evaluation is required to establish a repair area on the proposed 1.18-acre parcel. The proposed 321-acre parcel is OK. Marion County Surveyors Office commented: - Properties 10 acres or less must be surveyed per ORS 92.060 (7) and the survey submitted for review. - No survey required for properties greater than ten acres per ORS 92.060 (8). - Survey checking fee required at the time of review. - Property line adjustments shall be recorded with the Marion County Clerks Office per ORS 92.190 (4). Marion County Assessor’s Office provided information regarding taxes on the subject properties. All contacted agencies either failed to comment or stated no objection to the proposal. 7. The criteria for reviewing lot line adjustments within an EFU zone are listed in Chapter 17.136.090(C) MCC. These criteria are as follows: 1. 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 the 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 of the subject parcels is larger than the minimum parcel size, and one of the resulting parcels will be larger still. The criterion is met. 2. If the minimum parcel size in subsection (A)(1) of this section is larger than 80 acres, and a lot or parcel subject to property line adjustment is smaller than the minimum parcel size but larger than 80 acres, the lot or parcel shall not be reduced in size through property line adjustment to less than 80 acres. The minimum parcel size has been determined to be 130 acres. No parcel is between 80 and 130 acres or is being reduced to below 80 acres. The criterion does not apply. 3. Any property line adjustment shall result in a configuration of lots or parcels that are at least as suitable for commercial agriculture as were the parcels prior to the adjustment. The proposed property line adjustment will create a slightly larger parcel in agricultural use, and it will therefore be slightly more suitable for commercial agricultural practices. The PLA is being done to better orient tax lot 800 with its landscaping and eliminate farm lands that are on that parcel. The criterion is met. 4. A property line adjustment may not be used to: a. Decrease the size of a lot or parcel that, before the relocation or elimination of the common property line, is smaller than the minimum lot or parcel size for the applicable zone and contains an existing dwelling or is approved for the construction of a dwelling, if the abutting vacant tract would be increased to a size as large as or larger than the minimum tract size required to qualify the vacant tract for a dwelling; b. Decrease the size of a lot or parcel that contains an existing dwelling or is approved for construction of a dwelling to a size smaller than the minimum lot or parcel size, if the abutting vacant tract would be increased to a size as large as or larger than the minimum tract size required to qualify the vacant tract for a dwelling;
