Abstract
  • An attempt is made to identify any significant impact of the Salem urban growth boundary implementation on rural residential development and land value outside of the boundary. Studies done in 1972 examine possible boundary impacts, but definite conclusions were not made because county rural development policy had not been finalized. This research analyzes subdivision trends and land value impacts in relation to boundary and rural development policy implementation. A multiple regression analysis of land value on independent variables is done n an attempt to isolate boundary and rural zoning impacts on the land value of parcels between one and fifteen acres (.405 and 6.07 hectares) outside of the boundary. Results of the multiple regression analysis show that zoning in accordance to rural development policy had more of a significant impact on land value than boundary implementation. Limitations of this research must be considered with the results. The possibility exists that impact associated with the urban growth boundary could have occurred prior to 1973 when the boundary was in its proposal stage.
