Summary

  • Allows the metropolitan service district to revise determination and analysis of sufficient buildable lands (as required for the metro to complete an inventory of buildable lands to determine housing capacity every six years) for the purpose of expanding the urban growth boundary (UGB) on a single occasion, three years after completing its most recent review. Applies only when a city within the metropolitan service district proposes development that would provide needed housing and would require expansion of UGB into urban reserves adjacent to that city. Limits UGB expansion under such revision to 1000 acres or less. Stipulates that metropolitan service district (district) may not revise determination of sufficient buildable land until district has entered into intergovernmental agreement, has designated rural and urban reserves with each county located within district and has acknowledgement from Land Conservation and Development Commission of these designations. Requires districts using this revision to adopt urban growth boundary (UGB) expansion within four years of completing the most recent demonstration of sufficient buildable lands. Exempts district from boundary location requirements in statewide land use planning goals relating to urbanization if expanding UGB according to these rules.
