and Wickiup Junction. Future growth for
the South County that would otherwise
occur in existing subdivision lots in the
surrounding area could be redirected to the
new neighborhood.
The means to accomplish this change in the
pattern of growth is through a transferable
development credit (TDC) program that
allows the owners of vacant lots to choose
whether to build on their property or sell
their "rights" to develop. A market will be
created for these rights because of the
requirement for TDCs to build in the new
neighborhood, now known as the
Neighborhood Planning Area in the La
Pine UUC.
In August 2000 the La Pine WC boundary
was expanded to include the following
additional areas to implement the RPS

Property. The Neighborhood Planning

identified as Tract 38 and 53 acres of the
Baldwin -Herndon Oregon Trust property.
The Wickiup Junction Planning Area is
identical to the former Wickiup Junction
RSC. The La Pine UUC and the three
planning areas are shown on Figure 1.
The Neighborhood Planning Area will be
developed with residential uses, including
single-family and multi -family dwellings, a
limited amount of commercial uses, a
school, senior assisted living facilities and
other community/civic uses, and open
space and parks.
The 13 acres of Baldwin -Herndon Oregon
Trust property, between Huntington and
Couch Roads near the La Pine High
School, was added to the La Pine Planning
Area for future community uses, such as a
pool, performing arts center and
community education facilities. The need
for these types of facilities was identified in
design workshops held in 1998 as part of
the Deschutes County Regional Problem
Solving planning program and reaffirmed
in a subsequent workshop conducted by the
La Pine Community Action Team in April
2000. —A new plan designation,
"Community Facility", was created to
include this property and the adjacent land
that consists of the existing school site.
This site was formerly designated as
"Residential" in the La Pine Planning Area.

The Neighborhood Planning Area contains four
Neighborhoods. Each neighborhood is divided
into four Quadrants. See the Quadrant Plan,
Faure 11, for the generalized boundaries of the
Neighborhoods and Quadrants. The
Neighborhood Planning Area has plan
designations-- Residential, Community Facility,
Commercial and Park/Open Space (see Figure 9),
and six --seven zoning districts-- Residential
General, Residential Center, Community Facility,
Community Facility Limited, Neighborhood
Commercial, api&Neighborhood Parks and Open
Space (see Figure 10).
Plan policies and zoning standards were adopted
in August 2000 and amended in September of
2001 to ensure that the Neighborhood Planning
Area develops in accordance with the overall
neighborhood plan and design documents
produced for the Regional Problem Solving
Project. '-`Ceomprehensive plan and
zoning maps were also adopted to help guide
future planning and development in this
planning area. In 2001 the County amended the
Comprehensive Plan to refine the plan
designations and adopt a quadrant planning
process to allow flexibility in phased
development in the four Neighborhoods. The
boundaries of the plan designations and zoning
area districts in the Neighborhood Planning Area
may be adjusted during future refinements of the
master plan for the entire planning area or when
specific areas are addressed with r-efinemen
Quadrant pPlans during the subdivision plat
process. The boundaries -:F41— 41— ,1,leig .b,...hee
dashed -lines- to the Zoning Districts are
generalized locations that will be finalized
during the Quadrant Plan approval process
according to performance standards in the
Neighborhood Planning Area zoning code and
the policies in the this Plan.
The plan policies and zoning standards adopted in
August 2000 and amended in 2001 are also
intended to ensure that residential development in
the Neighborhood Planning Area will include
mixed housing types, provide affordable housing
opportunities and require participation in a
Transferable Development Credit Program. his
4. Land use inventory.
The inventory information listed below
is from the Deschutes County Assessor's Office
data and the land use projections for the
Neighborhood Planning Area compiled by the
County GIS Service Center in July 2000 and is
based on design work completed for Regional
Problem Solving. The Neighborhood Planning
Area acreages are guidelines for future
development in this planning area_4hat--�
The final
acreages will be determined when Quadrant
Plans are approved for each of the four
Neighborhoods in the planning area. Quadrant
Plans will be required prior to any development
in the Neighborhood Planning Area.

From 1995 through 1999, building
permits, vacant lot sales and real estate
sales of improved lots increased. Growth
in the La Pine UUC and surrounding
rural area was similar to growth
experienced in the remainder of
Deschutes County for this time period.
This trend is expected to continue.
B. La Pine Community Public Facility Plan.
1. Introduction.
The public facilities plan describes the
water, sewer and transportation systems
that are needed to support the land uses
designated in the planning areas in the La
Pine Urban Unincorporated Community.
The facilities plan includes:
a. An inventory of the condition and
capacity of existing facilities;
b. An assessment of the level of
facilities and services needed to
adequately serve the planned build
out within the community area
boundary, including references to
policies at the end of this chapter
applicable to the future needs for
facilities; and
c. Coordination agreements with the
special districts that operate and
maintain facilities consistent with
ORS Chapter 195.
This Community Facility plan is based
extensively upon the La Pine Facilities
Plan for the La Pine Special Sewer
District (June 1985), the La Pine Special
Sewer District Annexation Study (1991)
and the La Pine/Wickiup Junction Local
Street, Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan
(1999). These documents are
incorporated by reference as part of this
community facility plan document. It is
not the intent of this document to
duplicate previously developed materials.
Rather, it will serve as a summary of
public facilities improvements
anticipated by the community of La Pine.
A Water and Wastewater Feasibility
Study for: New Neighborhood and Cagle
Subdivision (April 1999) determined that
there is capacity in the water and
wastewater systems to serve the initial
phases of development in the
Neighborhood Planning Area. The report
analyzed the overall system needs and
determined the timing of improvements
to the water and wastewater systems that
would be needed during the development
of subsequent phases in the
Neighborhood Planning Area. The
County contracted with a consultant to
prepare a more detailed Capital Facilities
Plan in 2000 for the water and
wastewater systems as a result of the
addition of the Neighborhood and
Wickiup Junction Planning Areas to the
WC. This revision will update the
capacity of these systems,
evaluate/compare existing and new
technological alternatives to provide
capacity at build out, develop
improvement plans, develop a
methodology for computing rates, hook
up fees and potential systems
development charges (SDCs), and
analyze financing options for
constructing, operating and maintaining
improvements. A plan policy was
adopted in 2000 that requires the capital
facilities plan be completed before
building permits are issued or the tracts

capital facilities plan to be completed
in 2000 will analyze in detail the
capacity of the water and wastewater
systems and alternative methods to
improve these systems to meet the
needs of the community at build out.
Rate structures, financing and the
methodology for collecting system
development charges (Sacs) will be
part of this study. A plan policy has
been adopted that requires this plan
to be completed before the County
can sell tracts of land or issue
building permits for development in
the Neighborhood Planning area.
In 1995 development of a municipal
water system was determined to be
necessary to provide long-term
assurance to the community that
there will be an abundant supply of
quality drinking water. The La Pine
Water District was formed in 1997.
The District acquired a private well
in 1999 with assistance from the
County. Detailed engineering work
should be completed in 2000 and
pipeline construction is anticipated to
occur in 2001. The capital facilities
plan to be completed in 2000 will
determine future expansion needs to
meet the water needs of the entire
UUC at build out.
Transportation.
As a rural community located on a
major highway, the La Pine UUC
requires a transportation system that
will accommodate local, commuter,
regional, and interstate traffic. The
local transportation system needs to
balance the needs of through traffic
with impacts on the community's
livability and rural character.
Accomplishing this goal requires
integrated street, bicycle and
pedestrian networks, appropriate
street standards, safe access to
Highway 97, and safe vehicular,
bicycle, and pedestrian crossing of
Highway 97.
1. Highway 97 Corridor.
Highway 97 is the primary
transportation element of the
community. Highway 97 is
Central Oregon's major north -
south facility for transport of
people and cargo, therefore, it is
important that efficient
movement through the La Pine
and Wickiup Junction Planning
Areas is maintained. Aside from
being the primary route for
transportation through these
planning areas, Highway 97 is
the center of commercial
development, and the primary
access for local residential and
industrial users. While . the
importance of Highway 97
cannot be underestimated, it also
bisects each community creating
a barrier between the east and
west sides.
People have a need to move
throughout the communities.
Currently, Highway 97 restricts
safe and efficient east -west
movement. The Deschutes
County Transportation System
Plan (TSP) identified that in
unincorporated communities
such as the La Pine UUC, traffic
calming and pedestrian safety on
Highway 97 are more important
than through traffic movement.
Through technical review and
public input conducted in the
TSP planning process, the
following key Highway 97
issues have been identified:
i. Vehicular, bicycle, and
pedestrian movement across
Highway 97 is unsafe and
difficult;
ii. There is a community sense of
excessive speeding on Highway

are appropriate on the local

for bicycle/pedestrian multi -use

transportation recommendations.

Walkway. Local streets in rural
areas typically have low traffic
volumes and therefore, are able
to safely accommodate
pedestrians, similar to the shared
bikeway. On collector and
arterial roads with higher traffic
volumes it is appropriate to
provide pedestrian facilities, i.e.
sidewalks or paths separated
from the traffic. Where not
provided on collectors and
arterials, paved shoulders should
be wide enough to accommodate
both pedestrians and bicyclists.
As stated in the Deschutes
County TSP, moving pedestrians
across arterial roads may be
more important than pedestrian
travel along roads. It is
important to provide safe
pedestrian crossings and ensure
that motorists are well aware of
pedestrians crossing roads. The
number of at -grade crossings
needs to be considered.
Pedestrian crossings where no
traffic signal exists can provide a
false sense of security.
It is important to provide
pedestrian facilities for a range
of users. Within a community,
pedestrian connections are
needed from residential areas to
schools, parks, and commercial
areas. Pedestrian facilities need
to connect commercial areas to
and from parking.
8. Public tTransportation sSystem.
There is interest in increasing
public transportation services
between La Pine/Wickiup
Junction and Bend. Currently
there is a Dial -A -Ride provider
that serves La Pine, and a
rideshare facility located at the
northwest corner of Highway 97
and Burgess Road in Wickiup
Junction. There is the potential
for a County -established rural
transit district, which could
provide fixed -route shuttle
services between communities,
i.e. La Pine and Bend.
i. Rail transportation. The
Burlington Northern & Santa Fe
Railroad provides significant
transportation of freight through
Central Oregon, including the
segment through La Pine and
Wickiup Junction. Railroad
conflicts with other modes of
transportation need to be
minimized. Currently the only
remaining at -grade railroad
crossing of Highway 97 in
Oregon is at the south end of the
Wickiup Junction Planning Area
near Burgess Road. Critical to
the success of the eventual
bypass and the function of the
local street network, will be the
continued operation of the
existing at -grade railroad
crossing. The County will work
towards keeping this crossing
Page 37 of 574&747 EXHIBIT "A" TO ORDINANCE 2001-036 37
Deschutes County Comprehensive Plan
open as a local road connecting
the Neighborhood and Wickiup
Planning Areas after the
separated grade and highway
relocation improvements are
completed.
4. Coordination #A_greements eConsistent
with ORS 195.
The Environmental Quality Commission
adopted a groundwater protection rule for
the Deschutes Basin Water Quality
Management Plan in June 1983. This
rule states that the wastewater generated
within the core area of the community of
La Pine shall be collected, treated and
disposed of in a manner, which prevents
pollution of the groundwater by not later
than January 1, 1987.
The La Pine Special Sewer District
Board of Directors approved a resolution
on May 23, 1985 adopting final
alternatives for the collection, treatment
and disposal of sewage for the La Pine
Core area.
5. Memorandatmr of Understandings.
As part of Regional Problem Solving the
County entered into a separate
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
in 2000 with the La Pine Water District
and the La Pine Special Sewer District.
The MOUS state that the County and the
districts recognize that the collaborative
work done under Regional Problem
Solving will continue so that water and
wastewater systems will be expanded in
an efficient manner to serve the entire La
Pine UUC at build out.
A similar MOU recognizes that the
County and the Bend -La Pine School
District will cooperate on the planning of
a new school site that is in compliance
with the District's facilities plan. An
additional MOU between the County and
the La Pine Rural Fire Protection District
establishes that fire suppression and
prevention will be addressed in a
cooperative fashion in the planning and
design of the Neighborhood Planning
Area.
C. La Pine Urban Unincorporated Community

In December of 2000, the Deschutes County Board of County Commissioners adopted
Ordinances 2000-013, 2000-014, 2000-015 and 2000-016 that implemented the Regional
Problem Solving Program for South Deschutes County. These ordinances expanded the
boundary of the La Pine Urban Unincorporated Community to allow inclusion of the
Neighborhood Planning Area and Wickiup Junction. The ordinances also adopted
comprehensive plan policies, map designations and zoning regulations to implement elements
of the Regional Problem Solving Project. The ordinances created a La Pine Neighborhood
Planning Area on land acquired from the Bureau of Land Management. The La Pine
Neighborhood Planning Area was established to be the receiving area for transferred
development credits from areas with in the Regional Problem Solving Study Area. The
comprehensive plan policies adopted in 2000, required the County to continue working on the
Regional Problem Solving Project including public facilities planning, refining the Neighborhood
Planning Area zoning and setting up a transferable development credit program. The proposed
ordinances are a result of work to refine the zoning and comprehensive plan as required by the
adopted comprehensive plan policies for the La Pine Neighborhood Planning Area.
The Deschutes County Planning Commission held the following work sessions and public
hearing regarding the proposed amendments:
• April 26, 2001 Work Session
• May 31, 2001 Public Hearing in La Pine on Files TA -01-03 and PA -01-03
• June 14, 2001 Continuation of Public Hearing
• June 28, 2001 Work Session and Recommendation to Board of County Commissioners.
CDD Files PA -01-03 and ZC-01-03 contain the minutes, planning commission packets for the
meetings listed above and the records of the required legal notices to the public and affected
agencies. An issue the Planning Commission and the public were concerned about was the

availability of land and individual lots for homeowners or small homebuilder to build in the
Neighborhood Planning Area. A memo summarizing the Planning Commission's
recommendations to the Board regarding issues not directly related to the specific provisions of
the proposed ordinances is attached to this staff report.
In addition, the Community Development Department staff conducted two meetings with a group
of advisors from the local land development, real estate and appraisal community. The purpose
of the discussions with the advisory committee was to have the experienced land developers
assess the alternatives for planning, zoning, development and sale of the land in the
Neighborhood Planning Area. The group provided advice that has been incorporated into the
zoning standards and plan policies for development of the La Pine Neighborhood Planning
Area. The staff also held a meeting with the La Pine Community Action Team to review the
draft text and map amendments prior to the Planning Commission public hearing.
The following summarizes the changes to the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance and
Subdivision Ordinance that will be adopted with approval of the subject ordinances.

RE: Recommendation of Planning Commission to Board of County
Commissioners on La Pine Neighborhood Planning Area
On June 28, 2001 the Planning Commission reviewed and discussed the proposed
comprehensive plan map and text amendment (PA -01-3), zoning text and map amendment (ZC-
01-3) for the La Pine Unincorporated Community Neighborhood Planning Area. They
recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve the amendments as proposed.
In addition to recommending approval of the zoning and comprehensive plan map and
comprehensive plan and zoning text amendments, the Planning Commission wanted the Board to
consider the Commission's recommendations on issues related to the development and
marketing of the Neighborhood Planning Area. Staff has summarized the Planning Commission
consensus on these issues below.
LAND MARKETING AND DEVELOPMENT
The Planning Commission recommends that the first phase be in the northwest quadrant of
Neighborhood 1 or the southwest quadrant of Neighborhood 2. A phasing plan map is attached
for your review. The first phase of the development is important because it will set the tone for
the project, test the market for the product and establish the market for the transferable
development credits (TDCs). The Commission thinks it is important for the County to retain
some control of the development process prior to selling the land.
The Planning Commission recommends that the County partner with a developer in the creation
of the quadrant plan for the first phase. A partnership will allow the developer and the county to
negotiate agreements on responsibility for infrastructure development, phasing, transferable
development credit redemption, set asides for local builders, design guidelines, etc., prior to
actual sale of the land. A partnership with a developer will also allow the county to assume some
of the risk that is associated with the development of the project. The increased risk is due to the
untested market, the TDC program and the infrastructure improvements. Reducing the risk is
important for marketing the property and moving forward with the redemption of TDCs. A

partnership with a qualified developer and the county is an approach recommended by the
Development Advisory Group and Lee Smith, consultant on the project.
The Planning Commission recommends that the Board consider issuing a request for proposal to
identify a qualified developer who would:
• Prepare a conceptual development plan for the first quadrant. The plan would
include the mix of uses, lot sizes, street layout parks, pathways, and open space.
• Prepare development standards (types of product, price ranges, standards for
landscaping and design).
• Prepare a preliminary feasibility analysis showing estimated costs and potential
revenues from lot sales. Prepare cash flow analysis showing cost revenue gap
that will need to be covered until breakeven point is reached. The costs that are
not typical for this project include TDCs and extending infrastructure and
increasing capacity.
• Propose a funding mechanism for construction and maintenance of parks and
open space.
• Prepare a proposed joint venture arrangement that shows the County's
contributions to the project that will work to reduce the developer's risk.
• Develop a marketing plan for lots that will assure that a variety of builders are
provided an opportunity to participate in developing some lots.
DESIGN GUIDELINES
The Planning Commission heard community concern at the public hearing about the appearance
of the residential areas in the new neighborhood. The public expressed a fear of cookie cutter
homes and "tract" housing. The public and the Planning Commission want to assure that there
will be a diversity of housing types and styles and quality building materials. Therefore, the
Planning Commission strongly supports the development of design guidelines for the La Pine
Neighborhood Planning Area. The commission believes that a developer with experience is the
appropriate entity to propose design guidelines. They recommend that the guidelines be
developed as part of the quadrant plan for the first phase. These guidelines will require approval
as part of the quadrant plan. The public will be able to review the guidelines and comment at the
public hearing. Prior to applying for a building permit, the developer (or some entity proposed
by the developer and County) will be responsible for reviewing building plans to assure that they
conform to the design guidelines.
The Commission also heard public concern about a big developer constructing all of the homes
and not allowing any lots for the local small-scale builders or owner/builder. The Planning
Commission supports creation of a mechanism to assure that a proportion of the lots will be
available for independent builders or owners. The availability of lots to a variety of builders will
also assure that the homes are not all alike.
