THE PROCESS
How the CPO participates
Clackamas County notifies appropriate stakeholders, including CPOs, about certain land-use applications. A CPO may review proposals and offer recommendations based on applicable county standards. The county makes the final permitting decision.
1. Notice
For qualifying proposals, county Planning and Zoning provides notices and access to application materials.
2. Review
Neighbors can examine the proposal, its location, and the relevant zoning criteria.
3. Community input
The CPO may consider the matter at a public meeting and submit comments or a recommendation.
For the county’s full description of the review process and deadlines, consult the official CPO Handbook.
