Annexation Provisions
Because the proposal is for annexation, per 5.04 it requires a Type IV review with City Council
decision. The applicant submitted application materials on April 17, 2024 and revised and
additional materials through May 1, 2024 (excerpted within Attachment 103).
5.04.01 Annexation
A. Purpose: The purpose of this Type IV review is to provide a procedure to incorporate
contiguous territory into the City in compliance with state requirements,Woodburn Comprehensive
Plan,and Woodburn Development Ordinance.
B. Mandatory Pre-Application Conference: Prior to requesting annexation to the City, a Pre-
Application Conference(Section 4.01.04) is required. ...
C. Criteria:
1. Compliance with applicable Woodburn Comprehensive Plan goals and policies regarding
annexation.
2. Territory to be annexed shall be contiguous to the City and shall either:
a. Link to planned public facilities with adequate capacity to serve existing and future
development of the property as indicated by the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan; or
b. Guarantee that public facilities have adequate capacity to serve existing and future
development of the property.
3. Annexations shall show a demonstrated community need for additional territory and
development based on the following considerations:
a. Lands designated for residential and community uses should demonstrate substantial
conformance to the following:
1) The territory to be annexed should be contiguous to the City on two or more sides;
2) The territory to be annexed should not increase the inventory of buildable land
designated on the Comprehensive Plan as Low or Medium Density Residential within the
City to more than a 5-year supply;
3) The territory proposed for annexation should reflect the City's goals for directing
growth by using public facility capacity that has been funded by the City's capital
improvement program;
4) The site is feasible for development and provides either:
a) Completion or extension of the arterial/collector street pattern as depicted on
the Woodburn Transportation System Plan; or
Brown Street Annexation ANX 24-01&ZC 24-01 Staff Report
Attachment 102
Page 4 of 16
b) Connects existing stub streets,or other discontinuous streets,with another
public street.
5) Annexed fulfills a substantial unmet community need,that has been identified by the
City Council after a public hearing. Examples of community needs include park space and
conservation of significant natural or historic resources.
b. Lands designated for commercial,industrial and other uses should demonstrate
substantial conformance to the following criteria:
1) The proposed use of the territory to be annexed shall be for industrial or other uses
providing employment opportunities;
2) The proposed industrial or commercial use of the territory does not require the
expansion of infrastructure,additional service capacity,or incentives that are in excess of
the costs normally borne by the community for development;
3) The proposed industrial or commercial use of the territory provides an economic
opportunity for the City to diversify its economy.
D. Procedures:
1. An annexation may be initiated by petition based on the written consent of:
a. The owners of more than half of the territory proposed for annexation and more than
half of the resident electors within the territory proposed to be annexed; or
b. One hundred percent of the owners and fifty percent of the electors within the
territory proposed to be annexed; or
C. A lesser number of property owners.
2. If an annexation is initiated by property owners of less than half of property to be annexed,
after holding a public hearing and if the City Council approves the proposed annexation,the City
Council shall call for an election within the territory to be annexed. Otherwise no election on a
proposed annexation is required.
E. Zoning Designation for Annexed Property: All land annexed to the City shall be designated
consistent with the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan,unless an application to re-designate the
property is approved as part of the annexation process.
F. The timing of public improvements is as follows:
1. Street dedication is required upon annexation.
2. Dedication of public utility easements(PUE) is required upon annexation.
3. Street improvements are required upon development.
4. Connection to the sanitary sewer system is required upon development or septic failure.
5. Connection to the public water system is required upon development or well failure.
6. Connection to the public storm drain system is required upon development.
Regarding subsection B., staff hosted the pre-application conference (Pre-App PRE 22-29) on
July 13, 2022.
Brown Street Annexation ANX 24-01&ZC 24-01 Staff Report
Attachment 102
Page 5 of 16
The applicant requests that the City designate the annexed territory with the Residential Single
Family (RS) base zoning district.
Regarding the criteria of subsection C.:
1. The City Comprehensive Plan, Section G. Growth Management and Annexation contains
annexation policies on pp. 30-31. The annexation criteria in the WDO already reflect the
goals, including efficient City services.
First, the territory to be annexed is within the Woodburn Urban Growth Boundary
(UGB). The premise of a UGB is to define an area feasible for the City to provide services
to greenfield development over approximately 20 years as described in the
Comprehensive Plan. So, in this way the annexation of territory within the UGB is
consistent with the comp plan.
Second, the territory also is adjacent to infrastructure that development can make use
of or extend into the territory to develop it:
• Roads and street: Brown Street borders to the property to the east as a west
half-street non-conforming with WDO Figure 3.01D "Service Collector" and
provides a means of access. The annexation legal description and map series
include the right-of-way (ROW) adjacent to the site.
• Transit: Along Brown Street, the City and other agencies could run transit
vehicles.
• Potable water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater sewer: These are adjacent or
nearby, and as the Public Works Department Directs at the civil engineer plan
(CEP) review and public works permit stage, the developer will upgrade and
extend them as necessary to provide or upgrade laterals to the site development
and for these upgraded and extended utilities to accommodate the demands of
the development.
• Other: Other franchise utility providers attend to such utilities as electric power,
cable television and internet, natural gas, and cellular wireless telephony, often
using existing or extended ROWs.
2. The territory is contiguous to the City. Per the comp plan and with implementation
through the WDO, upon development of the territory the City would require
improvements that guarantee that public facilities have adequate capacity to serve such
development.

Attachment 102
Page 6 of 16
The Public Works Department comments (December 6, 2023 &June 4, 2024;
Attachment 102A) were simply that public works conditions are going to be addressed
with the conditioned annexation agreement. (See four paragraphs ahead.)
Second, the Public Works Department, Woodburn Fire District (WFD), and Woodburn
School District (WSD) submitted service provider letters (SPLs) as annexation
applications require. They are in Attachment 103A. The Public Works one dated
November 10, 2022 states:
"This letter is to certify that the City of Woodburn has no capacity issue with the public
wastewater treatment facility or public water treatment facility. However, the subject
property is not adjacent to an existing storm sewer collection system.The requirements for
this collection facility would still need to be determined.The capacity analysis, design and
installation of water, sewer, and storm would be the responsibility of the applicant/property
owner."
Along with the Public Works comments that are Attachment 102A, it appears to
Planning Division staff that the Public Works Department has no objection to annexation
and that public works can serve the development through typical public improvements
by a developer of the territory to be annexed—and that the department will involve
itself with the drafting the conditioned annexation agreement. (See two paragraphs
ahead.)
Additionally, the applicant's narrative (submitted April 17, 2024, pp. 4-12) addresses the
annexation provisions. There's no written objection by the Public Works Department to
the applicant's narrative.
Lastly and most importantly, because of City concern that the legislature in 2025 or later
appears more likely to pre-empt local governments from requiring the usual public
improvements for developments of either housing generally or "middle housing" as
both ORS 197.758(1)(b) and OAR 660-046-0020(12) define, staff applies an annexation
condition. The applicant took initiative to submit a draft agreement, which the
applicant and staff revised leading up to the Planning Commission staff report for June
13, 2024.
It requires the applicant to enter into an annexation agreement for the annexation to
become effective, and the applicant tentatively agreed to such conditioning during a
November 20, 2023 with the Community Development Director and Senior Planner.

Attachment 102

In short, an annexation agreement would list and describe the dedications, grants, and
public improvements necessary to conform with the Woodburn Development
Ordinance (WDO) and establish provisions for the effect on the agreement when
changes in statue or administrative rules render compliance with agreement provisions
impossible or unlawful, with the provisoes that (a) a prime objective of the agreement
shall be and remain to secure public improvements despite such changes by the state,
and (b) changes by the state reasonably interpreted to relieve developers generally of
some or all burden of public improvements in and of themselves do not necessarily void
the agreement in part or wholly.
In short, through an annexation agreement, despite any future changes in state law that
exempt housing developments, especially"middle housing", from public improvements,
when this property develops, whatever the development, any developer of it will still
construct or pay fees in-lieu for public improvements (surface half-street improvements)
per City ordinances.
This is in keeping with the WDO 1.02 definition of"development", for which WDO
3.01.01D requires street improvements, and a section of the purpose statement that
opens WDO 3.01:
"An objective is to have developers construct or fund street improvements, and other
proportional share of improvements for the public, to lessen the cost of land development to
the City in order to lessen taxpayer burden for landowners in the context of Oregon Ballot
Measures 5 (1990) and 50 (1997)."
In order to conform with WDO 5.04.01C.2a by guaranteeing that public facilities
serve future development of the property, staff applies a condition for the applicant
to enter into an annexation agreement.
3. a. Examining the considerations under subsection a. because the Comprehensive Plan
land use map designates the territory Low Density Residential, and the territory is to be
designated with Residential Single Family (RS) base zoning district consistent with both
the applicant's request and Comprehensive Plan Policy Table 1:
1) The territory to be annexed meets the guideline that it "should be contiguous to
the City on two or more sides".
2) The applicant's narrative (pp. 7 & 8) states:
Brown Street Annexation ANX 24-01&ZC 24-01 Staff Report
Attachment 102
Page 8 of 16
"The Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map designates the Property as Low Density
Residential. The City's Housing Needs Analysis dated December 9, 2019, included
the Property in the city's Buildable Lands Inventory and the Property has historically
been designated Low-Density Residential. This application does not propose to
change density or zoning designations the Property is presently subject to.
This petition for annexation represents only a small portion of the land the City has
designated for residential use within the city's urban growth boundary. The City's
2019 Housing Needs Analysis projects a future need for 1,563 new residential
dwellings, which include single-family detached dwellings, manufactured homes,
and mobile homes. Upon annexation,the Property will be zoned RS—Residential
Single Family. The RS zoning designation will allow the Property to be subdivided to
create a maximum of seven new single-family residential lots, which represents
approximately 0.038 percent of the City's estimated need for single-family detached
dwellings. There is no known oversupply of land zoned for low density residential
use in the City's existing boundary; therefore, approval of the requested annexation
will not result in more than a 5-year supply land zoned for low density residential
use in the City. Furthermore, the requested annexation will allow the City to meet
the goals stated in the Housing Needs Analysis and Buildable Lands Inventory to
make land available for needed housing."
Staff mostly agrees, except that the number of dwellings might be more than 7
because the RS zoning district allows more than single-family houses. It also
allows "middle housing": duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, townhouses, and
cottage clusters. WDO Table 2.0213 specifies for the RS zoning district a
minimum net density of 5.2 dwellings per net acre. Though it lists no maximum,
Comprehensive Plan Policy Table 1 indicates both the minimum of 5.2 and a
maximum of 7.26 dwellings per net acre. If there were ROW dedication of 6 ft
width along approximately 390 feet length of frontage, the reduction of 1,884
square feet from 1.43 gross acres would yield 1.38 net acres. This multiplied by
7.26 dwellings would yield 10 dwellings, with staff stressing that for some middle
housing, like cottage clusters, state law appears to pre-empt application of a
local maximum density requirement.
In short, development of the property could have far more dwellings if having,
for example, 10 townhouses or(based on the Pre-App PRE 22-29 site plan)
approximately 20 cottages, instead of 7 conventional detached single-family
houses.
3) The applicant's narrative (p. 8) states:
Brown Street Annexation ANX 24-01&ZC 24-01 Staff Report
Attachment 102
Page 9 of 16
"The Property is presently served by existing public transportation (including bicycle and
pedestrian improvements), water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater conveyance facilities,
each with existing service capacities.The Property will not require any new capital
improvements to allow for future development activities that are consistent with the
Property's planned residential use and density."
Though there's no written objection by the Public Works Department to the
applicant's narrative. Planning Division staff note that "capital improvements"
refers to public improvements constructed by the City instead of a developer.
4) Regarding (a) & (b), the applicant's narrative (p. 8) states:
"The Property's frontage that abuts Brown Street measures approximately 391 feet.
The existing public right-of-way measures 36 feet from the centerline on the east
side of Brown Street and 30 feet on the west side of Brown Street.The west side of
the Brown Street right-of-way is presently improved with a 17-foot pavement
section measured from centerline to the face of curb (which allows for a 12-foot
travel lane and a 5-foot bike lane), and a 6-foot planter strip, a 6-foot sidewalk, and
a 1-foot section between the back of the sidewalk and the existing property line
(which provides more than adequate safety for pedestrian movements). No
additional right-of-way dedication or improvements are necessary or required to
safely develop the Property consistent with its planned residential use and density
following annexation."
Staff disagrees. First, (b) is not applicable because no connection of existing
street stubs is relevant. Returning to (a), completion or extension of the
arterial/collector street pattern, the existing west half-street is non-conforming
with WDO Figure 3.01D "Service Collector", which is the applicable functional
class per Transportation System Plan (TSP) Figure 2. Upon development of the
territory the City would require right-of-way (ROW) dedication and street
improvements that conform to the standard cross-section for the west half-
street. A conditioned annexation agreement remains relevant as described
farther above for criterion C.2.
In order to conform with WDO 5.04.01C.3a4)b) by completing Brown Street,
which is collector street as depicted in Transportation System Plan (TSP)
Figure 2 and corresponding WDO Figure 3.01D "Service Collector", staff
applies a condition for the applicant to enter into an annexation agreement.
5) n/a at least for the Planning Commission hearing because no City Council hearing
has yet occurred.

Annexation of the subject territory demonstrates some conformance with the criteria, but not
with 5.04.01C.2a & C.3a4)b), both of which relate to west half-street improvements.
Regarding D., the applicant addressed the requisite written consent and such that no election is
needed.
Regarding E., the applicant confirms the proposal includes no request to amend the
Comprehensive Plan land use designation or upon annexation to designate the territory with
City base zoning district other than RS. (Pursuant to Comprehensive Plan Policy Table 1, RS and
Retirement Community Single Family Residential [R1S] are the only zoning districts that
implement the Low Density Residential designation, and the clear WDO and zoning map intent
is that R1S came into being only to accommodate the existing Woodburn Senior Estates
subdivision, the 1960s retirement development now named Woodburn Golf& Estates located
in the north central and west central areas of the city.)
Regarding F., looking at subsections 1-3:
"1. Street dedication is required upon annexation.
2. Dedication of public utility easements (PUE) is required upon annexation.
3. Street improvements are required upon development."
The application neither proposes to dedicate required ROW (6 ft) nor dedicate at least the
streetside PUE (minimum 5 ft; maximum 8 ft), failing to meet 1. & 2. For the reasons described
for criterion C.2a, 3. would not be met without a conditioned annexation agreement.
The criteria can be met with a condition of approval requiring an annexation agreement
that guarantees public facilities serve future development of the property.
