Ward and Jennie Ockenden own 158 acres of land that was arbitrarily rezoned from 5-acre Residential to Woodlot Resource when Josephine county drew up its Comprehensive Plan to comply with SB 100. Subsequent soil analysis determined the land is not suitable for either forestry or farming. The county acknowledged the misclassification and reverted the property to its original zoning, but local land use activists appealed to LUBA on a technicality. The Ockendens have been fighting government bureaucracy and local land use activists for 17 years to get their property restored to its original zoning. This program includes interviews with the Ockendens, a land use consultant, two former Josephine County Commissioners, and the Josephine County Counsel.
