Section 142: HAWTHORNE FARM/FAIR COMPLEX STATION COMMUNITY PLANNING AREA SUPPLEMENTAL STANDARDS

(Added by Ord. No. 4545/4-97.)

I.   SCOPE

This section establishes clear and objective standards specific to the Hawthorn Farm/Fair Complex Station Community Planning Area.

II.   PURPOSE

These community-specific design standards reflect the City's goals and objectives for the Hawthorn Farm/Fair Complex SCPA as described in the Hillsboro Comprehensive Plan. Where the design standards of this Section specifically conflict with those contained in Sections 138, the standards of this Section shall prevail.

Because Hawthorn Farm Business Park is substantially developed with few lots remaining vacant , a major shift in development regulations or design standards would be disruptive to the established design and character of the Park. Consequently, special consideration has been given throughout Sections 136, 137, 138 and 142 to minimize adverse impacts on Hawthorn Farm while maintaining the basic principles of increased density and enhanced pedestrian orientation near the Hawthorn Farm LRT station.

The land south of Elam Young Parkway is within the flight path safety zone of the Hillsboro Airport. Consequently, even though land owners in this area would like to increase density and land use intensity, the City must agree with the Port of Portland and the Federal Aviation Administration that it is in the public interest to maintain the current low density uses and zoning. However, if the Port and the FAA should change airport operations or if technology, safety improvements or other mitigating circumstances arise, the City would welcome the opportunity to rezone the area to a higher density, mixed use residential village befitting its location near the Hawthorn Farm LRT Station.

The Fair Complex, the Washington County Fair Board and the Washington County Fair are institutions in transition. As the County Seat, Hillsboro is proud to be the host community for the Washington County Fair. At the same time, the Fair Board recognizes it must use the land more efficiently and intensely throughout the year. To achieve that objective, the Fair Board, Washington County Board of Commissioners, the City of Hillsboro and the Port of Portland are seeking to develop the land into a year-round conference and entertainment facility. Such a facility would accommodate the Fair, but would also host numerous other indoor and outdoor events, be the site of a convention hotel with exhibit space, and perhaps provide an indoor sports arena and cinema. In order to help finance the program, a portion of the land may be used for residential purposes. The provisions of Sections 136 through 138 and Section 142 accommodate this vision.

III. MODIFICATIONS TO SECTION 136 STATION COMMUNITY PLANNING AREA PROVISIONS

A. Permitted, Restricted and Specially Regulated Uses

The provisions of Section 136.IV, Section 136.V and Land Use Table 136.3 shall apply , with the following exception:

 

Medical and dental offices, outpatient and clinical facilities shall be considered a permitted use in the SCBP Station Community Business Park zone. Uses of this type shall be limited in size to not more than 15,000 square feet per tax lot. Parking for this type of use shall be provided at the ratios specified for Office and Similar Uses as shown in Section 137 (XI) (B) Table 2. (Added by Ord. No. 4736/1-99.)

B. Minimum Lot Width, Depth and Coverage

The Standards of Section 137 shall apply.
