Or. Admin. R. 660-012-0340 - Land Use Assumptions
(1) Future land use
assumptions developed under this rule are for the purposes of transportation
planning. These land use assumptions are distinct from those used to plan for
residential land needs as provided in ORS
197.296.
(2) A city, county, or Metro must develop and
adopt future land use assumptions for transportation planning consistent with
this rule when preparing a transportation system plan, or zoning a
climate-friendly area or Region 2040 center as provided in OAR
660-012-0325.
(3) Future land use
assumptions must be developed for future years, including but not limited to
the planning horizon year of the transportation system plan, and a common
horizon year for all jurisdictions within the metropolitan area.
(4) Future land use assumptions must be
consistent with the most recent final population forecast as provided in OAR
660-032-0020 or OAR 660-032-0030, as applicable.
(5) Future land use assumptions for
transportation planning must assume existing acknowledged comprehensive plan
designations and policies, and existing land use regulations remaining in force
throughout the planning period; except where these designations, policies, or
regulations are superseded by statute or rule. Future land use assumptions must
assume existing acknowledged urban growth boundaries throughout the planning
period.
(6) Where applicable,
future land use assumptions for transportation planning must allocate growth
assumptions for employment and housing within climate-friendly areas as
provided in OAR 660-012-0320 before allocating growth to other parts of the
city or county.
(7) Future land use
assumptions must be developed at a sufficient level of detail to understand
where future development is expected.
