Abstract
  • The cities of Corvallis and Philomath, Oregon, have, over the last three decades, grown both spatially and in numbers of people. This study examines the attractions and constraints to growth between the two cities. The most notable constraint to growth is the fact that the soils in the study area are almost exclusively poor for septic tank absorption fields and sewage lagoons. Resultingly, the area is zoned with large minimum lot sizes. Other constraints include: 1) poor soils for building construction, 2) a lack of public services, and 3) a lack of legislative authority to construct needed sewer and water lines. Attractions to growth include the convenient site location between Corvallis and Philomath and the fact that the majority of the area is undeveloped and zoned residential. With emplacement of sewer mains, substantial growth can be expected. Without sewer lines, though, growth will be much more limited.
