The Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) adopted amendments to OAR chapter 660, division 9 (Economic Development) on Dec. 1, 2005. The amendments are effective Jan. 1, 2007.
 
Cities and counties may voluntarily comply with the amendments prior to the effective date.
 
The changes represent more than a year's work by the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) and the department's Economic Development Planning Advisory Committee.
 
The amendments are part of a broad effort regarding the state's industrial land supply required by House Bill 2011 (2003) and Governor's Executive Order 03-02 on industrial lands. The amendments respond to recommendations made by the Governor's Industrial Lands Task Force and the Industrial Conversion Study Committee.
 
The new rules clarify and streamline existing requirements for local governments. In addition, the rule amendments provide guidance for planning for a short-term supply of land, updated definitions, and enable multi-jurisdiction coordination.
