The local government <br />9 must also apply appropriate zoning to the added land consistent with the plan designation or may <br />10 maintain the land as urbanizable land until the land is rezoned for the planned urban uses, either <br />11 by retaining the zoning that was assigned prior to inclusion in the boundary or by applying other <br />12 interim zoning that maintains the land's potential for planned urban development. The <br />13 requirements of ORS 197.296 regarding planning and zoning also apply when local governments <br />14 specified in that statute add land to the UGB. <br />15 (7) As a safe harbor regarding requirements concerning "efficiency," a local government that <br />16 chooses to use the density and mix safe harbors in OAR 660-024-0040(8) is deemed to have met <br />17 the Goal 14 efficiency requirements under: <br />18 (a) Sections (1) and (4) of this rule regarding evaluation of the development capacity of <br />19 residential land inside the UGB to accommodate the estimated 20-year needs; and <br />20 (b) Goal 14 regarding a demonstration that residential needs cannot be reasonably <br />21 accommodated on residential land already inside the UGB, but not with respect to: <br />22 (A) A demonstration that residential needs cannot be reasonably accommodated by <br />23 rezoning non-residential land, and <br />24 (B) Compliance with Goal 14 Boundary Location factors. <br />25 660-024-0060 <br />26 Metro Boundary Location Alternatives Analysis <br />27 (1) When considering a Metro UGB amendment, [g low' o e,-H eH ] Metro must determine <br />28 which land to add by evaluating alternative urban growth boundary locations. For Metro, <br />29 144his determination must be consistent with the priority of land specified in ORS 197.298 and <br />30 the boundary location factors of Goal 14, as follows: <br />31 (a) Beginning with the highest priority of land available, [g 10col o emmeHt] Metro must <br />32 determine which land in that priority is suitable to accommodate the need deficiency <br />33 determined under OAR 660-024-0050. <br />8 <br />
