Overview of draft plan for UGB Framework Framework Forum, Silver Falls November 5, 2014 UGB Stewardship Plan
Urban Growth Boundaries • UGBs were established under Oregon Statewide Planning Goals in 1973 by the Oregon State Legislature (Senate Bill 100). • UGB dataset was originally created in 2004 at the Oregon Department of Employment under a grant from the Oregon Geographic Information Council (OGIC). • In 2008 DLCD took stewardship of the data and began a refined methodology necessary to bring the UGB data in line with other statewide framework elements through the OGIC data standards process.
Urban Growth Boundaries • Changes to UGBs are processed through the land use planning program at DLCD. • DLCD is in the best position to provide stewardship services because of this mandated flow. • Digital files are required. Since 2011, jurisdictions have been required to submit a digital GIS file of their UGB each time an amendment is requested. • Position adjustments due to remapping do not flow to DLCD as a matter of course.
Urban Growth Boundaries • UGB data is updated and published once a year • UGB data is published as a shapefile and as a Web service and made available through Oregon’s Spatial Data Library, Oregon Explorer and ArcGIS Online • Entire history of all UGBs as polyline feature in geodatabase. Plan to publish as a Web service enabling time-series mapping
