DCIP-5: INSTITUTIONAL MASTER PLANS

The City of Gresham would like your help in developing a process for institutional uses to seek approval of long-term master plans.

The public is invited to attend this community forum to review the draft approach to allowing master plan approvals.

• Buffering and screening between developments
• How small-lot subdivisions are reviewed
