with a road crossing of the railway line roughly 40-feet from the current driveway access to the parcel. On the other side of Butteville Rd is a large commercial and industrial complex that is the site of Marion Ag Service Inc. 4. Soil Survey for Marion County, Oregon, indicates approximately 100% of the soils on the subject tax lots are classified as high value. 5. The applicants are proposing to adjust the property lines on a 0.44-acre parcel and a 15.56-acre parcel to create a roughly 2.5-acre parcel and a roughly 13.5-acre parcel. The proposal will locate the new 2.5-acre parcel next to two adjacent parcels and all 3 will derive access off Fisherman Ln NE. 6. Various agencies were contacted about the proposal and given an opportunity to comment. Marion County Surveyor’s Office commented: 1. No survey required for properties greater than ten acres per ORS 92.060 (8). 2. Properties 10 acres or less must be surveyed per ORS 92.060 (7) and the survey submitted for review. 3. Survey checking fee required at the time of review. 4. Property line adjustment deed(s) shall be recorded with the Marion County Clerk’s Office. Per ORS 92.190 (4). Marion County Assessor’s Office provided information regarding taxes on the subject properties. Marion County Building commented: “No Building Inspection concerns. Permit(s) are required to be obtained prior to development of structures and/or utilities installation on private property.” Marin County Septic commented: “Proposed lot 4 (proposed 2.50-acre parcel) will require a site evaluation.” Woodburn Fire District commented that they wanted to know what the width specifications were for the Fisherman Ln access easement. In a phone call with Omar Ortiz of the Woodburn Fire District, it was explained that all rural access easements must have a dedicated 20-foot width and a 12-foot wide improved surface. This explanation satisfied their question and they stated no objection to the proposal. All contacted agencies either failed to comment or stated no objection to the proposal. 7. The criteria for reviewing lot line adjustments within an EFU zone are listed in Chapter 17.136.090(C) MCC. These criteria are as follows: 1. When one or more lots or parcels subject to a proposed property line adjustment are larger than the minimum parcel size pursuant to subsection (A)(1) of this section, the same number of lots or parcels shall be as large or larger than the minimum parcel size after the adjustment. When all lots or parcels subject to the proposed adjustment are as large or larger than the minimum parcel size, no lot or parcel shall be reduced below the applicable minimum parcel size. If all lots or parcels are smaller than th e minimum parcel size before the property line adjustment, the minimum parcel size pursuant to this section does not apply to those lots or parcels. Both parcels involved in this proposal are below the minimum parcel size of 80-acres for the EFU zone. As such, this section does not apply. 2. If the minimum parcel size in subsection (A)(1) of this section is larger than 80 acres, and a lot or parcel subject to property line adjustment is smaller than the minimum parcel size but larger than 80 acres, the lot or parcel shall not be reduced in size through property line adjustment to less than 80 acres. As stated before, none of the subject parcels are larger than the 80-acre minimum, let alone a larger local minimum parcel size. This section does not apply.
