NOTICE OF LIMITED LAND USE DECISION AND QUASI-JUDICIAL PUBLIC HEARING

The Scappoose Planning Commission has scheduled a Quasi-Judicial Land Use Public Hearing and Limited Land Use Decision to consider the following application:

Docket # SDR3-16, SLDP1-16
Akaan Design, on behalf of Durham School Services, has requested approval for Site Development Review (SDR3-16) for a proposed bus parking facility with an associated bus maintenance shop, dispatch center and offices. The applicant also requests approval of a Sensitive Lands Development Permit – Flooding (SLDP1-16) due to the presence of floodplains on the site. The site is located at 33345 Scappoose-Vernonia Hwy on property described as Columbia County Assessor Map No. 3201-CO-02701.

The meeting is scheduled for Thursday, September 22, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers of the Scappoose City Hall located at 33568 East Columbia Avenue.

Site Development Review is a Limited Land Use Decision and does not require a public hearing (verbal testimony will not be considered, however written testimony is allowed). Verbal and written testimony will be taken in regard to the Sensitive Lands Development Permit (Quasi-Judicial Hearing).

The Planning Commission’s decision on the above public hearing items must be based on findings that a specific set of criteria have been or have not been met. Comments submitted in regard to the application should be directed toward applicable sections of Title 17 (Land Use and Development) of the Scappoose Municipal Code, with particular emphasis on Chapters 17.70 (LI, Light Industrial); 17.84 (Sensitive Lands – Flooding); 17.100 (Landscaping, Screening and Fencing); 17.106 (Off-Street Parking and Loading Requirements); Chapter 17.120 (Site Development Review); 17.154 (Street and Utility Improvement Standards); 17.162 (Procedures for Decision Making–Quasi-Judicial) and 17.164 (Procedures for Decision Making–Limited Land Use Decisions).

The decision-making criteria, application, and records concerning this matter are available in the Scappoose Community Development Center office at 52610 NE 1st Street, Scappoose, Oregon during working hours or by calling (503) 543-7184.

Interested parties may submit written comments to the City of Scappoose, City Planner, 33568 E. Columbia Avenue, Scappoose, Oregon, 97056 or fax comments to (503) 543-5679 by 5:00 p.m. Wednesday, September 21, 2016. Failure to raise an issue in writing prior to the close of the public comment period, or failure to provide sufficient specificity to afford the decision-maker an opportunity to respond to the issue, precludes appeal on that issue.
