APPLICATION INFORMATION: Applicant: RSS Architecture, P.C. 2225 Country Club Road Woodburn, OR 97071 Property Owner: Industrial Welding Supply, Inc. 1995 Commercial Street N. Salem, Oregon 97303 II. NATURE OF APPLICATION The applicant proposes to annex 1.15 acres of land into the City of Woodburn and change the zoning of the property from Marion County CR (Commercial Retail) to City of Woodburn CG (Commercial General). III. RELEVANT FACTS: The subject property consists of two parcels which are located at 600 (610) N. Pacific Highway, further described on Marion County Assessor Maps as Township 5 South, Range 1 West, Section 17BA, Tax Lot numbers: 4100 and 4101. The subject property is located outside of Woodburn's city limits but within the City of Woodburn Urban Growth Boundary. Marion County zoning currently applies to the subject property which is designated as Marion County Commercial Retail (CR). The subject property is designated as Commercial on the City of Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Map and is proposed to be zoned CG (Commercial General) at the time of annexation. The subject property is currently developed with an industrial welding supply business that has been operating for 19 years. The subject property consists of two parcels totaling 1.15 acres in size. No wetlands or floodplains have been identified on the property. The subject property has street frontage on Highway 99E and Aztec Drive and is contiguous to Woodburn's city limits to the west, east and south. The adjacent properties to the north are located outside of the City. The properties to the west (across Highway 99E), east, and south (across Aztec Drive) are located in the City of Woodburn, zoned CG and designated Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 1 ,. Commercial on the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Map. Commercial uses are located to the west (across Highway 99E), south and north. The property to the east is vacant. The applicant is proposing to annex the subject property to allow future development on the property to occur with the benefit of city services for water, sanitary and storm sewerage services. This application was filed on June 28,2002 and, therefore, must be processed under the standards of the previous zoning ordinance and not the current Woodburn Development Ordinance which became effective July 1, 2002. IV. RELEVANT APPROVAL CRITERIA ANNEXATION 02-01: A. WOODBURN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IX. Goals and Policies B. Commercial Land Development Policies D. Annexation Goals and Policies H. Public Services Goals and Policies K. Transportation Goals and Policies L. Growth Goal M. Growth and Urbanization Policies B. WOODBURN TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS PLAN ZONE CHANGE 02-02 A. WOODBURN COMPREHENSIVE PLAN B. WOODBURN ZONING ORDINANCE 1. Chapter 15 Zone Change Procedures 2. Chapter 16 Comprehensive Plan Amendment Procedures V. FINDINGS: ANNEXATION 02-01: A. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan FINDING: The property is designated as Commercial on the City's Comprehensive Plan Map. It is proposed to come into the City under the Commercial General (CG) District. The existing industrial welding supply business is an outright permitted use in the CG zoning district. Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 2 "-_......_...__._~._--,._---"_..._--.._._" The Comprehensive Plan goals and policies do not establish a site plan review requirement for the annexation of developed properties. The applicant is not proposing changes to the site as part of the annexation and zone change request. As a result, a site plan review application has not been made as part of this proposal, and the criteria for site plan review are not addressed in this report. At such time that the property is annexed into the city, then any alterations would require the site plan review process. IX. Goals and Policies B. Commercial land Development Policies B-1. The City should at all times have sufficient land to accommodate the retail needs of the City and the surrounding market area. The City presently has four major commercial areas: 99E, 1-5- Interchange, the downtown area and the 214/211/99E four corners intersection area. No new areas should be established. FINDING: The property proposed for annexation is along Highway 99E, one of the four major commercial areas identified in the Comprehensive Plan. Since the property is also developed with a commercial business, no new commercial area would be established as part of the proposed annexation and zone change. B-4. Architectural design of commercial areas should be attractive with a spacious feeling and enough landscaping to reduce the visual impact of large expanses of asphalt parking areas. FINDING: The building on the subject site is existing. Existing asphalt parking is located on the west side of the site. A chain link fenced storage area is located to the east of the existing building. The eastern portion of the subject site is undeveloped. No sidewalks are located adjacent to the west side of the subject property along Highway 99E or the south side of the subject property along Aztec Drive. Two 20 inch diameter pine trees are located on the north side of the subject site. D. Annexation Goals and Policies D-1. The goal is to guide the shape and geographic area of the City within the urban growth boundary so the City limits: A. Define a compact service area for the City; B. Reflect a cohesive land area that is all contained within the City; and Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 3 . _...~ " C. Provide the opportunity for growth in keeping with the City's goals and capacity to serve urban development. FINDING: The property is currently within the Woodburn Urban Growth Boundary and is developed with a commercial business. Since the adjacent properties to the north, south and west (on the opposite side of Hwy 99E) are developed with commercial establishments as well, a compact service and cohesive land area would be maintained. 0-2. The goal is to clearly establish the intent of each proposed expansion of the City; to assess the proposal's conformance with the City's plans and facility capacity and to assess its impact on the community prior to deeming an annexation application complete. FINDING: The applicant is proposing to annex the subject property to allow future development on the property to occur with the benefit of city services for water, sanitary and storm sewerage services. The Public Works Department commented that the capacity exists within this system to support the site. Since the property is developed and no changes are proposed as part of this annexation and zone change, there will be no additional impact on the community. 0-3. The goal is to achieve greater utilization of land within the City by: c. Fostering an efficient pattern of urban development in the City, maximizing the use of existing City facilities and services, and balancing the costs of City services among all benefited residents and development by incorporating all territory into the City limits that will be of benefit. FINDING: An efficient pattern of development has been established in the area around the subject property since the subject properties and the surrounding properties are within the urban growth boundary and are developed. The Public Works Department commented that city services can be provided to the subject site from the existing 8" diameter water main, 8" diameter sanitary sewer main and the existing 15" diameter storm sewer main within Aztec Drive. H. Public Services Goals and Policies H-1. Public facilities and services shall be provided at levels necessary and suitable for existing uses. The provision for future public facilities and services in these areas shall be based upon (1) the time required to provide the service, (2) Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 4 , -.-- '.-r-- reliability of service, (3) financial cost, and (4) levels of service needed and desired. FINDING: The Public Works Department commented that city services can be provided to the subject site from the existing 8" diameter water main, 8" diameter sanitary sewer main and the existing 15" diameter storm sewer main within Aztec Drive. K. Transportation Goals and Policies K-1-2. Develop a street system wherein arterial streets are of sufficient width to accommodate traffic flows without interruption.... FINDING: Highway 99E, a major arterial street, has an 80-toot wide right-ot- way along the subject property. Its existing improvements include 4 travel lanes with a center turn lane. This section of roadway is of sufficient width to accommodate the existing traffic flow from the subject site. The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has jurisdiction over Highway 99E. A referral was sent to ODOT on August 22, 2003. No comments have been received from ODOT. K-1-5. The City shall encourage pedestrian safety and foster pedestrian activity, and sidewalks shall be provided on all arterial, service collector, and access streets. Where possible, sidewalks should be detached from the curb, separated by a minimum 4-foot side parkway strip. FINDING: Highway 99E, adjacent to the west side of the subject property, is classified as a major arterial in the Woodburn Transportation Systems Plan (TSP). Aztec Drive, adjacent to the south side of the subject property, is classified as a local residential street in the TSP. There are no sidewalks along the subject property adjacent to these streets. Sidewalks are not being required at this time because the applicant is not proposing any changes to the subject property. K-1-9. Where possible, driveway access along Highway 214 and Highway 99E shall be consolidated to meet the driveway density guidelines outlined in the Access Management Plan. FINDING: There are two accesses directly onto Highway 99E from the subject site. The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has jurisdiction over Highway 99E. A referral was sent to ODOT on August 22, 2003. No comments have been received from ODOT. L. Growth Goals Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 5 .. .. .--....--T....-.......-....--.-.-... L-2. The goal is to assure that all expansion areas of the City are served by public facilities and services with adequate capacity. FINDING: The Public Works Department commented that city services can be provided to the subject site from the existing 8" diameter water main, 8" diameter sanitary sewer main and the existing 15" diameter storm sewer main within Aztec Drive. M. Growth and Urbanization Policies M-1. To insure that growth is orderly and efficient, the City shall phase the needed public services in accordance with the expected rate of growth. The extensions of the existing public services should be in accordance with the master plans in this Comprehensive Plan. FINDING: The Public Works Department commented that city services can be provided to the subject site from the existing 8" diameter water main, 8" diameter sanitary sewer main and the existing 15" diameter storm sewer main within Aztec Drive. B. Woodburn Transportation Systems Plan FINDING: As mentioned, the applicant is not proposing any changes to the subject site at this time. Thus, the applicable goals and policies in this plan will not be affected. ZONE CHANGE 00-01 A. Woodburn Comprehensive Plan FINDING: Applicable goals and policies have been satisfied through the implementation of the Woodburn Zoning Ordinance and other applicable ordinances in affect at the time of approval. The designated land use for the property is Commercial on the Comprehensive Plan Map, and the existing use of an industrial welding supply business is in keeping with this designation. B. WOODBURN ZONING ORDINANCE 1. Chapter 15 Zone Change Procedure Section 15.010. Amendments. A Zone Change is a reclassification of any area from one zone or district to another, after the proposed Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 6 ...............-'........-....-r-.--.--.---. , change has been reviewed and a recommendation made by the Planning Commission. Such change shall be by an ordinance enacted by the Common Council after proceedings have been accomplished in accordance with the following provisions. Section 15.035. Hearing Before the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission shall hold a public hearing as described in Chapter 7 of the Zoning Ordinance. After concluding its hearing, the Planning Commission shall prepare a report setting forth a summary of facts and conditions involved in the reclassification and submit the same, together with its recommendation to the Common Council. Section 15.040. Hearing Before the Common Council. If the Common Council so desires, it may hold a public hearing on any proposed Zone Change or reclassification as provided in Chapter 7. Any Zone Change or reclassification of property shall be by ordinance, and shall not be passed until after the conclusion of a public hearing held either by the Planning Commission or Common Council. Denial of a Zone Change or reclassification shall be by motion. The petitioner may present written or oral information to the Common Council at the time the rezone or reclassification is considered. Whenever any change is authorized by the Common Council, the Official Zoning Map shall be changed as provided in Section 4.050. FINDING: A zone change is being requested as part of this proposal from Marion County CR (Commercial Retail) to City of Woodburn CG (Commercial General). The zone change is necessary in order for City zoning to be established on the property once it is annexed from Marion County. This zone designation is compatible with the use on the subject property as well as with the commercial designation on the Comprehensive Plan Map. 2. Chapter 16. Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment Procedure. Section 16.080. Burden of Proof. The following specific questions shall be given consideration in evaluating requests regarding plan and zoning amendments and are as follows: (b) To support a zone change, the applicant shall: (1) Show there is a need for the use proposed; (2) Show that the particular piece of property in question will best meet that need: FINDING: The applicant states the following: Annex 02-01 & ZC 02-02 - Findings in Support Page 7 --- -~ --..------.--..--.--r ". ..The current Comprehensive Plan designation is Commercial. The proposed development zone, Commercial General (CG), is allowed in this Comprehensive Plan designation. The public need for this change is to enhance and protect public health through City of Woodburn control of water service delivery and sanitary and storm sewerage services for future facility development on this site. This proposal does not enhance or diminish the CG land use zone or inventory of land so designated. It transfers control of future development from Marion County jurisdiction to City of Woodburn jurisdiction. The land immediately adjacent to this property is zoned CG where under jurisdiction of the City of Woodburn and CR where under the jurisdiction of Marion County. The petitioner desires to have the benefit of City of Woodburn utility services for future development that are not available without annexation into the City. This annexation triggers the need for changing the development zone to City of Woodburn CG zoning..." An existing industrial building supply business has been operating on the subject site for 19 years. The need for this business on the subject site has been established for many years. The zoning on the property is being changed to a City designation that best fits the existing use on the property, complies with the Comprehensive Plan Map, and is compatible with surrounding commercial land uses. VI. CONCLUSION Based on the findings of fact contained herein all relevant approval criteria relating to approval of Annexation 02-01 and Zone Change 02-02 have been satisfied.
