Multnomah County’s Land Use Planning Division is looking for two Multnomah County residents to serve as volunteer members on the County’s Planning Commission.
The Multnomah County Planning Commission addresses rural land use planning issues to meet state planning requirements and the policies set forth by the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners.
The Planning Commission makes recommendations to the Board for adoption, revision or repeal of the Comprehensive Plan, zoning code and other regulatory ordinances.
The Planning Commission typically meets on the first Monday of every month (except for holidays and the month of July) starting at 6:30 p.m. Most meetings either take place virtually or at the Multnomah Building located at 501 S.E. Hawthorne Blvd., in Portland. The commission consists of nine members who serve four-year terms and are appointed by the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners.
Applications must be received no later than Friday, March 15, 2024 (unless extended). An online application is located here or may be requested via U.S. mail by calling 503-988-0188 or emailing kevin.c.cook@multco.us.
Applications may be submitted online or by mail.
