This week the Wasco County Planning Department received notice from the State Department of Land Conservation and Development that more of our adopted Chapters have been approved.

We now have ten, new Wasco County 2040 Chapters that are officially part of our updated Comprehensive Plan.

We have compiled all the new Chapters on the County website for you to review: https://www.co.wasco.or.us/departments/planning/long_range/wasco_county_2040.php

The remaining Chapters will be part of our discussions with the Citizen Advisory Group on August 4th and the Planning Commission on September 1st.  You can review the proposed Introduction Chapter, Revisions Process Chapter now.  Other proposed Chapters are pending final staff review and then will be shared here on the project website.

The hearings will be virtual via video conferencing/phone, but you can also submit comments via our website, mail or email.

Our final revisions for Periodic Review, the process to update the Comprehensive Plan, are due to the State Department of Land Conservation and Development in November 2020.
