Conversion of a Hotel or Motel to an Emergency Shelter or Affordable Housing. House Bill 3261 (2021) and this subsection allow the conversion of a hotel or motel to an emergency shelter or affordable housing when the following criteria and standards are met.
1. 
Definitions. The definition of "regulated affordable housing" is specified in Section 12.01.500 and the definitions of "conversion" and "lawful use" applicable to this Subsection 12.40.107.C are specified below.
"Conversion"
includes an alteration to a building that changes the number of units but does not expand the building footprint. A conversion under this section is not a land use decision as defined in ORS 197.015.
"Lawful use"
includes a nonconforming use as described in ORS 215.130 (6) or any other local land use regulation allowing for the continuation of a use that was lawful when first enacted.
2. 
Applicability Criteria. Proposed conversions allowed under this Subsection 12.40.107.C must meet 1 of the following:
a. 
The proposed conversion is from use as a hotel or motel to use as an emergency shelter; or
b. 
The proposed conversion is from use as a hotel or motel to use as affordable housing; or
c. 
The proposed conversion is from an emergency shelter to use as affordable housing.
3. 
Standards.
a. 
Site Suitability. The conversion of a hotel or motel to an emergency shelter or affordable housing pursuant to this section is not permitted on sites where the City determines that:
i. 
There is inadequate transportation access to commercial and medical services;
ii. 
The site is specifically for heavy industrial uses including all of the Industrial Zones in Subchapter 12.25; or
iii. 
The site is designated for a statewide land use planning goal relating to natural disasters or hazards, including flood plains or mapped environmental health hazards, unless the converted use complies with regulations directly related to the disasters or hazards.

Non-Temporary Emergency Shelters.
1. 
Effectiveness and Vesting. The special use standards described in this Subsection 12.40.107.D shall not apply to shelters meeting the applicability of Section 3, House Bill 2006 (Section 3, Chapter 18, Oregon Laws 2021) while the bill remains in effect. When Section 3, House Bill 2006 (2021) is repealed, the special use standards below shall be effective City-wide. Any non-temporary emergency shelter established in compliance with Section 3, House Bill 2006 (2021) is considered vested and not subject to the special use standards below as long as the use of the shelter as an emergency shelter is not interrupted or abandoned for more than 2 years. Any non-temporary emergency shelter not meeting the applicability of Section 3, House Bill 2006 (2021) while the bill remains in effect shall be subject to the special use standards below.
2. 
Intent. It is the intent of these standards to ensure that any conflicts between a non-temporary emergency shelter and the surrounding land uses are mitigated through the special use standards, while also ensuring that shelter providers are not subject to overly prohibitive standards that would diminish shelter access within the community.
3. 
Characteristics. An emergency shelter is defined in Section 12.01.500 and provides shelter on a temporary basis for individuals and families who lack permanent housing, as well as those without adequate protection during times of extreme weather. As used in this section, a non-temporary emergency shelter is a shelter that is within an existing or newly constructed building(s) and is available year-round rather than being operated during shorter periods of time. Being available year-round shall not require that the shelter is open 365 days per year.
4. 
Exceptions. The following special use standards apply to all non-temporary emergency shelters, except those allowed through Subsection 12.40.107.C. A temporary emergency shelter that meets the provisions of HMC Subchapter 11.12 is not subject to these special use standards.
5. 
Approval Process. A non-temporary emergency shelter requires approval of a Non-Temporary Emergency Shelter application subject to the Type I procedure identified in CDC Section 12.70.030.
6. 
Stakeholder Engagement. A Non-Temporary Emergency Shelter applicant/operator shall facilitate a stakeholder engagement process prior to submittal of the land use application that meets the following minimum standards:
a. 
An invitation shall be mailed to all property owners and tenants within the areas identified below inviting them to engage with the applicant/operator on the proposed use.

In addition, the invitation shall also include an area for the recipients to identify their preferred topic area. The invitations shall be mailed to all property owners and tenants within the radii specified below that shall be taken from the boundary of the subject property:
i. 
Shelters With 49 Beds or Less: Within 2,000 feet
ii. 
Shelters With 50 Beds or More: Within 3,000 feet
b. 
The applicant is encouraged to choose the most appropriate form of engagement based on the amount of interest received and the stakeholders involved. Examples of this engagement shall include, but not be limited to, in-person or virtual meetings, a singular large group meeting, and/or multiple smaller group meetings with written/verbal dialogue answering questions;
c. 
In these engagement discussions, the applicant/operator shall provide preliminary details of the major elements of the shelter, including compliance with the standards listed in subsection D.7. below; and
d. 
The applicant/operator shall include a copy of the list of parties notified, affidavits of mailing, copies of all materials provided during the engagement, and notes from the engagement with the application upon submittal. If the shelter proposal is revised after the engagement process, a second stakeholder engagement process with a new invitation shall be required before the revised application is submitted.
7. 
Standards. A non-temporary emergency shelter shall conform to the following standards. Unless otherwise modified, the standards of the base zone also apply.
a. 
An operations plan for the shelter shall be included with the land use application. An operations plan shall include, at a minimum, items addressing shelter supervision and management, client interaction, rules for shelter use, facility operations and maintenance, safety and security provisions, and signage that complies with the Hillsboro Municipal Code.

b. 
Prior to closure, the Manager shall start by suspending the shelter and providing the operator with a written notice of the Manager's intent to close the shelter that specifies which of the above criteria apply. In the written suspension notice, the Manager shall provide the operator a minimum of 7 days to either: (i) provide a written response identifying the plan to reduce the number of valid emergency service calls; and/or (ii) to correct safety issues and violations. The shelter may be allowed to continue sheltering clients during the suspension unless the Manager finds that there is a case of an emergency or threat to human health or life safety.
c. 
If the operator has not corrected the issue(s) identified in the written notice within 7 days, the Manager shall move to close the facility. The Manager shall give the operator, clients of the shelter, and the property owner 7 days to remove shelter components, and for clients to vacate the location of the shelter. In cases of emergency or threat to human health or life safety, less than 7 days' notice may be given. The Manager's decision to close a shelter shall be effective immediately and shall specify the duration of the closure. An operator shall be permitted to reopen the facility following the specified duration of time as long as all items have been corrected and those corrections have been documented in writing and confirmed by the Manager. An appeal on the closure shall be made to the City Council.
