City of Silverton addendum to the Marion County natural hazards mitigation plan
(City of Silverton (Or.), 2010-01) Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience; Silverton (Or.)
Silverton developed this addendum to the Marion County multijurisdictional Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan in an effort to increase the community’s resilience to natural hazards. The addendum focuses on the natural hazards that could affect the city of Silverton, Oregon, which include drought, flood, earthquake, landslide, volcano, wildfire, wind storm, and severe winter storm. It is impossible to predict exactly when disasters may occur, or the extent to which they will affect the city. However, with careful planning and collaboration among public agencies, private sector organizations, and citizens within the community, it is possible to minimize the losses that can result from natural hazards. The addendum provides a set of actions that aim to reduce the risks posed by natural hazards through education and outreach programs, the development of partnerships, and the implementation of preventative activities through the city’s development code, wastewater system facility plan, emergency operations plan, etc. The actions described in the addendum are intended to be implemented through existing plans and programs within the city.

Silverton : Downtown master plan
(City of Silverton (Or.), 2007-06) Oregon. Dept. of Transportation; Otak, Inc.; DKS Associates; Silverton (Or.); Oregon. Dept. of Land Conservation and Development
The Silverton Downtown Development Plan has been identified by policy makers, citizens and business groups as a critical piece of Silverton's long range planning efforts. The Plan was formulated to accompany the City of Silverton's Comprehensive Plan.... The Downtown Development Master Plan evaluates and recommends development standards and design guidelines such as building height, orientation, required building materials, pedestrian and bicycle connectivity, streetscapes and other development standards. To achieve this, the plan considers public input, previous plans, marketing studies, and economic development. The plan also looks to enhance multi-modal transportation in the downtown area. This effort will help to improve traffic flow for pedestrians, bicyclists and vehicular traffic. In addition, new design standards for development will reinforce transportation planning by orienting buildings to the street and making connections to streets. [From the Plan]

Silverton : Transportation system plan
(City of Silverton (Or.), 2000-10) Silverton (Or.)
The Transportation System Plan (TSP) is the City's planning document for its future transportation needs. It allows the City to review its existing transportation facilities in an effort to determine what improvements will be needed for the up-coming 20-year period. The document takes not only street improvement needs into consideration, but also other forms of transportation such as transit, pedestrian, bicycle, rail, air, and water related facilities. The vision, and the recommendations within this document serve as a guide to both the Planning Commission and City Council when receiving land use applications, as well as determining which improvement projects receive funding as part of the City's Capital Improvement Program. The City of Silverton, through a Transportation Growth Management Grant from the TGM Program, administered jointly by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) and Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD), initiated an update of the City's Transportation System Plan (TSP). The TSP was developed in 1993, but the many land use changes occurring in the Silverton area over the past five years, such as the Oregon Garden development, suggested the need to update the transportation plan and its improvement program.

Silverton : Wastewater system facility master plan
(City of Silverton (Or.), 2007-02) Silverton (Or.); HDR Engineering
Over the past 10 years, the City of Silverton has implemented many improvements to provide quality service to ratepayers and protect the sensitive natural environment that contributes to the area’s scenic beauty. The City planned for and built a state-of-the-art treatment plant that supports beneficial reuse of effluent at the Oregon Garden site. Now, almost a decade after these improvements, the City faces new drivers. These drivers include: an expanding population in this scenic community which maintains a quaint rural character while being close to employment centers in Salem and Portland; new regulatory considerations, including a thermal load limit and waste load allocations included in the pending Molalla-Pudding Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL); I/I contributions to the wastewater collection system, reducing available capacity for growth; limited capacity for biosolids treatment and storage, and limited options for biosolids final disposal. This Wastewater Facility Master Plan addresses these drivers and balances short- and long-term needs to effectively meet treatment requirements and support future growth while minimizing the impact on ratepayers.

Silverton Notice of Adopted Amendment (2007-05-17)
(Silverton, 2007-05-17) Silverton (Or.)
The Silverton City Council adopted the Economic Opportunities Analysis Report as a support document to the 2002 Silverton Comprehensive Plan by adopting Resolution No 07-08. The Silverton Planning Commission also adopted the report by unanimous approval of Resolution PC-07-01.

This effort is underway and actual Comprehensive Plan re-designations and/or expansion of the Urban Growth Boundary with re-designation of land will be processed through land use reviews.

Silverton Notice of Adopted Amendment (2007-08-06)
(Silverton, 2007-08-06) Silverton (Or.)
These proposed amendments provide clear and objective standards in addition to those applicable to permitted uses in a particular zone. The intent is to expand the clearly defined objective standards to address situations that may occur in multiple zones (e.g. caretaker units, contractors offices, accessory structures, drive-up windows, park and ride facilities, etc.) so that conditional use permit review is unnecessary for uses that can meet the standards, which apply in multiple zones.
