Description: The first step of the Bureau of Planning & Sustainability's Buildable Lands Inventory (BLI) model is used to identify parcels that are likely to redevelop in the City of Portland -- parcels that are either vacant or significantly underutilizing their allowed development capacity. FAR and building height limits are the primary limiting factor on development in employment, commercial, and high-density residential areas. In multi-family and single-family residential areas, capacities are determined by the allowed number of residential units.
This portion of the BLI modeling process consists of 3 basic steps:
1) calculate existing building square footages and allowed development limits (in terms of building square footage or number of residential units);
2) identify parcels using significantly less than their allowed development capacity (using less than 20% of available capacity, not including any development bonuses or incentives);
3) apply development constraints to these parcels and calculate remaining capacity in terms of building square footage, allowed number of residential units, and allowed number of jobs.
The attached graphics illustrate the process in more detail.
This featureclass is the result of that analysis. It is used to determine the total supply of residential and employment land, which is an input into subsequent steps of the BLI model, which allocates forecasted units and jobs to different areas of the City.
--Additional Information:
Category: Development
Purpose: To quantify the existing development capacity within Portland under current and proposed land use regulations; to identify likely redevelopment scenarios and prospective clusters of future development activity by identifying sites that are significantly underutilizing their allowed development capacity; to generate development capacity statistics for different areas of the City to highlight the differences in terms of existing and allowed development capacity; and to serve as a basis for predicting residential and employment allocation based on regional growth forecasts.

Description: Allocation of Metro 2035 forecast for the City of Portland to a 250'X250' grid covering the City of Portland area. Forecast is allocated to cells based on development trends, employment densities, and underlying development capacity per the GIS-based buildable lands inventory (BLI) allocation and capacity models. Growth is allocated based on the current proposed comprehensive plan landuse designations and a proposed ("preferred") growth scenario that resulted from the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability's (BPS) 2012 Growth Scenario Analysis.
For more information, refer to the 2012 growth scenarios report: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/bps/article/449300
This report is in the process of being updated to include the new preferred scenario. Expected completion is early 2015.
BPS is also producing a technical report describing the GIS-based allocation model. Expected completion is December 2014. There is an existing report that describes the capacity calculations of the model and how underutilized residential and employment sites are identified: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/bps/article/408232
Information on development constraints and allocation methodology/assumptions will be added to the new technical report. In the interim, the main assumptions of the model, a series of graphics illustration the methodology and workflow, and a detailed description of the input development constraints are attached to this metadata info.

Description: The official centers boundaries.
Part of the preferred growth scenario, CENTERS provide the primary areas for growth and change in Portland overthe next 25 years. They are compact urban places that anchor complete neighborhoods, featuring retail storesand businesses (grocery stores, restaurants, markets, shops, etc.), civic amenities (libraries, schools, communitycenters, churches, temples, etc.) housing options, health clinics, employment centers and parks or other publicgathering places. Centers transition in scale to surrounding lower density neighborhoods using “middlehousing” building types – rowhouses, duplexes, triplexes, etc. – at their edges. Targeting new growth in centersand the inner ring districts helps achieve goals of having more Portlanders live in complete neighborhoods, usemore mass transit and active transportation, reduce their energy use and mitigate climate change. -- Additional Information:

Name: Gentrification and Displacement Risk Typology
Display Field: STATE
Type: Feature Layer
Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon
Description: Gentrification and displacement have been long-standing concerns in Portland. In response, the community set a goal for increased equity through the Portland Plan. The Portland Plan sets an expectation that an equitable city should be proactive about the inequitable impacts that neighborhood change and gentrification can have on vulnerable households. Specifically, it called for approaches to help evaluate and better manage potential gentrification impacts of new policies and programs. As part of efforts to evaluate potential gentrification impacts, the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability (BPS) contracted with Dr. Lisa Bates to prepare a paper on how to assess vulnerability of different neighborhoods to increased gentrification pressure. Although gentrification can also have impacts on businesses or commercial space, this research focuses on the risks for residential displacement. This paper also includes a review of national best practices, including policy tools and programs that Portland could use to mitigate gentrification. https://www.portlandoregon.gov/BPS/article/700970.

Being listed in the HRI is not a historic "designation, although a demolition delay period may apply under City of Portland regulations. In 2013, the original HRI records were exported from older files to MapWorks. Some data fields were abbreviated. There may be inconsistencies and errors in the data. For example, many sites have been redeveloped since 1984, and demolitions were not recorded. Also, over 100 buildings have been removed from the HRI on request of property owners. The HRI records cannot be updated to reflect all the changes and removals that have occurred since 1984.

Description: A Local Improvement District (LID) is a method by which a group of property owners can share in the cost of infrastructure improvements, most commonly for transportation and stormwater. This involves improving the street, building sidewalks, and installing a stormwater management system. An LID can also be used to install sidewalks on existing streets that previously have been accepted for maintenance by the City. Financing is offered for up to 20 years, with the first payment not due until after the project is complete.LIDs are most commonly used to improve unpaved streets. If an LID is formed, the City manages the design and construction of the project, and property owners do not pay until the work is complete. Streets can also be improved under a permit job, in which case the project is privately managed and financed up front by property owners. LIDs have also been successfully used to provide sanitary sewer, water main improvements, traffic signal and utility undergrounding improvements in conjunction with street improvements for economies of scale to provide comprehensive and complete infrastructure solutions to neighborhoods.

Description: The Transportation Systems Plan (TSP) is the long-range plan to guide transportation investments in Portland. Originally developed in 2002 and last updated in 2007, the TSP meets state and regional planning requirements and addresses local transportation needs for cost-effective street, transit, freight, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure improvements. The plan will provide transportation options for residents, employees, visitors, and firms doing business in Portland, making it more convenient to walk, bike, take transit -- and drive less -- while meeting their daily needs. Forecasted 20 year revenues are only ? to ½ of the amount needed to implement the City and other agency candidate projects and programs. City staff will use performance-based evaluation criteria, along with public comments, to recommend which projects to place on the higher priority 'Financially Constrained' list in the 2015 TSP. TSP Project Areas represent area (polygon) locations of proposed transportation projects over the next 20 years. Planned TSP projects are also represented as lines (Comprehensive Plan TSP Project Lines) and areas (Comprehensive Plan TSP Project Areas) in separate GIS datasets.

Description: Vulnerability risk analysis is a tool that identifies census tracts in Portland that have higher-than-citywide average populations that are vulnerable to changing economic conditions. They have characteristics that make resisting displacement more difficult: they are renters rather than homeowners, belong to communities of color, lack college degrees, and havel ower incomes.These data provide an update to the gentrification impactevaluation that Dr. Lisa Bates prepared for the Bureau of Planning and Sustainabilityin 2012. The 2012 study titled, “Gentrification and displacement study:Implementing an equitable inclusive development strategy in the context ofgentrification” is available at: https://www.portlandoregon.gov/bps/62635.An updated study is scheduled for release in May 2018. The vulnerability analysis is one of the three componentsof an assessment tool that operationalize a conceptual definition ofgentrification and displacement risk. Demographic changes and housing marketappreciation are the two other components. The vulnerability score, demographicchange and the status of the housing market in various combinations determinespecific stages of gentrification and displacement risk.
