may be established in any area zoned for exclusive farm use:
  (a) Churches and cemeteries in conjunction with churches.
  (b) The propagation or harvesting of a forest product.
  (c) Utility facilities necessary for public service, including

established as provided in ORS 215.275.
  (d) A dwelling on real property used for farm use if the
dwelling is occupied by a relative of the farm operator or the

does or will require the assistance of the relative in the
management of the farm use and the dwelling is located on the
same lot or parcel as the dwelling of the farm operator.
Notwithstanding ORS 92.010 to 92.192 or the minimum lot or parcel
size requirements under ORS 215.780, if the owner of a dwelling
described in this paragraph obtains construction financing or
other financing secured by the dwelling and the secured party

parcel.
  (e) Nonresidential buildings customarily provided in
conjunction with farm use.

  (f)   { - Subject to ORS 215.279, - }  Primary or accessory
dwellings customarily provided in conjunction with farm use. For
a primary dwelling, the dwelling must be on a lot or parcel that
is managed as part of a farm operation and is not smaller than
the minimum lot size in a farm zone with a minimum lot size
acknowledged under ORS 197.251. { +  The determination of whether
a primary or accessory dwelling is authorized under this
paragraph may not be based on the income produced from farm use
on the lot or parcel upon which the dwelling will be sited. + }
  (g) Operations for the exploration for and production of
geothermal resources as defined by ORS 522.005 and oil and gas as
defined by ORS 520.005, including the placement and operation of
compressors, separators and other customary production equipment

or construction relating to such operations shall not be a basis
for an exception under ORS 197.732 (2)(a) or (b).
  (h) Operations for the exploration for minerals as defined by
ORS 517.750. Any activities or construction relating to such

  (i) One manufactured dwelling or recreational vehicle, or the
temporary residential use of an existing building, in conjunction
with an existing dwelling as a temporary use for the term of a
hardship suffered by the existing resident or a relative of the
resident. Within three months of the end of the hardship, the
manufactured dwelling or recreational vehicle shall be removed or
demolished or, in the case of an existing building, the building
shall be removed, demolished or returned to an allowed
nonresidential use. The governing body or its designee shall
provide for periodic review of the hardship claimed under this
paragraph. A temporary residence approved under this paragraph is
not eligible for replacement under paragraph (q) of this
subsection.

  (L) Temporary public road and highway detours that will be
abandoned and restored to original condition or use at such time
as no longer needed.
  (m) Minor betterment of existing public road and highway
related facilities, such as maintenance yards, weigh stations and
rest areas, within right of way existing as of July 1, 1987, and

inventory as historic property as defined in ORS 358.480.
  (o) Creation, restoration or enhancement of wetlands.
  (p) A winery, as described in ORS 215.452 or 215.453.

nonresidential use within three months of the completion of the
replacement dwelling. A replacement dwelling may be sited on any
part of the same lot or parcel. A dwelling established under this
paragraph shall comply with all applicable siting standards.
However, the standards shall not be applied in a manner that
prohibits the siting of the dwelling. If the dwelling to be
replaced is located on a portion of the lot or parcel not zoned
for exclusive farm use, the applicant, as a condition of
approval, shall execute and record in the deed records for the
county where the property is located a deed restriction
prohibiting the siting of a dwelling on that portion of the lot

statement of release is placed in the deed records for the
county. The release shall be signed by the county or its designee
and state that the provisions of this paragraph regarding
replacement dwellings have changed to allow the siting of another
dwelling. The county planning director or the director's designee
shall maintain a record of the lots and parcels that do not

this paragraph, including a copy of the deed restrictions and
release statements filed under this paragraph; and
  (ii) For which the applicant has requested a deferred
replacement permit, is removed or demolished within three months
after the deferred replacement permit is issued. A deferred
replacement permit allows construction of the replacement
dwelling at any time. If, however, the established dwelling is
not removed or demolished within three months after the deferred
replacement permit is issued, the permit becomes void. The
replacement dwelling must comply with applicable building codes,
plumbing codes, sanitation codes and other requirements relating
to health and safety or to siting at the time of construction. A
deferred replacement permit may not be transferred, by sale or
otherwise, except by the applicant to the spouse or a child of
the applicant.
