1As we have already explained, the EC allows significantly higher densities in the R-3 <br />2and R-4 zones than is required under Metro Plan Policy A.9, and the challenged decision <br />3does not change that zoning. We are not persuaded by any of petitioner’s arguments that the <br />4challenged amendments will leave the city unable to comply with the 28.56 dwelling units <br />5per net acre standard that is set by Metro Plan Policy A.9. As far as we can tell, Ordinance <br />620481 is consistent with Metro Plan Policy A.2 or A.9. <br />7Petitioner appears to interpret Metro Plan Policy A.14 to prohibit the city from <br />8adopting any land use regulation amendments that might ultimately prove to be “barriers to <br />9higher density housing [or] provision [of] a full range of housing options.” That is not what <br />10the policy says. Metro Plan Policy A.14 directs the city to review city land use regulations <br />11periodically to “remove barriers to higher density housing and to make provision for a full <br />12range of housing options.” Metro Plan Policy A.14 seems to recognize that the city’s ability <br />13to predict the ultimate impact of land use regulations on housing density and options at the <br />14time land use regulations are adopted or amended is imperfect. Metro Plan Policy A.14 <br />15simply requires that the city assess and correct, on a periodic basis, any land use regulations <br />16that prove to be a barrier to housing density or providing a full range of housing options. <br />17While Metro Plan Policy A.14 probably would bar a land use regulation that on its face will <br />18be a barrier to achieving desired housing density or housing options, and petitioner <br />19apparently believes that is the case with Ordinance 20418, we do not agree. <br />20This subassignment of error is denied. <br />Page 22 <br /> <br />
