Section 660-038-0090 - Employment Land Need

OAR 660-038-0090 to 660-038-0150 provides steps that a city must follow to determine employment land need over the 14-year planning period.

(1) A city that applies the UGB method in this division:

(a) Must forecast the amount of buildable lands that will be needed for projected employment in the UGB over a 14-year period using rules in OAR 660-038-0100 through 660-038-0150, and

(b) Must provide within its UGB sufficient buildable lands and other development capacity to accommodate the growth in employment that is forecast to occur over a 14-year period and plan those lands as required by OAR 660-038-0180.

(2) The city must forecast employment growth within the UGB for a 14-year period from the year in which the UGB analysis was initiated. As provided in ORS 197A.310(4) and 197A.312(4), the city may forecast employment growth based on either:

(a) The population growth forecast for the city's UGB in the most recent final forecast issued by the Portland State University Population Research Center under ORS 195.033 applying the requirements of OAR 660-038-0100, or

(b) The most recent long term employment growth forecast issued by the Oregon Employment Department (OED) for the applicable region, applying the requirements of OAR 660 038 0110.
