DC 22-01 Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) Land Swap
Background:
The City of Millersburg is proposing an Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) swap. More specifically the City plans to remove 167.46 acres (10S-03W-33-00200, 10S-03W-29- 00300, and 10S-03W-29-00201) from the UGB (this has already been removed from the City limits) and add 162.89 acres (10S-03W-20-00402 and 10S-03W-29-00101) to the UGB. The Land Use designation of Industrial (I) and Zoning classification of General Industrial (GI) will remain the same for all properties. This will consist of a Comprehensive Plan Map and Zoning Map Amendment. A corresponding change to the County Comp Plan and Zoning will be included in this City action. This will include adding designations to two smaller areas that are already within the City UGB but do not yet have Comprehensive Plan or Zoning Designations. These are not part of the UGB swap. These include tax lot 10S-03W-29-00104, 0.74 acres, and a portion of tax lot 10S-03W-29-00206, 2.29 acres, which is currently split by two jurisdictions.
All actions by the City are tentative pending County approval, and Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) review afterwards. Linn County will be jointly reviewing the UGB change and adding a Comprehensive Plan Land Use designation of Agricultural Resource and a Zoning classification of Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to the three parcels proposed to be added to the unincorporated community.
City Action:
The project was reviewed by the City Planning Commission and approved/adopted by the City Council by Ordinance No 199-22, pending a final action by the County and the DLCD.
County Action:
Once approved by the City, an application was filed with the County Planning Department. In the interest of transparency, the City has posted all additional documents provided by the City to the County as part of the land-use review. These documents are a part of the County's public record for the project. Click the button below to see those files.
