Section 660-012-0340 - Land Use Assumptions

(1) Future land use assumptions developed under this rule are for the purposes of transportation planning. These land use assumptions are distinct from those used to plan for residential land needs as provided in ORS 197.296.

(2) A city, county, or Metro must develop and adopt future land use assumptions for transportation planning consistent with this rule when preparing a transportation system plan, or zoning a climate-friendly area or Region 2040 center as provided in OAR 660-012-0325.

(3) Future land use assumptions must be developed for future years, including but not limited to the planning horizon year of the transportation system plan, and a common horizon year for all jurisdictions within the metropolitan area.

(4) Future land use assumptions must be consistent with the most recent final population forecast as provided in OAR 660-032-0020 or OAR 660-032-0030, as applicable.

(5) Future land use assumptions for transportation planning must assume existing acknowledged comprehensive plan designations and policies, and existing land use regulations remaining in force throughout the planning period; except where these designations, policies, or regulations are superseded by statute or rule. Future land use assumptions must assume existing acknowledged urban growth boundaries throughout the planning period.

(6) Where applicable, future land use assumptions for transportation planning must allocate growth assumptions for employment and housing within climate-friendly areas as provided in OAR 660-012-0320 before allocating growth to other parts of the city or county.

(7) Future land use assumptions must be developed at a sufficient level of detail to understand where future development is expected.
