Clatsop County planners outline work-plan priorities as state rule changes loom

Clatsop County Community Development Director Gail Henrickson told the Planning Commission that staff has incorporated the legislative amendment package from the 2025 session into the current work plan and is preparing for additional bills likely to emerge in the 2026 session. “In December, we did the legislative amendment package, which came out of the 2025 session,” Henrickson said, adding that the county will need to make code changes when new state requirements arrive.
