14th Street Reconstruction Project – April 6, 2018
Code Update - City Wide ReZone
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map Alignment
Bend has two maps that determine how land can be used: the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning Map. There are slight differences between the two and a conversation is brewing over how to align those two maps. There is a proposal to do a blanket rezone of 2,634 acres rather than a parcel by parcel approach.
The topic came up in City Council Feb 7th.in a work session,
Video taped and online for review see link below.
