(a)

The needed housing type is being provided for elsewhere in the region in sufficient numbers to meet regional needs;

(b)

Sufficient buildable land has been allocated within the local jurisdiction for other types of housing which can meet the need for shelter at the particular price ranges and rent levels that would have been met by the excluded housing type; and

(c)

The decision to substitute other housing types for the excluded needed housing type furthers the policies and objectives of the local comprehensive plan, and has been coordinated with other affected units of government.

(2)

The substantive standards listed in section (1) of this rule shall apply to the ORS 197.303 (“Needed housing” defined)(3) exceptions process in lieu of the substantive standards in Goal 2, Part II.
