“Good evening, Camby. Welcome to September 2nd, 2026 work session and council meeting. We are having a work session this evening. Tonight's work session is to discuss recent developments in the urban growth boundary expansion, conversation and planning. And I wanna thank our city staff and our consultants for some tremendous work on this and as well as, gosh, so many people at different community meetings and all those things which we'll go over and then the tactical committee and their hard work on this as well. So Randy, are you leading this off tonight or are we just going straight to Don?”

“we could go up to a hundred and two and that' s the maximum we could go and the minimum is 72. 73 is the minimum and that would be required for us to do 73 acres of residential.”

“Just, and you might be getting this, which I appreciate. Just for conceptual, the new park that we just built and put in, how many acres is that? 2.3, I think. Okay. Yeah.”

“Sure. And, sorry, not to belabor this slide necessarily, but looking at like option D where we've got those seven parcels there that are designated. We're not necessarily that that's where parks would go. It could be somewhere where it's that more marigold yellow. That's just showing if we added how much added”

“Well, I know at that last community meeting, there was quite a bit of consternation about the whole concept and idea of having a commercial area designated out there in that part of Canby.”

“I think we hit bullet point one. Bullet point two, how much parkland in sub area 1A, we kind of already hit on that tonight. And then how much land for neighborhood certain commercial, which we just finished that conversation piece. I mean, are there anything we're missing?”

“Are there pieces on here, Don, that you want to just... further flush out. I mean, we got a little bit, but... Or drive home?”

“So lots of moving pieces. you know, simultaneously here once we get through this phase, DLCD says, you know, great job, can be way to go. They slow clap us out of the building because we did such a great job. Then there's the concept planning for the newly added areas go on. We are starting the process for two and three. So all said and done with what we're looking at, it's probably another... two years of work to kind of, we'll say, complete this plan.”

“Great. Any other comments? And again, to Pastor Patton's point, I think a lot of that comes about in our conversation as we dive into the planning, as we break that down. Same thing, I think, to your point, Jim, as we look at, yeah, does that eat into some of the residential... what gets developed residentially if we're looking at some of those better buffer zones to prevent those kinds of things from happening.”
