      390.805 to 390.925

 

NOTES OF DECISIONS

 

      An easement is not involved in the state’s right under these sections to regulate use of related adjacent land, but an easement is an additional right which the state may acquire by purchase or gift. Scott v. State Hwy. Comm., 23 Or App 99, 541 P2d 516 (1975)

 

      Time factors involved are not designed to freeze land values to subsidize later acquisition by the state, nor do they impose unreasonable restraints upon landowners. Scott v. State Hwy. Comm., 23 Or App 99, 541 P2d 516 (1975)

 

      The regulatory provisions are separate from the provisions giving the state the right to acquire land or interests in related adjacent land, and the state does not gain an interest in land by the adoption of the Act. Scott v. State Hwy. Comm., 23 Or App 99, 541 P2d 516 (1975)

 

      The state’s power to regulate is analogous to zoning restrictions and therefore the state does not acquire an interest for which compensation must be paid. Scott v. State Hwy. Comm., 23 Or App 99, 541 P2d 516 (1975)

 

      Where water would otherwise flow through scenic waterway, provisions of Scenic Waterways Act requiring showing that proposed diversion was necessary to beneficial use applied to proposed diversion in city’s application for permit to operate hydroelectric facility. Diack v. City of Portland, 306 Or 287, 759 P2d 1070 (1988)

NOTES OF DECISIONS

 

      Where petitioner challenges Water Resources Commission’s temporary rule amending OAR 690-80-060 (5)(c), Commission’s findings and statement of need do not provide adequate support for promulgation of temporary rule and rule was therefore adopted without compliance with applicable rulemaking procedures and violates Scenic Waterways Act. Waterwatch of Oregon v. Oregon Water Res. Comm., 97 Or App 1, 774 P2d 1118 (1989)

NOTES OF DECISIONS

 

      Value of improvements upon land condemned pursuant to ORS 390.805 to 390.925 is measured as of date of taking, and not as of date of Act, where development of land began before effective date of Act. State Hwy. Comm. v. Chaparral Recreation Assn., 13 Or App 346, 510 P2d 352 (1973)

 

      Provisions of this section authorizing condemnation of “related adjacent land” (for which, despite department’s disapproval, owner proposed and refused to abandon plan substantially impairing natural beauty of scenic waterway) were constitutionally applied where there was substantial evidence that taking landowners’ property was reasonably necessary and that they had made no timely and effective abandonment of objectionable proposal. State ex rel Dept. of Trans. v. Hilderbrand, 35 Or App 403, 582 P2d 13 (1978)

 

      Structures and buildings erected in connection with existing use are subject to prior notice requirement unless exempted by department rule. State Dept. of Trans. v. Solomon, 57 Or App 72, 643 P2d 1312 (1982), Sup Ct review denied
