62385 Hamby Rd, Bend, OR 97701

Buy one of the most extensive tracks of land bordering Bend's UGB. Ten of the 103.37 acres is zoned Urban Area Reserve (UAR), and the remaining land is zoned for Exclusive Farm Use (EFU). The EFU land is not currently being used for any agricultural use and appears to have no farming value based on the soil composition (complete soils analysis would be required to confirm). The natural progression would be to rezone the EFU land to MUA-10, a preparatory zoning designation that is ideal for the property being positioned as a worthy candidate for UGB inclusion. The property also meets the minimum acres required for annexation without forming a consortium, based on its size. Bend is growing rapidly, and land supply is one of the biggest obstacles to accommodate growth. In the last thirty years, the city's boundaries have grown, and the forecast is for that trend to continue.
