Or. Admin. Code § 660-003-0033 - Expedited Notice Procedure for Acknowledgment

(1) When during an acknowledgment review, a city or county changes its plan or land use regulations after the comment period provided for in either OAR 660-003-0020(1) or 660-003-0032(1), the director may determine that additional notice to the public or persons who have submitted comments or objections is not necessary prior to consideration of the jurisdiction's acknowledgment request by the commission. In making this determination, the director shall carefully consider the complexity of the goal compliance issues involved, the nature and number of comments and objections previously received, the opportunities provided by the jurisdiction for public review and comment on recent amendments and the length of time between the adoption of the recent amendments and the date of commission action on the jurisdiction's acknowledgment request. The department shall work closely with persons who have previously submitted comments and objections and the jurisdiction to resolve any conflicts concerning the additional amendments prior to commission action on the acknowledgment request.

(2) The director may forego additional notice to the public and persons who have submitted comments or objections only if the jurisdiction provides general notice to the public and notifies persons who submitted comments or objections in writing of an opportunity to participate in the local hearing(s) regarding the adoption of the additional amendments. The jurisdiction shall send a copy of the written notice to all persons who submitted comments or objections and to the department in Salem.

(3) When the commission considers the jurisdiction's request for acknowledgment, the commission shall allow testimony from the public or persons who have submitted comments or objections which allege inadequate opportunity for review of the jurisdiction's amendment adopted after the comment deadline. If the commission determines that further notice and opportunity for comment is needed, or if additional opportunity to file exceptions to the director's report under ORS 197.251(3) is required, it shall instruct the director to provide such notice and opportunity for comment before the commission acts on the jurisdiction's acknowledgment request.
