Interested Oregon City citizens are invited to apply for a position on the Oregon City 2040 (OC2040) Comprehensive Plan Update Project Advisory Team (PAT). The deadline to apply for the PAT has been extended to June 10, 2020. The PAT will help Oregon City craft a vision for how to approach development over the next 20 years and update our Comprehensive Plan to implement the vision and guide city decision making.
Future development, projects, and plans must comply with the Comprehensive Plan, which makes this plan very important to reflect the aspirations of all community members. No technical knowledge is required other than a love for Oregon City and a willingness to solicit feedback and report back regularly to the group you represent.
The overall project will start by with significant public involvement to create a Community Vision.
Equity in Public Involvement
The City is committed to engaging the community early and often throughout the process using a variety of means. “The City Commission and staff are excited to hear from the community and citizens throughout Oregon City about their vision for the next 20 years,” said Pete Walter, Oregon City Senior Planner. “The first step is forming a Project Advisory Team that represents a range of interests and perspectives. We are going to emphasize engaging communities of color and others who have not been represented in the past, and actively include those groups in this process. The PAT will also help the City staff and consultants integrate a variety of fun and useful public engagement tools so that people can be involved where they live, work, learn, and play”.
Project Advisory Team
The PAT will consist of approximately 25 people who demonstrate a balanced commitment to the adopted scope of work and represent a broad spectrum of the city. The City has identified the following organizations and interests for the PAT. Members may serve in overlapping capacities.
