Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment and Zone

Date: May 22, 2025 Application No: ZC 25-01
Owner / Applicant: City of Shady Cove
Proposal: Change of Comprehensive Plan Map designation from Commercial to Public,
and Zone Change from General Commercial to Public Uses, on a single parcel of City-
owned land.
Address: 22023 Highway 62, Shady Cove, OR 97539
Legal Description of Property: 34-1W-15BC, Tax Lot 100
Acreage: 2.30 acres
Zoning: General Commercial
The City of Shady Cove planner has reviewed an application for Comprehensive Plan
Map Amendment and Zone Change to permit the development of public uses on the
subject property described above.
______________________________________________________________
Section154.439 establishes the following criterion:
1. The proposal shall be consistent with the City’s adopted goals and policies pertaining
to land use, growth, and development.
In addition to this criterion, the application for comprehensive plan amendment asks the
applicant to provide the following findings:
2. There is a need for this type of property as follows:
3. This property meets the public need best by:
4. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and general
welfare in that:
Findings in compliance with the required criterion of Section 154.439, along with the
additional considerations listed in the application for a comprehensive plan amendment,
are provided below.
1. The proposed change is in conformance with the comprehensive land use plan
of the City of Shady Cove in that:
The proposed change in Comprehensive Plan Map designation and Zoning Map
designation for the subject property is in conformance with all applicable sections of the
Comprehensive Plan. In particular, the proposed change is in conformance with the
following applicable sections:
05/22/2025 Staff Report ZC 25-01 City Park Page 1 of 4
Section C. Economic Development
Section D. Natural Resources, Natural Disasters and Hazards
Section E. Recreation
Section H. Land Use Plan
Appendix. Goals and Policies
Findings – Section C: Section C is a relatively short chapter of the Comprehensive Plan;
containing only three pages of text. It discusses some of the history of the economy in
Shady Cove, describes the current conditions, identifies a number of challenges, and
provides guidance on improving the economic condition in Shady Cove. One major
challenge identified in the Plan is the lack of a municipal water system. There is no
mention of a lack of available commercial land for development, and therefore, the loss
of this 2.30-acre site from the commercial land inventory is not contrary to the plan. The
Plan does call for efforts to stimulate development. By providing a space for people to
congregate, through recreation or the hosting of events, the proposed park land will help
to encourage pedestrian traffic in the commercial core of Shady Cove. These kinds of
developments have been shown to help to stimulate economic activity in underutilized
areas.
Findings – Section D: This Section is generally unapplicable to the proposed change,
however, there is a heading for open space in Section D. The mention of open space in
this context is generally an inventory of existing open space – recognizing that the
Rogue River provides the majority of open space in Shady Cove, along with the two
formally designated parks: Aunt Caroline’s Park and the Rogue regional County Park.
This section is only applicable in that it recognizes the lack of open spaces in the
community.
Findings – Section E: The proposed change is heavily supported by Section E. This
section catalogs available parks and recreation spaces in Shady Cove and concludes
that the city is lacking in available park space. The city has 8.46 acres of developed park
space, and needs roughly 18 to 30.5 acres given the population at the time of the study.
This number is slightly higher now given the modest increase in population. The addition
of this 2.30-acre property to the parks inventory will help to close the existing gap, but
the City should continue to look at additional ways to add to the inventory.
Findings – Section H: In describing the Public designation, Section H tells us that: “all of
the land given the designation as public is owned by public agencies and is used or is
potentially useful for public purposes.” It stands to reason that this land was not
previously designated Public as it was not previously owned by a public agency and was
not previously used or planned for public purposes. It also stands to reason that it is
appropriate to designate the land as Public now that it meets both of those criteria.
Section H also makes it clear that the Zoning designation of the property cannot by
changed from General Commercial to Public Use without also changing the
Comprehensive Plan Map designation from Commercial to Public.
Findings – Appendix: Provided under combined 2) & 3) below.
2. There is a need for this type of property as follows:
And;
3. This property meets the public need best by:
05/22/2025 Staff Report ZC 25-01 City Park Page 2 of 4
Combined Findings for 2) & 3): The Shady Cove Comprehensive Plan contains an
appendix with a list of “goals and policies associated with the issues in the
Comprehensive Plan recommended by the Planning Commission to the City Council for
adoption.” There are seven major categories or overarching goals listed in that appendix.
Of those seven, three are directly related to parks and open space development and are
listed below (particularly applicable sections underlined):
- Increase public access to the river and other natural resources (parks and open
space areas)
- Enforce appropriate activities in public areas to ensure natural resources, public
facilities and wildlife habitat are preserved and maintained.
- Promote tourism and improve community livability by developing and maintaining:
- Parks and open spaces
- Shaded seating associated with downtown walking paths
- Bike paths
- Hiking trails
- Attractive, safe walking paths, particularly in the downtown areas
- Promote attractive landscaping standards on both public and private property.
- Investigate what it takes to become a Tre City USA city
- Increase the areas designated as parks and open space
- Promote the maintenance of riparian areas and natural (native) landscape
areas to enhance the attractiveness of the Shady Cove area and increase the
livability of the community.
- Increase the area dedicated to parks and open spaces within the Shady Cove Urban
Growth Boundary:
- Continue maintenance of Aunt Caroline’s Park
- Improve use for family recreation
- Identify, designate and establish mini parks throughout the City.
- Associate with shaded resting areas within the business district.
- Develop a lease agreement with the Medford Bureau of Land Management for
natural park/open space for hiking paths in the northwest area of the Shady Cove
Urban Growth Boundary.
The need for additional parks and open spaces, particularly in the downtown and
business district, is clearly identified in the goals and policies of the Comprehensive
Plan. The City has identified the subject property as the best location to meet this
identified need, for a number of reasons, including:
- The property was available for purchase;
- The development of the site as a park was also an opportunity to address existing
blight on the property;
- The size of the property provides opportunity to develop a park with active
recreation, walking trails, seating, and community gathering space; and
- The property is ideally situated within the downtown/business district
4. The proposed use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety and
general welfare in that:
Findings: There are not many developable and/or redevelopable properties located
within the downtown core of Shady Cove. The City was able to purchase the subject
property from the previous owner through a standard real estate transaction. In doing so,
the City was able to secure property for some of the needed additional park space
identified in the Comprehensive Plan. This was done without the use of condemnation,
05/22/2025 Staff Report ZC 25-01 City Park Page 3 of 4
extraction, or any other heavy-handed means. At the time of purchase, the property
contained a number of derelict structures that have since been removed. The City has
already improved the appearance of the subject property, thereby also improving the
aesthetic of the downtown core. The City has hosted an open house / townhall meeting
to discuss the design and development of this new downtown park, and will continue to
work with the community through the process of constructing the park to ensure it meets
community needs. The park will provide much needed open space, recreation amenities,
gathering space, and a space for civic engagement in the downtown area. There are no
obvious detriments to public health, safety and the general welfare presented by the
proposed change to the Comprehensive Plan Map designation from Commercial to
Public, the Zoning Map designation from General Commercial to Public Uses, or the
planned development of a park on the subject property.
Conclusion: The proposed comprehensive plan map amendment and zone change will
facilitate the development a new city park in the downtown business district, which is
consistent with Comprehensive Plan. The need for this type of land (public parks and
open space) is well established in the Comprehensive Plan and the change, as
proposed, is an efficient way of addressing the need without compromising the
availability of land to meet other identified needs.
Staff recommends approval of the proposed Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment from
Commercial to Public and Change of Zone from GC (General Commercial) to P (Public
Uses).

CITY OF SHADY COVE
RESOLUTION NO. 25-15
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHADY COVE, OREGON, SUPPORTING THE CITY’S
2025-2027 HOUSING PLANNING ASSISTANCE APPLICATION TO THE DEPARTMENT OF LAND
CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT TO FUND A PROJECT TO AMEND (REPLACE) THE CITY’S
DEVELOPMENT CODE, DEVELOP A GIS SYSTEM, AND INTEGRATE ARTIFIFICIAL INTELEGANCE (AI) INTO
THE PLANNING REVIEW PROCESS
Whereas, the City of Shady Cove has a statutory obligation to amend its Development Code to
comply with Middle housing requirements under ORS 197A.420, clear and objective requirements under
ORS 197A.400, accessory dwellings under ORS 197A.425, manufactured/prefabricated housing under
ORS 197.475, and other housing-related statutory requirements;
Whereas, the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) has 2025-2027
Housing Planning funds available to assist with updating development codes to comply with housing-
related statutory obligations; and
Whereas, the City has drafted an application for 2025-2027 Housing Planning funds, which must
be submitted by August 4, 2025, to receive consideration; and
Whereas, the required changes to the Development Code are wide-ranging and would require
an extensive re-write of the Code, including changes to procedures, processes, and standards, and the
extent of the changes could result in ambiguity and difficulty in applying the Code; and
Whereas, the City has elected to instead adopt a model code - recently written to meet
statutory requirements - and modify that code as needed to meet Shady Cove’s needs; and
Whereas, the City’s application also includes a request for funds to develop a City GIS and to
integrate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the planning review process to improve accessibility, and produce
fair and equitable outcomes; and
Whereas, the DLCD 2025-2027 Housing Planning application requires a resolution or letter from
the governing body of the city demonstrating support for the project;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHADY COVE, OREGON:
1. Policy. It is hereby declared the City’s policy to support the application for DLCD 2025-2027
Housing Planning funds and the project described both above and in greater detail in that
application.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the City Council of Shady Cove, Oregon, on this 7 day of August, 2025.
