Title
LEG-18-00001: Development Code Amendments including Equitable Housing - Public Hearing (Tentative Decision)
Body
RECOMMENDED ACTION (Motion):
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission make a tentative decision to recommend approval of File LEG-18-00001 to the City Commission, and continue the Public Hearing to October 8, 2018 for the adoption of final findings and the incorporation of the Planning Commission recommendations from prior Work Sessions.
BACKGROUND:
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. As whole, the amendments result in greater opportunities for housing, reduce many regulations, streamline processes, provide clarity around existing standards, address some concerns, and are formatted so they are easier to follow. This proposal does not include any changes to the adopted zoning map or any city-initiated construction or development.
The remaining code direction is anticipated to be provided at the work session at 5:30pm. A final version of the code amendments will be included in the October 8th Planning Commission agenda.
The public and the Planning Commission are encouraged to provide written comment.
