Abstract:
This application includes amendments to the comprehensive plan, the development code and the TSP. (1) Amend certain Newberg Comprehensive Plan policies related to the bypass. In particular, the amendments would: (a) Adopt a policy supporting ODOT's locally preferred alternative alignment of the bypass. (b) Amend policies relating to when the bypass will be considered a "planned improvement" for purposes of Oregon's Transportation Planning Rule. (c) Adopt policies to create future Interchange Area Management Plans for areas near the bypass interchanges. (2) Reduce the boundaries of the Bypass Interchange Overlay. This overlay specifies that certain commercial uses are not allowed in industrial areas near the Highway 219 bypass interchange. (3) Amend the Newberg Transportation System Plan maps to show the alignment of the bypass and certain local roads near the interchanges, including Wynooski Road, a road connecting Wilsonville Road with Highway 219, a road connecting Corral Creek Road to the planned extension of Crestview Drive, and local access roads connecting to Providence Drive.
