FINDINGS OF FACT
IN SUPPORT OF A
PROPOSED ESTABLISHMENT
OF A
UAR-2 1/2 ZONE
These findings of fact are for the support of a district
intended to provide for the orderly development of certain
public and quasi -public uses for the benefit of the Sisters
community, and to minimize conflicts with other urban uses by
concentrating like uses in one designated area.
1. There are two existing uses currently located either
within the proposed development or adjacent to the proposed
development and these uses are the Sisters Baptist Church and
the Sisters Youth and Community Center.
2.. Since 1976, when Books Resources sold property to
Sisters Baptist Church, it has made a committment to developing
the area commonly referred to as Heavenly Acres for use by local
churches,community organizations and fraternal organizations,
except those carried on for business for profit, whereby it would
make available property "at cost".
3. There are currently eight churches within the Sisters
area. Only three of these churches currently have their own
buildings.
4. Five church organizations within Sisters have expressed
a strong desire to purchase the property and locate facilities
within the Heavenly Acres development.
5. Testimonv has been received from various church and
community leaders within the Sisters area that inadequate
property is now available within Sisters for the development
of community facilities and churches. These reasons include
inadequate lot sizes, prices and incompatibility of uses.
6. Churches and other fraternal organizations have
historically been incompatible with residential development.
Heavenly Acres can help to alleviate this problem of incompat-
ibility of uses within the Sisters Urban Area.
7. There is evidence that several churches in Deschutes
County have relocated to rural areas in recent years because of
the conflicting nature of the uses with existing residential
development and the problem of availability of property.
Although churches serve an area much larger than the Sisters
Urban Area, it is important that areas be provided far churches,
community buildings and fraternal organizations within urban
areas.
8. The Heavenly Acres development is in an area recognized
as urbanizable land.
-1-
EXHIBIT C, PAGE 1
VOL J6ME 1
9. The Heavenly Acres development is currently surrounded
by "Brooks Camp" on the East, Barclay Logging Company on the
North, Sisters Baptist Church and the U. S. Forest service on
the West. There is, therefore, continuity of development
between the Sisters City limits and the Heavenly Acres develop-
ment.
10. The property within the proposed development will be
restricted to use by churches, community buildings, lodges and
fraternal organizations, except those carried on as a business
for profit, by deed restrictions and zoning ordinances.
11. The ten acre parcels currently available within the
UAR-10 zone are too large for most church and fraternal
organization uses. This land should be considered as urbanizable
land and lot sizes should be sized accordingly.
12. The reduction in lot size in Heavenly Acres development
would be applicable only to churches, community buildings, lodges
and fraternal organizations, except those carried on as a business
for profit.
13. There is no definite plan for sewering the Sisters
Urban area.
14. The relocation of churches and other community and
fraternal organizations to the Heavenly Acres development will
make more taxable property available within the Sisters Urban Area
15. The development of Heavenly Acres will require no
extension of public facilities. However, owners within the
development must agree to annex to the City at such time as the
City requests such annexation.
16. The area is not currently used for any agricultural uses.
17. Current ordinance standards pertaining to setbacks,
sanitiation eauirements, lot sizes and existing arterials limit
the ability of public and quasi -public uses from being located
in existing urban zones.

1. minimum lot sizes within that portion of the Urban Reserve

JUSTIFICATION FINDINGS FOR AMENDMENTS TO THE SISTERS URBAN
AREA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN MAP AND OFFICIAL ZONING MAP
A. Urban Growth Boundary - Forest Reserve Elimination (LCDC Comp)
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Amendment
1. Elimination of the west 80 acres of land from the
Urban Growth Boundary will result in a total UGB
area of 880 acres which is the minimum required
to accommodate the projected growth.
2. Elimination of the "Forest Reserve" designation
will eliminate conflicts with statewide Forest
Lands goals.
B. Elimination of Main Street from future one-way couplet
and replaced by Cascade Street.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment
1. Potential conflicts with adjacent school activities
will be reduced.
2. Cascade .Street presently exists with no need for
additional right-of-way acquisition would result
in easier implementation of a one-way couplet
system at less cost.
3. The U.S. Forest Service has objected to the ex-
tension of Main Street and has no plans to move
their facilities.
4. Due to the rapid increase in thru-traffic, it will
be necessary to implement the one-way couplet high-
way system much sooner than would be possible by
utilizing Main Street.
C. Elimination of Commercial designation on U.S. Forest
Service property.
Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment
1. The elimination of Main Street through U.S. Forest
Service property reduces the need for commercial
expansion at this location.
EXHIBIT D, PAGE 1
- 2 - VOL
2. The amount of commercial land lost will be replaced
by adding a like amount to the commercial area
designated along the south side of Hood Street
(extended).
3. Elimination of the commercial designation at this
location will reduce traffic conflicts at a
critical intersection where two major highways
(McKenzie Hwy. and U.S. Highway 126) merge into
Cascade Street.
D. Adjustment of Commercial boundary south of Hood Street_
(extended) to the centerline of Washington Street
(extended).
Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment
1. The additional commercial designation at this
location replaces the commercial area eliminated
from the U.S. Forest Service property.
2. The depth of 114 feet south of Hood Street extended,
is insufficient to accommodate needed commercial
areas of the City for the following reasons:
a. Public sewers are not available (see detailed
discussion of this restraint in the Comprehen-
sive Plan).
b. Size of vacant parcels are too small to meet
todays requirements for needed commercial
services and sewage disposal.
3. Increasing the commercial depth for the reasons
stated will discourage "strip commercial" type
developments.
E. Relocation of City Park designation.
Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment
1. Replacement of the city park designation from the
existing location to city property adjacent to
City Hall will not constitute an omission of down-
town park needs.
2. The relocation, being adjacent to City Hall and
the new library, will provide a more appropriate
use and maintenance capability.
EXHIBIT D, PAGE 2

VOL 36na 685
F. Redesignation of Circle 5 Trailer Park.
Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment from
LM, Landscape Management to RS, Single Family
1. The current Plan and zoning designation for this
property makes the existing trailer park a non-
conforming use with no provision to improve.
2. The existing trailer park is sub -standard,
particularly with respect to sewage disposal which
constitutes a health hazard. This condition cannot
be corrected under the present zone.
3. There is an established need for trailer park facilities
in Sisters and there are no other trailer parks
in the Sisters area.
4. The trailer park should improve in order to replace
the existing sewage s.ystem which poses a threat to
adjacent Squaw Creek.
G. Correction to Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map
Highway Commercial designation along U.S. Hwy. 12b,
Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment
1. Due to an oversight in the drafting of the final
plan and zoning map, the Highway Commercial designation
contained in the previous zoning adopted in 1975
was omitted.
2. In addition to the findings contained in the
Comprehensive Plan under Goal #14, Urbanization,
the following supportive data is added to indicate
the estimated growth of the Sisters influence area
outside of the Urban Growth Boundary in need of
commercial services without having to travel
unnecessary distances. Such commercial services
will greatly facilitate energy conservation as well
as provide for the convenience of area residents
and tourists.
