Multnomah County’s Land Use Planning Division is looking for two Multnomah County residents to serve as volunteer members on the county’s planning commission.

The planning commission addresses rural land use planning issues to meet state planning requirements and the policies made by the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners. The group makes recommendations to the board for adoption, revision or repeal of the Comprehensive Plan, zoning code and other regulatory ordinances.

The Multnomah County Planning Commission usually meets on the first Monday of every month (except for holidays and the month of July) starting at 6:30 p.m. Most meetings take place either virtually or at the Multnomah Building, at 501 S.E. Hawthorne Blvd., in Portland. The commission consists of nine members who serve four-year terms and are appointed by the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners.

Applications must be received no later than March 15 (unless extended). An online application is located  or may be requested via U.S. mail by calling 503-988-0188 or emailing [email protected].
