an adequate supply of land reserved for multiple family development. During the process to identify suitable sites, Marion County Board of County Commissioners removed over 75 acres from the properties identified by City that were located outside City limits but still within the Urban Growth Boundary. City staff interprets that at this time properties currently reserved for multiple family development should not be re- designated or rezoned to further deplete the supply. 2. According to the SACP (November 2000), Goals and Policies, Residential Development, Number 6: Multi -family housing shall be located in areas proximate to existing and planned transportation corridors, public facilities, and services. City staff interprets that Silverton Road and Hollywood Drive are existing transportation corridors. Those streets are classified in the STSP (Salem Transportation System Plan) as a major arterial and a collector, respectively. There is existing multiple family directly south of this property and other residential uses in the area that support continuing the designation and zoning under residential categories. According to the SACP, Goals and Policies, Commercial Development Number 5: Unless the existing development pattern along arterials and collectors commits and area to strip development, new commercial development shall be clustered and located to provide convenience goods and services for neighborhood residents or a wide variety of goods and services for a market area of several neighborhoods. City staff interprets that the re -designation and re- zoning of this property does not provide for clustering opportunity. The change has the potential of creating more commercial strip development along Silverton Road. ZC/CP01-1\ORDER - 5 LUNDEEN
