Myrtle Creek City Zoning Code

Permits for access to city streets shall be subject to review and approval by the city's public works department. An access permit may be in the form of a letter to the applicant, or it may be attached to a land use decision notice as a condition of approval.

Permits for access to state highways shall be subject to review and approval by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT).

Permits for access to county highways shall be subject to review and approval by Douglas County, except where the county has delegated this responsibility to the city, in which case the city shall determine whether access is granted based on adopted city standards.

Transportation Impact Study. If a proposed land division or development will generate 400 or more daily trip ends[1], then a Transportation Impact Study (TIS) shall be required. The requirements of a TIS shall be established by ODOT and the county public works department.

Projects that generate less than 400 daily trip ends may also be required to provide a TIS or traffic analysis when, in the opinion of ODOT and the county public works department, a capacity problem and/or safety concern is caused and/or is adversely impacted by the proposed development.
