STAFF FINDINGS I. Legal Findings A. The subject property is designated as Limited Residential on the Redmond Urban Area Comprehensive Plan/Zoning Map. B. The subject property is zoned R-2, Limited Residential - Planned. Section 3.020 of Deschutes County Redmond Urban Area Zoning Ordinance 80-201 gives the standards which are applicable within the R-2 zone. .. C. Article X. Amendments of Ordinance 80-201 sets forth the amendment and rezoning process within the Redmond Urban Growth Boundary. II. Basic Findings A. The applicant has proposed to rezone a 28 acre parcel currently zoned R-2 to R-3, Limited Residential. The primary difference between the R-2 and R-3 zone is the density standard.

The land has been in pasture or cultivation in the past but does not appear to have been recently farmed. There is a slight slope from south to north. The elevated land to the south is part of a larger rock outcrop and the Forked Horn Butte area. An irrigation canal lateral runs north through the subject property on the eastern boundary. The soils for the subject property according the the U.S.D.A. Soil Conservation Service are predominantly Du - Deschutes Sandy loan 0-3Y slopes - Class II soils. There are also isolated pockets of Class VII scabland soils dispersed throughout. There is little or no.natural vegetation on the majority of the subject property. The elevated land does support some juniper and natural grasses. C. Land Use - As indicated previously, the majority of the subject property has been in a farm use in previous years. At the present time, the land is not actively farmed. Three single family residential structures and related outbuildings are existing. The applicant has indicated that the three residences are those of the applicants of this action. The land use surrounding the subject property includes single family residential structures to the east and southeast. The City of Redmond Cemetary exists to the south and west. Land to the north is pasture land. The zoning surrounding the subject property includes R-3 to the north and east R-2 to the west and R-4 to the south and south- east. D. Services - The subject property at the present time is not served by either the City of Redmond sewer or water services. According to the Public Works Department both sewer and water services could be made easily available to the property. Water pressure in the Forked Horn Butte Area is limited. At the present time, a sewer line is existing on Wickiup Ave. with a water line at Wickiup and 28th Street. i. • Page 4. Staff Report Z-81-1 39 w350 PYA The subject property is bordered by Wickiup Ave. on the north and 27th Ave. on the east. Both streets are shown as collectors on the Deschutes County Roadway Network Plan. Canal Blvd. on the southeast side of the subject.property is a designated future arterial. 9t1, The right-of-way width for Wickiup is 60 feet and the right-of-way for 27th is 50 feet according to the Deschutes County Tax maps. The subject property is within the Redmond Urban Growth Boundary and has all other services available to it. III. Conformance with Article X. Section 10.040 of Ordinance 80-201: Section 10.040 RESOLUTION OF INTENT TO REZONE. Based on the facts presented with an app cat on or rezoning as authorized under Section 10.010, the report of findings and recommendations by the Planning Commission as required by this ordinance, if the Board determines that the public health, safety, peace, comfort, convenience economic well being and general welfare will be best served by this reclassification or any portion thereof, the County may indicate general approval in principle of the reclassification by the adopting of a 'Resolution of Intent to Rezone" said property. Such resolution shall include any conditions, stipulations or limitations which the Council .determines to be necessary requirement in the public interest as a prerequisite to final action, including those provisions the Council determines necessary to prevent speculative holding of the property after rezoning. General provisions are as follows: (See Article X. Section 10.040 1-3 of BO=201) The applicant has submitted a preliminary site plan for the subject property. The site plan indicates a proposed street system and lot layout plan. IV. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan for the Redmond Urban Area. General Land Use. A. Residential Areas - The residential (urbanization and housing) elements of the Plan were prepared in conformance with the following general policies: services and facilities.

Staff Report Z-81-1 ` Pa Ya 39 rAu351 The proposed rezoning of the subject property would increase the density factor for the 28 acres from 3.3 dwelling units per acre in the R- 4 zone to .40 dwelling units per acre in the R-2 zone. This is assuming single family dwellings only. The pro- posed rezoning would brinq an overall increase in the present city density factor of '2.7 dwelling units per acre. The City of Redmond Public Works Director has indicated the services (water and sewer) are available to the subject property. At the present time, the static water pressure for this area is about 20 psi. A reserve if 20 psi is recommended by the State for any system. Based on these facts, there would not be adequate water pressure available to serve the site at the present time even at the R-2 density. Water service is critical for provision of sewer service. At the present time a proposed bond issue is planned for some- time in the spring which if approved, would generate the necessary funds for construction of a water reservoir and system that would bring the Forked Horn Butte area up to State Standards for water pressure. 2. Aperopriate areas should be C densities to provide a maximum ra re ate amen t es and facilities. esi ned for various residential nge of choice -with Droner v The applicant has indicated that the subject property would be developed with single family and multi -family dwelling units providing a mix of residential densities a range of choice. There has been no indication of the related amenities or other facilities that have been proposed to be included with the project. 3. All residential areas should be Provided with public services and faC—M-t-T—es necessary or sa a, heal t u convenient ur an v ng consistent With basic urban development policies. Additional _re_sidentiAF__U__OW_tT should occur as an extension of ex st ng development and city-servi ces At the present time both sewer and water lines exist near or adjacent to the subject property. Land to the east is developed at the present time at or near urban density. Page 6. Staff Report Z-81-1 � 33 PAu 352 The land north of the subject property is within the R-3 zone. The projected development densities would be consistent with those lands should this property be rezoned.. As the property is developed in terms of a subdivision review, other land use elements and community facilities will be addressed. At the present time there is insufficient engineering,and design data available to adequately address this policy. sistent with ho The applicant has indicated that there will be both single family and multi -family dwellings included within the proposed develop- ment of the subject property. This %'Ill bring about a general increase in the overall housing density for -the *Urban Growth Area and also the immediate area. 6. Various kinds of residential uses should be Protected from the ntrus on 'of incompatible uses in order to Preserve and stabi H7P The proposed plan for the subject property includes only residential uses. The proposed multi -family units would be located on the lots where they will have the least impact on adjoining or nearby single family (corner lots, near the entrance, etc.). At the present time, there are no uses other than residential ones proposed, this would appear to be consistent with the character of the area in terms of past trends. The subject property does have possible access points to Wickiup Ave. on the north and 27th Ave. on the east. As indicated pre- viously both of these roads are designated as collectors. 27th *- Ave. because of its So feet right-of-way should be brought to 60 feet in order to assure adequate right-of-way width when the road is improved. Canal Blvd. traverses the property on the southeast ?' side. There has been no indication by the applicant as to whether or not there is a desire to utilize this road for access. Because Canal is designated as a future arterial, there should be con- sideration as to the appropriateness of granting access on this road because of safety concerns. The proposed layout of the first pahse of development shows only one access to the parcel on Wickiup. The staff would request additional detail as to proposed ingress and egress points to all roads so that an adequate review may be conducted. Page 1. Staff Report Z-81-1 8.

The applicant has indicated that it is the intent of the developer to provide homes for lower and moderate income logal persons. It has also been indicated that this desire will be facilitated by the character of the subject property which will facilitate an economical development capacity. B. Urbanization - Urbanization Goals and Objectives.- Urban Deve okment. The following policies regard ng urbanization—would appear to relate to this proposal: 7. To ensure orderly growth from;.the community center to the urban area boundary and prevent urban sprawl, the following urban development factors must be found to exist as in- dicated below prior to approval of any development: D. Area served by Public Sewer, Water, Utilities and Streets: Sewage disposal and domestic water supply, as well as other public service and facilities, have emerged as critical factors in urban development, particularly in relation to capacities, the balancing of supply and demand, and the balancing of costs vs. revenues. Urban development criteria must. therefore, take into account the problem and costs associated with development which is not an immediate extension of these facilities. or extends such facilities beyond carrying capacities. At the present time. there is a critical water problem in the Forked Born Butte area. It would seem that any, new residential development would only have a detirmental impact on that system, no matter what the density is. The principal concern. that the staff has at this time is the timing of the proposal. Without adequate water service avaialble to the subject property, there can be no development at any density. E. Proposed Density Factor: The recognition that land is a limited resource, the need to minimize public costs, and the findings set forth in the UGB analysis all point to the fact that the density of development is an important factor. It is concluded that the priority factor relative to density should be for development with a minimum density factor of 3.5 units per net acre or greater. ._- _ .. ._ _..,..-. .. ... .� r.._.z,,... ............ _':.• .�...ws avaa.�t.,a+pit'9,.,r.-:".�......as^na.+,+=�, o � ..r �3•�;aA9e 8 � •r Staff Report Z-81-1 i vet 39 PAcE 354 The proposed residential density would be approximately 4 units per acre with only single family dwellings. V. Conformance with the Comprehensive Plan for the Redmond Urban Area. Public Facilities and Services: Sewer and water Facilities The following policies would appear to relate to to this proposal: 2. Expansion of the City's sewer and water system shall be used as a major tool in directing urbanization. 3. The City should maintain a high standard of water service to accommodate needed housing within the urban area. Steps should be taken"to implement a Redmond Water System Water Plan. Because the growth of the Redmond Area is dependent on pro- vision of water and sewer service, there would be somewhat of an inconsistency with this proposal and the above policies. It AS clear that the City is attempting to remedy the situation by the passage of a bond which would provide the necessary funding but at the present time, water service is a problem which also affects the provision of adequate sewer service. There would not be conformance with the above policies without either provision ,..of an interim water system for the subject property that provides ".t adequate water pressure or the completion of a new city water system. VI. Conformance with Applicable Statewide Land Use Planning Goals. i ,See applicant's statement. VII. Conclusion and Recommendation Another general policy is to bring about a general overall in- crease in population density throughout the community. This proposal satisfies the intent of the plan in terms of in - easing the overall density. But more importantly, there is -.` an inconsistency with policies regarding provision of services more specifically sewer and water. Public ."Any changes in zoning which occur are subject to Public hearing One .for of the general goals a close correlation of the Redmond Urban Area Plan is to provide between the _= '�� k and urban development in provision of urban services order to bring about .: efficient development P pattern, a more orderly and and thereby avoid unnecessary tax burden and excessive utility costs.

Some areas suggested in the plan for different kinds of land ?l uses can only be justified at some time in the future when sufficient population growth has occurred to warrant the development or when public facilities are available to support that development. All zone changes should be considered in relation to the general plan and thus serves as one of the continuing means u` evaluating the plan. If zone changes are comtemplated which are contrary to the plan. the community should first ame:!d -she policies and concepts in the plan before a chane of zone is made. This process insures that each petition for rezoning is considered in light of the best interests of the entire community." (The Plan in Context - The Comprehensive Plan for the Redmond Urban Area pg. 3). The staff would submit that more detailed information is necessary from the applicant concerning the water situation and proposed means of solving it. This information is necessary prior to a recommendation from the staff as to a decision. RK/ns 2/18/81 f f % • 01- IT' 39 PACE 356 01 02,1 N VO /4 5 EQ 2 9 T. 15 S R. I 11 i ICA.
