December 3-4, 2015 - LCDC Salem <br />Agenda Item 4, Attachment H <br />1 (A) The likely amount of development that could occur on the land within the planning <br />2 period; <br />3 (B) The likely cost of facilities and services; and, <br />4 (C) Any substantial evidence collected by or presented to the local government regarding <br />5 how similarly situated land in the region has, or has not, developed over time. <br />6 (c) As used in this section, "impediments to service provision" may include but are not <br />7 limited to: <br />8 (A) Major rivers or other water bodies that would require new bridge crossings to serve <br />9 planned urban development; <br />10 (B) Topographic features such as canyons or ridges with slopes exceeding 40 per cent <br />11 and vertical relief of greater than 80 feet; <br />12 (C) Freeways, rail lines, or other restricted access corridors that would require new grade <br />13 separated crossings to serve planned urban development; <br />14 (D) Significant scenic, natural, cultural or recreational resources on an acknowledged <br />15 plan inventory and subject protection measures under the plan or implementing <br />16 regulations [ALT: or on a published state or federal inventory] that would prohibit or <br />17 substantially impede the placement or construction of necessary public facilities and <br />18 services. <br />19 (8) Land may not be excluded from the preliminary study area based on a finding of <br />20 impracticability that is primarily a result of existing development patterns.
