FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS: Findings and conclusions on which the decision was based are noted below. <br /> <br />l. The subject property is designated Special Agriculture in the Marion County Comprehensive Plan and <br />correspondingly zoned SA (Special Agriculture). It is also located within the identified 100-year floodplain of the <br />Mill Creek. <br /> <br />2. The subject property is located directly west of Marion Rd SE in Turner. It is located directly southwest of <br />Marion Road’s intersection with Mill Creek SE Mill Creek Rd SE. The property is almost entirely within the 100- <br />year floodplain of the Mill Creek. The most southwestern portion of the property is within the regulatory <br />floodway. As per aerial images and PLA22-020, the property previously had a dwelling and other accessory <br />buildings on it. <br /> <br />The property was the subject of land use case AR94-073 and PLA22-020. AR94-073 was done to determine the <br />legality of a nonconforming use on the property, and PLA22-020 was done to adjust the property lines between <br />the subject parcel and the two neighboring parcels to the northwest. Therefore, the subject property is considered <br />legal for land use purposes. <br /> <br />3. Surrounding lands are zoned SA with most being almost entirely within the 100-year floodplain of Mill Creek. <br />Most surrounding properties contain homesites. The surrounding properties approximately 600 feet west lie <br />within the Turner Urban Growth Boundary. <br /> <br />4. Soil # % of Parcel SCS Soil Class High Value? <br /> Clackamas gravelly loam 95.2% 3 Yes <br /> <br /> Courtney gravelly silty clay 4.6% 4 Yes <br /> loam, 0 to 3% slopes <br /> <br /> Sifton gravelly loam 0.2% 3 Yes <br /> <br />5. The applicant(s) propose to place a dwelling within the 100-year floodplain of the Mill Creek. The home will be <br />elevated at a minimum of 2 feet above the BFE. An elevation certificate and Endangered Species Act Compliance <br />Data were provided with the application. Additional elevation certificates will be required. <br /> <br />6. Various government agencies were contacted with opportunities to provide comment. <br /> <br />Marion County Building Inspection commented: “Permit(s) are required to be obtained prior to the development <br />of structure(s) and or utilities installation on private property. If any structure is within any floodplain or <br />floodway as determined by the Marion County Floodplain Administrator, then the floodplain construction <br />provisions of 2023 ORSC Section R322 would be applicable and would be required to be shown upon the <br />construction drawings to be checked during plan review after permit application is made.” <br /> <br /> Public Works Land Development and Engineering Permits (LDEP) requested that the following be included in the <br />land use decision. <br /> <br /> Requirements: <br /> <br />A. At the time of application for building permits, an Access Permit will be required to document inspection <br />of the existing paved access. <br /> <br />B. Transportation System Development Charges (TSDCs) and Parks fee will be assessed at the time of <br />application for building permits. <br /> <br />C. New underground utility service extensions such as electric power originating from within the public right- <br />of-way to the property require a permit from MCPW Engineering. <br /> <br />All other contacted agencies failed to comment or stated no objection to proposal.
