Board of Commissioners - Monday Meeting - 2026-03-16

Deschutes County Board of Commissioners, Planning Commission, and Hearings Officer process land use applications under Oregon's statewide land use planning system (Goal-based framework). The county applies Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) and Forest Use (FU) zoning on large portions of unincorporated land, with development concentrated in urban growth boundaries around Bend, Redmond, and Sisters. Bend's UGB expansion areas generate subdivision and zone change applications as newly annexed land transitions from rural to urban densities. Destination resort and tourist commercial applications in the Mt. Bachelor and Sunriver corridors are distinctive to this market. Oregon's unique land use appeal process through LUBA (Land Use Board of Appeals) makes local hearing decisions particularly consequential.
