Notes of Decisions
In annexation proceedings, boundary commission’s findings which recited that evidence existed to show statewide planning goals were not violated were inadequate to meet commission’s responsibility under this section. Norvell v. Portland Area LGBC, 43 Or App 849, 604 P2d 896 (1979)
Boundary Commission should have addressed effect on city’s continuing financial viability of proposed annexation of undeveloped land to neighboring city, effect of proposed annexation on unincorporated “island” which would have been created by annexation, and effect of annexation on existing fire district where sufficient evidence was presented to raise these issues. City of Wood Village v. Portland Metro. Area LGBC, 48 Or App 79, 616 P2d 528 (1980)
Statutory recitation of general considerations of policy and purpose set forth in ORS 199.410 does not constitute specific approval criteria that dictate particular results. Multnomah County Rural Fire v. Portland Metro. Area, 126 Or App 351, 868 P2d 783 (1994)
Boundary commission must consider statewide planning goals only when local comprehensive plan does not provide adequate policy direction. Citizens Against Annexation v. Lane County LGBC, 233 Or App 587, 226 P3d 711 (2010)
