A-Engrossed Ordinance No. 890 Middle Housing Land Divisions

A-Engrossed Ordinance No. 890 adds standards and procedures for middle housing land divisions, as required by 2021 Oregon Senate Bill 458. It also makes minor amendments to recently adopted regulations for middle housing. The engrossment reduces minimum side yard setbacks in certain circumstances for middle housing/middle housing land divisions and clarifies adopted criteria for related side yard setback reductions for other housing. It also allows existing road improvements that were previously approved and built to County standard, regardless of right-of-way and/or partial easement width, to serve as an alternative to adopted minimum right-of-way standards for middle housing, Single Detached Dwelling or its expansion.
