Findings
B. Location of Urban Growth Boundary and Urban Development
1. Revise #2 to say:
The northeast corner of the urban growth boundary includes
212 acres of land east of the railroad tracks planned for
residential use. The land was included as urbanizable
land because it is contained within the EPA sewer service
boundary. The area is already divided into six parcels,
five of which.are forty acres or less in size and only a
small percentage of the land is agriculturally utilized
for pasture. The land is necessary for estimated
residential land needsandthe area is in close proximity
to commercial services, the hospital and job locations.
Further, water pressure in that area is better than most
other areas in Redmond. The cost of providing public
utilities to the area will initially be expensive due to
the railroad that must be crossed.
2. Omit #9
Policies
A. Urban Growth Boundary
1. Add the following policy:
Residential development on the east side of the railroad
track shall not restrict the normal operation of an
industrial use in the area.

POLICIES:
1. A joint Cities/County Historical Landmarks Commission should be
created by the incorporated cities and Deschutes County. The
joint commission is meant to assure greater coordination in re -
Bards to identifying historical and cultural resources, protecting
those resources, being fully representative of the various comm-
unities, serving in an advisory capacity to all local governing;
bodies and their agents as well as promoting greater efficiency
and better information in. protecting the resources. The duties
of the conrnission would be to:
A. Create a local register and priority value for historic and
cultural resources of the County.
B. Review applications for designation of historical sites.
C. Advise governing bodies on ordinances and permits for demo-
lition or alteration of historic or archeology cal sites.
D. Advise and help resolve land use conflicts affecting such
resources.
E. Devise standards for historical markers.
2. Preservation of designated historical resources of high priority
rating should take precedence over most other developmental. usages.
3. Emphasis shall be on preservation of the exterior appearance of
historic buildings. Exterior changes
compatible with the continued maintenance of the historic appear -
ante of the structure shall be approved upon such findin!y of com-
patibility by the Historic Landmarks Commission.
4. Plans for the protection of an identified historic or cultural
site or cultural resource such as petroplyphs shall be submitted
to the Historic Landmarks Committee for approval with any appli-
cation for subdivision or development of such site or area.
5. Archeological sites shall be appropriately examined prior to des-
ignation for other uses. Zoning should protect the sites from
other uses until the explorations are completed.
vot 35 FAvE 723
5. Incentives should be developed to encourage private preserva-
tion and utilization of historical resources.
7.. Redevelopment, Neighborhood Improvement Projects, and other similar
mechanisms shall be encouraged for areas of significant historical
or architectural interest.

Inventory
* The Negus Sanitary Landfill operation began under County control
July 1, 1978. Prior to that date the site was used as an open
landfill. The site is located outside the Redmond Urban Growth
Boundary.
* The Negus Sanitary Landfill, county owned land, is about 160 acres
in size. About 120 of those acres are potentially useable landfill
area. Of the 120 acres, 40 acres is currently fenced and actively
used as the landfill. It has been estimated by the County solid
waste foreman that the 40 acres has an estimated life expectancy
of about ten years, or until about 1990.
* The Negus Sanitary Landfill accepts garbage, construction material,
timber scraps, limbs and brush, tires, septic tank sewage and dead
animals. About 80% of the fill is household garbage and is buried.
The wood scraps are burned and the tires are buried.
* In March, 1980 the landfill accepted 5,836 cubic yards of private
garbage, 1,228 cubic yards of commercial garbage (including tires)
120 privately disposed tires, and 35,000 gallons of septic waste.
Policies
1. The City shall encourage the County to protect the Negus Sanitary
Landfill so that necessary expansion of the operation can take place..
2. The City of Redmond shall encourage a cooperative countywide
recycling effort, including the separation of garbage into compatible
components.
3. The City shall cooperate with the County in investigating the
potential for utilizing solid waste as a source of energy.

"In order to develop the urbanization element and the
policies thereof, an inventory of existing land uses, quantities
of land devoted to various uses and location of differing land
uses, was developed for the amended Urban Growth Area of the
City. The inventory data was developed for the year 1978 util-
izing Deschutes County Assessor's Tax lot maps and records relative
thereto. Said time period was utilized to coincide with previous
inventories and State Statistical data for accuracy cross-reference
analysis. A summary of the assembled data is set forth in the

VOL 35 PAGE 728
(C) Page 30; Amend the last two (2) paragraphs to read as follows:
"Statistically, current growth and population levels
have evolved from a land use base utilization pattern that
is somewhat different from the options presented by the Plan
and other actions. At the present.time, the current popula-
tion of 7,518 is reportedly supported by a land use utilization
patternof 30% residential, 9% commercial, 12% industrial, 12% public -
quasi -public, and 26% airport. Under the proposed Plan, the
land use designation would be resultant in a land use pattern
at full development of 34% residential, 10% commercial, 13%
industrial, 20% public/quasi-public, 16% airport and 7% other."
"If designated land use patterns are actually realized,
the overall residential densities will have to increase from.
the existing 4.0 persons per acre to 6.1 persons per acre.
(Note: The overall density factor includes all lands desig-
nated for residential use; i.e. does not exclude land necessary
for streets, parks or other public facilities - such uses
normally constitute 20 to 25%.) Although such density is not
high and should easily be attainable, the question that appears
most relevant concerns the actual population projection. Basic
to that concern is the relationship of residential, commercial
and industrial land use. Relative thereto, the present ratio
is 4(Res):l(Com) and 2.6(Res):1(Ind); the Plan designation ratio
is 3.8(Res):1(Com) and 2.7(Res):l(Ind); the conclusion is that
if past development patterns have any validity, and if commercial
and industrial development occurs within any reasonable level of
that projected, then the initial projected residential land needs
will not be adequate."
(D) Amend line 5, paragraph No. 1, page 31 to read as follows:
"Thereof, it is assumed that the current level of
employment...."
(E) Amend paragraph No. 3, page 31 to read as follows:
"Even though there appears to be only limited comparison
between Corvallis and Redmond, if the same 1.6 induced employment
factor is utilized, the employment impact on the Redmond area from
the present committed development alone would total 4,800 (3,000
direct & 1,800 secondary). Thereof, without any other additional
industrial expansion, such employment (based on existing labor
force -population ratios) would be resultant in a total resident
popluation of 17,542."
(F) Delete paragraphs (b), (c), (g) and (h), pages 32 and 33;
Amend paragraphs (d), (e), (f) and (i) to read as follows;
Delete Table V, page 33.

V0L 35 PACE 729
(b) Utilizing a standard employee per acre ratio
of 6.0 said 14,928 equalling a population of
29,856. Assuming the present committed indus-
trial development is responsible for as high
as 80% of all resident employment growth in
the area; thereof, if 4,800 equals 80% of 6,000
(total labor force growth) plus existing employ-
ment of 3,600 for a total employment of 9,600
@ 6% unemployment rate for a total labor force
of 10,176 @ 50% of total population would equal
a population total of 20,352.
(c) Assuming the present committed industrial devel-
opment is responsible for 50% of all resident
employment growth; thereof, if 4,800 equals 50%
of 9,600 (total labor force growth) plus existing
employment of 3,600 for a total employment of 13,200
@ 6% unemployment rate for a total labor force of
13,992 @ 50% of total population would equal a
population total of 27,984.
(d) Relative to the foregoing, population growth to
the year 2,000 could easily range from the existing
23,093 to the latter 27,984:
*Initial Projection of 23,093: 3,785 acres
*Low Projection of 13,435: 2,202 acres
*High Projection of 29,856: 4,894 acres
*Projection of 27,984: 4,587 acres
*Average Projection of 22,044: 3,614 acres
(e) In conclusion, it was very possible that the initial
growth rate of 5% and the necessary UGB to accommodate
such growth may not be adequate. Thereof, close
monitoring of growth is deemed essential and
adjustments and/or modifications to both may be
necessary in the near future.

Amend to read as follows:
E. Buildable Lands Inventory Statement
Statistical inventory information indicates that there is
an approximate total of 9,150 acres of land within the Urban
Growth Boundary for the City of Redmond, of which approximately
20 percent or 1,822 acres is vacant and considered available for
future urban residential development (i.e. "Buildable").
An additional 433 acres is currently in tracts ranging from
5 to 20 acres with one (1) existing single-family residence for
which some potential for conversion and/or redevelopment is
assumed.
The current buildable lands inventory was derived utilizing
Deschutes County Assessor's Tax lot reaps and related records
for the year 1978. An actual tax lot -by -tax lot use assessment
was thereof completed for the area of the UGB. The 433 acres
referenced above was derived by totaling all parcels of 5 -acres
and more and subtracting one acre for each existing dwelling
thereon. Vacant lands, of course, include all lots and parcels
with no recorded structural use.
Further, a review of all available natural. resource base
information indicates clearly that there are no physical resource
limiting factors to development of all available lands, even
though some of the underlying geological structures may on
occasion create excess development costs. The key factor is that
there are no identifiable natural hazard limitations that will
strictly prohibit development. Therefore, all of those lands
classified as available for development must be considered "Buildable."
Utilizing the same tax lot inventory process, the acreage
calculations for each Zone desigation was also derived and such
information is set forth in a following Table.
(I) Amend Table VII, Buildable Lands Inventory, page 36 as follows,

Inventory of Housing Need
Coat 35 PAGE 734
The established annual "target" population growth through
the year 2000 is 5.0%. This tabulates to an estimated 23,093
people expected to reside in the Redmond Urban Area toward the
end of the forecast period.
The following is an attempt to project the number of housing
units necessary to facilitate this population increase. '
Computations required the use of several variable and constant
factors, and assumptions estimated population growth on a five year
interval, 5.0% annual rate; total number of persons in households;
average number of people per households; adjustment for occupancy
rate; adjustment for replacements, demolitions, and move -outs.
1. The estimated population has been determined by
compounding a 5.0% per year increase beginning with
the 1977 estimated population of 7,518 for the UGB.
(E) Page 109: After paragraph No. 5 add the following:
No. 6: Although recent housing trends indicate a high percentage
of new housing starts to be multi -family, that absolute
percentage is not expected to continue over a long period .
of time due to the following factors:
(a) Such housing is limited by available financing.
(b) A market saturation point will ultimately be
reached.
(c) There does and will not exist a predominate
transit market such as college students and
seasonal workers.
(d) Current and future residents of the area will
continue the desire for single-family detabhed
housing.
(e) Manufactured housing in the form of single-family
dwellings will increasingly provide an option to
rental housing for the lower income resident.
(F) Page 109 - Number of Housing Units Required for Population; Amend
to read as follows:
Number of Units Required for Population
Number of units required for any given year is equal to the
population divided by the average household size for that given year;
e.g. 1985 estimated population @ 5.0% growth rate = 11,108 = 49160
housing units. (2.67 is the 1985 estimated 2.67
household size) minus the current number of housing units, i.e.
4,160 (-) 2,651 equals 1,509 units.

The number of units by type is assumed to develop at
the following ratios averaged over the entire planning
period: 35% single-family conventional, 20% manufactured
housing single-family, and 35% duplexes, 11% mobile home
park units and 30% multiple housing units. Therefore,
the total need for 1985 of 1,509 new units would be met
by 528 single-family conventional units, 301 manufactured.

Inventory - Analysis
There are no known geothermal or fossil fuel sites in the Redmond
Urban Area. However, some geothermal investigation is occuring.
in the county near Newberry Crater and also near the Three
Sisters Mountains. There also exists a remote possibility for
fossil fuel development in the eastern portion of the county.
Policy
1. Ir future investigation in the Redmond Urban Area reveals a
potential for geothermal or fossil fuel development, an indepth
study of the situation shall be made. If conflicts arise with
potential site development and existing land use, those conflicts
must be resolved before development can take place.
2. There may be a potential for individual or area wide alternate
energy sources in the Redmond Urban area. Development of alternate
energy sources which are not inconsistent with the quality of life
and environment shall be encouraged.

The mining of pumice, cinders, building stone, sand, gravel
and crushed rock is an important industry in Deschutes
County. However, in the Redmond Urban Area there are presently
no active surface mining operations. Related mining activities
in the urban area consist of three existing Oregon State
Highway stock piles, two City stock piles and one County presently
inactive cinder pit (map 15 13 29B, tax lot 600).
Policies
1. If new surface mining sites within the Redmond Urban Area.
are identified in the future, the plan should be amended to
reflect the new information. Development of the potential site
shall take into consideration possible land use conflicts as well
as the social, economic and environmental impacts of the proposed
use. Development of an identified surface mining site shall
require a conditional use permit.

Inventory - Analysis
The Central Oregon Park and Recreation District, established in 1975,
serves the Redmond Urban Area as well as a large area outside the
UGB. The District. presently has no -budget and operates under a five
member Board of Directors.
The Cascade Swim Center, completed in 1979, was constructed and has
been staffed exclusively by donated funds. Central Oregon Park
and Recreation District is the owner of the pool and will be
responsible for future operations.
In October, 1979 the Park and Recreation District initiated a number
of free programs for local residents. These include, recreational
vollyball, tennis classes, the pool activities and a number of special
events. Interest in these programs has steadily increased although,
due to a lack of funds, many people are still not aware of the District
or its activities.

RECONFIENDED ADDENDUM TO PARKS, RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE
(Comp. Plan p. 84- 5)'
INVENTORY - ANALYSIS
The Redmond urban area is abundant 'in natural scenic views and sites.
From most anywhere in the area a panoramic view of the Cascade Mountains
to the West exists. To the northeast various angles of the striking Smith
Rocks can been seen and to the east are the gentle-foothills of Powell Butte.
Redmond residents take pride in the City's natural scenic attributes. The
beauty and desirable environmental qualities of the area are also a signif-
icant factor in the recent migration trends to the Redmond area.
POLICY
1. Because a major concern is the protection of existing scenic views in
the Redmond area.
a. Development standards along the canyon rim shall be developed in-
eluding a height limitation and required site plan review for all
development.
b. Future development shall be encouraged to respect scenic views
of existing development and where feasible, avoid eliminating those views.

Add: Fish and Wildlife Resources
Within and adjacent to the.proposed Redmond Urban Area there are
only two specific areas of wildlife concern. There are:
1. The dry canyon area:
Although there are no known wildlife species that need
protection, there are numerous species of game and non -
game wildlife that utilize this area and enhance the
purpose of the canyon's ultimate public reserve open space
and recreational use.
2. Lions Pond:
Potentially available for public utilization, particularly
angling for children. This area has a small variety of
non -game and fish. Water associated birds would probably
nest there if the shoreline.habitat were allowed to develop.

1. Add the following finding:
a. Casper Mobile Acres Subdivision as a 40 acre residential
neighborhood located in the industrial district of
Redmond. The subdivision's protective covenants restrict
anything but residential development until 1996. It is
the intent of this plan that the owners of lots in the
subdivision be allowed to utilize their property in
accordance with these covenants. However, once the
.covenants cease the area will be integrated with the
industrial character of the surrounding properties.

2. Add the following policy:
a. On June 20, 1996 (or sooner it the covenants are repealed).when
the protective covenants for Casper riobile Acres expire, the
subdivision shall be rezoned to industrial use. Further, any ne
residents of this subdivision should be notified of the future
industrial zoning and possible land use conflicts. Industrial
development in the adjacent area shall not be restricted by this
temporary residential subdivision.
3. Omit the following policies:
a. Recognizing the inherent conflict of public land use
regulation and ownership in competition with private
ownership the City of Rddmond and the County shall
jointly establish a separate commission, representative
of the respective governmental and private interests.
The commission shall administer and enforce land use
regulations within the Redmond industrial areas in
accordance with the comprehensive plan and applicable
land use ordinances.
b. To minimize "red tape", applications for development in
industrial areas shall be processed solely by the established

s REVIEW AND REVISION PROCESS
The Redmond Urban Area Comprehensive Plan which will be referred
to as "The Plan" is not cast in concrete. It is a public plan bya
changing society, in a developing and dynamic situation. It is
recognized that as a result of changing and future conditions, planning
programs, including the.plan must be periodically reviewed and updated.
The plan shall be reviewed biennially and more frequently if
necessary, to assure that it reflects the desires and needs of the
people it is designed to serve, achieves its desired goals and meets
state requirements.; The plan shall be evaluated in relation to
changing public policies and circumstances, including community, social,
economic and environmental needs; the workability of planning programs
and carrying out the intent of the LCDC goals and guidelines and the
goals and guidelines of the city and the county.
Changes in the plan should be evolutionary and not revolutionary,
particularly if individuals, organizations, and.public agencies are
to be able to rely upon it. Those people and agencies who were involved
with the preparation of the plan, and the general public as well,
should be given an opportunity to be included in any review so that
their understanding -of, and support for the plan will continue.
TYPES OF REVIEW
The plan may be reviewed and modified by utilization of either of
the two following procedures:
1. regularly scheduled biennial review, and
2. interim review
Any review or modification which may be made under an interim
review may also be made at a biennial review, but the converse is
not necessarily true.
BIENNIAL REVIEW
At a minimum biennial review should include a review of the plan,
its underlying data and workability considering the following factors:
1. The Oregon Revised Statutes
2. Oregon Case Law
3. Oregon Statewide Planning Goals
4. Requirements of the City
5. Needs of residents or landowners
growth area
6. Concerns of the county and other
and
within the City and Urban
affected governmental units;
7. That the plan is internally consistent
The plan should be modified to incorporate necessary or desirable
changes or affects of the above factors. The purpose of the biennial
review process is two -fold:
1. To adapt the plan to changing needs and circumstances; and
2. To assure that the plan remains a cohesive and internally
consistent document
Major revisions include land use changes that have wide -spread
o2 Y
VOL . 35 FAGS 746 $
and significant impact beyond the immediate area such as quanttfativd,
changes producing large volumes of traffic, a qualitative change in—
the character of the land use itself, such as conversion of residentia-
to industrial use; or a spatial change that affects large areas or
many different ownerships. The plan shall be reviewed, at least every
two years and a public statement issued on whether any modification
is needed. The review should begin with a re-examination of the
data supporting the plan and any problems which have become apparent
in working with the plan, and continue through the same procedures
that were incorporated in the initial preparation and adoption of
the plan, including citizen involvement, and in conformance with
LCDC goal 2. It shall be the responsibility of tM-- City Planning
Director to initiate the biennial review process.
INTERIM REVIEW
It shall be the purpose of interim review to evaluate the .
necessity for, and the making of, minor changes in the plan. Minor
changes are those which do not have a significant effect beyond the
immediate area of the change. While it is believed that while the
overall plan is good and workable, at the same time it is recognized
that it is a general document and there may be as time goes by, need
for changes or modifications to affectuate the needs in particular or
specific areas or instances. Any change or modification made under the
interim review process shall be evaluated in terms of the general
overall philosophy of the plan, whether changes have occurred relative
to the proposed modification since the adoption of the plan and whether
or not the public need is promoted by the proposed modifications In
deciding whether a modification is appropriate under, the then existing
circumstances, all of the above factors, and any other irrelevant
factors shall be considered. However the determination shall not be
made by isolating any one of said factors for other irrelevant factor
and relying on it to the exclusion of any of the irrelevant factors.
PROCEDURE
Legislative Plan Amendments
Following receipt of recommended changes, amendment.of the
Comprehensive Plan shall be based on the following procedure and
requirements:
1. Prior to submitting proposed changes to the Redmond Urban
Area Planning Commission each jurisdiction shall have an
opportunity to review and comment on the proposed change.
2. All proposed changes shall then be referred to the Redmond
Urban Area Planning Commission for review and recommendation.
3. The Planning Commission shall recommend to the City Council
and Board of County Commissioners adoption, revision, or
denial of the proposed amendments.
4. Upon receipt of the Planning Commission recommendation the
City and County shall set a public hearing date and give
notice thereof through a newspaper of general circulation in
the City at least ten days prior to the hearing. As applicable,
such hearing shall be conducted jointly with the county.
5. Copies of proposed amendments and the Planning Commission
recommendation shall be made available for review at least
ten days prior to the City Council or joint City Council
hearing.
VOL 35 PAGE 747
{ 6. Within ten days after the close of the public hearing,
the City Council and County Board of Commissioners shall
make findings of fact and adopt, adopt with changes, or deny
the proposed amendments.
7. If there is a disagreement between the governing bodies, either
jurisdiction may seek review of the other jurisdiction's
decision from the Land Use Board,of Appeals.
QUASI JUDICIAL PLAN AMENDMENTS
Quasi Judicial modifications may be initiated and shall
be processed in conformance with Articles 10 and 11 of the
Redmond Zoning and Land Use Ordinance and the Management
Agreement.
JURISDICTION
The City shall have the exclusive jurisdiction to make
any modification to the plan where said modification affects
land only within the city limits. Jurisdiction shall vest
in both the city and the county for any modification which
applies to lands both within the city and outside, but
within the urban growth boundary. The county shall have
exclusive jurisdiction to make any modification where said
modification affects only lands outside the city limits
but inside the urban growth boundary.
TIME LIMITS
It is recognized that undue delays in the processing
of proposed modifications for amendments unnecessarily
increase the costs involved to the interested parties and
said costs are ultimately passed on to the consuming public.
Every effort should be made to process the proposed
modifications as rapidly as possible, consistent with a
thorough and adequate review. For a plan amendment within
the urban boundary, the City Council and/or Board of County
Commissioners shall make every effort to act upon the
proposed change within 120 days of the filing of the applicatic
