Development Forums provide an opportunity for customers in the development and building industries to learn more about Washington County's development-related services, initiatives, and processing timelines. They are also an opportunity to network and provide valuable input.

Featured topics on the upcoming Development Forum agenda include:

• Successfully navigating the permitting process – from preliminary land use approval to obtaining the right permits to begin construction

• Introductions to Washington County's new Building Official, Long Range Principal Transportation Planner, and Plan Review Engineer

A full agenda is available at the Washington County Development Forum website www.co.washington.or.us/DevForum. There is no cost for the forum, but please take a moment to register by contacting Building Services at (503) 846-6749 or sending an email to [email protected].

Washington County is committed to planning and protecting the uses of the land and to building and maintaining a great transportation system--balancing care for the natural environment, economic development, safety and community livability.
