Haugen v. City of Scappoose
Under ORS 197.797(9)(b), "evidence" is defined as facts, documents, or other information used to demonstrate compliance or noncompliance with relevant standards. Approval criteria for planned developments require the proposal to align with the comprehensive land use plan and be compatible with the surrounding area. Conditional use permits consider the site's suitability based on size, location, and natural features. Information on engineering issues, lot size feasibility, and project amenities relates to these criteria and is considered evidence.
