3. The properties are on the southern edge of the City of Woodburn’s Urban Growth Boundary. To the north the land is zoned as RMN, RSN, P, and SP. These are residential, public, and open spaces designations. To the northwest the property is zoned residential by the City of Woodburn; while the predominate zone to the east is low density residential. To the south of the subject parcels are properties in an EFU (exclusive farm use) zone in Marion County that are engaged in larger scale agriculture and some residential uses. 4. The applicants are proposing to adjust the property lines of two of their parcels (Parcel II and IV) to consolidate the Parcel II completely on the west side of the railroad line rather than straddling the railroad line. This will transfer approximately 3.28 acres to Parcel IV. 5. Various agencies were contacted with requests for comment: Marion County Building Inspection Division commented: “No Building Inspection concerns. Permit(s) are required to be obtained prior to development and/or utilities installation on private property, if proposed.” Marion County Surveyor’s Office commented: - No survey required for properties greater than ten acres per ORS 92.060 (8). - Properties 10 acres or less must be surveyed per ORS 92.060 (7) and the survey submitted for review. - Survey checking fee required at the time of review. - Property line adjustment deeds shall be recorded with the Marion County Clerk’s Office. Per ORS 92.190 (4). -The PLA may require separate records of survey or one survey with multiple pages. Project surveyor should contact County Surveyor Prior to preparing the final map. The City of Woodburn commented: • The City of Woodburn does not want Parcel II to become disassociated with Parcel III, thus creating a land locked parcel that is not accessible due to lack of road frontage. • The City further would like to see a three-part partition instead of a property line adjacent of align the parcel boundaries with the City of Woodburn’s comprehensive plan zoning including a portion of Parcel II that should be aligned with a Medium Density Residential overlay. • The City also is concerned that the property is listed as one singular tax lot and requests that the applicant work with the tax accessor’s office to change the tax lot information to reflect the four independent parcels. • The City of Woodburn is also concerned that the application does not meet Marion County Code 16.132.310 (B)(2): the new configuration shall not significantly reduce feasible options for future location of urban streets or utility services… • The City of Woodburn further indicated that they would prefer if the applicant would follow the suggestions and plan discussed with the City in the September 2024 pre-application (PRE25-15) consultation. All other agencies either did not respond, or stated no objection to the proposal. 6. The criteria for reviewing property line adjustments within an Urban Transition zone are listed in MCC 16.13.310.

B. The following regulations shall apply when property line adjustments and partitioning of land regulated by Chapter 16.33 MCC, Subdivision and Partition Requirements, are proposed: 1. Additional street right-of-way required by adopted county standards shall be dedicated along the street frontage of any lot 10 acres or less in area that is part of a partition or lot line adjustment.
