I Surrounding uses include mostly farm fields engaged in commercial agriculture activities in all directions, the most prominent types of agricultural uses being grass seed and hazelnuts. To the west on the other side of Union School Rd as well as the abutting parcel to the south are smaller parcels (3 acres or less in size) that are in use as homesites, one of which (14327 Union School Rd NE) was previously owned in conjunction with the subject parcel until it was sold off in 2017. Notable nearby features are Wilco Highway to the south, the Pudding River half a mile to the west, and Butte Creek just under a mile to the east. 4. Soil Survey of Marion County Oregon indicates 91.5% of the subject property is composed of high -value farm soils, however, Applicant has provided an independent soil assessment with their application to re-classify the soils as an update to the NRCS soil information data. The assessment found that 75.7% of soils present on the parcel are non -high -value farm soils. Therefore, the parcel may qualify for a non -farm dwelling. 5. Applicant is proposing to place a non -farm dwelling on the property and requests an adjustment to the special setback requirements of 200 feet for non -farm dwellings and 100 feet for accessory structures from neighboring parcels in farm or forest use in order to site the proposed dwelling in the northern portion of the property. Applicant requests adjusted setbacks of 55 feet to the east property line and 96 feet from the north property line for the dwelling and 35 feet from the east property line for an accessory structure. 6.
