197.625
Acknowledgment of comprehensive plan or land use regulation changes;
application prior to acknowledgment.
(1) A local decision adopting a change to an acknowledged comprehensive plan or
a land use regulation is deemed to be acknowledged when the local government
has complied with the requirements of ORS 197.610 and 197.615 and either:
(a) The 21-day
appeal period set out in ORS 197.830 (9) has expired and a notice of intent to
appeal has not been filed; or
(b) If an appeal
has been timely filed, the Land Use Board of Appeals affirms the local decision
or, if an appeal of the decision of the board is timely filed, an appellate
court affirms the decision.
(2) If the local
decision adopting a change to an acknowledged comprehensive plan or a land use
regulation is affirmed on appeal under ORS 197.830 to 197.855, the
comprehensive plan or the land use regulation, as modified, is deemed to be
acknowledged upon the date the decision of the board or the decision of an
appellate court becomes final.
(3) Prior to
acknowledgment of a change to an acknowledged comprehensive plan or a land use
regulation:
(a) The change is
effective at the time specified by local government charter or ordinance; and
(b) If the change
was adopted in substantial compliance with ORS 197.610 and 197.615, the local
government shall apply the change to land use decisions, expedited land
divisions and limited land use decisions unless a stay is granted under ORS
197.845.
(4) Approval of a
land use decision, expedited land division or limited land use decision that is
subject to an effective but unacknowledged provision of a comprehensive plan or
a land use regulation must include findings of compliance with land use statutes,
statewide land use planning goals and administrative rules of the Land
Conservation and Development Commission implementing the statutes or goals that
apply to the decision and that the unacknowledged provision implements.
(5) If an
effective but unacknowledged provision of a comprehensive plan or a land use
regulation fails to gain acknowledgment, a permit or zone change approved, in
whole or in part, on the basis of the change does not justify retention of the
improvements that were authorized by the permit or zone change.
(6) If requested
by a local government, the Director of the Department of Land Conservation and
Development shall issue certification of the acknowledgment upon receipt of an
affidavit from:
(a) The local
government, attesting that the change to the acknowledged comprehensive plan or
the land use regulation was accomplished in compliance with ORS 197.610 and
197.615; and
(b) The Land Use
Board of Appeals, stating either:
(A) That no
notice of appeal was filed within the 21 days allowed under ORS 197.830 (9); or
(B) The date the
decision of the board or the decision of an appellate court affirming the
change to the acknowledged comprehensive plan or the land use regulation became
final.
(7) The board
shall issue an affidavit for the purposes of subsection (6) of this section
within five days after receiving a valid request from the local government. [1981
