temporary in nature. The requirements that a Manufactured Dwelling/RV Removal or Disconnect Agreement be filed by the applicant ensures that the manufactured home/RV will be removed from the property/ RV removed or disconnected and no longer used for residential purposes when the hardship ceases. The submitted site plan indicates that the hardship dwelling/RV will be in a location that will not require an additional driveway access. The proposed hardship dwelling/RV will be situated in an area that will not require removal of any productive farmland. Due to the location of the existing driveway, outbuildings and the existing well, it appears that the location will provide the least amount of disruption to the existing activities on the subject and adjoining properties. In addition, a condition of approval shall be placed stating that the temporary hardship dwelling/RV will use the existing wastewater disposal system if feasible. The proposal meets the criteria and will remain continuously applicable throughout the duration of the hardship. 12. Since the property is located in an EFU zone, the proposal must also satisfy the conditional use criteria in MCC 17.136.060(A). Those requirements are: (a) The use will not force a significant change in, or significantly increase the cost of, accepted farm or forest practices on surrounding lands devoted to farm or forest use. Land devoted to farm or forest use does not include farm or forest use on lots or parcels upon which a non-farm or non-forest dwelling has been approved and established, in exception areas approved under ORS 197.732, or in an acknowledged urban growth boundary. (b) Adequate fire protection and other rural services are, or will be, available when the use is established. (c) The use will not have a significant adverse impact on watersheds, groundwater, fish and wildlife habitat, soil and slope stability, air and water quality. (d) Any noise associated with the use will not have a significant adverse impact on nearby land uses. (e) The use will not have a significant adverse impact on potential water impoundments identified in the Comprehensive Plan, and not create significant conflicts with operations included in the Comprehensive Plan inventory of significant mineral and aggregate sites. 13. The proposal to place a recreational vehicle on the subject parcel to serve as a temporary residence should ensure that the impact to the land in minimal and not impact the ability of the parcel to engage in commercial agriculture. The parcel is in the Aurora Fire District and should be sufficient for fire and EMS situations. County records do not show any watersheds in the vicinity of the proposed site and is not anticipated to effect groundwater, fish and wildlife habitat, soil and slope stability, nor impact air and water quality. This proposal is not expected to impact nearby land uses nor create any conflicts with mineral and aggregate sites. The applicants shall be required to sign a Manufactured Dwelling/RV Removal or Disconnect Agreement that will satisfy MCC 17.136.050(B). The signing of a Farm/Forest Declaratory statement, meeting the requirements of MCC 17.136.100(C), shall be a condition of approval and will serve to notify the applicant and subsequent owners that there are farm or timber operations in the area. 14. Based on the above findings, it has been determined that the applicants’ request meets all applicable criteria for placing a temporary manufactured home/RV for medical hardship purposes and is, therefore, APPROVED.
