snippet: *Metadata needs to be updated 8/2025 The theme was created to delineate UGBs and document amendments to these boundaries since their original designations. As of September 2008 DLCD has taken over maintaining the data so a process was established obtaining data on the UGB Coverage layer for the state. To obtain as much precise data as possible to digitize the boundary layer for accuracy statewide, every city/metro UGB was assessed and updated based on DLCD, county and city records. Under the Oregon Geographic Information Council, the Framework Implementation Team has delegated the development of an Administrative Boundaries Implementation Plan and an Administrative Boundary Data Content Standard. The Administrative Boundaries Framework is a collection of prioritized, spatially referenced digital representation of broadly defined feature sets for Oregon; of which one was identified as UGBs with a Very High priority and DLCD tasked as being the steward of the data. This feature set will be detailed in the Oregon Framework database posted on the website maintained by the Geospatial Enterprise Office and updated annually.

accessInformation: This dataset was originally created in 2004 at the Oregon Department of Employment under a grant from the Oregon Geographic Information Council (OGIC). In 2006, DLCD partnered with the University of Oregon's Infographics Lab and ODOT for another comprehensive update to the data following as closely as possible the methodology followed in the 2004 project. In 2008 DLCD took stewardship of the data and began a refined methodology necessary to bring the UGB data in line with other statewide framework elements through the OGIC data standards process. UGBs were optimized with reliance on cadastral tax lot data acquired through the Oregon Department of Revenue ORMAP project. Every jurisdiction's entire UGB was reviewed against County records, City records and DLCD records. Discrepancies were verified against acknowledged plan amendments and/or City Ordinances.
