File No. 09107. A public hearin~ ta eonsider the }~roposed Jackson County Pl~n A~nendment regardii~g the Greater Bear G'~eek Yaltey Regivnal Pla~a. Applicant; Ja~kson County Piatuting 1Vlanager pon Burt stated that the purpvse of this evenin~'s meeting was ta take input on the Greater Bear Greek Regional Plan, with the intent of forwarding a recommendation tc~ the City Coune'sl regarding the Plan and i#s cansistency witli the draft Plan as referenced in the Pattieipant's A~reement, Tl~ Regional Pibblem Salvin~ Participaaits A~eement states that the draft Plan s~~all beeome the "adopted Plan" upon 1'lannirsg ~'omrnission Minutes March 16, 2010 Page 2 conclusion of J~tckson County's compi~ehensive plan r~d land use re~,ulation ~ndinent process. Mr. Burt s~ressed that this was not a land use decision. Jackson County is goirng throu~h a lanci use decision and therefoxe, any camments made by concerncd citizens will be forwardeci to the Cou~cil and to the Jackson County Planning Commission by staf~: In orcier to obtain "legal" standing in this matter, it is imperative that anyone with ~oncerns go befare the Jackson County Planning Comrnission. Since the City initially reviewed the draft plan, there have been son~e minar changes made whioh we ~~vill disouss and consequently clear up any cancerns that eommiftee members might have. Mr. Bu~t painted out that Jackson County wauld have the ultimate respansibility for finalizing the plan and once it is adop~ed by thc Land Conscrv~,tion and Developmcnt Commission (LCDC}, cach city invblved in thc process would bc responsible for modifying its cornprehensive plan, preparing amendments and forwarding the information along to LCDC who will conduct a review and take action. Mr: Burt stated tliat the reason for this process is to taice a look at long range land needs tc~ ~ccommodate projected increases in popuiatian and it is incurnhent up~n the pfu~ticip~irts in the pr~eess to forvv~~•d any concel~s expressed at th~e public hearin~. Dan Burt then presenled a slic~e presentation, recapping the key cansiderations vi th~e Plan, i#s gaals, implementation of those gc~als, policies, gross aareag~ needs and land us~ dis~ri~aution in each of the proposed Urban Reserve areas. Don Burt advised committee members that as ~ result of a Cibzens Advisory Conunittee ineeting that w~s held on 1Vlarch 9, 2010, specific concerns were raised for cons~deration. ,.the addition of one tax lot ta CP-4D. The taac lot is approximately one acre in size, has a residence on il, anc~ is classii"ied as an excep~ian property; elaritication of the land use designation for the Littl~ League fields and the Boy Scout headquart~rs in CP-6B; and a property owner in CP-6A does not wish to be included in the Ur6an Reserve Area. This property is also approximately ane aere in size azzd has a residence on it. Community Developmenl Director Tom Humphrey explained that this process has been going on for over t~n y~ars. Mr. I~umphrey said that when a city adjusts its urban growth boundary (UGB), under current State law the addition of new lands wauld come fram urban reserve areas. If there were no urban reserve areas to draw from, the city would then look to exeeption lands in o~~der ta acquire the aer~eage needed for develo~ment. By creatin~ urban reserve areas, we don't have to ~o into exc~ption iands. It is harder to develop exception lands. Larger parcels can be master planned and thc fiscal impaet of eYt~nding services to properties is minimized. The public portion of the hearing was opened Planr~ing Co~nmission Mi~utes March 1 cf, 2~10 Pa~e 3 The frst citi;~en lo come forward was Duane Mallams with questions ta staff regarding the calculation of densities. Don Burt stated that the Plan's prap~sed density f4r Central Poi~x~t ranged between 6.00 and 7.30 units per aere and this would be reflected in the comprehensive plan. Ivir. Burt also pointed out the acreage for agricultural buffering would need to eome out Qf the totai acreage. Ivlr. Mailarr-~ asked if the ~creage calculation would be reduced hy the ntunber af existing i~esidents on properties that will be brought in, fuid Mr. Burt explained to hitn how that would be ealculated. Warren H~ri:on, 2S2S Scenic Avenue, came forward in support af the R~gional Plan and stafed that he wanted lo be included. Katie Mallams was th~ next person to ~ome forwaxd and expr~ss~d conc~rns about r~sourc;~ lands contain~d in CP-bA, Gibbon/Forest Acres a,s an area of mutual conccrn and the proposed urbanization of the Tolo area (CF- 1B). Sheri Sonnen, 2130 Boes Avenue, came farward and stated that she would like to have her ~roperty included in an urban reserve area in orderr to get city water. Larry Martin, 2673 Taylar Road, came forw~rd in support of the Re~ional Plan. Tim Higinbatham, 2744 Taylor Road, came forward in favor of the Reginnal Ylan, stating that he ~hought it was remarkablc that people had stayed with the process all this time and that tac,~t ~lc~n~ spoke to th~ integrity af the people invalved. Mr. Higinbotlnam continued that he had an agricultural background in the Rogue Valley, and that it wasn't an area you would go to on purpase for farming because af the prevalence of hard pan in the soil. He felt that the term "open space" would be more appropriately used to desaribe a lot of the proposed urban reserve I~nds. The Pltuinin~ Commission took a short break ~'ram 7:15 p.m. to 7:25 p.m. June Broci~, 2815 Taylor Raad, came farward to say that she and h~r husband were very much in fav~r of the Ptan. The public hearing was then closed. Tam Humpluey aslced to address sorne af the issues raised and explained that in thc be~innin~ of the process, different land us~ areas wcrc look~d at. The Tolo area was viewed as an ar~a of mutual concern and was projected for future growth. As a result, a water line was extended ta that employment base. The County has zonsd the area for future development as the City wauld be better able to manage this area and not the County. There at~ a lot of unique qualities to t~~e Tol~ area, rnainly to be utilized as a juncture of transportation facilities. Gibban Acres is another ar~a considered for expansivn but is beyand one-half mile fron~ the existing UGB, would require significant infrastxucture improvements, and has many environmental coneerns. In respanse to a question raised by Mike OJive~~ about the potential far future farming in the valley, Mr. Humphrey saad that w~e will preserve some agricultural lar~d for this purpose but that the mast productivc areas wcre Scven Oaks and property along Bear Creelc. ~la~neng Commiysfan llfinul~,Y March 16, 2U1(1 Page 4 Connie Nioczygemba ~sked staff what needed tc~ be dvne to fix the designation of lands for Little League and Bay Scout usc. Don Buct stated that staff w~uld need to be directed to prep~e a resolution to forward ta the City Cocu~cil, subject to any items of concern of the Planning Commissian. The Planning Cammassion then discassed issues raised by residents and were all in agreemenl about adding the properf,y loeated at 2130 Boes Avenue to Urbttn Reserve Area (U~tA} CP-4D and ohanging the land use designation of the Little Le~gue and Boy Scout properties in URA CP-GB to refleot an institutianal land usc in order to protect the eurrent use of the property from future development. The Commission then discussed the Mallams proper~y ~n Herita~e Rond (CP-6A) and all a~reed that there was no justiFcatian for creating an island within that URA and all comrnissioners agreed that they wcre concerncd with the bigger picture. Jus#in Hurley made A mot~ton to direct ~taff to ~repare a resolution for consideration by the Comrnission a~E its next regularly ~cl~eduled meeting whieh reflects the C~mmission's recommendations ~n the issues raised.

'1'he crossing is slated to be signalized, and consfructic~n would build up th~ ro~d ttt HighwAy 99. Mr. Humphrey said that there ha~d been a s~ight increase in housing e~nstruetion in the ~o~~ ~~aa,400 range. The Cheese Festival is taking place this weckend at the Rogue Creamery. In addition, the Creamery is talkin~ about expanding its cold storage. VIII, ADMINISTRATIVE REVIE~S IK. M~SGFL1~A1t1R0US X. ADJOURNMEI~IT Mike O~iver made a motion to adjaurn the meeting.

Qn March 3 I, 2Q09, Bank of the Cascades ~eceived the property in Iieu of foreclasurc. The bank requesied and received a one year extension of the original site plait approval to April 1, 2Q I0. 4n March 19, 20 ~ 0, the Applicant requested an additional one year extension of the site plan. If gran#ed, the revised expiration dabe would be April 1, 201 ~. The Planning Commission may extend the site plan approva[ fc~r an additianal period vf one year as provit~.ed by CPMC Section ~ 7.72.0'74. Precedi~~g the original app~•ov~al of the site plasi application, the Appli.cant applied for and received a tentative ~ve {5) ~ot subdivision plan for the project {File No. d7430). The tentative plan has since expired. Any future proposals for subdividing #he property will require a new ten#ative plan application. ISSUES: The rec~uest to extend the one year expiration date for the ~zte plan application is ihe third such request. Section 17.72.070 is silent on th.e number af exbensions allowed. FINA~NGS: The request fnr a ane year extension was received in a timely inanner. The cune~rt eeonomic ~ environment ~s referenc~d as justificatian for the sxtensian. Condi~ions affecting the original approval of the site plan have not changed. The ~pplicatifln conf~rnis to the Transpot~tation Systam Plan, and Comprehensive Plan polieiss have not been modified. CpMC requirements retated tu exte,~sions and tentati.ve approvats may be reviewed and revised but wi~l not have an impact on the current request. ~~ Page 1 of 2 ATTACHMENTS: Attachment "A" - Request for ex~ension Ietter dated.
