Abstract:
The City of Warrenton, in conjunction with the Oregon Department of Transportation
(ODOT), initiated a study of the City's transportation system in 2002. The Warrenton
Comprehensive Plan is currently undergoing periodic review as required by state law. The
transportation element (Goal 12) of the Warrenton Comprehensive Plan is a specified
periodic review work task. The current transportation element does not address the City's
obligation to meet state mandates, such as developing a Transportation System Plan (TSP)
and associated implementing ordinances that comply with the Transportation Planning
Rule (TPR). The City did develop and adopt a TSP in 1993. However, various state
requirements that affect the development of TSPs, including the TPR, have been
significantly amended since development of the 1993 Warrenton TSP. [From the Plan]
