[Ord. 99-818A, § 3; Ord. 02-969B, § 11; Ord. 10-1238A, § 5; Ord. 11-1252A, § 1]
The Regional Framework Plan calls for long-range planning to ensure that areas brought into the UGB are urbanized efficiently and become or contribute to mixed-use, walkable, transit-friendly communities. It is the purpose of Title 11 to guide such long-range planning for urban reserves and areas added to the UGB. It is also the purpose of Title 11 to provide interim protection for areas added to the UGB until city or county amendments to land use regulations to allow urbanization become applicable to the areas.
[Ord. 98-772B, § 2; Ord. 99-818A, § 3; Ord. 02-969B, § 11; Ord. 06-1110A, § 1; Ord. 10-1238A, § 5; Ord. 11-1252A, § 1; Ord. 15-1357]
(a) 
The county responsible for land use planning for an urban reserve and any city likely to provide governance or an urban service for the area, shall, in conjunction with Metro and appropriate service districts, develop a concept plan for the urban reserve prior to its addition to the UGB pursuant to sections 3.07.1420, 3.07.1430 or 3.07.1435 of this chapter. The date for completion of a concept plan and the area of urban reserves to be planned will be jointly determined by Metro and the county and city or cities.
(b) 
A local government, in creating a concept plan to comply with this section, shall consider actions necessary to achieve the following outcomes:
(1) 
If the plan proposes a mix of residential and employment uses:
(A) 
A mix and intensity of uses that will make efficient use of the public systems and facilities described in subsection (c);
(B) 
A development pattern that supports pedestrian and bicycle travel to retail, professional and civic services;
(C) 
A range of housing of different types, tenure and prices addressing the housing needs in the prospective UGB expansion area in the context of the housing needs of the governing city, the county, and the region if data on regional housing needs are available, in order to help create economically and socially vital and complete neighborhoods and cities and avoiding the concentration of poverty and the isolation of families and people of modest means;
(D) 
Sufficient employment opportunities to support a healthy economy, including, for proposed employment areas, lands with characteristics, such as proximity to transportation facilities, needed by employers;
(E) 
Well-connected systems of streets, bikeways, parks, recreational trails and public transit that link to needed housing so as to reduce the combined cost of housing and transportation;
(F) 
A well-connected system of parks, natural areas and other public open spaces;
(G) 
Protection of natural ecological systems and important natural landscape features; and
(H) 
Avoidance or minimization of adverse effects on farm and forest practices and important natural landscape features on nearby rural lands.
(2) 
If the plan involves fewer than 100 acres or proposes to accommodate only residential or employment needs, depending on the need to be accommodated:
(A) 
A range of housing of different types, tenure and prices addressing the housing needs in the prospective UGB expansion area in the context of the housing needs of the governing city, the county, and the region if data on regional housing needs are available, in order to help create economically and socially vital and complete neighborhoods and cities and avoiding the concentration of poverty and the isolation of families and people of modest means;
(B) 
Sufficient employment opportunities to support a healthy economy, including, for proposed employment areas, lands with characteristics, such as proximity to transportation facilities, needed by employers;
(C) 
Well-connected systems of streets, bikeways, pedestrian ways, parks, natural areas, recreation trails;
(D) 
Protection of natural ecological systems and important natural landscape features; and
(E) 
Avoidance or minimization of adverse effects on farm and forest practices and important natural landscape features on nearby rural lands.
(c) 
A concept plan shall:
(1) 
Show the general locations of any residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and public uses proposed for the area with sufficient detail to allow estimates of the cost of the public systems and facilities described in Subsection (c)(2);
(2) 
For proposed sewer, park and trail, water and stormwater systems and transportation facilities, provide the following:
(A) 
The general locations of proposed sewer, park and trail, water and stormwater systems;
(B) 
The mode, function and general location of any proposed state transportation facilities, arterial facilities, regional transit and trail facilities and freight intermodal facilities;
(C) 
The proposed connections of these systems and facilities, if any, to existing systems;
(D) 
Preliminary estimates of the costs of the systems and facilities in sufficient detail to determine feasibility and allow cost comparisons with other areas;
(E) 
Proposed methods to finance the systems and facilities; and
(F) 
Consideration for protection of the capacity, function and safe operation of state highway interchanges, including existing and planned interchanges and planned improvements to interchanges.
(3) 
If the area subject to the concept plan calls for designation of land for industrial use, include an assessment of opportunities to create and protect parcels 50 acres or larger and to cluster uses that benefit from proximity to one another;
(4) 
If the area subject to the concept plan calls for designation of land for residential use, the concept plan will describe the goals for meeting the housing needs for the concept planning area in the context of the housing needs of the governing city, the county, and the region if data on regional housing needs are available. As part of this statement of objectives, the concept plan shall identify the general number, price and type of market and nonmarket-provided housing. The concept plan shall also identify preliminary strategies, including fee waivers, subsidies, zoning incentives and private and nonprofit partnerships, that will support the likelihood of achieving the outcomes described in subsection (b) of this section;
(5) 
Show water quality resource areas, flood management areas and habitat conservation areas that will be subject to performance standards under Titles 3 and 13 of this chapter;
(6) 
Be coordinated with the comprehensive plans and land use regulations that apply to nearby lands already within the UGB;
(7) 
Include an agreement between or among the county and the city or cities and service districts that preliminarily identifies which city, cities or districts will likely be the providers of urban services, as defined at ORS 195.065(4), when the area is urbanized;
(8) 
Include an agreement between or among the county and the city or cities that preliminarily identifies the local government responsible for comprehensive planning of the area, and the city or cities that will have authority to annex the area, or portions of it, following addition to the UGB;
(9) 
Provide that an area added to the UGB must be annexed to a city prior to, or simultaneously with, application of city land use regulations to the area intended to comply with subsection (c) of section 3.07.1120; and
(10) 
Be coordinated with schools districts, including coordination of demographic assumptions.
(d) 
Concept plans shall guide, but not bind:
(1) 
The designation of 2040 Growth Concept design types by the Metro Council;
(2) 
Conditions in the Metro ordinance that adds the area to the UGB; or
(3) 
Amendments to city or county comprehensive plans or land use regulations following addition of the area to the UGB.
(e) 
If the local governments responsible for completion of a concept plan under this section are unable to reach agreement on a concept plan by the date set under subsection (a), then the Metro Council may nonetheless add the area to the UGB if necessary to fulfill its responsibility under ORS 197.299 to ensure the UGB has sufficient capacity to accommodate forecasted growth.
