In October 1998 Marion County held a hearing on the zone change to CG. Marion
County Planning Division recommended approval for the zone district amendment
from CR to CG. On January 22, 1999 the Hearing Officer concurred with the Marion
County Planning Division contingent on approval of a concurrent change to the
Woodburn Comprehensive Plan Map to Commercial pursuant to the City/County
Urban Growth Boundary Agreement. See attachment II.
IV RELEVANT FACTS:
1. The subject unincorporated 4.91 acre parcel lies within the Woodburn Urban
Growth Boundary (UGB) and is designated "High Density Residential" [> 12
units per acre] in the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan.] The parcel is zoned
CR (COMMERCIAL RETAIL) under the jurisdiction of Marion County.
2. The property is situated on the west side of South Pacific Highway (Highway
99E), approximately 2,000 feet south of its intersection with East Cleveland
Street. It is developed with a dwelling, sheds and barn.
3. Properties to the north and west are located within the City of Woodburn and
are designated for high density residential development in the
Comprehensive Plan. Situated to the south in a CR zone is Woodburn
Auction Yard. To the southwest are small farm parcels in a UTF (URBAN
TRANSITION FARM) zone on the Marion County Zone Map. Both these
areas are also designated "High Density Residential" on the City's
Comprehensive Map. Land to the east access Highway 99E contains a
service station and is currently zoned CG (COMMERCIAL GENERAL) on the
Marion County Zone Map but is designated for future "Industrial' use on
Woodburn's Comprehensive Plan.
4. In 1989, the applicants received permission from Marion County to expand
Woodburn Auction yard onto the subject 4.91 acre parcel [Variance Case
#88-18]. This approval allowed "storage and sale of used farm equipment
and implements and parking on sale day." It specifically precluded
placement of "auction yard related structures" on the property.
5. The applicant is requesting the Woodburn City Council amend of the City's
Comprehensive Plan designation on the subject property from "High Density
Residential" to "Commercial" and Marion County to amend the zone from CR
to CG (COMMERCIAL GENERAL), The CG zone "would allow the owners
to construct a mini-storage facility" on the premises.
6. The Marion County Hearings Officer has referred that matter to the
Woodburn City Council and Marion County Board of Commissioners to
resolve the Comprehensive designation.

and is considered to be available, over time, for urban development.

exchange of information and recommendations relating to land use

considered within the urban growth area by the County shall be
forwarded by the County to the City for comments and
recommendations. The City shall respond within twenty days, unless

responsible for preparing the public facilities plan.
STAFF COMMENTS:
Any request to amend a land use designation outside it's city limits
but within the confines of it's Urban Growth Boundary are to be
initiated by the City as stipulated in Section 1.5 of that ordinance.
However, under section 11.2 and of the UGB ordinance 11.3 appear to
allow the County the opportunity to review Land Use Requests in the
Urban Growth Boundary area outside the City limits. Whichever route
is taken, the City Council is to initiate a public hearing on this matter.
Any decision by the Council will then be heard by the Marion County
Board of Commissioners. See Attachment III.
Commercial Land Development Policy B-3
Strip zoning should be discouraged as a most unproductive form of
commercial/and development. Strip zoning is characterized by the use of
small parcels of less than one acre, with lot depths of less than 150 feet and
parcels containing multiple driveway access points. Whenever possible, the
City should encourage or require commercial developments which are
designed to allow pedestrians to shop without relying on the private
automobile to go from shop to shop. Therefore, acreage site lots should be
encouraged to develop "mall type" developments that allow a one stop and
shop opportunity. Commercial developments or commercial development
patterns which require the use of the private automobile shall be
discouraged.
STAFF COMMENTS:
· No new commercial area is established with the applicant's request
to amend the Comprehensive Plan Map from High Density
Residential to Commercial.
· The uses remain essentially the same the action is limited to a
physical upgrade to the existing use in the rear which is presently
used for the storage and sale of used farm equipment.
· A bed and breakfast occupies the property fronting Highway 99E.
· By the description of what constitutes strip development in the City's
Comprehensive Plan Policy B-3 this is not strip commercial zoning
since the applicant's property contains over 4 acres rather than one,
is over 150 feet in lot depth, with one not multiple driveway access
points.

Housing Policy G-1-1
EXHIBIT. A
Page~' ~
The City will insure that.sufficient land is made available to accommodate the
growth of the City. This requires sufficient land for both high density and low
density residential developments is provided within the confines of the
growth and development goals of the City.
STAFF COMMENTS:
The abutting action yard is not compatible with housing. A mini
warehouse makes a good transition or barrier between the auction
yard and any proposed housing to the north side of the applicant's
parcel.
The housing inventory for multi-family housing within the City's UGB
would be diminished by 4.9 acres. The trade off is the
Comprehensive Plan Map and Zone Change would enhance the
potential housing sites to the north.
Conditions of approval as imposed by the Marion County Hearings
Officer would limit the use.
VI RECOMMENDATION:
STAFF RECOMMENDS: The City Council approve the applicants request
to amend the Comprehensive Plan Map from High Density Residential to
Commercial with a recommendation to the Marion County Board of
Commissioners that a zone change from CR to CG be subject to the
conditions of approval as stipulated in the Hearings Officer Report (Case No.
Zone Change/Comprehensive Plan 98-13) of January 21, 1999.
