Open for Public Review
The City of Rivergrove is well underway drafting an all-new Development Code, and we need your help! After an open house, the City set up a subcommittee comprised of one City Council member, one Planning Commission Member, a member of the public, and the new City Manager. We started with the Oregon Model Code for Small Cities. We edited that to reflect the City of Rivergrove. We then folded in the Metro requirements and key elements of the existing Code. That gave us a baseline draft to work from, internally. Together with staff, the subcommittee went through every line of the text. After going through the code two times, making revisions and edits, the subcommittee completed their review and the Code is now ready for a public review!
Please see the link to the full proposed Development Code. We would like the public to review this draft and provide any comments to Matt Straite, the Project Planner (matts@migcom.com), by October 8, 2020.
Once the public review is completed, the new Code will go to the Planning Commission and City Council for public hearings, both of which are fully open to the public. There are no public hearing dates for the code yet, but we will keep this site updated.
