Mapping Sisters Future
2021-03-30 | Deschutes Brewery Public House, 1044 NW Bond St, Bend, OR, 97701, United States
The Comprehensive Plan update could result in expanding Sisters’ Urban Growth Boundary beyond current city limits. Central Oregon LandWatch is working with the community to advocate for limited expansion to protect surrounding waterways and wildlife while also promoting complete neighborhoods where people can live close to where they work, play, and shop.
COLW researched and created a series of maps that show local agricultural land, wildlife habitat, watersheds, riparian areas, and more. COLW wants to share these with you to help make informed recommendations for Sisters’ plan.
In this virtual event, you’ll take a look at the maps, get valuable insight into how land use policy will affect the Comprehensive Plan and decisions surrounding growth, and explore opportunities for public input to provide the City with your valuable insight.
This event is open to all. We want everyone to have a seat at the table, especially surrounding such a pivotal planning process. RSVP for this virtual event here.
