Land Use & Zoning
Under Oregon land use law, what is a 'quasi-judicial' land use decision?
AA decision made only by a judge
BA decision applying existing standards to specific facts in a contested proceeding, such as a conditional use permit hearing✓ Correct
CA decision about federal lands managed by BLM

Explanation
Quasi-judicial land use decisions apply existing laws and standards to specific facts in a hearing-like process with notice, evidence, and findings. Examples include conditional use permits, variances, and subdivision approvals. Because these decisions are quasi-judicial (not purely legislative), Oregon due process requirements apply, and LUBA has jurisdiction to review.
