Minutes of Board of Commissioner's Business Meeting Monday, March 24, 2008 Page 1 of 4 Pages 3. Before the Board was a Public Hearing on Ordinance No. 2008-014, Regarding "Farm Stand" as a Permitted Use within the Urban Area Reserve Zone. Will Groves read the preliminary statement at this time. (See attached marked as Exhibit A.) In regard to conflicts of interest, bias or prejudgment, none of the Commissioners had any to disclose and no challenges were noted from the public. Mr. Groves read the background and staff report. (See attached marked as Exhibit B.) Commissioner Luke asked what the set back is. Mr. Groves said the set back is a minimum of 50 feet from the street right of way line. Commissioner Luke asked if the ordinance will be County wide, if through the approval process there will be questions about access to County roads, and if the Road Department gets a chance to comment on any application. Mr. Groves said they will go through standard site plan reviews and there will be required access permits for the road, if they are not already granted. There will be a traffic impact study done and the Road Department and the Transportation Planner will both comment as part of the site plan review process. Commissioner Luke opened the hearing at this time. Stephanie Hicks said she is with Ball Janik LLP and is here representing the applicant, Christen Brown. She said Will Groves had gone through everything quite accurately as far as the history of where they have been on the application, the process through which this has evolved, and the reasons for the additional criteria for the permitted outright and CUP process. Because it seemed like there were not many questions, the bulk of her testimony before the Planning Commission was to go through why the site plan review was appropriate because it is similar a to conditional use permit review. Commissioner Luke said there was no opposition, the Planning Commission spent the time on this, and staff has reviewed it. Minutes of Board of Commissioner's Business Meeting Monday, March 24, 2008 Page 2 of 4 Pages Christian Brown (applicant) said this process started with an administrative decision but it was withdrawn because Planner Harrison asked them to draft language that would not only apply to his parcel but that would be County wide. That is the reason for the extended process and the long language. He stated Commissioner Luke's comment on the access being problematic is correct. They have already had discussions with the Road Department to make sure the issues can be addressed and have already reached a conclusion on how to solve it. Commissioner Daly asked if there was a minimum ten acre requirement as he has five acres in Redmond. Mr. Brown said with out a conditional use permit, to have an outright permitted use, you need to have at least ten acres of UAR. Ms. Hicks stated even with a ten acre lot, you would have to meet all the criteria. If someone wanted a farm stand on smaller than ten acres, they would have to apply for a conditional use permit and the parcel would have to be in a UAR zone as well as other criteria. Catherine Morrow said the text amendment applies to the UAR 10 zone around Bend only. It is Title 19 and no one has come forward from Redmond and asked that they be included. If someone in Redmond wanted to change the text and it is not on the work plan, they would have to make an application unless the Board requested that it be put on the work plan. Commissioner Daly thought the whole purpose of the process was to make it County wide rather than just a small area. Ms. Morrow said it makes it apply to the entire UAR 10 zone in Bend. The section of the Code that applies to Redmond is in a different chapter. As Mr. Groves said, farm stands are a use that is allowed in EFU zones under state statute and is incorporated in County codes as well. It does not mean that farm stands are only allowed in UAR 10. Laurie Craghead said at this point Redmond can't be legally added to this process. She recommended staff bring back an ordinance and findings next week or the week after for the Board's approval. If the Board gives direction for emergency clause, then add it at this time. Minutes of Board of Commissioner's Business Meeting Monday, March 24, 2008 Page 3 of 4 Pages Commissioner Luke asked if there was a problem with the application as written or if staff puts an emergency clause on the application. There was none. 4. Before the Board were Additions to the Agenda. None were offered. Being no further items to come before the Board, Chair Luke adjourned the meeting at 10:30 a.m. DATED this 24th Day of March for the Deschutes County Board of Commissioners.

BACKGROUND The applicant has proposed changes to the Deschutes County Code for legislative text amendments to the Deschutes County Code ("Code") to include "farm stand" as a outright permitted and conditional use within the Urban Area Reserve (UAR-10) zone. Sections changed by this proposal include 19.12 (Urban Area Reserve Zone UAR-10), 19.88 (Provisions Applying To Special Use Standards) and 19.100 (Conditional Use Permits). Unlike Title 18 of the Code (which governs general County lands, including EFU lands), Title 19 (which governs UAR-10 lands) does not currently contain a separate use category for "farm stands." The proposed text amendments match the text set forth in Chapter 18.16, governing farm stands the Exclusive Farm Use zone. Like the farm stands allowed in EFU zones under 18.16, the proposed text amendments will require site plan review, in this case under DCC Chapter 19.76. By requiring site plan approval and review to ensure that a proposed farm stand meets the additional special provisions, the County will be able to retain the same level of oversight of proposed farm stands in the UAR-10 zone that it has with respect to those in the EFU zone. Two types of farm stands have been proposed. A farm stand, subject to site plan review, must meet requirements A-E below. A farm stand, subject to site plan review and conditional use review, must only meet requirements D and E below. Quality Services Performed with Pride g‘hiL i B A. The minimum lot size of the subject parcel is at least ten (10) acres; B. The subject parcel is receiving non-exclusive farm use agricultural tax deferral; C. The subject parcel is improved with a single-family dwelling; D. The structures are designed and used for the sale of farm crops or livestock grown on the farm operation, or grown on the farm operation and other farm operations in the local agricultural area, including the sale of retail incidental items and fee-based activity to promote the sale of farm crops or livestock sold at the farm stand if the annual sale of incidental items and fees from the promotional activity do not make up more than 25 percent of the total annual sales of the farm stand; and E. The farm stand does not include structures designed for occupancy as a residence or for activity other than the sale of farm crops or livestock and does not include structures for banquets, public gatherings or public entertainment. Requirements A and B were developed by the Applicant, in coordination with the Planning Comissions, to ensure that farm stands not subject to conditional use review, would not occur on small lots, or those not actually engaged in some significant commercial agriculture. Requirement C was developed under the assumption that a future applicant would be unlikely to place a farm stand out of scale or character with the surrounding area on the same parcel with their dwelling. Requirements D and E are taken from current farm stand requirement in the EFU zone. This application has been reviewed by the Planning Commission at a hearing on March 28, 2008 and recommended by that Commission for approval by the Board. The City of Bend has commented, recommending approval with only minor technical fixes. There are presently no known opponents to this proposal. STAFF DISCUSSION Staff recommends Board approval of this amendment. DOCUMENTATION A copy of the staff report is attached for your review. SCHEDULE This item is scheduled for a public hearing at the Board's regular meeting on March 24, 2008. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. STAFF REPORT TO: Deschutes County Planning Commission FROM: Will Groves, Senior Planner DATE: February 6, 2008 SUBJECT: Text Amendment TA -07-8 I. Purpose This application is for legislative text amendments to the Deschutes County Code ("Code") to include "farm stand" as a permitted use within the Urban Area Reserve (UAR-10) zone. II Background The Applicant originally applied for an administrative determination to confirm that a farm stand is an outright permitted use within the general definition of "farm use" and/or within an accessory use category in the UAR-10 zone. The Applicant withdrew this administrative determination, as it was unlikely to be approved by the Hearings Officer. III. Public Notice A Notice of public hearing announcing the Planning Commission Hearing was mailed on December 30, 2008 to the Bend Bulletin and parties of record and was otherwise noticed as required. IV. Proposal The applicant has proposed to make two specific text changes: 19.12.020. Permitted uses. The following uses are permitted: F. Farm stands subject to site review, DCC 19.76 and DCC 19.88.290. and 19.88.290 Farm Stands Within UAR-10 Zone 1 Staff Report TA -07-8 Farm stands may be permitted within the UAR-10 zone subject to site plan review, provided the following special use standards are also established: A. The structures are designed and used for the sale of farm crops or livestock grown on the farm operation, or grown on the farm operation and other farm operations in the local agricultural area, including the sale of retail incidental items and fee-based activity to promote the sale of farm crops or livestock sold at the farm stand if the annual sale of incidental items and fees from the promotional activity do not make up more than 25 percent of the total annual sales of the farm stand; and B. The farm stand does not include structures designed for occupancy as a residence or for activity other than the sale of farm crops or livestock and does not include structures for banquets, public gatherings or public entertainment. V. Review Criteria Deschutes County Code, Title 19 Chapter 19.04, Title, Purpose, Compliance And Definitions Chapter 19.12, Urban Area Reserve Zone UAR-10 Chapter 19.76, Site Plan Review Chapter 19.88, Provisions Applying To Special Use Standards Deschutes County Code, Title 23 Chapter 23.48, Urbanization VI. Analysis Unlike Title 18 of the Code (which governs general County lands, including EFU lands), Title 19 (which governs UAR-10 lands) does not currently contain a separate use category for "farm stands." Farm uses, as defined in DCC Title 19, are listed as an outright permitted use in the UAR-10 zone (DCC § 19.12.020(A)). DCC § 19.04 defines "farm use" as follows: "Farm use" means the current employment of land, including that portion of such lands under buildings supporting accepted farming practices, for the purpose of obtaining a profit in money by raising, harvesting and selling crops, or by the feeding, breeding, management and sale of, or the produce of, livestock, poultry, fur bearing animals or honey bees, or for dairying and the sale of dairy products, or any other agricultural or horticultural use or animal husbandry, or any combination thereof. "Farm use" includes the preparation and storage of the products raised on such land for human and animal use, and disposal by marketing or otherwise. It does not include the use of the land subject to the provisions of ORS 321, or to the construction and use of dwellings customarily provided in conjunction with the farm use... The proposed text amendments match the text set forth in Chapter 18.16, governing farm stands the Exclusive Farm Use zone. Like the farm stands allowed in EFU zones under 18.16, the proposed text amendments will require site plan review, in this case under DCC Chapter 19.76. By requiring site plan approval and review to ensure that a proposed farm stand meets the additional special provisions, the County will be able to 2 Staff Report TA -07-8 retain the same level of oversight of proposed farm stands in the UAR-10 zone that it has with respect to those in the EFU zone. The applicant suggests that farm stands may fall within the general definition of "farm use", that the use proposed in this amendment is actually already allowed under the definition of "farm use". Staff disagrees, as the definition of "farm use" is specific to the property in question. Staff believes that the use proposed by this amendment exceeds "farm use" by 1) the sale of farm crops or livestock grown on other farm operations and 2) the sale of retail incidental items and fee-based activities. While farm stands have been explicitly allowed on agricultural lands, Staff notes that there are some important differences between UAR-10 and EFU lands. EFU zoned parcels are, on average, larger than UAR-10 parcels. The average EFU parcel is approximately 126 acres and the average UAR-10 parcel is approximately 9.4 acres. UAR-10 parcels are often adjacent to higher density County and City zoning areas. Furthermore, approximately 35 percent of the roughly 400 UAR-10 zoned parcels are Tess than 2 acres and approximately 20 percent of these parcels are Tess than one acre. Staff imagines a potential scenario where the owner of a one -acre parcel, could cultivate, for example, a single pumpkin for sale. Under this text amendment, that property owner could then construct a farm stand. Because there are no lot coverage requirements in the UAR-10 zone, only setbacks, site plan required landscaping, and required parking areas limit the size of the farm stand structure. On a one -acre lot, Staff estimates a 4,500 square foot farm stand requiring 15 parking spaces could potentially be sited. This farm stand, in addition to the pumpkin, could sell farm crops or livestock' grown on other farm operations anywhere in Oregon2. Also, this farm stand could also sell other retail incidental items and conduct promotional activities. There are no specifications governing these incidental items and promotional activities provided they do not make up more than 25 percent of the total annual sales of the farm stand. Staff is, therefore, concerned that the proposed amendment could potentially allow commercial activity that would be inappropriate for small parcels and disruptive to nearby residential use. Staff recommends that the proposed amendment be listed as a conditional use in the UAR-10 zone. As a conditional use, farm stands would be subject the general conditional use criteria of 19.100.030. 1 OAR 660-033-0130(23)(d) "As used in this section, "farm crops or livestock" includes both fresh and processed farm crops and livestock grown on the farm operation, or grown on the farm operation and other farm operations in the local agricultural area. As used in this subsection, "processed crops and livestock" includes jams, syrups, apple cider, animal products and other similar farm crops and livestock that have been processed and converted into another product but not prepared food items." Staff believes that this OAR definition of "local agricultural area" would prevail without inclusion in the text amendment of a more specific definition. 2 OAR 660-033-0130(23)(d) "As used in this section, "local agricultural area" includes Oregon or an adjacent county in Washington, Idaho, Nevada or California that borders the Oregon county in which the farm stand is located." Staff believes that this OAR definition of "farm crops or livestock" would prevail without inclusion in the text amendment of a more specific definition. 3 Staff Report TA -07-8 19.100.030, General Conditional Use Criteria. A conditional use permit may be granted only upon findings by the Planning Director or Hearings Body that the proposal meets all of the criteria in DCC 19.100.030, as well as all other applicable criteria contained in DCC Title 19. The general criteria are: A. That the location, size, design and operating characteristics of the proposed use are such that it will have minimal adverse impact on the property value, livability and permissible development of the surrounding area. Consideration shall be given to compatibility in terms of scale, coverage and density with the alteration of traffic patterns and the capacity of surrounding streets and to any other relevant impact of the proposed use. B. That the site planning of the proposed use will, as far as reasonably possible, provide an aesthetically pleasing and functional environment to the highest degree consistent with the nature of the use and the given setting. C. That if the use is permitted outright in another zone, there is substantial reason for locating the use in an area where it is only conditionally allowed, as opposed to an area where it is permitted outright. D. That the proposed use will be consistent with the purposes of DCC Title 19, the Comprehensive Plan, Statewide Goals and any other applicable statutes, ordinances or policies. Staff believes these conditional use criteria provide important safeguards that would ensure that any farm stand was suitable in size, appearance, and intensity of use to the neighborhood in which it was located. Other potential limits on this proposal that have been discussed include a 10 -acre minimum requirement. Staff supports this limitation, as it would likely increase setbacks from farm stands to neighbors, reducing impacts. Although requiring that the property be receiving farm tax deferral initially sounded promising, the Assessor's Office commented that not all farmed lands receive farm tax deferral. Because the farm tax deferral acts as a lien against the property, some landowners do not apply for the farm tax deferral. VII. Compliance with State Planning Goals Goal 1 Citizen Involvement: Goal 1 requires local jurisdictions to provide notice of proposed land use matters. This proposal has been noticed in the following manner. 1. DLCD a. 45 -Day Notice mailed DCLD on December 10, 2007. 2. Planning Commission noticed public hearing February 28, 2008. a. Requested publication of 10 -day notice in the Bend Bulletin on January 30, 2008. b. Notice to interested agencies and parties of record January 30, 2008. c. Published on the County's website January 10, 2008. Goal 2 Land Use Planning: This proposal was reviewed under Goal 2 by Staff for compliance and determined to meet the intent of the goal to be suitable and factual 4 Staff Report TA -07-8 information and is in accordance with the County's Comprehensive Plan Urbanization Chapter. VIII. Findings Beyond procedural and noticing requirements (discussed above), no specific criteria govern the proposed legislative text amendment. The Bend Urban Growth Boundary Zoning Ordinance and the Comprehensive Plan contains a number of aspirational goals relating to Urban Reserve lands. Chapter 19.12, URBAN AREA RESERVE ZONE UAR-10 19.12.010. Purpose. To serve as a holding category and to provide opportunity for tax differentials as urban growth takes place elsewhere in the planning area, and to be preserved as long as possible as useful open space until needed for orderly growth. FINDING: The proposed text amendment would not have any adverse impact on a future transition from rural to urban lands. Development of farm stands on UAR-10 zoned properties would not irrevocably or irretrievably commit these properties to farm stand use and such development would not preclude other types of redevelopment under future urbanization. Chapter 23.48, URBANIZATION 2348.020. Goals. 1. To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to urban lands. FINDING: The proposed text amendment would not have any adverse impact on a future transition from rural to urban lands. Development of farm stands on UAR-10 zoned properties would not irrevocably or irretrievably commit these properties to farm stand use and such development would not preclude other types of redevelopment under future urbanization. 2. To assure that planning and implementation of plans in the urban areas are consistent with the best interest of both urban and urbanizing area residents. FINDING: The proposed text amendment would afford urbanizing area residents in the UAR-10 zone the opportunity to have farm stands in association with small-scale farms. By making farm stand a conditional use, as suggested by Staff, neighbors are ensured that any farm stand would be suitable in size, appearance, and intensity for the neighborhood in which it was located. 3. To retain and enhance the character and quality of the urban areas as growth occurs. To recognize and respect the unusual natural beauty and character of the area. FINDING: Staff believes that farm stands can enhance the character of areas with existing small-scale agriculture. Required site plan review and conditional use review 5 Staff Report TA -07-8 would minimize and mitigate any adverse impacts to the unusual natural beauty and character of the area. 4. To provide a sound basis for urbanization by establishing proper relationships between residential, commercial, industrial and open land uses; fostering intergovernmental cooperation; and providing an efficient transportation system. FINDING: Deschutes County has coordinated with the City of Bend on the application. City Staff commented, "The applicant proposes amendments to the text of DCC 19.12.020 and 19.88. The City of Bend Long Range Planning staff supports the amendments as proposed. We will continue to do so provided that the amendments are based upon the regulations for farm stands in exclusive farm use zones under ORS 215 and OAR 660-033. " Section 19.76.050 allows the Planning Director to require that H. Improvement, including, but not limited to, paving, curbing, installation of traffic signals, constructing sidewalks, striping bike lanes, or other improvements to the street system which serves the proposed use where the existing street system will be burdened by the proposed use. Therefore, Staff believes that any adverse impacts to transportation systems could and would be minimized and mitigated. 5. To retain and enhance desirable existing areas and to revitalize, rehabilitate and redevelop less desirable existing areas; to encourage and promote innovations in development techniques in order to obtain maximum livability and excellence in planning and design for development. FINDING: Staff believes that farm stands can enhance the character of areas with existing small-scale agriculture. Required site plan review and conditional use review would minimize and mitigate any adverse impacts to the unusual natural beauty and character of the area. VIIII. Conclusion and Recommendations Staff believes that the proposed amendment will accomplish its goal of allowing farm stands in the UAR-10 zone. No opposition to this amendment has been identified as of the writing of this Staff Report. Staff is concerned that the proposed amendment could potentially allow commercial activity that would be inappropriate for small parcels and disruptive to nearby residential use. Staff recommends that the proposed amendment be listed as a conditional use in the UAR-10 zone. As a conditional use, farm stands would be subject the general conditional use criteria of 19.100.030. Staff believes these conditional use criteria provide important safeguards that would ensure that any farm stand was suitable in size, appearance, and intensity of use to the neighborhood in which it was located. 6 Staff Report TA -07-8 Other potential limits on this proposal that have been discussed include a 10 -acre minimum requirement. Staff supports this limitation, as it would likely increase setbacks from farm stands to neighbors, reducing impacts. Although requiring that the property be receiving farm tax deferral initially sounded promising, the Assessor's Office commented that not all farmed lands receive farm tax deferral. Because the farm tax deferral acts as a lien against the property, some landowners do not apply for the farm tax deferral. Attachment(s): 1.
