5. The applicants are proposing to adjust the property lines on a 94.42-acre parcel and a 38.37-acre parcel to create a 131.26-acre parcel and a 2.00-acre parcel. The intension is to transfer the farmable land on tax lot 600 to tax lot 100, so the owners can sell the homesite they do not need while retaining the fields for their farming operation. 6. Various agencies were contacted about the proposal and given an opportunity to comment. Public Works Land Development and Engineering Permits (LDEP) requested that the following be included in the land use decision. Requirements: A. The parcel reconfiguration will leave the southernly expansion of TL 100 on the south side of Hazelgreen Road without direct access. Unless there were to be an access easement granted over TL 600 or permissive use for TL 100 at the existing driveway, then an Access Permit would be required to install a new driveway approach on Hazelgreen Road or Howell Prairie Road property frontage. Marion County Surveyor’s Office commented: 1) No survey required for properties greater than ten acres per ORS 92.060 (8). 2) Properties 10 acres or less must be surveyed per ORS 92.060 (7) and the survey submitted for review. 3) Survey checking fee required at the time of review. 4) Property line adjustment deeds shall be recorded with the Marion County Clerk’s Office. Per ORS 92.190 (4). Marion County Building commented: “According to the proposed site plan with proposed property lines identified, if the property maintains the same farm deferral according to Marion County Assessor, the state building code does not apply to the existing farm building adjacent to the proposed south property line. If the property loses the farm deferral designation, then the state building code will apply to the existing structure, and any new property line established less than 3 feet to the existing structure may require the existing structure to be updated with fire resistive materials on the exterior wall closest to the new established property line. Discussion with a building plans examiner is recommended.” Marion County Septic commented: An existing system evaluation is required to verify that the septic system meets a 10’ setback to all proposed property lines. Marion County Assessor’s Office provided information regarding taxes on the subject properties. All other contacted agencies either failed to comment or stated no objection to the proposal. 7.

When one or more lots or parcels subject to a proposed property line adjustment are larger than the minimum parcel size pursuant to subsection (A)(1) of this section, the same number of lots or parcels shall be as large or larger than the minimum parcel size after the adjustment. When all lots or parcels subject to the proposed adjustment are as large or larger than the minimum parcel size, no lot or parcel shall be reduced below the applicable minimum parcel size. If all lots or parcels are smaller than th e minimum parcel size before the property line adjustment, the minimum parcel size pursuant to this section does not apply to those lots or parcels. One lot involved in the proposal is larger than the minimum parcel size of 80-acres. The applicants proposal would result in the parcel that is already larger than the minimum lot size gaining more land while the parcel that is
