functional classification of the road or standards implementing them. LDEP expressed no <br />concern about the plan and zone amendment significantly affecting the existing <br />transportation facility by allowing uses or levels of development that would be <br />inconsistent with roads serving the property. Goal 12 is satisfied. <br />Goal 13: Energy Conservation. To conserve energy. <br />Both farm and forest uses are similar in nature, and changing the zone to FT will not <br />create a more energy intensive use than is permitted in the EFU zone. An additional <br />home site and continued forest use would not significantly increase energy consumption. <br />Goal 13 is satisfied. <br />Goal 14: Urbanization. To provide for an orderly and efficient transition from rural to <br />urban land use, to accommodate urban population and urban employment inside urban <br />growth boundaries, to ensure efficient use of land, and to provide for livable <br />communities. <br />Changing the Marion County Comprehensive Plan designation to Farm/Timber and <br />zoning to FT will not urbanize the subject property. Goal 14 does not apply. <br />Goals 15-19, Willamette River Greenway, Estuarine Resources Coastal Shorelands <br />Beaches and Dunes, and Ocean Resources. <br />The subject site is not within the Willamette River Greenway, or near ocean or coastal <br />related resources. These goals do not apply. <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT <br />3. The Marion County Comprehensive Plan does not contain specific review criteria for <br />plan amendments. However, all comprehensive plan amendments must be consistent <br />with applicable MCCP goals and policies. If the subject property is designated Farm <br />Timber, forest lands goals and policies will apply. Therefore, the proposal must be <br />consistent with the forest lands and goals and policies. <br />Forest Land and Farm/Timber Land Policy: Protect the resource values of those areas <br />designated as Forest Lands by applying a Timber Conservation [TCJ zone consistent <br />with OAR 660 Division 6. <br />Applicant asks for Farm/Timber rather than Forest Land designation. Forest Land <br />designation, TC zoning and Forest Land and Farm/Timber Land Policy 1 do not apply. <br />Forest Land and Farm/Timber Land Policy 2: Protect the forest resource value of those <br />areas designated as Farm/Timber Lands by applying a Farm/Timber zone consistent with <br />OAR 660 Division 6. <br />Forest Land and Farm/Timber Land Polio: Protect the agricultural resource value of <br />those areas designated as Farm/Timber Lands by applying a Farm/Timber zone <br />consistent with OAR 660 Division 33. <br />ZC / CP / AR 25-001 — RECOMMENDATION <br />Jerome P.
