The Corvallis City Council moved closer to approving one of the largest developments in the city in at least a decade.
Councilors voted unanimously on Monday night to tentatively move forward with an annexation agreement for 118 acres of property near the 53rd Street roundabout.
The decision, which still requires the council to approve formal findings at a future meeting, likely means housing â perhaps more than 1,000 units of it â will be built on the property. It would be the largest single development in Corvallis in at least a decade.
In recent years the largest developments have been student housing, including the Retreat (approximately 1,000 bedrooms), Domain Corvallis (approximately 900 bedrooms) and the Sierra complex at Washington Yards (approximately 700 bedrooms).
Those were the highlights at a high-profile City Council meeting held remotely Monday night.
Here is a look at the council action on the two major items:
Homelessness
The issue of what to do about camping on city land was resurrected by Ward 2 Councilor Charles Maughan, whose motion to stop the cleanups was tabled (postponed) at the July 6 meeting because the matter was not on the agenda.
After a lengthy discussion, including four pieces of oral testimony from residents, councilors voted 6-2 to continue to post the camps. Ward 5 Councilor Charlyn Ellis was the lone councilor to vote with Maughan, although several councilors said they were torn by the matter and praised Maughan for bringing it forward.
No move required: New Corvallis director Jeff Blaine hired from Albany
