APPLICANT'S FINDINGS Page 1 0 2 MINOR URBAN BOUNDARY LINE ADJUSTi4ENT (36 R2W 34 and 35 TAX LOT 2200) Jackson County School District No. 6 desires to obtain municipal water services for it's property known as the Future Farmers of America Land Lab and Mel Anhorn Baseball Field located in the vicinity of the northeast quadrant of the City south of where Upton Road runs east and west and north of Bear Creek and has therefore requested that said property be included within the City of Central Point Urban Growth Boundary Area so that it would be eligible for annexation into the City of Central Point. FINDINGS: 1. Subject property is used for the (Future Farmers of America) land laboratory which provides for District 6 animal and crop studies. The property also accommodates the Mel Anhorn Baseball Field. These two facilities provide positive educational and recreational opportunities and thus help to satisfy the continuing demand for such facilities by urban populations (Statewide Goal 11). While said facilities and services do not satisfy a need for hous- ing or large scale employment opportunities, they do help to enhance the livability of the City of Central Point Urban Growth Boundary Area. 2. Subject property does not provide adequate well water to support it's facili- ties and services. City of Central Point water main is located within a one-hundred (100) foot distance from the westerly boundary of the property. Municipal water services will provide for an orderly and economic provision of Urban Facilities and Services as defined in Statewide Planning Goal No. 11. 3. Approximately 15 acres of subject property has a soil capability of Class 1 and is thus very suitable far growing field crops and a portion of the land is used to grow alfalfa, corn, and other crops. The farm use also facili- tates the educational use described in Section 1 of this document, and there- fore serves a greater and higher need by promoting agricultural knowledge, agriculture enterprise and agricultural productivity for future generations. Such activities along with the recreational benefits provided by Mel Anhorn Baseball field lend themselves to increased efficiency of subject property which is proposed to be included within the Central Point UGB. 4. Under the District's strategy, the facility will operate by means of munici- pal water service rather than an inadequate supply of well water. Such services will be made available less expensively, and more efficiently than by way of costly searching, drilling and maintaining poor well water facili- ties. The resulting efficiencies and cost savings gained through providing a stable potable water supply will benefit those who receive educational and recreational services from District No. 6. 5. A major portion of subject property is classified for agricultural use as a Class I with other soils along Bear Creek holding Class 2 and 4 status. A11 agricultural land on subject property will be retained within it's agricultur- al status and soil capability class. Said agricultural status will also be enhanced by approval of proposed Minor Urban Growth Boundary Adjustment and Annexation. hfUBLA2.290/PORES Page 2 of 2 6. School District 46 has developed plans for the Rogue Ecosystem Project which will provide for an advanced biology course, a learning center and an ecological park. The project is planned to occur in three phases and is designed to promote community-wide active participation, understanding and improving the Rogue Basis Ecosystem and man's relationship with it. The District's project, which is underway with the salmon hatchery component of the advanced biology course and the development of nature and agricultural trails, helps to accomplish statewide Planning Goal #5 in that said project will preserve open space and natural biological habitats. Our coming into an urban setting would enhance development. 7. Whether included or not included within the Central UGB area, said facility will exist and operate harmoniously with surrounding land uses. Besides providing an educational facility for increasing populations with the UGB area, said property will: a. preserve agricultural lands b. preserve aesthetics and scenic benefits of open space c. satisfy recreation needs d. facilitate delivery of educational and recreational services.
