November 2014 Page 1 of 23 002 ATTACHMENT "A___" PART 1. INTRODUCTION As part of the Regional Plan Elements it is required that the City prepare and adopt for each of its eight(8) urban reserve areas (URAs) a Conceptual Land Use Plane and a Conceptual Transportation Plan3prior to or in conjunction with a UGB amendment within a given URA. This document addresses both conceptual plans, which are collectively referred to as the CP-4D Concept Plan ('Concept Plan'). Figure 1 illustrates CP-4D's relationship to the City and the other urban reserve areas. As used in this report the term 'concept plan' CENTRAL refers to a document POINT • setting forth a written and illustrated set of general actions designed to achieve a desired goal • that will be further refined over time as the planning process moves ti from the general " � `�� " (concept plan) to the n ; 4 ; �, �,, specific (site e Logend . development) .

Central Point applicable performance Urban Reserves Areas indicators of the Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan (GBCVRP) will be applied to CP-4D.The concept plan is a guide; it has no force of law and therefore does not address compliance with the Oregon Statewide Land Use Planning Goals, applicability of land use planning law, or comprehensive plan compliance,other than the Regional Plan Element.These items will be appropriately addressed at some other time as 1 City of Central Point Ordinance 1964 2 City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan,Regional Plan Element,Section 4.1 Performance Indicators, subsection 4.1.7 3 City of Central Point Comprehensive Plan,Regional Plan Element,Section 4.1 Performance Indicators, subsection 4.1.8 Page 2 of 20 003 ATTACHMENT "J,_"9 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 addressed at such time as the area's planning proceeds through inclusion in the urban growth boundary, annexation,zoning,site plan approval,and ultimately development,with each step being guided by the Concept Plan. The Concept Plan illustrates the City's basic development program for CP-4D;which is presented in Part 2 of this document.The remainder of the document (Part 3) is dedicated to providing background information used in preparation of the Concept Plan, including findings of compliance with the land use distribution and applicable Performance Indicators in the City's Regional Plan Element. In summary the Concept Plan has been prepared in accordance with the Regional Plan Element and Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan including all applicable performance indicators set forth in these documents.The development concept for CP-4D compliments and supports local and regional objectives relative to land use distribution and needed transportation corridors identified in the Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan. PART 2. THE CONCEPT PLAN The long-term objective for CP-4D is two-fold. First,to provide the physical connection between the City and a major future employment area (CP-1B)as that area develops and becomes a part of the City. The second objective is to provide enhanced opportunities for open space and recreational uses that will take advantage of a regional recreation resource,the Bear Creek Greenway. The Concept Plan is comprised of two elements: a. The Conceptual Land Use Plan ('Land Use Plan'). The primary objective of the Land Use Plan is to refine the land use categories and spatial distribution of those categories throughout CP-4D. This is necessary because the Regional Plan Element only addresses land use in terms of general land use types, i.e. residential,employment, etc., and percentage distribution of the land use. The Regional Plan Element distributes land uses within CP-4D into two basic land use classifications;Open Space/Parks (99%), and Residential (1%).The Land Use Plan for CP-4D refines these allocations by aligning them with the appropriate Comprehensive Plan Land Use and Zoning designations in the City's Comprehensive Plan. Those designations are illustrated in Figure 2,tabulated in Table 1 as follows: i. Residential.The Comprehensive Plan's Very Low Density Residential designation was applied to a single one(1)acre parcel(tax lot 36 2W 34D TL230)on the basis that: Page 3 of 23 004 ATTACHMENT "A___" _. ___ , CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 • It is consistent with the existing Residential Low Density(R- L) land use designation and zoning for the area immediately to the east (Boes Subdivision);and • It abuts EFU zoned lands to the north and will be subject to the agricultural buffering requirements of CPMC 17.71; which requires significant setbacks from the agricultural use. At such time as the parcel is annexed it will be rezoned R-L, or an equivalent future zoning district, consistent with development to the east. ii. Parks and Open Space.The Comprehensive Plan's Parks and Open Space designation is consistent with the Regional Plan Element and allows for the continued use and improvement of the Bear Creek Greenway system. It also provides opportunities for passive recreational/open space use, i.e. hiking trails, picnic areas, Frisbee golf,that will both serve the local and regional community, and compliment the Bear Creek Greenway. Compatible zoning for the Parks and Open Space designation would be either Bear Creek Greenway(BCG)or Open Space/Parks (OS), or a combination of both.

The Conceptual Transportation Plan ('Transportation Plan"). The only regionally significant transportation corridor affecting CP-4D is the Bear Creek Greenway.The Concept Plan identifies the Bear Creek Greenway as an element of the plan (Figure 2, CP-4D Concept Plan)and Page 4 of 23 005 ATTACHMENT CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 includes policies that encourage the continued use and improvement of the Bear Creek Greenway. c. Implementation Guidelines The following guidelines are intended to serve as future action items: Policy CP-4D.1 Land Use:At time of inclusion in the City's urban growth boundary(UGB)the property will be shown on the City's General Land Use Plan Map as illustrated in the CP-4D Concept Plan, Figure 2. Policy CP-4D.2 Bear Creek Greenway:The Open Space/Parks land will be planned and improved in a manner that offers passive recreational opportunities to the public and is compatible with and compliments the Bear Creek Greenway. Policy CP-4D.3 Bear Creek Greenway:Jackson County will continue to own and operate the Bear Creek Greenway system and the County and City will coordinate open space/park plans within CP-4D to the mutual benefit of the Bear Creek Greenway system. Policy CP-4D.4 Streets: The public street system will be allowed to extend into CP-4D only to the extent necessary to serve the needs of future open space uses within CP-4D. Potential access points are from Dean Creek Road, Boes Avenue,and Old Upton Road.Through access will not be permitted. Policy CP-4D.5 Irrigation District Coordination. There are no Rogue River Valley Irrigation District facilities within CP-4D. However,as properties within CP-4D are included within the City's urban growth boundary, and further proceed through the development process, i.e. annexation,zoning,site development,the City and property owner/developer shall collaborate with RRVID as outlined in the protocols set forth in Jackson County's Agricultural Lands Element. Policy CP-4D.6 Agricultural Lands. Land use actions within CP-4D shall coordinate with the Rogue River Valley Irrigation District in the manner set forth in the County's Agricultural Lands Element policy pertaining to irrigation districts and land use planning. Policy CP-4D.7 Concept Plan Modification. Modifications to the Concept Plan shall be subject to the same review and collaboration procedures used in approving the original Concept Plan,and shall be processed by the County as a Type 4 permit.

SUPPORT FINDINGS The findings present in this section provide both background information and address the Regional Plan Element's Performance Indicators. a. Current Land Use Characteristics This section describes the general character of CP-4D in its current condition. Natural Landscape:With the exception of one one-acre parcel used for residential purposes and Dean Creek Road, CP-4D remains undisturbed. Bear Creek traverses the area (south to north)and is the predominant physical feature.Associated with Bear Creek are areas of flooding and wetlands. Cultural Landscape:CP-4D(Bear Creek Area) is a triangular-shaped 83 acre tract that runs along the northeastern side of I-5 connecting the current city limits to CP-1B(Figure 1, Central Point Urban Reserves).Table 2 identifies; by assessor number,acreage,zoning,comp plan designation,and ownership,the seven (7) properties that comprise CP-4D. The City and County account for 99%of CP-4D and are currently used for open space purposes as part of the Bear Creek Greenway system (Figure 3,Aerial Map). Much of the area is impacted by a variety of environmental and agricultural constraints.The eastern third of CP-4D is within the 100-year floodplain of Bear Creek(Figure 4, Floodplain Map) and the area is also impacted by wetlands.

There is a small one(1) acre parcel designated for residential use (UR-1), which is developed with a single-family home(see adjacent aerial photo). Based on CPMC 17.71, Agricultural Mitigation,the existing dwelling is classified as an Urban Receptor, High-Sensitivity 4 (H),while the abutting EFU lands,which are used for orchard production,are • f classified as an Intensive Use.Given these two classification the dwelling SO 'X Nom does not meet the current minimum agricultural buffering setback requirements (100—200 feet)from the abutting EFU lands to the north. Consequently;and regardless of zoning,when annexed the property will be classified as legal non-conforming and subject to the requirements of the City's Non-Conforming regulations (CPMC 17.56). c. Existing Infrastructure Water Currently, public water service is not available to CP-4D, but can be easily extended from the Boes Subdivision. Sanitary Sewer There is a Rogue Valley sanitary sewer trunk line running north-south through CP-4D(see Figure 6, Utilities). Storm Drainage CP-4D does not have an improved storm drainage system and relies on Bear Creek for its storm drainage needs.

None of the three streets offers through access. Dean Creek Road extends southerly from Blackwell Road into CP-4D terminating in a parking area for the Bear Creek Greenway.There are no plans to extend Dean Creek Road further south. Old Upton Road,although abandoned west of its intersection with Raymond Way,does provide public right-of-way frontage at the southern edge of CP-4D. Boes Avenue provides easterly access to CP-4D as it dead-ends into the City owned property. Irrigation District CP-4D is located within the Rogue River Valley Irrigation District (RRVID).Some of the properties within CP-4D have water rights, but no irrigation service,while other properties have no water rights and no irrigation service(see Figure 7, Irrigation). CP-4D does not have any dedicated irrigation facilities within its boundaries. Most of the property abutting CP-4D on the east and north are in commercial agricultural use and provided irrigation services by RRVID. It is not anticipated, that implementation of the Concept Plan I cause future conflicts with irrigation services, or the current agricultural uses.

Applicable Performance Indicators The following addresses each applicable performance indicator per Table 3: 4.1.5.Committed Residential Density. Land within the URA and currently within an Urban Growth Boundary(UGB) but outside the existing City Limit shall be built, at a minimum,to the following residential densities.This requirement can be offset by increasing the residential density in the City Limit. Table 4. REGIONAL PLAN ELEMENT MINIMUM DENSITY REQUIREMENT FOR CENTRAL POINT City Central Point 679 ,y 4.1.5.1. Prior to annexation,each city shall establish (or, if they exist already, shall adjust) minimum densities in each of its residential zones such that if all areas build out to the minimum allowed the committed densities shall be met.This shall be made a condition of approval of a UGB amendment. Finding:Of the 52 acres in CP-4D the Regional Plan reserves one (1)acre for residential use. The one(1)acre reservation is consolidated in a single parcel(36 2W 34D TL230),which is currently developed for single-family residential use.As discussed in Part 3, Section(b)the property abuts commercial agricultural land and because of the placement of the existing dwelling cannot meet the minimum agricultural setbacks required in CPMC 17.71, necessary to accommodate a second dwelling unit regardless of the zoning. The Concept Plan applies the City's Very Low Density Residential(R-L)land use and zoning to this property on the basis that the R-L zoning: Page 16 of 23 017 ATTACHMENT " A f9 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 ~ • Is consistent with the existing Residential Low Density(R-L)land use designation and zoning for the area immediately to the east(Boes Subdivision);and • The property abuts commercial agricultural lands to the north and will be subject to the agricultural buffering requirements of CPMC 17.71;which requires significant setbacks from the agricultural use, precluding any further development of the property. The R-L zoning district has a minimum density of 1.8 dwelling units per gross acre,which is significantly below the committed average minimum density required in the Regional Plan Element(See Table 4 above). However,the density Performance Indicator does allow exceptions to the minimum provided that any decreases in density are off-set by increasing the residential density elsewhere within the City's urban area. In Table 5 an accounting of the Gross Buildable Acreage within the City/UGB by zoning,current minimum allowable density per gross acre for each zoning district, minimum dwelling unit yield,and the average minimum density per gross acre defines the City's current minimum build- out density. Based on current zoning the City's Gross Buildable Acreage is capable of accommodating a minimum build-out density of 7.1 units per gross acre,which exceeds the current planning period's minimum 6.9,but is less than the long-term planning period's 7.9, required in the Regional Plan Element.Table 5 further illustrates (Adjusted Totals)that the use of R-L zoning in CP-4D,when added to the City's current gross buildable acreage,only fractionally reduces the average minimum gross density, but not below the current planning period's required minimum gross density of 6.9. Conclusion:Complies. With the use of the lower density R-L zoning the City's committed density is essentially unchanged and remains compliant with the current planning period's required minimum residential density standard.The City acknowledges that in order to maintain both the current and long-term planning period's minimum density requirement that: 1) Higher density zone changes may need to occur within the City as necessary to increase the average minimum density identified in Table 5; Page 17 of 23 018 ATTACHMENT " 4 99 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 2) Future residential densities in the remaining URA Conceptual Land Use Plans will need to either meet or exceed the minimum established densities in the Regional Plan Element;or 3) A combination of the above.

Measurement and definition of qualified development shall be in accordance with adopted RTP methodology.The requirement is considered met if the city or the region overall is achieving the targets or minimum qualifications,whichever is greater. This requirement can be offset by increasing the percentage of dwelling units and/or employment in the City Limit.This requirement is applicable to all participating cities. Finding:Aside from the single one acre parcel there are no proposed land uses within CP-4D that are candidates for mixed-use/pedestrian friendly areas. Conclusion:Not Applicable. Page 18 of 23 019 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 ATTACHMENT " 4.1.7.Conceptual Transportation Plans. Conceptual Transportation Plans shall be prepared early enough in the planning and development cycle that the identified regionally significant transportation corridors within each of the URAs can be protected as cost-effectively as possible by available strategies and funding.A Conceptual Transportation Plan for a URA or appropriate portion of a URA shall be prepared by the City in collaboration with the Rogue Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization, applicable irrigation districts,Jackson County,and other affected agencies,and shall be adopted by Jackson County and the respective city prior to or in conjunction with a UGB amendment within that URA. 4.1.7.1.Transportation Infrastructure.The Conceptual Transportation Plan shall identify a general network of regionally significant arterials under local jurisdiction,transit corridors, bike and pedestrian paths,and associated projects to provide mobility throughout the Region (including intra-city and inter-city, if applicable). Finding:Preparation of the Concept Plan included a review of the City's Transportation System Plan,the County's Transportation System Plan, and the RVMPO's 2013-2038Regional Transportation Plan.The only regionally significant transportation corridor within CP-4D is the Bear Creek Greenway system,which is predominantly pedestrian and bicycle oriented. The CP-4D Concept Plan acknowledges the existence of the Bear Creek Greenway system and includes guidelines that protect and enhance the Bear Creek Greenway. Aside from the Bear Creek Greenway there are no other regionally significant transportation corridors. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.8. Conceptual Land Use Plans:A proposal for a UGB Amendment into a designated URA shall include a Conceptual Land Use Plan prepared by the City in collaboration with the Rogue Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization,applicable irrigation districts, Jackson County,and other affected agencies for the area proposed to be added to the UGB as follows: 4.1.8.1.Target Residential Density:The Conceptual Land Use Plan shall provide sufficient information to demonstrate how the residential densities of Section 4.1.5 above will be met at full build-out of the area added through the UGB amendment. Finding:See Finding 4.1.5. Conclusion:Complies. Page 19 of 23 020 ATTACHMENT " " CP-40(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 4.1.8.2.Land Use Distribution.The Conceptual Land Use Plan shall indicate how the proposal is consistent with the general distribution of land uses in the Regional Plan,especially where a specific set of land uses were part of the rationale for designating land which was determined by the Resource Lands Review Committee to be commercial agricultural land as part of a URA, which applies to the following URAs:CP-1B,CP-1C, CP-4D,CP-6A, CP-2B, MD-4, MD-6, MD-7mid, MD-7n, PH-2,TA-2,TA-4.

CP-4D Concept Plan Finding:As illustrated in Table 6 the proposed land use distributions in the CP- 4D Concept Plan are consistent with those presented in the Regional Plan Element. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.8.3. Transportation Infrastructure. The Conceptual Land Use Plan shall include the transportation infrastructure required in Section 4.1.7 above. Finding:The required transportation infrastructure per 4.1.7 is included in the CP-4D Concept Plan (see Finding 4.1.7). Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.8.4. Mixed Use/Pedestrian Friendly Areas.The Conceptual Land Use Plan shall provide sufficient information to demonstrate how the commitments of Section 4.1.6 above will be met at full build-out of the area added through the UGB amendment. Finding:See Finding 4.1.6. Conclusion:Not Applicable. 4.1.9.Conditions.The following conditions apply to specific Urban Reserve Areas: 4.1.9.2. CP-4D. Use of CP-40 is predominantly restricted to open space and park land with the exception of an existing one acre home site. Page 20 of 23 0 2 1 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area) Concept Plan,2014 ATTACHMENT Finding:As noted in Table 4 the CP-4D Concept Plan is consistent with the Regional Plan Element's land use type distribution,which allocates 99% of the gross acreage to open space/parks use.Residential uses have been restricted to the existing one acre home site. Conclusion 4.1.9.2:Complies. 4.1.9.3.Roadway Limitation. No roadways are to extend North, East,or West from CP-4D. Finding:Currently there are three public streets that access CP-4D;Dean Creek Road from the north,Boes Avenue from the east,and Old Upton Road from the south.The CP-4D Concept Plan does not propose the extension of any roadways from CP-4D. However, it is proposed that Boes Avenue and/or Old Upton Road may be extended westerly and northerly as necessary to provide access/parking to serve the future open space and recreation uses proposed for CP-4D.The determination of the extent of the extension of these two roads will be subject to more detailed identification and design of the future open space development of CP-4D.Through access shall not be permitted. Conclusion 4.1.9.3:Consistent, no roadways will be extended from CP-4D. 4.1.9.5 Central Point URA,Gibbon/Forest Acres. Prior to the expansion of the Central Point Urban Growth Boundary into any Urban Reserve Area,the City and Jackson County shall adopt an agreement(Area of Mutual Planning Concern)for the management of Gibbons/Forest Acres Unincorporated Containment Boundary. Finding:The City will coordinate with Jackson County and enter into an Area of Mutual Planning Concern Agreement prior to UGB expansion into CP-4D. Conclusion 4.1.9.5: Complies 4.1.10.Agricultural Buffering. Participating jurisdictions designating Urban Reserve Areas shall adopt the Regional Agricultural Buffering program in Volume 2,Appendix Ill into their Comprehensive Plans as part of the adoption of the Regional Plan.The agricultural buffering standards in Volume 2, Appendix Ill shall be adopted into their land development codes prior to a UGB amendment. Finding:CP-4D abuts EFU zoned lands along its easterly border(see Figure 4). However, the primary use of CP-4D will be for passive recreational use, which at time of design/development has the space and use assets that will easily comply with the City's Agricultural Mitigation Ordinance. Page 21 of 23 022 ATTACHMENT CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 "�S9 The CP-4D Concept Plan also includes an existing one acre residential parcel.This parcel currently contains a single-family residence, but has the potential to be further partitioned. In addition to having to comply with the City's Agricultural Mitigation Ordinance the CP-4D Concept Plan designates the property for low density residential density(R-L),which is consistent with the residential neighborhood to the east. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.13 Urban Growth Boundary Amendment. Pursuant to ORS 197.298 and Oregon Administrative Rule 660-021-0060, URAs designated in the Regional Plan are the first priority lands used for a UGB amendment by participating cities. Finding:The Regional Plan Element includes a provision that requires adoption of a concept plan prior to urban growth boundary expansion into an urban reserve area. The CP-4D Concept Plan addresses this requirement in anticipation of an urban growth boundary application into CP-4D. Conclusion 4.1.9.5: Complies. 4.1.17. Greater Coordination with the RVMPO. The participating jurisdictions shall collaborate with the Rogue Valley Metropolitan Organization (RVMPO)to: 4.1.17.1. Prepare the Conceptual Transportation Plans identified in Section 4.1.7. 4.1.17.2. Designate and protect the transportation infrastructure required in the Conceptual Transportation Plans identified in Section 4.1.7 to ensure adequate transportation connectivity, multimodal use,and minimize right of way costs. 4.1.17.3. Plan and coordinate the regionally significant transportation strategies critical to the success of the adopted Regional Plan including the development of mechanisms to preserve rights-of-way for the transportation infrastructure identified in the Conceptual Transportation Plans; and Finding:The CP-4D Concept Plan was prepared in collaboration with RVMPO with attention given to the effective implementation of the Regional Plan. On August 13, 2014 the RVMPO Technical Advisory Committee reviewed and approved the Concept Plon. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.18. Future Coordination with the RVCOG.The participating jurisdictions shall collaborate with the Rogue Valley Council of Governments on future regional planning that assists the participating jurisdictions in complying with the Regional Plan Page 22 of 23 0,43 CP-4D(Bear Creek Area)Concept Plan,2014 ATTACHMENT " ss performance indicators.This includes cooperation in a region-wide conceptual planning process if funding is secured. Finding:Any future modifications to the Concept Plan, per Policy CP-4D.7,will be prepared in collaboration with the RVCOG. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.20 Agricultural Task Force. Finding:The Agricultural task Force has been formed and has submitted their recommendations to the County in the form of amendments to the County's Agricultural Lands Element. The City has reviewed the proposed amendments. The proposed policy addressing coordination with affected irrigation districts is the only Agricultural Task Force recommendation that pertains to the Concept Plan.The Concept Plan has been coordinated with the Rogue River Valley Irrigation District(RRVID)with no anticipated negative impacts to RRVID's ability to continue providing irrigation services.A policy(CP-4D.6) is part of the Concept Plan and is intended to assure continued coordination with RRVID as the Concept Plan is implemented. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.21. Park Land. For purposes of UGB amendments,the amount and type of park land included shall be consistent with the requirements of OAR 660-024-0040 or the park land need shown in the acknowledged plans. Finding:Although not required at this time it is worth noting that OAR 660-024-0040 addresses determination of land need necessary to justify expansion of an urban growth boundary. The CP-4D Concept Plan serves only to illustrate consistency with the Regional Plan Element land use allocations for parks and open space as shown in Table 6,and does not waive the requirements of OAR 660-024-0040. Conclusion:Complies. 4.1.22 Buildable Lands Definition. Finding:The term "buildable lands" as defined in OAR 660-008-0005(2)is used by the City in managing its Buildable Lands Inventory and is the basis for determining future need. Conclusion:Complies.
