December 3-4, 2015 - LCDC Salem <br />Agenda Item 4, Attachment B <br />DRAFT OAR 660, division 24, rules to implement ORS 197A 2 d Public Draft: November 13, 2015 <br />1 Density safe harbor described under subsection (g) of this section and in Table 2. To meet the <br />2 Housing Density safe harbor in this subsection, the local government may Assume For UGB <br />3 Analysis that all buildable land in the urban area, including land added to the UGB, will <br />4 develop at the applicable average overall density specified in column B of Table 1. Buildable <br />5 land in the UGB, including land added to the UGB, must also be Zoned to Allow at least the <br />6 average overall maximum density specified as Zone To Allow in column B of Table 1. <br />7 Finally, the local government must adopt zoning that ensures buildable land in the urban <br />8 area, including land added to the UGB, cannot develop at an average overall density less than <br />9 the applicable Required Overall Minimum density specified in column B of Table 1. To meet <br />10 the Housing Mix safe harbor in this subsection, the local government must Zone to Allow the <br />11 applicable percentages of low, medium and high density residential specified in column C of <br />12 Table 1. <br />13 (g) When using the safe harbor in subsection (f), a local government may choose to also use <br />14 the applicable Alternative Density safe harbors for Small Exception Parcels and High Value <br />15 Farm Land specified in Table 2. If a local government chooses to use the Alternative Density <br />16 safe harbors described in Table 2, it must <br />17 (A) Apply the applicable Small Exception Parcel density assumption and the High Value <br />18 Farm Land density assumption measures specified in the table to all buildable land that is <br />19 within these categories, and <br />20 (B) Apply the Housing Density and Mix safe harbors specified in subsection (f) of this <br />21 section and specified in Table 1 to all buildable land in the urban area that does not consist <br />22 of Small Exception Parcels or High Value Farm Land. <br />23 (h) As an alternative to the density safe harbors in subsection (f) and, if applicable, <br />24 subsection (g), of this section, a local government outside of the Metro boundary may assume <br />25 that the average overall density of buildable residential land in the urban area for the 20-year <br />26 planning period will increase by 25 percent over the average overall density of developed <br />27 residential land in the urban area at the time the local government initiated the evaluation or <br />28 amendment of the UGB. If a local government uses this Incremental Housing Density safe <br />29 harbor, it must also meet the applicable Zoned to Allow density and Required Overall <br />30 Minimum density requirements in Column B of Table 1 and, if applicable, Table 2, and must <br />31 use the Housing Mix safe harbor in Column C of Table 1. <br />32 (i) As an alternative to the Housing Mix safe harbor required in subsection (f) of this section <br />33 and in Column C of Table 1, a local government outside the Metro boundary that uses the <br />34 housing density safe harbor in either subsection (f), (g) or (h) of this section may estimate <br />35 housing mix using the Incremental Housing Mix safe harbor described in paragraphs (A) to <br />36 (C) of this subsection, as illustrated in Table 3: <br />4 <br />
