City of La Pine Comprehensive Plan Could Not Have Been Completed Without the Assistance of Our Citizens Remand Compliant City of La Pine Comprehensive Plan Page 1 La Pine Comprehensive Plan DMC/Foreterra Special Thanks & Acknowledgements The City of La Pine Comprehensive Plan could not have been completed without the assistance of our citizens. Their participation was invaluable to the success of the document and was instrumental to developing the values, goals, and policies that are needed to shape the future of La Pine. Various public bodies and agencies also participated in the process and deserve special recognition for their efforts to refine the document. They are listed as follows: City of La Pine: City Council City Planning Commission City Staff Deschutes County: Board of County Commissioners County Planning Commission County Staff State of Oregon: Department of Land Conservation and Development Department of Transportation Department of Fish and Wildlife Department of Community Development and Economic Development Department of Employment and Analysis Federal Government: Bureau of Land Management US Forest Service Corps of Engineers Agencies: Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council La Pine Water and Sewer District La Pine Park District La Pine Rural Fire Protection District Rural Community Assistance Corporation Private Groups: Economic Development for Central Oregon La Pine Chamber of Commerce Housing Works La Pine Industrial Group Special Recognition: Special recognition and gratitude goes to DLCD Representatives Karen Swirsky, and Jon Jinings for their continued assistance in providing guidance to the City on problem Page 2 La Pine Comprehensive Plan DMC/Foreterra solving and urban/rural issues. The dedication, professionalism, and overall helpfulness were essential in the development of our first, independent Comprehensive Plan implementing the Statewide Planning Goals. Small cities, like La Pine, could not effectively complete comprehensive land use planning without assistance from DLCD. To that end, we are also thankful for the grant assistance and consideration of the Salem DLCD staff, Larry French, from which funding was provided for this task, and several other key projects.

Introduction Incorporation: The City of La Pine was incorporated in 2006 after a vote of citizens acknowledged the desire for La Pine to become a self-governing community. Population growth, challenging development issues, and a strong sense of personal independence of residents of the region led to the community making a governmental break from Deschutes County. Although brand new in its self-governance, the community is meeting the challenges of being a newly incorporated municipality head on. Aside from fulfilling the day to day obligations of managing City business affairs, this Comprehensive Plan is the first effort at directing long term community growth according to the vision of the City residents. What is a Comprehensive Plan? A Comprehensive Plan is a blueprint for community land use decision making to ensure that the needs of the community are met as growth occurs over the term of the planning period - During the creation of the Comprehensive Plan, three fundamental questions were kept in mind, these are: Where are we now? Where do we want to be? How will we get there? - Although the document is primarily intended to provide a basis of how land will be utilized and developed, it has far-reaching affects on many day-to-day issues such as: provision of public/emergency services (police/fire); economic development/jobs; land values; schools; parks; and, transportation. - A Comprehensive Plan helps define a community and puts into a single document the goals and policies that ensure that the desired character and quality of life within the community is maintained as the community grows. Elements of a Comprehensive Plan - A Comprehensive Plan is comprised of separate chapters each addressing fundamental factors in community development. In Oregon the basis for the Plan is established by the Statewide Planning Goals – these Goals require that the following issues be addressed and planned for: - agricultural and forest lands - natural resources/historic resources - the quality of air, water and land resources - natural hazards - recreational needs - economic development - housing needs Page 5 La Pine Comprehensive Plan DMC/Foreterra - public facilities and services - transportation - energy conservation - Comprehensive Plans must also include provisions for regular updating to allow for changes in community direction and needs over time. - Provisions for implementation of the goals and policies contained within the Plan must be established. These include defining “programs” to fulfill tasks and meet obligations, the adoption of a Zoning Code, and adoption of subsequent specialized Code texts that have the effect of law. - A corresponding map identifies long-term land use designations and accompanies the textual document. Reasons for a Comprehensive Plan - Compliance with State of Oregon Land Use requirements for all municipal jurisdictions. - Provides the legal basis for the communities land use regulations (laws) and land use decisions. - Helps identify and prioritize issues that are important to the community and plan for change. - Ensures that adequate public facilities and services are provided and maintained to meet citizen needs - Provides a degree of certainty and protection for citizens regarding land uses, values, and rights in their community. - And, most importantly, a Comprehensive Plan ensures that the citizens of the La Pine have a say in the development of their community. Summary of Oregon’s Statewide Planning Goals: Oregon’s statewide goals are achieved through local comprehensive planning. State law requires each city and county to adopt a comprehensive plan and the zoning and land- division ordinances needed to put the plan into effect. The local comprehensive plans must be consistent with the Statewide Planning Goals. The State’s Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) review plans for such consistency. When the State Department of Land Conservation and Development officially approves a local government’s plan, the plan is said to be ´acknowledged. After acknowledgement, the Plan becomes the controlling guide for implementing ordinances – the laws that bring the plan to life. Oregon’s planning laws apply not only to local governments but also to special districts and state agencies. The laws strongly emphasize coordination between such agencies and special districts - keeping plans and programs consistent with each other, with the goals, and with acknowledged local plans. The following is a summary of the Oregon Statewide Planning Goals and the issues that must be addressed in the Plan. GOAL 1 CITIZEN INVOLVEMENT Goal 1 calls for "the opportunity for citizens to be involved in all phases of the planning process." It requires each city and county to have a citizen involvement program containing six components specified in the goal. It also Page 6 La Pine Comprehensive Plan DMC/Foreterra requires local governments to have a committee for citizen involvement (CCI) to monitor and encourage public participation in planning. GOAL 2 LAND USE PLANNING Goal 2 outlines the basic procedures of Oregon's statewide planning program. It says that land use decisions are to be made in accordance with a comprehensive plan, and that suitable "implementation ordinances" to put the plan's policies into effect must be adopted. It requires that plans be based on "factual information"; that local plans and ordinances be coordinated with those of other jurisdictions and agencies; and that plans be reviewed periodically and amended as needed. Goal 2 also contains standards for taking exceptions to statewide goals. An exception may be taken when a statewide goal cannot or should not be applied to a particular area or situation. GOAL 3 AGRICULTURAL LANDS Goal 3 defines "agricultural lands." It then requires counties to inventory such lands and to "preserve and maintain" them through farm zoning. Details on the uses allowed in farm zones are found in ORS Chapter 215 and in Oregon Administrative Rules, Chapter 660, and Division 33. GOAL 4 FOREST LANDS This goal defines forest lands and requires counties to inventory them and adopt policies and ordinances that will "conserve forest lands for forest uses." GOAL 5 OPEN SPACES, SCENIC AND HISTORIC AREAS AND NATURAL RESOURCES Goal 5 covers more than a dozen natural and cultural resources such as wildlife habitats and wetlands. It establishes a process for each resource to be inventoried and evaluated. If a resource or site is found to be significant, a local government has three policy choices: preserve the resource, allow proposed uses that conflict with it, or strike some sort of a balance between the resource and the uses that would conflict with it. GOAL 6 AIR, WATER AND LAND RESOURCES QUALITY This goal requires local comprehensive plans and implementing measures to

Stretching almost 120 miles along U.S. Highway 97 from La Pine in the south to Maupin in the north, and 40 miles along Oregon Highway 126 from Sisters in the west to Prineville in the east, Central Oregon is vast. But one of the aspects of Central Oregon that has made it such a desirable destination is just how unique, charming, accessible, and different each of the individual communities in the region are. The two largest cities — Bend, with a population of about 100,000, and Redmond, which has more than 30,000 residents — act as hubs for the region because of their relatively centralized locations and the amenities each provide. (Redmond is nicknamed “The Hub” for a reason.) Bend is less than 20 miles south of Redmond, which is home to Redmond Municipal Airport, Central Oregon’s regional commercial airport. Following is an overview of the cities and communities that make up Central Oregon: Bend: The cultural heart of Central Oregon, Bend is by far the largest city in the region. ​ Renowned for its unique mix of outdoor recreation and urban sophistication, Bend has a little bit of everything to offer.

  • COLLABORATIVE EQUITABLE SOLUTION BUILDING for COMPLEX RURAL SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES: a Case Study of the South Deschutes County Regional Problem Solving Project
    COLLABORATIVE EQUITABLE SOLUTION BUILDING For COMPLEX RURAL SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES: A Case Study of the South Deschutes County Regional Problem Solving Project MARGUERITE NABETA UNIVERSITY OF OREGON PPPM MASTERS PROJECT June 2013 In Respectful Memory of two Stalwart Public Servants, Deidre (Didi) Malarkey and Dave Leslie. i ABSTRACT Rural communities in Oregon have been struggling for the past several decades with the transition from their historical natural-resource-reliant economy. Included in that struggle has been the coming to terms with the reality that existing public resources cannot meet the minimum needs to ensure that communities will continue to exist in the environments in which they are located. If rural communities are to remain viable, vibrant and healthy, they must find equitable, efficient and modest answers to address their human settlement impacts on the environment in which they reside. Many recent collaborative projects have begun to find solutions to address the need to live in a sustainable manner in those sensitive environments while also maintaining a high quality of life. Studies of these projects, however, have centered on the process and methodologies used rather than relating the actual outcomes. This paper focuses on a single case study of such a collaborative project, and includes not only process and methodologies but also results. Using the State of Oregon’s Collaborative Regional Problem Solving Program (RPS), the S. Deschutes County RPS Project completed an initial resolution development process with an identified implementation strategy in 2000. Since that time, the project has moved through the potential solutions adopted into the county comprehensive plan and ordinances to address several complex environmental issues that required continual coordination with several governmental jurisdictions.

  • Upper Deschutes River Bank Stability Characterization
    Upper Deschutes River Bank Stability Characterization August 2002 Kolleen Yake, Watershed Assessment Manager, Upper Deschutes Watershed Council PO Box 1812, Bend Oregon 97709 Abstract The Upper Deschutes River Bank Stability Characterization is designed to assess streambank erosion on the Upper Deschutes River along approximately 60 miles between Wickiup Reservoir and the City of Bend, Oregon. Many previous studies conducted by local, state and federal resource agencies have previously identified elevated levels of erosion and in-stream sedimentation and turbidity as a primary factor in water quality, riparian health and fish habitat concerns in the region. This characterization provides previously unavailable information about the extent of streambank erosion to help prioritize future efforts in streambank restoration, water quality restoration and fish habitat enhancement. Using the Bank Erosion Hazard Index (BEHI) methodology, bank height, bank angle, vegetation cover, root density, root depth, and bank materials was evaluated for a total of 130 reaches throughout the study area. Results indicated that 47 of the streambank reaches are classified as having high, very high, or extreme erodability; 45 are classified as moderate, 37 are classified as low and 6 are classified as very low. Maps showing the extent and distribution of the sites are included and strategies to address the erosion problems are discussed. Introduction The stream banks of the Upper Deschutes River downstream from Wickiup Reservoir are heavily eroded. While the geologic processes that define river channels in some areas might result in bedrock banks or channels lined with large boulders that are resistant to erosion, the Deschutes River channel between Wickiup Reservoir and Fall River contains loose sediments deposited from the combination of volcanic activity and alluvial processes.

  • Chapter 3 Rural Growth Management Section 3.1 Introduction
    Chapter 3 Rural Growth Management Section 3.1 Introduction Background People move to rural communities in Deschutes County for many different reasons, but the high quality of life was mentioned repeatedly in community meetings. Residents noted that rural living provides peace and quiet, room to breathe and a connection with the land, the natural world and a caring community. Retaining what people love about rural living while allowing growth can be challenging. This chapter looks at the functional and quality of life aspects of rural living and complements Chapter 2, Resource Management that discusses resource lands. This chapter is divided into eight sections. Seven Statewide Planning Goals apply to this chapter, along with associated Oregon Administrative Rules (OARs) that provide more specific guidance on implementing the Goals. The first four sections are Rural Development, Rural Housing, Rural Economy and Natural Hazards. State regulations for housing can be found in Statewide Planning Goal 10, Housing and OAR 660-008. Economic growth is considered in Statewide Goal 9, Economy of the State and OAR 660-009. Both Goal 10 and Goal 9 are intended to apply primarily inside Urban Growth Boundaries. Statewide Goal 2, Land Use and Goal 14, Urbanization, and OARs 660-004 and 660-014 address specific aspects of urban development on rural lands. Statewide Goal 7, Areas Subject to Natural Disasters and Hazards provides guidance on how to effectively protect development from natural hazards. The next two sections are Public Facilities and Services and Transportation. These areas are addressed in Statewide Goal 11, Public Facilities and Services and Statewide Goal 12, Transportation and associated OAR 660-011 and 660-012.
