Since 1973, Oregon has maintained a strong statewide program for
land use planning, which is based upon a set of 19 Statewide Planning
Goals. While each of these goals is important to land use planning Clodfelter Building
in Corvallis and statewide, Goals 1 and 5 are especially important to
historic preservation. Goal 1 focuses on citizen involvement and is
aimed at developing a citizen involvement program that insures the
opportunity for citizens to be involved in all phases of the planning
process.

Oregon Statewide Planning Goal 5

Goal 5 is a broad statewide planning goal that covers more than a dozen
resource types, including wildlife habitats, historic places and minerals.
It was originally adopted by LCDC in 1974. Goal 5 and related Oregon
Administrative Rules (Chapter 660, Divisions 16 and 23) describe how
cities and counties are to plan and zone land to conserve and protect
resources listed in the goal.

Goal 5 and its rules establish a five-step planning process for Oregon’s
cities and counties:
• Inventory local occurrences of resources listed in Goal 5 and
decide which ones are important.
• Identify potential land uses on or near each resource site and
any conflicts that might result.
• Analyze economic, social, environmental, and energy (ESEE)
consequences of such conflicts.
• Decide whether the resource should be fully or partially
protected, and justify the decision.
• Adopt measures such as zoning to put that policy into effect.

This five-step Goal 5 process was established by rules adopted in 1982,
and revised in 1996. The revisions tailored the process to the individual
resources covered by the goal. The rules were revised for a third time,
with changes being adopted January 27, 2017.
