The Deschutes County Board of Commissioners adopted Ordinance 2024-012 on second reading, changing the comprehensive plan designation and zoning for a Destiny Court Properties LLC parcel from Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) to Multiple Use Agriculture (MUA 10) and from Agriculture to Rural Residential Exception Area on the comprehensive plan map.
Anthony Riggini of the county’s Community Development Department presented the item and said there were no changes between first and second reading. Riggini told commissioners that if adopted at second reading the ordinance becomes effective 90 days after adoption.
The board voted to adopt the ordinance. The roll-call as recorded in the meeting: Commissioner Dyer — yes; Commissioner Chang — no; Chair DeBone — yes. The chair announced the ordinance had been adopted and recorded the second reading by title only prior to the final adoption motion.
Why it matters: the map and zoning changes alter permitted land uses for the subject parcel and take effect after the 90-day period noted by staff. Such changes can influence future development, allowed uses and applicable regulations on the property.
Ending: The ordinance will take effect in 90 days per the timeline given by community development staff; staff will complete administrative steps to finalize the change.
