The SA zone is inlended to be a farm zone consislent with ORS 215.283. 10. The following code, 17.137.060(A), applies to all conditional uses in the SA zone: 1. The use ii ill not force a signUiccim change in, or significantly increase the cost qf, ciceepted farm or, forest practices on sin -rounding lands clevotecl to farm or foresl use. Laird devoted to farm or forest use does not include farm or forest use on lots or pcmcels upon which a nonfarm or non forest (1welling hcis been approved chid established, in exception areas approved under ORS 197.732, or iii an acknowledged urban growth bounden-j. The access to, and location of, the proposed dwelling will cluster it with adjacent rural residential uses. The 130-foot setback from the northern property line will create a buffer between the proposed dwelling and the stand of timber to the north. The access to the subject parcel is achieved through an existing, although undeveloped, easement extending Little Haven Ln S across AR zoned parcels with dwellings. There are no adjacent agricultural uses that could be disturbed by the proposed placement of a non -farm dwelling. A farm/forest declaratory statement will be a condition of approval to ensure the property owner, and future owners, of the subject parcel are aware that the priority of the SA zone is agricultural and/or timber uses, and that owners and inhabitants of the proposed non -farm dwelling shall not infringe, inhibit, or complain about the effects of these uses on the subject dwelling. Most of the lands surrounding the subject property are not devoted to farm or forest use. With respect to the parcels to the south and southwest that by be considered to be devoted to some type of resource use, the topography of the area is such that it is unlikely that there is any accepted farm or forest practices that would occur adjacent to the subject property. One additional dwelling in the area would not have a significant effect that any of the other residences may have had on the farming and forest uses in the area. The use of the subject parcel for siting a non -farm dwelling using the existing easement to access the proposed building area with the modified setbacks of 130-feet to the north and 100-feet to the east, west, and south, will not cause change in, or significantly increase the cost of, farm or forest uses on surrounding parcels in the area. The criterion is met. 2. Adequcite fire protection and other- rural services are, oi• will be, awailable when the use is established. Applicant states that the subject parcel is within the Salem Suburban Fire District and the Marion County Sheriff's Department. Appellants state that Applicant has not provided evidence upon which it could be determined if obtaining fire access fi•om the fire district is feasible. Salem Fire Department commented that fire department access and water supply will be required prior to development. The subject property is served by the Salem Suburban Fire District. Additional findings to support a determination that "adequate" fire protection could be provided. Development of the site requires fire access from the fire department, and the criteria could be met if fire department access and water supply is established. Applicant states that the subject parcel will have a well, septic, and electrical service on the subject property. Electrical service, provided by PGE, is available on Little Haven Ln S and could be extended via the undeveloped easement that travels over parcels 083W07A002000, 083W07A002301, and 083W07A002300 to the subject parcel. Permits for a well will need to be filed for with the Oregon Water Resources Department. Permits related to a septic system will CU 24-006 — ORDER Joy M. Blackman Revocable Living Trust Page 9
