1. The grant funds received by Grantee pursuant to this grant agreement shall be expended
only to accomplish and carry out the following activities:
The following description of work products outlines expectations under this grant
agreement. This grant agreement incorporates the city's proposed grant work program by
reference, however, the expectations found in this grant agreement shall prevail if and
whenever there is conflict with the city's proposed grant work program.
This grant is being coordinated with a TGM grant (TGM Grant No. 2Q-0 1).
Product No.1: This product involves completing Task 1 through 5 of the city's
proposed grant work plan, including the following tasks:
1. Coordination with Marion County:
Changes to the comprehensive plan and implementing land use ordinances must
be based on the county-approved coordinated population projection pursuant to
ORS 195.036. Woodburn's current coordinated projection of26,290 appears to
be low. The Office of Economic Analysis (OEA) projection for Marion County
will be released for public review this spring. The County will consider this
projection when considering possible revisions to its year 2020 projections, and
when allocating population growth among its constituent cities. It will likely take
six months or more for the County to coordinate with its cities, including
Woodburn, and adopt a population projection for the cities.
The city will coordinate with Marion County regarding any new population
projection and growth strategies, including the growth strategies of the Marion
County Growth Management Project. Any interim or new population projection
prepared under this grant agreement shall be coordinated with Marion County,
OEA and DLCD. Marion County has addressed its approach and expectations
concerning use of an interim population forecast and development of a new
coordinated population forecast for the city of Woodburn in a letter to DLCD
dated May 9, 2002 (letter hereby incorporated by reference).
To allow Woodburn to proceed with its land needs assessment in a timely manner,
ECONorthwest will prepare an interim population projection. The interim
projection will serve as the basis for work undertaken in this study, with the
explicit understanding that the adopted growth alternative which results as a
completed periodic review task must be based on a coordinated population
r

projection adopted by Marion County. The city will also coordinate with Marion
County when developing land efficiency and density targets pursuant to Goal 14
and ORS 197.296(7).
2. Coordination with ODOT:
All grant products shall be prepared and developed in conjunction with schedules
found in the Statement of Work for TGM Grant No. 2Q-OI (Woodburn TSP
update). The schedule for completing work tasks under this grant and the TGM
grant shall be completed in a manner consistent with the sequence of work tasks
found in the city's Periodic Review Work Program (Order No. 00794, dated
July 30, 1997).
3. Revise Housing Needs Analysis based on the revised Economic Opportunities
Analysis:
a. Economic Opportunities Analysis and Economic Development Strategy
In assessing its economic opportunities, the city shall consider how the availability
of transportation facilities and capacity is likely to affect the city's ability to attract
new industries. This analysis shall be based on planned transportation facilities.
In considering the availability ofl-5 freeway access and related transportation
capacity, the city will coordinate with ODOT, as otherwise called out in this
agreement.
The city's economic opportunities analysis is the basis for an Economic
Development Strategy (Strategy) and will also include clear Goal 11 commitments
that demonstrate provided adequate public facilities to proposed industrial sites.
The city will review, describe and analyze how it has utilized and protected its
large serviceable industrial development sites since its last periodic review and
provide mechanisms for protecting remaining Goal 9 lands for targeted
employers. Finally, the Strategy will fully identify development constraints for
targeted industries and land needs adjustments to the targeted industry list that
incorporate identified constraints.
b. Housing Needs Analysis
The economic opportunities analysis and Strategy will provide information about
future labor markets and wage conditions that may influence housing needs during
the planning period. In response to changes in projected population and
household wages, the city will adjust its housing needs analysis and will consider
the updated draft Housing Needs Model (Oregon Housing Needs Analysis
Methodology and Model).

Product No.2: This product involves completing Task 6 and 7 of the city's proposed
grant work plan, including the following tasks:
6. Create urban growth alternatives:
ORS 197.296(7) efficiency measures will be developed during this task and used
in developing various growth alternatives. This task will be closely coordinated
with DLCD.
7. Evaluate and select a preferred alternative:
The city's preferred urban growth alternative will accommodate some future
growth through land use intensification and mixed use zoning, re-designation of
surplus land (Goal 9 and/or Goal 10 lands), among other efficiency measures
pursuant to ORS 197.296(7) and Goal 14, and include expansion of the UGB,
only if demonstrated as needed under Goal 14 and related land use law. The city
shall consider utilization of efficiency measures proposed by McKeever-Morris
under previous TGM grant work during this periodic review, except that it shall
consider utilizing land efficiency and density targets called for in Marion County's
Urban Growth Management Project.
This task will be coordinated with DLCD.

Urban Growth Alternatives Study
City of Woodburn
January 31,2002
Contents
A. Background
1. Demoaraphic Information
The City of Woodburn is a rapidly growing community located along the 1-5
corridor between Salem and Wilsonville. From 1990-2000, Woodburn's
population increased by 50% at an average annual growth rate of 4.1 %. The
City's 2000 population is 20,100. However, Woodburn's coordinated population
projection for the Year 2020 is 26,290. In order to reach this population,
Woodburn is expected to grow at an average compounded annual rate of 1.4%.
Traditionally, Woodburn's economy has benefited from Marion County's strong
agricultural base. For example, Agripac and Conroy Packing Company have
anchored Woodburn's economy for decades. However, agriculturally based
employment tends to be cyclical and low-paying, resulting in relatively low
household incomes. Agricultural employment typically does not demand the
type of highly trained work force that will likely be demand by firms with higher
paying jobs.
More recently, Woodburn has experienced rapid employment growth along the
Interstate 5 corridor. Several major firms have located on the west side of
Woodburn in the 1990s, including WareMartlWinco Foods (distribution), Wal-
mart (retail), Wholesale Hardware Inc. (distribution) and a new retail outlet mall.
However, most of these new firms offer relatively low-paying jobs in the retail
and wholesale distribution sectors.
Thus, despite relatively rapid increases in the number of jobs, household incomes
in Woodburn are low, relative to Marion County and Oregon as a whole. Current
economic forecasts project a continuance of relatively low-paying jobs in the
manufacturing (resource related), service, wholesale distribution and retail
sectors. And, despite relatively rapid economic growth, Woodburn is beginning

to show signs of becoming a bedroom community. Housing costs are low in
Woodburn relative to the Portland or Salem areas, and easy access to
metropolitan-area jobs for Woodburn residents has resulted in ajobs-housing
imbalance. Woodburn has ajobs-to-household ratio of only 0.65, compared with
1.01 for the state.
2. Periodic Review Status
The City of Woodburn has made substantial progress in completing its Periodic
Review Work Program, which was approved by DLCD in July of 1997. To date,
the City has:
. Completed its residential land needs assessment (Task 1);
. Completed an industrial and commercial land needs assessment (Task 2);
. Updated its public facilities plan (Task 3a);
. Conducted a wetlands and natural resources inventory (Task 4);
. Completed its park and recreation plan (Task 5 - under review by DLCD);
. Completed its historic district / downtown plan (Task 6);
. Completed an Economic Opportunities Analysis (EOA) and an Economic
Development Strategy (June 2001).
The result of the City's periodic review planning efforts will influence this study:
>- The residential land needs assessment (PR Task 1) determined that, in the
absence of an aggressive economic development program, Woodburn's
household incomes were likely to remain relatively low, thereby placing a
greater burden on the City to provide for more affordable housing
opportunities. The City has adopted an aggressive economic development
strategy, that is intended to increase household incomes and which may
result in increased population growth rate.
>- The industrial and commercial land needs assessment (PR Task 2)
identified a need to add 330+ acres of industrial land with none of the
vacant tax lots are over 15 acres in area, and no aggregates of tax lots
(contiguous, but independent of ownership) exceed an area of35 acres.
The configuration and location of buildable industrial sites does not
provide a good match to the site needs of targeted industries identified in
the EOA.
>- The updated public facilities plan (PR Task 3a) determined that Woodburn
would be able to provide public facilities and services to land within its
existing UGB; however, funding for needed infrastructure improvements
depends in large part on a solid fiscal base, which Woodburn currently
lacks.
>- The wetlands and natural resources inventory (PR Task 4) identified
natural resource site constraints for properties within the existing UGH, an
essential element in any economic development program. Marion

T
County's Urban Growth Management Project has made specific
assumptions about the management of natural resource areas within the
Woodburn UGB. To ensure coordination with Marion County, the natural
resources inventory must be revisited to explicitly consider and
accommodate these assumptions to the extent possible.
~ The parks and recreation plan (Task 5) identified the parks and
recreational needs of the community, which will help to make Woodburn
more competitive in attracting appropriate industrial development and
improving Woodburn's residential neighborhoods. These needs may
change if population and household income factors change.
~ The Downtown Plan (Task 6) recognizes the importance of maintaining
and improving the downtown core area and recommends specific
measures to realize this vision. Increased intensity of development in the
downtown area will be factored into the urban growth alternatives.
The proposed urban growth alternatives study is directly related to uncompleted
Periodic Review tasks. The industrial and commercial land needs assessment
Task 2) identified a need for 300+ additional acres. This study will look at
possible measures (e.g. redesignation of surplus residential land, and mixed use
designations) and locations (possible UGB expansion) to meet this need. These
alternatives will play an integral part in the update of the Transportation System
Plan (Task 3b), which is about to start under TGM grant. The urban growth
alternatives study will provide the basic land use alternatives for the
transportation modeling. Alternatively, the TSP will provide an analysis of
transportation conditions associated with each urban growth alternative, which is
an important step to meet TPR requirements and ORS 197.298. The results of
this study will determine the necessary comprehensive plan amendments and
zoning ordinances changes required to implement the preferred urban growth
alternative (PR Tasks 7 and 8).
3. Economic Development Strateav
In 2001, the City conducted an Economic Opportunities Analysis (EOA) that was
incorporated into an Economic Development Strategy and adopted by the City Council in
June of that year. This strategy was based on the city's long-standing policy objective of
attracting higher-paying, non-polluting jobs to the community. The resulting strategy
identified the following:
. Woodburn's comparative advantages and constraints in the regional economic
market place;
. Potential appropriate industrial and commercial firms with higher paying jobs;

Urban Growth Alternatives Study

. A need to revise the housing needs analysis based on the economic
opportunities analysis, to better correlate expected incomes with projected
housing types and densities;
. The demographic, locational, site and infrastructure characteristics desired by
targeted firms;
. Changes to the Woodburn Comprehensive Plan, Public Facilities Plan and
Transportation Systems Plan and Woodburn Development Code that are
necessary to encourage appropriate economic development consistent with the
comparative advantage analysis;
. A detailed and specific investment strategy- including a detailed step-by-step
program designed to bring appropriate firms to Woodburn.
The study concluded that the existing UGB lacks sufficient industrial sites (both in terms
of type and acreage) to meet the city's long-term economic development objectives.
4. The Need for this Grant
This grant is necessary to address the wide-ranging issues and as a consequence of the
Economic Development Strategy. In coordination with DLCD and ODOT, the City of
Woodburn is updating previously completed Periodic Review work tasks to make them
consistent with the Economic Development Strategy,including:
. Revisiting the coordinated population projection and revising the housing
needs analysis, including consideration of the HCDC Model
. Updating the commercial and industrial land needs analysis
. Updating the buildable lands inventory, including an analysis of surplus
residential land appropriate to meet the need for industrial land
. Updating public facilities plans and coordinating with the TSP project
(revisions to the TSP are the subject of a separate TGM grant request)
. Creating an inventory of land outside the UGB (within approximately 0.5
miles) for consideration in developing the urban growth alternatives
At the same time the City will be coordinating its planning efforts to ensure consistency
with ODOT's 1-5 Interchange Management Plan, the TSP Update and Marion County's
Urban Growth Management Project.
The primary purposes of this Periodic Review grant are to fund:
. The analysis of land use alternatives, as required by ORS 197.298, that must
occur before UGB amendments are considered. In general, the three options
to be considered are:
1. A re-allocation and intensification of land uses within the existing UGB. .

2. UGB expansion to the north and west to provide sufficient land for
population growth and employment - and an increased coordinated
population projection.
3. UGB expansion to the south and southeast along Highway 99W.
NOTE: The three alternatives will provide the basis for the transportation
analysis as part ofthe TSP.
. The selection of a preferred alternative, which is expected to be a combination
of practicable internal measures to accommodate future growth inside the
UGB with limited expansion of the UGB.
. Draft implementation strategies to revise the comprehensive plan and
development code consistent with the preferred alternative.
B. Work Program Tasks
This grant is necessary to address the wide-ranging issues that resulted from the
Woodburn Economic Opportunities Analysis. The grant proposal includes the following
tasks necessary to supplement the City's ongoing Periodic Review planning efforts.
Task 1: Coordination with Marion County
The City of Woodburn's Economic Development Strategy and resulting preferred urban
growth alternative needs to be closely coordinated with Marion County's Urban Growth
Management Project.
A revised population and employment projection will be prepared based on the Economic
Development Strategy. Under ORS 195, Marion County is responsible for ensuring that
the population projections of its cities are "coordinated" with the county's population
projection. Woodburn's 2020 projection of 26,290 has been coordinated with Marion
County, but the county is in the process updating its projection and coordination with
cities as part of the Urban Growth Management Project. Woodburn will need to
coordinate the revised projection with the County and further "coordination" with the
State Economist's projection for Marion County may be required.
Marion County also must approve any comprehensive plan or zoning map amendments
that affect land outside Woodburn city limits. If plan map amendments are proposed on
unincorporated land within the Woodburn UGB, the county must approve these
amendments. If changes to comprehensive plan policies are proposed, both the city and
the county must approve these amendments. Urban growth boundary amendments must
also be jointly adopted to become effective: Marion County has a strong interest in
preserving its agricultural land base. County roads may be affected by proposed changes
in land use. In all of these areas, the city must demonstrate that coordination with Marion
County has occurred. Marion County will be viewed as an equal partner in the plan
amendment process.
City of Woodburn Periodic Review Grant Proposal
Urban Growth Alternatives Study
Page 5
T
Woodburn's urban growth management agreement (UGMA) with Marion County
provides guidance regarding the plan amendment and notification process. It is
important that Woodburn and Marion County follow the procedural requirements
outlined in the UGMA and include findings explaining how compliance with this
agreement and consistency with the County's Urban Growth Management Project has
been achieved in the plan amendment process.
Task 2: Coordination with ODOT
The City will closely coordinate with ODOT with respect to concurrent studies, including
the Circulation/Interchange Management Plan, Environmental Assessment, and TSP
Update. The goal will be to ensure all studies use similar baseline assumptions and
incorporate the latest findings as each study progresses.
Task 3: Revise the Housina Needs Analvsis Based on the Revised
Economic Opportunities Analvsis
As indicated above, Woodburn has already conducted a housing needs analysis.
However, this analysis did not consider the City's Economic Development Strategy,
which will likely result in a need for a broader spectrum of housing types and densities.
Using the draft "State of Oregon Proposing Housing Needs Analysis Methodology" as a
base, the City will conduct a detailed housing needs analysis consistent with Goal 10
(Housing),ORS 197.295-314 (Housing Needs Analysis) and OAR Chapter 660, Division
8 (Housing). This analysis will be specifically linked to the economic opportunities
analysis, in that the types of housing that will likely be demanded by targeted firms must
be addressed. The City is particularly interested in innovative approaches to providing
for the housing needs of existing and future Woodburn residents, while encouraging
efficient land use and the development of livable neighborhoods.
Task 4: Update Buildable Lands Inventory
The Buildable Lands Inventory was completed in February, 2000, with the underlying
analysis completed prior to that. The update will focus on the GIS database and factor in
recent development permits and major closures or vacancies, such as the AgriPac site.
The update also revisit the underlying assumptions with respect to natural resource land,
especially to ensure consistency with similar assumptions in Marion County's Urban
Growth Management Program.
Task 5: Create Buildable Lands Inventory For Areas Outside UGB
This GIS inventory will review vacant and redevelopable lands within approximately .5
miles of the existing UGB. This inventory will include aerial photo analysis, soil survey,
City of Woodburn Periodic Review Grant Proposal
Urban Growth Alternatives Study

T
and field check to classify land according to the ORS 197.298 priorities. It will identify
high value farmland (based on soil class), natural resource areas (based on National
Wetlands Inventory and field check), and exception areas and other areas with the
potential to accommodate future urban growth. It also will consider potential public
facility constraints.
Priority areas for future UGB expansion will be identified, based on the industrial siting
needs identified in the EOA and ORS 197.298 factors.
Task 6: Create Urban Growth Alternatives
Using the updated information from Tasks 1-4, the City will create three urban growth
alternatives to implement the Woodburn Economic Development Strategy. The
alternatives will incorporate the ORS 197.298 priorities identified in Task 4. In general,
the three options to be considered are:
1. A re-allocation and intensification of land uses within the existing UGB.
2. UGB expansion north of the City and west oflnterstate 5
3. UGB expansion the south and southeast along Highway 99W.
NOTE: The alternatives will be adjusted based on the results of Task 4.
The City will map these alternatives in their GIS database. The three alternatives will
provide the basis for the transportation analysis as part of the TSP.
Task 7. Evaluate and Select Preferred Alternative
Based on an analysis of the three growth alternatives, including an assessment of the
Public Facilities Plan and information from the TSP update project, the City will create a
preferred urban growth alternative. This alternative is expected to be a combination of the
three alternatives. It will seek to accommodate future growth through intensification and
mixed use, re-designation of surplus land and expansion of the UGB. The preferred
