OAR 736-018-0025: State Park Uses

The Department may propose any uses for a state park which are consistent with the state park master planning criteria described in OAR 736-018-0020. (1) The Commission and Department recognize that certain state park uses are traditional in Oregon’s state parks. These traditional uses are described in the Department’s “Traditional State Park Uses” list. Traditional state park uses are consistent with the Commission and Department’s role as a public recreation provider. (2) As provided by ORS 195.120, when considering a local comprehensive plan amendment as required for local adoption of a master plan, a local government is not required to adopt an exception to Statewide Planning Goals 3 or 4 for park uses listed under OAR 660-034-0035, provided the uses meet all other statewide goals and are provided for in a master plan adopted by the Department.
