MEETING SUMMARY- SOUTHERN OREGON REGIONAL SOLUTIONS ADVISORY COMMITTEE

Meeting Date: January 19, 2017

Meeting location: ODFW Office, 1495 E Gregory Rd, Central Point, OR

Committee members present: Bill Thorndike, convener* Emily Mostue, The Carpenter Foundation* Councilor Jonathan Bilden, City of Eagle Point* Jackson County Commissioner Rick Dyer* [by phone] John Roberts, Oregon Water Resources Commission *Executive Committee Regional Solutions Team: Art Anderson, Department of Transportation Mary Baker, Business Oregon – IFA [via phone] Larry Holzgang, Business Oregon Kate Jackson, Department of Environmental Quality Josh LeBombard, Department of Land Conservation and Development Rob Merriman, SOREDI Alex Campbell, Coordinator, Governor’s Office Guests: Greg Holmes, 1000 Friends of Oregon Sam Engel, AllCare Jay Henry, Oregon Building Codes Division Advisory Committee (AC) New Members The Executive Committee of the AC unanimously invited Julia McFadden of Southern Oregon University and Commissioner Dan DeYoung to join the AC.

*ACTION: Alex will arrange for appointment letters to be sent. Housing In response to queries from AC members and the high profile housing policy has in the valley, staff and Bill Thorndike agreed a presentation to the AC on housing made sense. Guy Tauer, Oregon Employment Department, shared some comments recently made by Mark McMullen, Chief Economist with the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis, at the Portland City Club: the problem of housing affordability exists across Oregon – and in Idaho, Texas, and many other places. Many builders were eliminated from the industry by the Great Recession. Those that remain—and lenders—have lower risk tolerances. Land use does play a role; the public doesn’t

like sprawl, but we don’t like infill either. Much of the construction labor force has also left the industry and doesn’t appear to be coming back. Guy gave a detailed presentation, documenting that housing costs in the Rogue Valley are significantly out-pacing income or wage gains. In the last five years (to Q1 2016), average wages have grown less than 13%, but average rental costs grew about 36%. Josh LeBombard described the region-wide housing needs assessment being conducted in compliance with the Regional Problem Solving (RPS) process. The Rogue Valley Council of Governments, the regional Combined Care Organizations, and the Medford Area Chamber of Commerce are all supporting the development of new regional housing affordability initiatives. The Committee discussed whether to include housing affordability as a Regional Priority. There was a clear consensus to do so. Emily Mostue commented that it is the number one issue she hears about in non-profit circles. Project Status Updates (SO Regional Solutions Team)

See work plan for updates on all team projects.

The team highlighted follow-ups to the Illinois Valley presentation at the last AC meeting. Larry

Holzgang shared discussions with Taylor Sausage re public safety issues.

Larry also described progress towards completion of Project Go-Go, a recruitment project that

would bring about 140 new employees to the area.

Art Anderson gave an overview of the transportation package that the Oregon Transportation

Committee has recommended. Included in their recommended package is funding of about $35

million to address key seismic investments that would greatly improve the time necessary to

reconnect the Rogue Valley to the state highway system in the case of a major Cascadia event.

Kate Jackson updated the AC on progress with the Water for Irrigation Streams and Economy

(WISE) project, including Rouge River Valley Irrigation District efforts to expand the “Bradshaw

Drop” demonstration project in the Little Butte watershed.

Phoenix Ph-5/Ph-10 Urban Growth Boundary Expansion

Jamie McCloud, Phoenix City Manager made a presentation on the City’s planning to expand its

urban growth boundary on the east side of I-5. The proposed expansion, which was identified

as part of the RPS process, would add several hundred acres to Phoenix’s urban growth

boundary, including several hundred that would meet an identified regional need for a major

3

employment center. Land use proposals will likely move forward in the first half of 2017, and

the city is working now to identify solutions to infrastructure funding challenges and to begin

identifying target industries and workforce links. The City is working with IFA on funding for a

water system master plan that would clarify how to serve the expansion area.

Public Comment

Greg Holmes, 1000 Friends of Oregon, noted that 1000 Friends is also working on the housing affordability issue and is co-sponsoring the April event with RVCOG and the AARP. Allcare is also very involved in housing discussions. 1000 Friends is also heavily involved in local food systems development and will be convening a discussion on that topic in Illinois Valley in several weeks. Part of that work is focused on the helping food production co-exist with cannabis production.
