PLANNING COMMISSION SEEKS VOLUNTEER
The City of Wilsonville is taking applications for the Planning Commission.

The Planning Commission is an appointed seven-member panel that is responsible for making recommendations to the City Council on all legislative land-use and planning matters. This could include plans for the regulation of future growth and development in Wilsonville, plans for the promotion of the industrial, commercial, and economic needs of the community and the study of measures that promote the public health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the city.

The Planning Commission also reviews and makes recommendations on all proposed development policies, zoning code amendments, and Comprehensive Plan amendments. In addition, the Planning Commission makes recommendations to the City Council and Urban Renewal Agency concerning transportation and public transit improvements, including the layout and location of streets, sidewalks and bike lanes, improvements to housing conditions, and the establishment of regulations that might apply to specific zones or districts, including building design and landscape standards.

Wilsonville’s Planning Commission, made up of people with diverse interests in the community, fulfills the role as the City’s official Committee for Citizen Involvement (CCI). The CCI frequently conducts work sessions and other informal public meetings that are deliberately intended to encourage an exchange of ideas and opinions without the formality of public hearings. The CCI assists the City Council in gathering information, sponsoring public meetings, and/or evaluating proposals and special projects relating to land use and civic issues when requested by elected or appointed city officials or indicated by community need.

Town Center Loop, Wilsonville, OR 97070, 503-570-1506 or via email at cityrecorder@wilsonvilleoregon.gov.
