I framework it embodies could not govern, and bind, current proposals for <br />2 needed housing that seek to modify a prior approval for needed housing under <br />3 a discretionary approval track that is otherwise consistent with ORS <br />4 197.307(6). However, the 1981 DDP did not propose or approve needed <br />5 housing, and the choices the 1981 applicant made in gaining approval for The <br />6 Regent do not force petitioner to accept a subjective approval track for needed <br />7 housing, or otherwise provide a basis for the city to avoid its obligation under <br />8 ORS 197.307(4) to apply only clear and objective standards and conditions to <br />9 proposed needed housing on buildable land. <br />10 Finally, the city notes that ORS 197.307(7) authorizes the city to <br />11 "[i]mpose special conditions upon approval of a specific development <br />12 proposal" and "[e]stablish approval procedures." See n 1. We understand the <br />13 city to argue that Condition 12 represents a "special condition" that was <br />14 imposed on the 1981 DDP approval, and the city can thus apply Condition 12 <br />15 as a means to effectively force petitioner to seek approval under the <br />16 discretionary standards at LDC 2.5.40.04. However, as noted the 1981 DDP <br />17 was not a "specific development proposal" for needed housing, so ORS <br />18 197.307(7) has no applicability in the present case. Further, ORS 197.307(7) <br />19 does not purport to modify the terms of ORS 197.307(4), or authorize the city <br />20 to impose unclear or subjective standards, conditions or procedures. Read in <br />21 context, ORS 197.307(7) simply clarifies that local governments retain the <br />22 authority to craft individualized conditions for specific needed housing <br />23 proposals. However, such special conditions are still subject to overarching <br />24 requirement at ORS 197.307(4) that conditions imposed must be "clear and <br />25 objective." As discussed above, Condition 12 is not clear and objective. <br />Page 14 <br />
