OAR 660-046-0215
Permitted Uses and Approval Process


Large Cities must apply the same approval process to Middle Housing as detached single-family dwellings in the same zone. Pursuant to OAR 660-008-0015 (Clear and Objective Approval Standards Required) and ORS 197.307 (Effect of need for certain housing in urban growth areas), Large Cities may adopt and apply only clear and objective standards, conditions, and procedures regulating the development of Middle Housing consistent with the requirements of ORS 197.307 (Effect of need for certain housing in urban growth areas). Nothing in this rule prohibits a Large City from adopting an alternative approval process for applications and permits for Middle Housing based on approval criteria that are not clear and objective as provided in OAR 660-007-0015(2), OAR 660-008-0015 (Clear and Objective Approval Standards Required)(2), and ORS 197.307 (Effect of need for certain housing in urban growth areas)(6).
