Oregon City Housing Authority shares plans for Oregon City View Manor sale

Oregon City is making strides in addressing housing needs and community development, as discussed in the City Commission Regular Meeting on June 4, 2025. A key focus was the future of Oregon City View Manor, which is set to be sold privately. The city aims to ensure that current residents will have priority access to new housing options in the upcoming Park Place development.

Devon, a representative from the housing authority, confirmed that no residents will be relocated from Oregon City View Manor until the new project is completed. This careful approach aims to minimize disruption for those currently living in the facility. The city is also exploring options for the property’s future, with discussions about preserving part of the site for affordable homeownership opportunities, as suggested by county commissioners.

Community engagement has been a priority, with residents expressing interest in the city purchasing a portion of the site for park development. This feedback highlights a recognized need for more green spaces in the area, which has been described as park deficient. The city acknowledges the challenges of urbanization in the past and is committed to improving community resources.

As the city moves forward with these housing initiatives, the collaboration with local stakeholders and residents will be crucial. The positive response from the Park Place neighborhood indicates a strong community commitment to these developments. The city plans to keep the public informed as the project progresses, ensuring that residents remain engaged in the decision-making process.
