Deschutes County 2040 Open Houses

How should low-value farmland be used? What type of housing should be allowed in rural areas? What role should the County play in parks and recreation? What type of incentives should be offered to conserve water? As Deschutes County grows over the next 20-years, staff and community members have an opportunity to provide new direction for growth and development in rural Deschutes County.

Community members are invited to provide their thoughts and perspectives on policy directions for key issues facing the County through the next 20 years. For more information on the Deschutes County 2040, Comprehensive Plan Update project, visit www.deschutes.org/2040.
