This is an opportunity for commissioners to discuss land use issues that interest them. The following topics

discussion of any others that may be of importance.
Comprehensive Plan Update
Deschutes County initiated an update to its Comprehensive Plan. This
update, Deschutes County 2040, provides overarching policy guidance on
land use and planning related issues for the years 2020-2040. The document
applies to areas under County planning jurisdiction, excluding cities and
federally owned land. Topics covered include housing, recreation, jobs,
natural hazards, community engagement, farm and forest lands, historic and
cultural resources, and natural resources.

Transportation System Plan Update
The Road Department funded an update of the Deschutes County
Transportation System Plan (TSP) to 2040, which deals with arterials,
collectors, bicycles, pedestrians, transit, and freight movements among
other topics. The County is requesting a Plan Amendment and Text
Amendment to update the 2010-2030 TSP and accompanying map to 2040.
The 2020-2040 TSP will provide new traffic volumes and prioritize
improvement projects including but not limited to: motor vehicles, bicycles,
and pedestrians; new goals and policies; and resetting the functional
reclassifications of selected County roads.

A draft of the 2020-2040 TSP has been released for public review. The Planning Commission will deliberate

Tumalo Community Plan 2020-2040
CDD initiated an update to the Tumalo Community Plan (TCP) to guide
development, capital improvements, and land use planning for a 20-year
period from 2020-2040. The TCP sets an overall vision along with goals
and policies regarding land use, transportation, and infrastructure in the
unincorporated community of Tumalo. A draft of the 2020-2040 TCP
has been released for public review. The Planning Commission will
deliberate on this matter on October 12 at 5:30 pm. More information
can be found at the project hearing website:

Wildfire Mapping / SB 762 & SB 80
In 2022, the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) and Oregon State
University developed administrative rules and a statewide wildfire risk map
required under Senate Bill (SB) 762. The rules, adopted by the Board of
Forestry, established the criteria by which the map was developed,
updated, and maintained. The map also showed what properties in Oregon
fall within the wildland-urban interface (WUI), as defined by the Board of
Forestry in rule in 2021. The initial draft of the wildfire risk map was
released on June 30, 2022.

However, on August 4, 2022, the draft wildfire risk map was temporarily withdrawn for further refinement.
SB 80, passed in the 2023 Oregon legislative session, outlines changes that ODF is required to make to the
map before it goes public again. ODF and the Association of Oregon Counties hosted a Wildfire Hazard Map
meeting for District 2 which includes Deschutes County on Thursday, September 21 in Klamath Falls. Public
meetings are expected later in the fall and/or winter.
Recreational Vehicles / SB 1013
The Oregon Legislature adopted SB 1013 into law on July 23, 2023; the law becomes effective January 1,
2024. SB 1013 authorizes a county to allow an owner of a lot or parcel in a rural area to site on the property
one recreational vehicle (RV) that is used for residential purposes and is subject to a residential rental
agreement and certain development standards. SB 1013 does not obligate a county to allow RVs as
residential tenancies. SB 1013 shares some criteria with recent rural Accessory Dwelling Unit legislation in SB
391, such as the requirement to provide sewage disposal, and differs in other ways —for instance, no fire
hardening requirements are written into SB 1013, nor is there a minimum acreage. The Planning
Commission will hold a public hearing to consider adopting SB 1013 into County Code on November 9. A
project hearing website is forthcoming.
Clear and Objective Standards for Residential Development / HB 3197
The Oregon Legislature recently enacted House Bill (HB) 3197 into law. It requires counties to adopt and
apply clear and objective standards, conditions, and procedures regulating housing in unincorporated
communities, Rural Residential Exception Areas, and nonresource lands. It has a two-year effective date of
July 1, 2025. This month LUU received a Department UI LdIIU Conservation and Development grant to
develop and implement a multi -phased and likely multi -year work program to comply. This law requires
amending definitions, land division code, five rural residential zones, Sunriver Urban Unincorporated
Community zones, Tumalo and Terrebonne Rural Community zones, Flood Plain Zone, and Landscape
Management, Sensitive Bird and Mammal, and Wildlife Area Combining Zones, with detailed findings,
including those relating to Goal 5.
D. Other Board / Planning Commission Coordination Issues
Additional issues may be discussed by commissioners during the work session that do not directly relate to
CDD's FY 2023-24 work plan.
