The Hearings Official concludes that the proposed golf course is consistent with the relevant policies of the Metro Plan. II. ZONE CONFORMITY Lane Code 16.254(3) requires that new intensifications, changes or use or developments allowed in applicable zones obtain a greenway development permit. Lane Code 16. 254( 4) further requ i res that such deve 1 opment con form to the following criteria: (i) Thedevefopment protects or enhances the eXisting vegetative fringe between the actiVity and the river. Where such protective action is shown to be impractical under the circumstances, the maximum landscaped area or open space shall be provided between the activity and the river and the development provides for the reestablishment of vegetative cover where it will be significantly removed dt.lriog the process of land development. The property has been historically cultivated up to the top of the river bank and therefore the vegetative fringe does not extend beyond that
