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 current Development Code does not allow approval of long-range plans. Instead, each development on an institutional campus (such as a hospital or college) is reviewed separately.
The public is invited to attend this community forum to review the draft approach to allowing master plan approvals.

The Code changes address the following issues:
Height and bulk of new homes
Height transitions (between single-family homes and more intense uses such as commercial uses, apartments or condominiums)
Property owners, stakeholders and interested parties are invited to attend our second community forum for the Rockwood Design Standards project. This forum is intended to gather community input on the preferred approach to the Design Guidelines and Standards. The evening will include an open house at 6:30, a presentation starting at 6:45 and small group work sessions to conclude the evening.
This project is intended to implement the vision for Rockwood by establishing an urban design framework and creating regulations to ensure that the physical environment of Rockwood - its buildings, streetscapes and pedestrian environments - match that vision for a quality place.

Meeting Notice
The next meeting scheduled for the Retail Design and Development Standards project is a public hearing with the Planning Commission on Monday, November 8, 2010 at 6:30 pm.
A message from Susan Wells, President, SWNA:
For some reason the Large Retail Development Standards (Big Box Code) has been moved to emergency status, which means meeting dates have been moved up. It appears as though things are on track to get the new code approved and in place very quickly. This all seems good but, we still need to be active, take part and make sure it happens. We need the Planning Commission and the City Council to both approve the new code. Usually when the City Council has a hearing and approves items they are then enacted a few weeks later and then the date for effectiveness (or start) is set after that. For some reason the hearing, enactment and an effective date are all to be done in one reading at one meeting.
If you can attend both or either of these meetings please make an appearance. We need folks to show support and we need folks to speak and suggest that this code be approved.
These will be the last 2 meetings regarding this issue.
Thank You!
