A Lot (or property) Line Adjustment procedure is used to relocate a single existing common property line between two abutting lots or lots of records. No additional lots or building sites may be created. A Lot of Line Abandonment eliminates a single existing common property line between two abutting lots or lots of records, combining them into a single lot.
A Lot Line Adjustment/Abandonment application is a Type I land use decision. An application must include surveys and written legal descriptions which have been prepared by a licensed surveyor in the State of Oregon. A pre-application conference is not required for this submittal. View the Lot Line Adjustment-Abandonment Checklist (PDF), where you can review what is required for submission.
The code governing Lot Line Adjustments/Abandonments, OCMC 16.20 - Property Line Adjustments, outlines the zoning code requirements for all property line adjustments in Oregon City.
