lot or parcel when determining whether it is agricultural land. Nearby or adjacent land, regardless of ownership, shall be examined to the extent that a lot or parcel is either "suitable for farm use" or "necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands" outside the lot or parcel. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 43 of 57 FINDING: The Hearings Officer finds that evidence in the record, including examination of lands outside the boundaries of the subject property, shows the subject property is not "agricultural land." Substantial evidence shows that the subject property is not suitable for farm use and is not necessary to permit farm practices to be undertaken on adjacent or nearby lands. (5)(a) More detailed data on soil capability than is contained in the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) soil maps and soil surveys may be used to define agricultural land. However, the more detailed soils data shall be related to the NRCS land capability classification system. (b) if a person concludes that more detailed soils information than that contained in the Web Soil Survey operated by the NRCS as ofJanuary2, 201Z would assist a county to make a better determination of whether land qualifies as agricultural land, the person must request that the department arrange for an assessment of the capability of the land by a professional soil classifier who is chosen by the person, using the process described in OAR 660-033-0045. FINDING: The soil study prepared by Mr. Gallagher (Exhibit 5) provides more detailed soils information than contained in the NRCS Web Soil Survey. Exhibit 5 includes the Soil Assessment Completeness Review conducted by DLCD pursuant to OAR 660-033-0045(6)(a), dated February 12, 2021, confirming the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher meets the requirements for agricultural soils capability reporting. Mr. Gallagher's soils assessment report provides a high intensity Order-1 soil survey and soil assessment - a detailed and accurate soils assessment on the subject property based on numerous soil samples - to determine if the subject property is "agricultural land" within the meaning of OAR 660-033-0020. As explained in Mr. Gallagher's report, the NRCS soil map of the subject property shows two general soil mapping units, 58C and 36A. The more detailed Order-1 survey conducted by Mr. Gallagher included 41 soil test pits, in addition to observations of surface rock on the parcel. The results of the previous and revised soils mapping units with land capability class are provided in Table 1 below. The soils report is related to the NCRS Land Capability Classification (LLC) system that classifies soils class 1 through 8. An LCC rating is assigned to each soil type based on rules provided by the NRCS. The soils report provides more detailed soils information than contained on the Web Soil Survey operated by the NRCS, which provides general soils data at a scale generally too small for detailed land use planning and decision making. The NRCS mapping for the subject property is shown below in Figure 1. According to the NRCS Web Soil Survey tool, the property contains approximately 33.7% 36A soil and contains 66.3% 58C soil. The soils study conducted by Mr. Gallagher finds the soil types on the subject 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 44 of 57 property vary from the NRCS identified soil types. The soil types described by Mr. Gallagher (as quoted from Exhibit 5) and the characteristics and LCC rating are shown in Table 1 below. GR Gosney-Rock Outcrop Complex Capability Class: 7 and 8 mapped as complex These soils are mapped together in a complex because both components are Capability Class 7 or greater, and it was not practical to map them separately. These soils are estimated to be about 25 percent Rock Outcrop and 75 percent Gosney. They have lower productivity than NRCS map unit 38B because they do not contain a mappable area of Deskamp soils that were mapped separately. The productivity reported in Table 2 for Gosney-Rock Outcrop are 20 percent less than the 58C map unit to account for more shallow and very shallow soils in the GR map unit in the revised map unit. Based on the observations here, the map unit is about 40 percent very shallow soils, 35 percent Gosney soils, and 25 percent rock outcrops. Gosney loamy sand and stony loamy sand (0 to 15 percent slopes) Description: Gosney series consists of shallow (10 to 20 inches) to hard basalt bedrock, somewhat excessively drained soils on lava plains. These soils have rapid permeability. They formed in volcanic ash over hard basalt bedrock. Slopes are 0 to 15 percent. The mean annual precipitation is less than 12 inches, and the mean annual temperature is about 45 degrees F. Capability Class: 7 Soil Variability: Depth to bedrock is from surface exposures of bedrock to 20 inches depth. There may be small inclusions of soils like Deskamp that are moderately deep (>20 inches to 40 inches). Many of the pedons are very stony. This unit includes very shallow soils <10 inches. Very shallow phase 0-15 percent slopes Description: This component of the complex is less than 10 inches to basalt. Capability Class: 7 Soil Variability: Depth to bedrock is from 1 to 10 inches. These soils are very shallow and of similar parent material to Gosney. These soils have lower available water holding capacity and an estimated 40 percent lower productivity. Rock Outcrop (0 to 15 percent slopes) Description: This part of the map unit is areas where bedrock is at the surface. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 45 of 57 Capability Class: 8 Soil Variability: In places, rocks are right at the surface and often times bedrock is standing several feet above the surface of the adjacent soils. In some areas (borings 39-41) there is rimrock, large boulders and other surface stone where suspected lava tubes collapsed. Dk Deskamp loamy sand Description: This map unit is mainly moderately deep, somewhat excessively drained soils with rapid permeability on lava plains. These soils formed in ash and have hard basalt at 20 to 40 inches. Slopes are 1 to 15 percent. The A and AB horizon are loamy sand. The 2B is loamy sand and gravelly loamy sand. The NRCS soils survey mapped Deskamp and Gosney in a complex described as 50% Deskamp and 35% Gosney. In this Dk unit I delineated the Deskamp component of the former complex and mapped it as a consociation based on more detailed soil sampling than the NRCS soil survey. This soil covers approximately 11 acres of the parcel and is broken up into several small delineations two of which are less than an acre. These small and isolated areas are impractical to farm. The largest delineation is 8.5 acres and has at least three areas of rock outcrop that were delineated within. Capability Class: 3-irrigated and 6 non -irrigated Soil Variability: There are small inclusions of rock outcrop and of deep soils with sandy skeletal family. Any rock outcrop I observed in the field was delineated from the Deskamp unit, but because not all rock outcrops could be resolved at the one boring per acre average sampling intensity, given the brushy conditions. CN Irrigation Canals Description: These canals are non -soil areas that consist of water and steep banks. When canals are dry they are hard rock bottom. Capability Class: Not Rated Based on Mr. Gallagher's qualifications as a certified Soil Scientist and Soil Classifier, the Hearings Officer finds the submitted soil study to be definitive and accurate in terms of site - specific soil information for the subject property. The state's agricultural land rules, OAR 660-033-0030, allow the County to rely on the soil capability analysis prepared by Mr. Gallagher, which is more detailed than the NRCS soil maps and soil surveys and the Web Soil Survey operated bythe NRCS as of January 2, 2012. The Hearings Officer finds thatthe Order- 1 soil survey is related to the NRCS land capability classification system. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 46 of 57 The Hearings Officer finds that the more detailed soils information in the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher assists the County to make a better determination of whether the subject property qualifies as agricultural land. As set forth above, DLCD completed a Soil Assessment Completeness Review pursuant to OAR 660-033-0045(6)(a), confirming the report prepared by Mr. Gallagher meets the requirements for agricultural soils capability reporting. For all the foregoing reasons, the Hearings Officer finds the subject property is not "agricultural land," Table 1- Summary of Order I Soil Survey Previous Revised Capability Class Previous Revised Map Map Map Soil Series !dame MaIr Ac "k- Ac -9e- Symbol Symbol 36A ._.__-..

(d) This section and OAR 660-033-0045 implement ORS 215.211, effective on October 1, 2011. After this date, only those soils assessments certified by the department under section (9) of this rule may be considered by local governments in land use proceedings described in subsection (c) of this section. However, a local government may consider soils assessments that have been completed and submitted prior to October 1, 2011. FINDING: The applicant submitted a soils study by Mr. Gallagher of Red Hill Soils dated December 2, 2020. The soils study was submitted following the ORS 215.211 effective date. Staff received acknowledgement via email on February 16, 2021, from Hilary Foote, Farm/Forest Specialist with the DLCD that the soils study is complete and consistent with DLCD's reporting requirements. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion to be met based on the submitted soils study and confirmation of completeness and consistency from DLCD. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 48 of 57 (e) This section and OAR 660-033-0045 authorize a person to obtain additional information for use in the determination of whether land qualifies as agricultural land, but do not otherwise affect the process by which a county determines whether land qualifies as agricultural land as defined by Goal 3 and OAR 660-033-0020. FINDING: The applicant has provided a DLCD certified soils study as well as NRCS soils data. The Hearings Officer finds that the applicant has complied with the soils analysis requirements of OAR 660-033-0045 in order to obtain DLCD certification. DLCD's certification establishes compliance with OAR 660-033-0045. The Hearings Officer finds this criterion is met. DIVISION 12, TRANSPORTATION PLANNING OAR 660-012-0060 Plan and Land use Regulation Amendments (1) if an amendment to a functional plan, an acknowledged comprehensive plan, or a land use regulation (including a zoning map) would significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility, then the local government must put in place measures as provided in section (2) of this rule, unless the amendment is allowed under section (3), (9) or (10) of this rule. A plan or land use regulation amendment significantly affects a transportation facility if it would. (a) Change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility (exclusive of correction of map errors in an adopted plan), (b) Change standards implementing a functional classification system; or (c) Result in any of the effects listed in paragraphs (A) through (C) of this subsection based on projected conditions measured at the end of the planning period identified in the adopted TSP. As part of evaluating projected conditions, the amount of traffic projected to be generated within the area of the amendment may be reduced if the amendment includes an enforceable, ongoing requirement that would demonstrably limit traffic generation, including, but not limited to, transportation demand management. This reduction may diminish or completely eliminate the significant effect of the amendment. (A) Types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility, (e) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet the 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 49 of 57 performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan; or (C) Degrade the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected to not meet the performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. FINDING: As referenced in the agency comments section in the Findings of Fact above, the Senior Transportation Plannerfor Deschutes County initially requested a revised traffic study for the applications. The applicant submitted an updated report from Transight Consulting LLC dated June 8, 2021, to address identified concerns and no further comments were received from the County's Senior Transportation Planner. The update includes adjustments to the review of potential high impact land use scenarios to include comparisons between a winery and a cluster development, deemed the "worst case scenario" outright uses allowed in EFU and MUA10 Zones, respectively. In response to these criteria, the applicant's burden of proof provides the following statement: Attached as Exhibit 9 is a transportation impact analysis memorandum prepared by tragic engineer, Joe Bessman, PE, Mr. Bessman made the following key findings with regard to the proposed zone change and concluded that a significant affect does not occur with the proposed rezone: • Rezoning of the 36.65-acre CO/D property from EFU-TRB to MUA could generate up to 49 additional weekday daily trips, including only five additional trips during the weekday p.m. peak hour. • The change in trips does not meet Deschutes County, ODOT, or City of Bend thresholds of significance at any nearby locations. • The site will be served with stubbed local street connections west through the Marketplace Subdivision that connect to the SE 27`h Street corridor. This access configuration does not impact Deschutes County streets. • The nearest classified intersection of SE 27rh Street/SE Reed Market Road has a very low crash rate. There are no documented safety needs within the project vicinity. Based on this review a significant affect does not occur with the proposed rezone given the minor potential impacts in transitioning from EFU to MUA zoning. Based on the traffic analysis and findings by Mr. Bessman, the application complies with the TPR. Updated findings below, submitted by Transight Consulting on June 8, 2021, are set forth in the revised traffic study: 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 50 of 57 • Rezoning of the 36.65-acre COID property from EFU-TRB to MUA provides similar potential impacts to the existing zoning, with the potential for a trip reduction within a "worse case" trip generation scenario. • The reduction in trips does not meet Deschutes County, ODOT, or City of Bend thresholds of significance at any nearby locations. • The site will be served with stubbed local street connections west through the adjacent Marketplace Subdivision that connect to the SE 27th Street corridor. This access configuration does not impact Deschutes County streets. • The nearest classified intersection of SE 27th StreetYSE Reed Market Road has a very low crash rate. There are no documented safety needs within the project vicinity. Based on this review a significant affect does not occur with rezoning from EFU to MUA zoning. With the range of outright allowable uses identified within ORS 215.213(1) and 215.283(1) as a "property right" additional trip generation scenarios could be shown resulting in a trip reduction. Regardless of the scenario, the overall impact of the rezone is negligible on the transportation system and the rezone reflects the more appropriate use of the propertygiven its unsuitabilityfor farming. Public comments received by the County indicate concerns with potential traffic impacts as a result of the proposed plan amendment and zone change. These comments are non- specific in nature, do not include any findings contrary to the findings set forth in the Transight Consulting, LLC analyses, and do not include any information that is inconsistent with the Transight Consulting, LLC's reports. Public comments express a generalized concern about traffic impacts associated with additional growth if the subject property is developed. The Hearings Officer notes that additional transportation/traffic review will be required at the time of any future development application(s). The Hearings Officer finds that the proposed rezone will not significantly affect an existing or planned transportation facility for the following reasons: (1) it will not change the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility; (2) it will not change standards implementing a functional classification system; and (3) it will not result in any of the following effects - types or levels of travel or access that are inconsistent with the functional classification of an existing or planned transportation facility, degradation of the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility such that it would not meet performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan, or degradation of the performance of an existing or planned transportation facility that is otherwise projected not to meet performance standards identified in the TSP or comprehensive plan. The Hearings Officer finds that, based on OAR 660-012-060(1), the County is not required to put in place measures as provided in Section (2) of this rule. The applicant has demonstrated compliance with the TPR. These criteria are met. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 51 of 57 DIVISION 15, STATEWIDE PLANNING GOALS AND GUIDELINES OAR 660-015 Division 15, Statewide Planning Goals and Guidelines FINDING: The Statewide Planning Goals are addressed below, as set forth in the applicant's burden of proof. Goal 1, Citizen Involvement. Deschutes County will provide notice of the application to the public through mailed notice to affected property owners and by requiring the applicant to post a "proposed land use action sign" on the subject property. Notice of the public hearings held regarding this application will be placed in the Bend Bulletin. A minimum of two public hearings will be held to consider the application. Goal 2, Land Use Planning. Goals, policies, and processes related to zone change applications are included in the Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan and Titles 18 and 23 of the Deschutes County Code. The outcome of the application will be based on findings of fact and conclusions of law related to the applicable provisions of those laws as required by Goal 2. Goal 3, Agricultural Lands. The applicant has shown that the subject property is not agricultural land because it is comprised predominantly of Class 7 and 8 soils that are not suitable for farm use. Therefore, the proposal is consistent with Goal 3. Goal 4, Forest Lands. Goal 4 is not applicable because the subject property does not include any lands that are zoned for, or that support, forest uses. Goal 5, Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces. Deschutes County DIAL property information and Interactive Map show the subject property has 'Wetlands" that correspond with COID's irrigation distribution system within the property including the developed canals and ditches. According to the Comprehensive Plan (Chapters 2, Resource Management and 5, Supplemental Sections), in 1992 Deschutes County Ordinance 92-045 adopted all wetlands identified on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetland Inventory (NWI) Maps as the Deschutes County wetland inventory. In addition, as described in the Comprehensive Plan, the NWI Map "shows an inventory of wetlands based on high -altitude aerial photos and limited field work. While the NWI can be useful for many resource management and planning purposes, its small scale, accuracy limitations, errors of omission that range up to 55 percent (existing wetlands not shown on NWI), age (1980s), and absence of property boundaries make it unsuitable for parcel -based decision making." The Comprehensive Plan has no specific protections for wetlands; protections are provided by ordinances that implement Goal 5 protections (for example, fill and removal zoning code regulations). In the case of Irrigation Districts performing work within wetlands, DCC 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 52 of 57 18.120.050(C) regarding Fill and Removal Exceptions allows fill and removal activities as a use permitted outright as stated below. C. Fill and removal activities conducted by an Irrigation District involving piping work in existing canals and ditches within wetlands are permitted outright. Because the proposed plan amendment and zone change are not development, there is no impact to any Goal 5 resource. Any potential future development of a wetland - no matter what zone the wetland is in - will be subject to review by the CounVs fill and removal regulations. Goal 6, Air, Water and Land Resources Quality. The approval of this application will not impact the quality of the air, water, and land resources of the County. Any future development of the property would be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect these resources. Goal 7, Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards. According to the Deschutes County DIAL property information and Interactive Map the entire Deschutes County, including the subject property, is located in a Wildfire Hazard Area. The subject property is also located in Rural Fire Protection District #2. Rezoning the property to MUA-10 does not change the Wildfire Hazard Area designation. Any future development of the property would need to demonstrate compliance with any fire protection regulations and requirements of Deschutes County. Goal 8, Recreational Needs. This goal is not applicable because no development is proposed and the property is not planned to meet the recreational needs of Deschutes County. The Bend Parks and Recreation District has an undeveloped park site, Hansen Park, located to the south of the property with plans to develop the park trailhead that would serve the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail System. The proposed rezone does not impact the recreational needs of Deschutes County as no development is proposed. Goal 9, Economy of the State. This goal does not apply to this application because the subject property is not designated as Goal 9 economic development land. In addition, the approval of this application will not adversely affect economic activities of the state or area. Goal 10, Housing. The County's Comprehensive Plan Goal 10 analysis anticipates that farm properties with poor soils, like the subject property, will be converted from EFU to MUA-10 or RR-10 zoning and that these lands will help meet the need for rural housing. Approval of this application, therefore, is consistent with Goal 10 as implemented by the acknowledged Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 53 of 57 Goal 11, Public Facilities and Services. The approval of this application will have no adverse impact on the provision of public facilities and services to the subject site. Pacific Power has confirmed that it has the capacity to serve the subject property and the proposal will not result in the extension of urban services to rural areas. Goal 12, Transportation. The application complies with the Transportation System Planning Rule, OAR 660-012-0060, the rule that implements Goal 12. Compliance with that rule also demonstrates compliance with Goal 12. Goal 13, Energy Conservation. The approval of this application does not impede energy conservation. The subject property is located adjacent to the city limits for the City of Bend. If the property is developed with residential dwellings in the future, providing homes in this location as opposed to more remote rural locations will conserve energy needed for residents to travel to work, shopping and other essential services provided in the City of Bend. Goal 14, Urbanization. This goal is not applicable because the applicant's proposal does not involve property within an urban growth boundary and does not involve the urbanization of rural land. The MUA-10 Zone is an acknowledged rural residential zoning district that limits the intensity and density of developments to rural levels. The compliance of this zone with Goal 14 was recently acknowledged when the County amended its comprehensive plan. The plan recognizes the fact that the MUA-10 and RR zones are the zones that will be applied to lands designated Rural Residential Exception Areas. Goals 15 through 19. These goals do not apply to land in Central Oregon. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 1 (Citizen Involvement) has been established with the public notice requirements required by the County for these applications (mailed notice, posted notice and two public hearings). Similarly, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 2 (Land Use Planning) based on the applications' consistency with goals, policies and processes related to zone change applications as set forth in the Comprehensive Plan and Titles 18 and 23 of the Deschutes County Code. Based on the findings above, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 3 (Agricultural Lands) has been demonstrated because the subject property is not Agricultural Land. The property is not comprised of Forest Lands; Goal 4 is inapplicable. With respect to Goal 5 (Natural Resources, Scenic and Historic Areas, and Open Spaces), the Hearings Officer finds that the property does not include any scenic and historic areas. Moreover, while the property is currently open and undeveloped, the County Goal 5 inventory does not include the subject property as an "open space" area protected by Goal 5. Members of the public expressed concern regarding potential impact on wildlife. However, the Hearings Officer notes that the property does not include a wildlife overlay (WA) 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 54 of 57 designation and, more importantly, no development is proposed at this time. Rezoning the subject property will not, in and of itself, impact wildlife on the subject property. The property does include areas mapped as wetlands by the NWI, which constitute Goal 5 natural resources. Fill and removal activities conducted by an irrigation district are allowed outright under DCC 18.120.050(C). The Hearings Officer again notes that no specific development activities, including fill and removal, is proposed at this time. Because the proposed plan amendment and zone change do not constitute development, there is no impact to any Goal 5 resource. The Hearings Officer finds that future development activities will be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect delineated wetlands. For these reasons, the Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 5. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 6 (Air, Water and Land Resources Quality) because there is no demonstrable impact of approval of the application to rezone the subject property from EFU to MUA-10. Future development activities will be subject to local, state and federal regulations that protect these resources. With respect to Goal 7 (Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards), the Hearings Officer finds consistency with this Goal based on the fact that rezoning the property to MUA-10 does not change the Wildfire Hazard Area designation that is applicable to the entirety of Deschutes County. The subject property is within the Rural Fire Protection District #2. Any application(s) for future development activities will be required to demonstrate compliance with fire protection regulations. The Hearings Officer finds consistency with Goal 8 (Recreational Needs) given the fact that no development is currently proposed and that rezoning, in and of itself, will not impact recreational needs of Deschutes County. Members of the public testified regarding concerns of loss of the currently vacant property as open space and for recreational uses. The Hearings Officer notes that the record includes evidence regarding an undeveloped Bend Park and Recreation District park site, Hansen Park, located to the south of the property. There are plans to develop a park trailhead that would serve the Central Oregon Historic Canal Trail System. The Hearings Officer finds that the proposed rezone does not impact these recreational amenity plans. The Hearings Officer finds Goal 9 (Economy of the State) is inapplicable because the subject property is not designated as Goal 9 economic development land. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 10 (Housing) because the Comprehensive Plan Goal 10 chapter anticipates that farm properties with poor soils will be converted from EFU to MUA-10 or RR-10 zoning, making such properties available to meet the need for rural housing. Although no development of the subject property is proposed at this time, rezoning the subject property from EFU to MUA 10 will enable consideration of the property for potential rural housing development in the future. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 55 of 57 The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 11 (Public Facilities and Services). The record establishes that Pacific Power has capacityto serve the subject property and the proposal will not result in the extension of urban services to rural areas. Based on the findings above regarding the Transportation System Planning Rule, OAR 660- 012-0060, the Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 12 (Transportation). The Hearings Officerfinds the applications are consistentwith Goal 13 (Energy Conservation) because there is no evidence approval of the applications will impede energy conservation. Rather, if the property is developed with residential dwellings in the future, energy conservation will be increased - not impeded - as residents will not be required to travel as far to work, shopping and other essential services provided in the City of Bend. The Hearings Officer finds the applications are consistent with Goal 14 (Urbanization). The subject property is not within an urban growth boundary and does not involve urbanization of rural land because the MUA-10 zone does not include urban uses as permitted outright or conditionally. The MUA-10 zone is an acknowledged rural residential zoning district that limits the intensity and density of developments to rural levels. The state acknowledged compliance of the MUA 10 zone with Goal 14 when the County amended its comprehensive plan. The Hearings Officer finds that Goals 15-19 do not apply to land in Central Oregon. For all the foregoing reasons, the Hearings Officer finds compliance with the applicable Statewide Planning Goals has been demonstrated. IV. DECISION & RECOMMENDATION Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, the Hearings Officer finds the applicant has met the burden of proof necessary to justify the request for a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendmentto re -designate the subject propertyfrom Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a corresponding request for a Zone Map Amendment (Zone Change) to reassign the zoning of the subject property from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The Deschutes County Board of Commissioners is the final local review body for the applications before the County. DCC 18.126.030. The Hearings Officer recommends approval of the applications based on this Decision of the Deschutes County Hearings Officer. 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 56 of 57 4" Stephanie Marshall, Deschutes County Hearings Officer Dated this _12th_ day of October, 2021 Mailed this 13th day of October, 2021 247-21-000400-PA/401-ZC Page 57 of 57 owner Central Oregon Irrigation District Tia M.

BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: On December 13, 2021, Oregon Health Authority (OHA) informed Deschutes County Health Services (DCHS) of the opportunity to request reimbursement for paid Crisis signing and retention payments through OHA's Behavioral Health Residential Workforce Stability Funding. The application, due on December 16t", was approved by OHA and awarded Deschutes County $46,000 for funds distributed to its Crisis workforce. Health Services requests approval to accept these funds. DCHS will provide approximately $140,000 in retention and hiring bonuses for critical Crisis Program staff as approved by the Board. DCHS applied dollars provided by the Central Oregon Health Council and made available through suspension of 2020 Quality Incentive Metric withholds in order to help communities respond to the impact of the COVID 19 pandemic. The OHA distribution will reimburse that fund, which will continue to ensure DCHS - Behavioral Health capacity to recover from pandemic impacts.

Bend, OR 97/0' 54 i..5d8-81 3 www. cc . ic.c ,r,, Memorandum To: Deschutes County Board of County Commissioners From: COIC Staff Date: January 24, 2022 Re: Small Business Recovery Grant Program Update The Program The purpose of this grant program is to help Deschutes County small businesses and non -profits recover from the negative economic impacts from the Covid-19 Pandemic. For this program, we are monetizing the economic impact of the pandemic, and comparing that to any Covid-19 related relief funding awards that businesses may have already received to determine if the business is still affected by long term economic impacts. The Process In the application we asked for each business' 2019 and 2020 tax returns, and a financial statement from 2021. From those documents we took their revenue and expense amounts and used them to populate the below sheet, which shows sample applications. After we find the business' annual net profit, we compare that year over year. If a business was negatively financially affected by the pandemic, it appears in their net change. After finding the net change from 2019 to 2020 and 2021, we take into account any Covid-19 related relief funding awards the businesses may have already received and find a net effect with awards. That is the maximum amount business can be eligible for. if a business has already had their losses covered by other award programs, then they are deemed not eligible for this award. 1 Example Business 2019 202019.20 Change 202119-21 Change Net Effect PPP EIDL Grants Unemployment Net Effect w/awards Determination Revenue $ 187438 $ 201,328 $ 13,890 $ SA6306-,'. $ 58,868 (8,678) EI'gihle Eapenses k $ 166,745 $ 20 ,676�$ 39971 $ 215170! $ 48,465 COIL Grant Net 5 20,733 5 (5,348) 5 (26,081) $ 31,136 $ 10,403 i $ (35,678)1 .._...._.___..____......

Notes Yes The Preliminary Findings This program received a total of 291 submissions. As of Friday, January 21, COIC had reviewed 100 of these submissions (with oversight from County staff). Of these, only 37 of these have been eligible for an award. The most common reason that applications have been found to be ineligible is that their revenue losses or cost increases have already been addressed by other award programs, such as example business 2.Of the 37 eligible applications, the total amount that they would qualify for as a whole is $3,665,000 —with only 1/3 of the total submissions reviewed. If the same trends continue, then the estimated qualifying amount would be approximately $10,000,000. Eligible award amounts per application range from $3,000 to just under $1,000,000. 23 of the eligible companies are under $100,000, and 6 are over $100,000 with two companies coming in at $600,000 and just under $1,000,000. Timeline This grant program opened on December 101h and ended on January 71h. We have been the review stage for a little over three weeks now, and have reviewed 100 businesses thus far. To review the remaining 191, if we continue at the same pace, we will have our review completed in late February. That is the soonest we could product a final report to the Board of County Commissioners. At that point is when we could inform each application that they have been selected for an award or not and begin processing awards. � snr��c�anttas�a+��r � �QnrA �pRwn�o American Recovery Plan Act Funding Request Oasis Village requests the Board of Commissioners reserve the $367,500 originally requested for its shelter village project subject to acquisition of or approval of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for suitable property. The original request assumed the use of mobile structures, shelters and amenities. An updated list of those expenditures, accounting for recent cost increases, is provided below. Recent discussions with the county have raised the possibility of a longer -term MOU. As a result, we are also exploring the option of housing camp amenities (in gray below) in a more permanent structure like those being used at Veteran's Village and St. Vincent's Village. The expense for both options, when maintenance is considered, is similar. We project an approximately 3,000 square foot unit at approximately $300,000. Costs for site prep, fencing, entry gate and lighting remain as outlined below. Initial Capital Expenses Site Prep and fencing $60,000 10 Shelter Units $110,000 Entry Gate $4,000 Lighting and security $7,000 TOTAL Initial Capital Expense $424,000 Oasis Village Updates: We have begun the work with Rogue Retreat, which you recently funded. As part of the process, we will be hosting site visits to their shelter facilities in and around Medford in the coming months. We invite the Commissioners to participate in these visits and will be happy to work with you to accommodate your schedules. With input from County staff, we are forming an advisory committee of community leaders and stakeholders to advise Oasis Village and the County on development of the village and the East Redmond project. • A large concern with the East Redmond site is bringing utilities across Highway 126. We have rough estimates of the cost from $150k (if trenching is allowed or the process occurs during planned resurfacing) to $350k plus (if tunnelling is required). We plan to ask the City of Redmond to bring utilities to the site with ARPA or Federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act funding. The utilities would also serve the planned Central Oregon Regional Emergency Services Training and Coordination Center, as well as adjacent COID land. We ask that you support that request. Thank you for this opportunity and your service to our community, For Oasis Village: Robert Bohac Chair Oasis Village MEETING DATE: January 26, 2022 SUBJECT: Discussion of Additional Funding and Staffing for Public Health COVID Unit Team RECOMENDED MOTION: No motion at this time. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: COVID-19 has proven to be both prolonged and unpredictable since declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. Health Services has proven itself flexible, adaptable, resourceful, and resilient. In fact, in recent days, Oregon Health Authority announced a significant shift from a strategy of containment towards those aimed at reducing severe illness and hospitalization, such as testing, vaccination, public education, treatment and outbreak control in congregate settings. To meet this, as well as support the ongoing nature and community demand for continued response and predictable recovery support, Health Services proposes establishing a standalone COVID-19 Response and Recovery Unit through June 2024. A draft of that future -state structure is as follows: fY£fS5'iup ( Maragement vn„x: n:a pf�ie llm ill euP_ ', AnoNst-1FFE IDlGIN; ("A/ 6—V 'IMP- 1—s kod------------ I loBlatl 1 FTE PuWI I ( t n� I IP leer �I Y � .. 5-1.1 M.di Gana tE tluy by W f-- Admin Svppart 1347E A:bL'/Ptlncx-.I FTE 1 Krivtr+� M.v:,li 9 FTC i Mara Mt'e IFTE Or M grr-.S FTC FTCt Emergency/ COVID49 Response & CNnkal Servocc.

The proposed structure does not obviate the need for ensuring elasticity in our response through recruitment of temporary staff and contractors, and the department is evaluating where it has identified gaps in support and services, and areas where it needs to continue to operate in a flexible manner. Health Services is gathering information on the requirement of temporary staff and contractors in expanding vaccination, testing, public education/ call center and wrap around services. We anticipate a financial ask in this regard in coming weeks. Moreover, we have compared our proposed structure with several counties, namely Benton, Umatilla, Clackamas and Lincoln and we are confident this core structure is benchmarked efficiently against others in Oregon. REQUEST APPROVAL OF 3.0 FTE AND ADDITIONAL FUNDING: To fulfill the proposed structure, Health Services requests 3.0 full-time equivalent (FTE) limited duration positions through June 30, 2024 to support the areas Public Health has identified as critical and ongoing needs. Those are: 1.0 FTE Public Health Manager (start date: 2.1.21 to 6.30.24) - to provide managerial oversight to the COVID-19 response and recovery efforts • 1.0 FTE Health Services Supervisor (3.1.21 - 6.30.24) - to lead the mandated outbreak response for consequential congregate settings and businesses • 1.0 FTE Project Coordinator (3.1.21 - 6.30.24) - to provide logistical support for testing and vaccine clinics and related vendors. • Reclassify Public Health Nurse II (Position #2811) to Health Services Supervisor and extend limited duration status from 6.30.23 to 6.30.24 - to lead the public information, customer support line and data management efforts The additional cost of the proposed positions is $1,055,559 as shown in the table below. 1.0 FTE Manager, Public Health (start 2.1.22) 59,859 150,520 161,471 371,850 1.0 FTE Supervisor, Health Services (start 3.1.22) 1.0 FTE Project Coordinator (start 3.1.22) Reclassify Public Health Nurse II to HS Supervisor TOTALEXPENSE Funding: OHA PE01-09 COVID Funds Funding: COHC COVID Funds TOTAL FUNDS AVAILABLE ADDITIONAL FUNDS REQUESTED 40,551 127,280 136,466 304,297 29,468 92,431 98,969 220,868 - 15,418 143,126 158,544 129,878 385,649 540,032 1,055,559 182,467 32,832 215.299 840,260 Of the $1,055,559 expense, the department has approximately $215,000 in unallocated COVID funds anticipated through vacancy savings. The department proposes to allocate these funds for this purpose. The remaining unfunded request is for $840,260 in American Rescue Plan Act funds or other identified resources to cover the positions. BUDGET IMPACTS: $1,055,559 of additional expense; request of $840,260 in funding, the addition of 3.0 FTE limited duration and reclassification Public Health Nurse II to Health Services Supervisor, extending its end date to June 30, 2024.

Treasury and Investments • The portfolio balance at the end of December was $289 million, a decrease of $10 million from November but an increase of $37 million from last year (December 2020) — most of the increase due to the receipt of $19 million in ARPA funds in May. For comparison purposes, the December 2020 balance is $11 million more than the December 2019 balance. • Net investment income for the month is $111,956, approximately $30,000 less than last month and $90,000 less than December 2020. YTD earnings of $764,741 are $570,000 less than the YTD earnings last year. • All portfolio category balances are within policy limits. • No change in the LGIP interest rate. Benchmark returns for 24 and 36 month treasuries are up again from the prior month by 21 and 16 basis points, respectively. • Average portfolio yield is 0.61% down from 0.62% last month. • The portfolio's weighted average time to maturity is at 1.61 years (compared to 1.46 last month).

By comparison, last year revenue YTD was $34.4 million and 92% of budget. The difference between the YTD revenue collections would be greater except for one-time, unbudgeted CARES Act funds received last year. Expenses YTD are $20.4 million and 47% of budget compared to $19.3 million and 49% of budget last year. Overall expenses are lower this year and represent a smaller portion of the budget this year due to unbudgeted CARES Act expenditures last year offset by an increase in the approved budget transfers this year which are made on a regular monthly basis.

RECOMMENDED MOTION: Consideration of upcoming Resolution temporary double fill Admin Support Technician 1.0 FTE. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: The new hire would be an early replacement for a long-time employee (19+ years). Melodie Kirk will be retiring at the end of August 2022. The double -fill duration is expected to be approximately four months and will expire when Melodie retires. The new hire will receive critical training opportunities if recruited immediately, with the most valuable training occurring during the May primary election cycle. Learning the intricacies of our processes takes some time. Each election cycle provides critical training opportunities that cannot be replicated during non -election time. After the May election, late June, the new employee will benefit from learning the processes that occur outside of an election cycle. The Secretary of State's (SOS) office is working with a vendor to replace its current voter registration system. This system is the backbone of each county's election operations. SOS and vendor training will occur in early 2022 and continue until the system goes live in February 2023. Having the new employee onsite during this transition will allow them to learn the current software and the processes and procedures we have in place before the transition. They will also benefit from attending the State -sponsored training firsthand. The elevated level of work presents an opportunity to hire an employee to learn election best practices from current, experienced employees. As identified in previous budgets, succession planning is a high priority as senior staff prepares for their retirement. Creating this double -fill position captures the experience and knowledge of senior staff while preserving the continuity of business services and workload. BUDGET IMPACTS: This temporary double -fill position will cost approximately $26,000 in salary and benefits for FY2022, funded by expected payroll savings in the Clerk's office. This temporary position will be eliminated in August 2022 when Melodie Kirk retires, and the department will not see any increase in expected payroll costs.

RECOMMENDED MOTION: Consideration of upcoming Resolution adding Admin Support Technician 1.0 FTE. BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS: This new Administrative Support Technician position would primarily support Elections. It would add critical continuity that does not currently exist with our Elections team. If recruited immediately, the new hire will receive approximately four months of training before a long-time employee (of 19+ years) retires. The most valuable training will occur during the May primary election cycle. Learning the intricacies of our processes takes some time.

Historic Staffing Levels (23 Year Average = 9.3) Elections The Clerk's Office has experienced a 50% increase in voter registration in the last six years. Fifty thousand additional voters translate to added work keeping the voter rolls up to date. Over the past five years, Deschutes County Clerk's Office — Elections have managed more registered voters with fewer full-time employees than other comparably sized Counties throughout the state. While this displays a great deal of efficiency in the operations of elections within our office, it also represents a great deal of risk as there is not much back-up or contingency with regular staff. The table below shows the number of registered voters per FTE in Deschutes County and comparable Oregon counties. County FY 2016/17 Reg Voters/FTE FY 2017/18 Reg Voters/FTE FY 2018/19 Reg Voters/FTE FY 2019/20 Reg Voters/FTE FY 2020/21 Reg Voters/FTE Deschutes 63,137 66,031 69,002 71,645 75,530 Clackamas 54,815 56,796 58,360 59,753 61,266 Jackson 48,103 59,642 63,635 64,879 69,173 Lane 49,433 50,234 43,224 43,779 36,039 Marion 37,606 39,386 40,525 41,781 43,098 Our voter registration numbers translate to a higher volume of work for our regular election staff. We expect the current volume of work to continue to grow. The elevated level of work presents an opportunity to hire an employee to learn election best practices from current, experienced employees. As identified in previous budgets, succession planning is a high priority as senior staff prepares for their retirement. Adding this position captures the experience and knowledge of senior staff while preserving the continuity of business services and workload. BUDGET IMPACTS: This new position will cost approximately $26,000 in salary and benefits for FY2022, funded by expected payroll savings in the Clerk's office. The additional salary and benefits for an added position in FY2023 are expected to be approximately $80,000.

BUDGET IMPACTS: None ATTENDANCE: Kyle Collins, Associate Planner MEMORANDUM TO: Deschutes County Board of Commissioners (Board) FROM: Kyle Collins, Associate Planner DATE: January 18, 2022 SUBJECT: Dave Swisher Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Zone Change - Work Session The Board of County Commissioners (Board) is conducting a work session on January 24, 2022 in preparation for a public hearing on February 2, 2022, to consider a request for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and Zone Change (file nos. 247-21-000616-PA, 617-ZC) for two (2) 40-acre properties located on Abbey Road, approximately 1.3 miles east of the City of Bend. 1. BACKGROUND The applicant, Dave Swisher, is requesting a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to re -designate the subject properties from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area and a Zoning Map Amendment to rezone the properties from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agricultural (MUA-10). The applicant's reasoning for the request is that the properties were mistakenly identified as farmland, do not contain high -value soils or other characteristics of high value farmland, and therefore should be re -designated and rezoned for residential use. The applicant has provided a supplementary soil study that identifies non -high value soils on a majority (-96%) of the subject properties. Additionally, the applicant has provided findings within the burden of proof that demonstrate compliance with state and local requirements and policies. 11. PUBLIC COMMENTS Staff received two (2) public comments from neighboring property owners and residents located within the surrounding area of the subject properties. These comments expressed concern and opposition related to growth management impacts, wildlife concerns, open space values, traffic impacts along Abbey Road and Butler Market Road, property value impacts, and impacts to irrigation water sources and availability. Additionally, staff received two (2) public comments from Central Oregon LanclWatch (COLW) and 1000 Friends of Oregon. These comments expressed concern and opposition regarding growth management impacts, loss of productive farmland and wildlife habitat, and the viability/accuracy of the supplementary soils report. III. HEARINGS OFFICER RECOMMENDATION The Deschutes County Hearings Officer held a public hearing on September 21, 2021. Two (2) individuals (Sue Conrad, a neighboring property owner, and Carol Macbeth, a representative of COLW) stated their opposition to the subject application and concerns regarding growth management, the perceived loss of productive farmland, the viability/accuracy of the supplementary soils report, wildlife habitat impacts, and traffic impacts along neighboring rights of way. On November 24, 2021, the Hearings Officer issued a recommendation of approval for the proposed Plan Amendment and Zone Change. IV. BOARD CONSIDERATION As the property includes lands designated for agricultural use, Deschutes County Code 22.28.030(C) requires the application to be heard de novo before the Board, regardless of the determination of the Hearings Officer. The record is available for inspection at the Planning Division and at the following link: https•//www deschutes org/cd/page/247-21-000616-pa617-zc-applicant-initiated-plan- amendment-and-zone-change. Moreover, the complete record will be available at the public hearing. V. NEXT STEPS The Board will hold a public hearing on February 2, 2022. Additionally, staff notes that the Board is currently reviewing another Plan Amendment and Zone Change application (file nos. 247-21-000400- PA, 401-ZC). The Board's final decision on this matter may have some effect on the Ordinance exhibits attached to this memo. Staff will make any necessary corrections to these materials prior to the upcoming public hearing. ATTACHMENTS: 1. Area Map 2.

Updated 12/7/2020 DESCHUTES TY ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY No® DRAFT EFFECTIVE DATE: TEED REMOTE WORK PROGRAM - **draft 1-19-22** A. STATEMENT OF POLICY Deschutes County is dedicated to its mission: Enhancing the lives of citizens by delivering quality services in a cost-effective manner. Deschutes County may implement its mission by allowing flexible work opportunities where appropriate. Flexible work opportunities may include a variety of options, including remote work. This policy provides departments a framework to implement remote work as a personnel management, recruitment and retention tool while ensuring employees performing remote work maintain or increase performance standards and service levels. Individual departments (upon the recommendation of the department head and the approval of the County Administrator) or offices of elected officials may opt out of this policy. B. PURPOSE This policy contains guidelines and requirements for Deschutes County's Remote Work Program. The requirements apply only to employees in departments participating in the Remote Work Program and are intended to: • Meet productivity expectations. • Reduce office space, facility, parking, and related needs and expenses. • Provide flexible work opportunities. • Decrease traffic congestion and impacts on County infrastructure. • Serve as a benefit to the department and the population served. • Not serve as an employee guaranteed benefit or right. C. DEFINITIONS 1. Remote Work -a work flexibility arrangement under which an employee performs the duties and responsibilities of their position, and other authorized activities, from an approved worksite other than the location from which the employee would otherwise work. a. Hybrid Work - when an employee is performing work from both on -site and remotely from an approved worksite other than the regular assigned work location for the position. b. Fully Remote Work - when an employee is performing more than 75% of their work from an approved (non -County) worksite other than the regularly assigned work location for the position. If working under this category, the employee's primary work location becomes a non -County location. 11Page D. RESPONSIBILITY Employees who work remotely are responsible for adhering to all expectations outlined below. Supervisors are responsible for determining whether an employee is eligible to participate based on criteria outlined in this policy. Further, supervisors are responsible for implementing this policy consistently and with robust oversight and accountability, including monitoring remote work effectiveness and measuring performance. E. LOCATION OF REMOTE WORK AND IMPACT ON COMMUTE/TRAVEL For a fully remote employee, the employee's primary work location changes (and will likely be their residence). As a result, fully remote work is only allowed if the employee's remote work location is located in Central Oregon (unless approved in advance by the County Administrator - see section 2 below). 1. Remote work options from within Central Oregon a. Hybrid remote work does not change the employee's assigned County work location. Travel time from the employee's remote work location to their assigned County location will be considered commute time and not compensated by the County. b. Fully remote work - changes the employee's assigned work location. When business needs require the employee to work from or report to another location, the employee must be compensated for travel time in accordance with FLSA - in general, this means that travel time to and from their assigned work location (which will likely be their residence) as a part of their regular work duties is considered work time unless the travel is outside the employee's regular schedule. Deschutes County will follow the State of Oregon "Compensable Travel Time While Working Remotely" guidelines. Travel time during regularly scheduled work hours is considered work time and may also include mileage reimbursement (or the use of a County vehicle). Therefore, when required to come into the County workplace to perform work, the employee shall make every effort to travel to the County workplace during non-scheduled work time. 2. Remote work from outside Central Oregon is eligible under the following conditions: a. It is temporary (a maximum of 14 days per occurrence) and approved by the Department Director. b. Special circumstances requiring a duration longer than 14 days must be approved in advance by the County Administrator. c. Remote work from outside Central Oregon shall never result in the employee's work location becoming a location outside Central Oregon unless explicitly approved in advance by the County Administrator. Establishing a work location outside Central Oregon would result in complications with paying the employee for travel time when coming to a County office/facility. 2 1 P a g e The requirements in this section are intended to prevent an employee working outside the State of Oregon becoming an employee of another state. Deschutes County is not set up to be a multi -state employer. d. The decision and approval will be based on the employee's work duties, whether they can be satisfactorily fulfilled at that distance, and any impact on clients/customers. e. In general, additional costs incurred for the employee to work remote is the responsibility of the employee. F. ELIGIBILITY Not all positions are suited for participation in the program, such as customer facing positions. If the employee is sick and unable to function at full productivity, remote work is not permissible and is not a substitute for using Time Management Leave or Sick Leave. Employees may be eligible to participate in the program based on criteria outlined below. Participation in this program is at the County's sole discretion and may be modified or revoked at any time. Employees must meet all the following to be eligible for participation in the program, unless granted an exception by the Department Director after consultation with H R: 1. Duties must be completed as efficiently, or more efficiently, than at the primary onsite location. 2. Participation must not lower the level of service delivery for the participant's work unit, including taking into account the impact on teamwork and morale. 3. The employee must have adequate job knowledge to work independently or remotely. 4. An overall rating of "Meets Expectations" or higher on most recent evaluation, if applicable. 5. No formal discipline within the last 12 months (written reprimand or higher). Potential remote work situations that require careful review: 1. If an employee has a mild illness (for example, a mild cold or mild cough) or is recovering from a short-term medical condition, and is still able to work at full capacity, remote work is an option. 2. Remote work is not a substitute for childcare or other dependent/family care. Employees shall make or maintain childcare arrangements to permit concentration on work assignments. However, in limited situations, remote work may be approved to allow the employee to be at home with a sick child or to allow for dependent/family care, such as: a. The child or dependent/family member under care needs little or no direct care. The purpose of the employee working remotely is for the employee to be able to respond to an unlikely emergency event 3 1 P a g e (examples: a dependent care arrangement where the employee works remotely to attend to an emergency situation should it arise, a child is recovering from a surgery and is sleeping most of the time, an older child is sick but does not require much direct care). b. The employee will only record and report time worked. There is another care giver at home. While performing remote work, the employee is expected to devote the same degree of time and attention to work as when the employee is at their County worksite. Meeting the above criteria does not guarantee approval for participation; final approval is subject to supervisor/manager discretion. Depending on the criteria in this policy, an employee may be determined to be: 1. Eligible for remote work on a part-time basis or intermittently. 2. Eligible for remote work on a regular schedule. 3. Not eligible for remote work. G. REMOTE WORK EXPECTATIONS AND ENVIRONMENT While performing remote work, the employee must adhere to the following expectations: 1. Continue working their regular set schedule unless the employee receives supervisory approval to change their schedule. 2. Seamlessly and completely be accessible via standard County phone and email systems during working hours. 3. The employee takes full responsibility for the technology required to complete their job remotely. If the technology does not work, the employee will be required to fix the problem without any loss of work time, or take TML or other available leave for any time loss associated with the remote technology barrier. 4. The employee will be required to use TML or other approved leave if the employee is otherwise unable to perform their job from a remote location. Participants must have an adequate work environment that: 1. is free from distractions. 2. Has adequate office furniture and office equipment provided by the employee. 3. Contains a secure, reliable internet connection with sufficient bandwidth to perform duties at the employee's cost. 4. Provides adequate auditory confidentiality if work requires it. 5. Is maintained in a safe condition, free from hazards to employee and equipment. 4 1 P a g e 6. If needed, is modified to meet work safety requirements, (i.e., if modified workstation is required at the primary worksite, remote working environment should be similarly modified). 7. Meets the ergonomic needs of the employee. In general, the participant will be responsible for most/all costs associated with meeting the above requirements, including setup of designated workspace, as well as ongoing costs related to connectivity, printing, scanning, and/or other equipment necessary. There may be special situations where a department allows the employee to use County furniture/property for remote work. If significant county -funded supplies are required to perform work duties, such as a specialized scanner, this would constitute a need for the employee to perform those duties on -site. Employee understands that all equipment, records, and materials provided by the County shall remain the property of the County. County -owned equipment and software shall be used exclusively by the employee and for the purpose of conducting County business. Software shall not be duplicated. Employee agrees to report to employee's supervisor any incidents of loss, damage, or unauthorized access as soon as possible. H. INFORMATION SECURITY Employee agrees to protect County -owned equipment, records, and materials from unauthorized or accidental access, use, modification, destruction, or disclosure. This includes protecting equipment when traveling to/from County facilities. The precautions described in this agreement apply regardless of the storage media on which information is maintained, the locations where the information is stored, the systems used to process the information, or the process by which the information is stored. Participants will be held accountable for securing information by taking measures to safeguard information in accordance with confidentiality, HIPAA and privacy rules. At all times, employees shall adhere to all provisions of Administrative Policy No. IT-1, "Computer, E-mail and Mobile Computing Device Use." I. PROCESS AND EVALUATION Supervisors are responsible to ensure that an employee performing remote work has clear and documented productivity expectations and that the employee is meeting these expectations. Supervisors may require additional actions by employee to verify work time. Here are factors a supervisor may consider to help determine appropriate amount/frequency of remote time: 1. Quantify tasks that are appropriate for remote work, and consider frequency and distribution (e.g. half a day once a week compared to a full day every other week). 5 1 P a g e 2. Impact on clients and customers. 3. Availability to attend meetings in -person (e.g. if most meetings are Tuesday/Wednesdays, schedule Thursdays as a remote day). Clearly communicate to staff that regularly scheduled remote time may be "bumped" if a need for an in -person meeting arises. 4. Impact on internal/external partners: feedback from others will inform whether the amount of time is working well (e.g., if feedback is received that the person is less available for consult or lacking timely follow up, remote time may be decreased, redistributed, or eliminated). 5. Adjustments depending on workload (e.g. a decrease in independent tasks may result in decreasing remote time; a special project with a hard deadline that necessitates independent concentration may result in approval of additional remote time). K. PROGRAM AGREEMENT Upon approval based on the criteria contained in this policy, staff will enter into a Remote Work Program Agreement (attached - HR WILL DEVELOP AFTER THE POLICY IS APPROVED). The agreement will be signed by the employee, supervisor, and department director. Remote work may be on an as -needed basis, or regularly scheduled. The agreement will include: 1. Time period approved for remote work (frequency and duration, including an end date of no more than one year, noting that it may be reviewed throughout the period and may be terminated at the County's sole discretion). 2. Type of remote work. 3. The specific site(s) approved for remote work. The standard approval process is for remote work sites within Central Oregon. 4. A statement that the duties, obligations, and responsibilities of the participant's employment with the County remain unchanged. 5. An explanation how the remote work arrangement will affect the operations and impact the employee's productivity. 6. An explanation on how productivity will be measured/reported and how the employee will be available to supervisors, co-workers and customers. 7. A statement that the participant's salary, benefits, retirement, and County - sponsored insurance remain unchanged. 8. A statement that participants remain obligated to comply with all County, State, and Federal laws and rules, and policies, including the County's Code of Ethics and the Fair Labor Standards Act. 9. A statement that the violation of any of the above or the misuse of County time, data, or equipment may result in disciplinary action. 6 1 P a g e 10.
