Title
Tentative Decision and Request for Continuation to March 1, 2017: AN-16-0003: Annexation of Oregon City Golf Course

Body
RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):
Staff recommends the City Commission consider Planning file AN-16-0003, accept testimony, including new evidence, close the record and provide a tentative decision before continuing the Planning File AN-16-0003 to a date certain of March 1, 2017, at which time a written decision, along with an ordinance, if approved, will be presented consistent with the Commission’s tentative decision.

BACKGROUND:
This proposal is for annexation of the Oregon City Golf Course (117 acres) and approximately 2,000 square feet of the abutting Beavercreek Road right-of-way into Oregon City. The 117 acre site is within the Oregon City Urban Growth Boundary and has a Comprehensive Plan designation of FU- Future Urban with FU-10 and TBR zoning in Clackamas County. The property is within the area of the Beavercreek Road Concept Plan.

On October 24th, 2016, December 30th, 2016, and January 9th, 2017, the Planning Commission considered the proposed annexation before voting 3-2 to recommend approval of Planning file AN-16-0003 to the City Commission with conditions. The staff report was subsequently revised to include the conditions as identified by the Planning Commission.

During the course of the review the Planning Commission included an additional recommendation to the City Commission that they City consider supporting pending litigation in opposition to Senate Bill 1573 which provides an opportunity for an annexation review process without approval of Oregon City voters.

For the purpose of this hearing, the applicant requested the City Commission consider a presentation from City staff, the applicant and accept public testimony before providing a tentative decision and continuing the application to March 1, 2017. The continuation will allow the an opportunity for the applicant to provide additional written findings....
