)\LMFMX' 4EKISJ C. Growth Management, Goals, Findings and Policies: Policy 8. Land within the UGB may be converted from urbanizable to urban only through annexation to a city when it is found that: a. A minimum level of key urban facilities and services can be provided to the area in an orderly and efficient manner. b. There will be a logical area and time within which to deliver urban services and facilities. Conversion of urbanizable land to urban shall also be consistent with the Metro Plan. (page II-C-4) Policy 10. Annexation to a city through normal processes shall continue to be the highest priority. (page II-C-4). Policy 16. Ultimately, land within the UGB shall be annexed to a city and provided with the required minimum level of urban facilities and services. While the time frame for annexation may vary, annexation should occur as land transitions from urbanizable to urban. (page II-C-5) The Metro Plan designates the annexation area as appropriate for commercial uses. The Willakenzie Area Refinement Plan (WAP) is the adopted refinement plan for the subject property and also designates the area for commercial uses. The subject property is currently zoned C-1/UL Neighborhood Commercial with Urbanizable Land overlay. Upon annexation, the /UL overlay will automatically be removed. Following annexation, the applicant has indicated that they will submit a request for rezoning of the subject property to GO General Office, which is one of four commercial categories. With regard to applicable policies of the WAP, the subject property is within the -relevant policies, including clarification about why certain policies are not applicable. Staff co As previously discussed in this subsection, and further detailed under subsection (3) below, the proposed annexation is consistent with Metro Plan growth management policies and can be served by the minimum level of key urban services. The annexation procedures beginning at EC 9.7800 are consistent with State law and therefore, as found throughout this report, the annexation is consistent with State law. EC 9.7825(3) The proposed annexation will result in a boundary in which the minimum level of key urban facilities and services, as defined in the Metro Plan, can be provided in an orderly, efficient, and timely manner.
