City Council Authorizes Revision of the Rivergrove Land Use Ordinance (RLDO)

At the suggestion of the City Attorney and the City Planner, and having received complaints about difficulties with the Rivergrove Land Development Ordinance (RLDO), the City Council authorized a revision.  Our City Planner is putting the existing code into the template used by many Oregon cities and updating it to comply with applicable state and federal rules as well as to address items that have been issues in the past for both the Planning Commission and the City Council.  The City Planner intends to have a meeting with the public to provide information about the process. Once we have a date set for the scheduled meeting it will be posted on the city’s website and in the Rivergrove report. We are excited about these changes and hope Rivergrove residents will find the new ordinances much easier to follow.
