Flexibility Allowed

Cities can regulate siting and design of middle

• housing. (clear & objective?)

Question regarding “areas zoned” language for larger cities and Portland Metro area.

Role of the Model Code(s)

LCDC will adopt two versions of the model code, one for Medium cities, and one for the “Large” cities. The codes will be written so local governments can adopt them. If local government doesn’t adopt its own compliant code, the model code must be applied directly.

Infrastructure- Based Time Extension Requests

For areas with inadequate infrastructure due to water, sewer, storm water, or transportation system constraints. Must demonstrate and develop a plan of action. Rulemaking will be key to defining and limiting such requests.
