Sisters Planning Commission workshop reviews structure and navigation of development code
Summary
Staff presented a step-by-step orientation to the city's development code, emphasizing the online portal, definitions, and chapters commissioners should reference when evaluating land-use proposals.
The Sisters Planning Commission used a workshop session to review the structure and use of the city's development code, an effort staff described as educational and intended to prepare commissioners for future land-use reviews. Chair (pro tem) opened the session by saying it was a chance for commissioners to ask about "where things are the way they are" in the code, and staff walked through how the code is organized online.
A staff member explained that Title 16 contains the development code and highlighted the online searchable portal as the staff's primary reference. "So, what we're gonna do today is kinda lead you through kind of how the code is laid out," Chair (pro tem) said. Staff told commissioners that the workshop would focus on definitions, land-use districts, development standards and review procedures, and encouraged commissioners to flag areas where they wanted more education or future code amendments.
