Body
RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission consider the Recommended Findings for LEG-18-00001 and continue the Public Hearing to September 10, 2018.
BACKGROUND:
Planning Staff has prepared initial recommended findings for approval of the proposed Development Code Amendments.
Planning Division staff and consultants have been working with the community to provide updates to the development standards within the Oregon City Municipal Code. The standards include a variety of topics such as options for additional housing opportunities as well as other changes which were not reviewed by the equitable housing advisory committees. A previous work session on July 23 discussed the "missing middle" housing code amendments.
The August 13, 2018 Worksession covered the background behind the project including the Comprehensive Plan and relevant City Commission Goals and Policies.
Based on the Planning Commission's direction, this hearing and work session is intended to include a more detailed discussion of the updated package of code amendments which primarily add clarity to the amendments previously identified.
