Notice and Filing of Objections (Work Program Phase)
(1)
After the local government approves the evaluation and work program, or the evaluation and decision that no work program is necessary, the local government must notify the department and persons who participated at the local level orally or in writing during the local process. The local government notice must contain the following information:(a)
Where a person can review a copy of the local government’s evaluation and work program or the evaluation and decision that no work program is necessary, and how a person may obtain a copy of the decision;(b)
The requirements listed in section (2) of this rule for filing a valid objection to the evaluation, work program or decision that no work program is necessary; and(c)
That objectors must give a copy of the objection to the local government.(2)
Persons who participated at the local level orally or in writing during the local process leading to the evaluation and work program or decision that no work program is necessary may object to the local government’s decision. To be valid, an objection must:(a)
Be in writing and filed with the department’s Salem office no later than 21 days from the date the notice was mailed by the local government;(b)
Clearly identify an alleged deficiency in the evaluation, work program or decision that no work program is necessary;(c)
Suggest a specific work task that would resolve the deficiency;(d)
Demonstrate that the objecting party participated at the local level orally or in writing during the local process.(3)
Objections that do not meet all the requirements of section (2) of this rule will not be considered by the director or commission.(4)
If the department does not receive any valid objections within the 21-day objection period, the director may approve the evaluation and work program or decision that no work program is required. Regardless of whether valid objections are received, the department must make its own determination of the sufficiency of the evaluation and work program or determination that no work program is necessary.(5)
If the department receives one or more valid objections, the department must issue a report that addresses the issues raised in valid objections. The report must identify specific work tasks to resolve valid objections or department concerns. A valid objection must either be sustained or rejected by the department or commission based on the statewide planning goals and related statutes and administrative rules.
