regon Gov. Tom McCall once said, “Oregon is demure and lovely, and it ought to play a little hard to get. And I think you’ll be just as sick as OI am if you fi nd it is nothing but a hungry hussy, throwing herself at every stinking smokestack that’s of- fered.” The middle ground alluded to by McCall is at the heart of the Legislature’s land use “grand bargain” that must be resolved prior to the body proclaiming “sine die” March 5. Last week, Oregon’s Court of Appeals effectively de- railed a land use plan that would have outlined urban and rural development in the metro- politan area for the next 50 years. OUROPINION This was after Metro and the Ore- gon Land Conservation & Devel- opment Commission approved the urban and rural re- serves in question in 2011.
