OR SB958

Cities and counties may designate land outside urban growth boundaries for residential or light commercial development by ordinance, if the property is contiguous to or across a road from a UGB or residentially/commercially zoned parcel

Eligible properties must not have been used for their zoned purpose (including farm use on exclusive farm use land) for at least five years, and must be capable of connecting to urban services

Designated lands are exempt from statewide land use planning goals, comprehensive plans, Land Conservation and Development Commission rules, and most land use regulations under ORS chapters 195, 197, 197A, 215, and 227

Development applications must be approved or rejected by the local governing body within 100 days, with appeals limited to writ of review; all property owners must consent to the designation

Approved development applications expire after four years if not acted upon
