Urban growth boundary

And particularly that sense of place that we have here in Oregon as a result of that.

Not everybody can tell you, oh, that's because of urban growth boundaries.

But when they go to other states and they come back and they realize we have a backdrop to our lives, might be mountains, coast, high desert, that we all feel are very special, that this is a special place.

And the Oregon Land Use Planning Program has a huge part to do with that, with making really livable towns and cities and protecting that sense of place, whether it's iconic wilderness areas, working farms and forests, the park in your city that you can go in.

We didn't get to this place overnight and we're not going to change it overnight.

There are some things we can do to make it happen faster.

But so that's kind of how we got to where we are, where you see a disconnect of there's land in Corvallis, there's land inside a lot of urban growth boundaries available for housing.

But until recently, it's just been single detached housing.
