CITY OF HOOD RIVER
URBAN GROWTH AREA SEWER AND WATER SERVICE
INFORMATION AND APPLICATION PACKET
Who is this packet for? If you own property in the Urban Growth Area (UGA), and
plan to hook up to City of Hood River sewer and/or water service, this packet is for you.
Does the City of Hood River provide sewer and water service in the UGA? The
City can provide both services in the UGA. However, the City may not be able to
provide water service to your property if you are in the Ice Fountain Water District. You
will need to contact Ice Fountain first if you are in their district.
Do I have to connect to sewer in the UGA? If your property is within 300 feet of a
City sewer line, state law requires connection (OAR 340-071-0160(4)(f)(A)(i)(I)). There
are very few properties in the UGA that do not meet this requirement.
How do I request connection to City water and/or sewer? Fill out the enclosed
application form.
Will I have to be annexed to the City before I can receive water and/or sewer from
the City? If your property is contiguous to City limits, annexation will probably be
required as a condition to receiving water and/or sewer service from the City. If
annexation is not required, or if your property is not contiguous to City limits, you will be
required to execute and record a Consent-to-Annexation agreement as a condition to
receiving water and/or sewer service.
If my property is located in the Ice Fountain Water District, will it be withdrawn
from the District upon annexation? It is the City’s policy to be able to provide all
services, including water, to a property it annexes. In order for the City to withdraw the
property from the District, the City must compensate the District under state law. If your
property is located in the Ice Fountain Water District, whether or not it is receiving service
from the District, the City will contact the District to determine the cost of withdrawing your
property from the District upon annexation.
Who will provide irrigation water if my property is annexed? If you are connected
or connecting to City water, you may use City water for irrigation. However, at this time,
the City does not provide irrigation water at reduced rates. If you are a Farmer’s
Irrigation customer, you will need to contact them about service inside the city limits.
If my property must be annexed before it can be connected to City sewer and/or
water, how does that process work? Your completed application (attached)
constitutes a request for annexation. Upon receipt of your application, the City staff will
determine whether annexation or execution of a Consent-to-Annexation agreement is
required prior to connection. If annexation is required, the City Council is required to
address the annexation at least one meeting and pass an annexation ordinance. The
annexation process may take several months.
How much does this cost? Contact the City Planning Department for current fees.
Where do I submit the application? Submit completed application, fee, and
appropriate number of copies to the City Planning Department, 211 2
nd
St., Hood River,
OR, 97031.

17.15.090 Staff Analysis
17.15.010 Introduction. It is the policy of the City of Hood River to promote orderly,
efficient, and fiscally responsible annexation of territories in conjunction with urban growth or
expected or desired urban growth within the urban growth area. Accordingly, the City shall
annex property where:
1. The proposed annexation represents the natural extension of the existing City boundary
consistent with urban growth;
2. The proposed annexation would not, when developed or as developed, unreasonably limit
the ability of the City to provide a level of services to City residents consistent with
community needs and the financial capabilities of the City, as determined by the City;
3. The proposed annexation would not cause the City to pledge extension of services beyond
its resources so as to result in a deficit operation of the service;
4. The proposed annexation would serve the interests of the entire community and not solely
the interests or convenience of those within the territory proposed to be annexed.
17.15.020 Application and Process. An annexation may be proposed by the City of Hood
River, landowners, or a group of residents and shall include the following elements:
1. Preliminary plans and specifications, drawn to scale, showing the actual shape and
dimensions of the property to be annexed and the existing and proposed land uses and
residential density. City and County zoning in the proposed territory, as shown on a
vicinity map, and contiguous lands must also be indicated.
2. Comprehensive statement of reasons in support of the annexation addressing the applicable
annexation criteria.
3. Completed certifications of property ownership, registered voter status, map, and legal
description.
17.15.030 Filing Fees. Fees for filing for annexation requests shall be set by City Council
resolution.
17.15.040 Planning Commission Review. The Planning Commission shall review the
application in a public hearing and forward a recommendation with findings to the City
Council who will conduct a public hearing according to the Quasi-Judicial Hearing
Procedures or Legislative Hearing Procedures (Chapter 17.09), whichever is applicable.
17.15.050 Evaluation Criteria – Developed Land. Prior to approving a proposed annexation
of developed land, affirmative findings shall be made relative to the following criteria:
1. The territory is contiguous to the city limits and within the Urban Growth Area;
2. The annexation represents the natural extension of the existing City boundary to
accommodate urban growth;
3. The development of the property is compatible and consistent with the rational and logical
extension of utilities and roads to the surrounding area;
4. The City is capable of providing and maintaining its full range of urban services to the
territory without negatively impacting the City's ability to adequately serve all areas within
the existing city limits;
5. The fiscal impact of the annexation is favorable, as determined by the City of Hood River
because of existing development;
6. The proposed annexation does not negatively impact nearby properties, whether located
within the city limits or the urban growth area; and
7. The annexation conforms to the Comprehensive Plan.
17.15.060 Evaluation Criteria – Undeveloped Land. Prior to approving a proposed annexation
of undeveloped land, affirmative findings shall be made relative to the following criteria:
1. The territory is contiguous to the city limits and within the Urban Growth Area;
2. The annexation represents the natural extension of the existing City boundary to
accommodate urban growth;
3. The annexation of the territory is compatible and consistent with the rational and logical
extension of utilities and roads to the surrounding area;
4. The City is capable of providing and maintaining its full range of urban services to the
property without negatively impacting the City's ability to adequately serve all areas within
the existing city limits;
5. The fiscal impact of the annexation is favorable, as determined by the City of Hood River,
either upon approval or because of a commitment to a proposed development, unless the
City determines that a public need outweighs the increase;
6. The annexation meets the City's urban growth needs, and it is to the City's advantage to
control the growth and development plans for the territory; i.e., to be able to address the
issues of traffic, density, land use, and the level and timing of necessary facilities and
services;
7. If the criteria in 17.15.060 (6) does not apply, the annexation provides a solution for
existing problems resulting from insufficient sanitation, water service, needed routes for
utility or transportation networks, or other service-related problems;
8. The proposed annexation does not negatively impact nearby properties, whether located
within the city limits or the urban growth area; and
9. The annexation conforms to the Comprehensive Plan.
17.15.070 Evaluation Criteria – Fiscal Impact. The following factors are to be taken into
consideration when determining fiscal impact for both developed and undeveloped land and
may include, but are not be limited to:
1. The additional revenues, if any, available to the City as a result of the annexation;
2. Whether any unusual or excessive costs will be incurred as a result of the annexation; and
3. The impact on the City’s tax base, if any, as a result of the annexation.
17.15.080 Evaluation Criteria – Urban Service Capabilities.
1. The municipal service needs, if any, of the territory to be annexed, including those of police
and fire protection, public sewer and water supply facilities, street improvement and/or
construction, and such other municipal services as may reasonably be required. Both short
term and long term plans for all services shall be addressed.
2. The projected costs of supplying reasonably needed municipal services to the territory
proposed to be annexed.
17.15.090 Staff Analysis. In order to assure that the Planning Commission and the City
Council, prior to action upon a proposal for annexation, are fully informed as to the potential
impacts of the annexation on both the City and the territory proposed to be annexed, the City
Planning Department shall provide a staff report addressing the above criteria.
