Keep Large Commercial Interests Out of Farmland
House Bill 4153 proposes opening protected agricultural lands across the state to be used for the primary purpose of entertainment and hospitality activities.
Your written testimony now expressing opposition to HB 4153 will help ensure legislators know that keeping farmland affordable, supporting local food production, and protecting our state’s working lands is a priority.
Prevent a 1,700 Acres UGB Expansion on to Prime Farmland
SB 1586 would bring 1,700 acres of Oregon’s finest farmland into Hillsboro’s UGB for advanced manufacturing, high technology development, and accessory data centers.
The only public hearing for SB 1586 is scheduled for Monday, February 16, at 8:00am—making your testimony opposing SB 1586 all the more urgent and important for our farming future.
Uphold Key Pillars of Sound Land Use Planning
SB 1522–1 would completely remove a key pillar of the urban growth planning process, allowing cities to jump straight to the “easiest” land to develop: undeveloped farm and forest land and skip other lands zoned to become a part of our cities.
Please take two minutes to let Oregon legislators know that upholding the key pillars of our land use system matters to you.
