South Corvallis Area Plan
Over the past few years, community members have been invited to participate in planning the future of South Corvallis. These opportunities include the ODOT OR 99W Street Facility Plan and a City-led plan to review land uses and local transportation improvement opportunities in South Corvallis.
A big THANK YOU! to all of the community members who came to Lincoln Elementary School on November 21st to participate in the South Corvallis Area Plan - Scenario 1 open house. The event was well attended and lots of discussions were had. Community member participation is vital to creating good plans, and engagement is key to creating a environment where everyone is heard. If you were not able to participate in person, there are still ways to stay informed and provide your input on the area plan.

State and Local Legislative Efforts
In response to the statewide housing shortage and the climate change crisis, there have been many changes in state law related to land use that affect the planning and regulations for South Corvallis and the rest of the City. Additionally, the City has taken steps to address concerns about local housing availability and affordability, by implementing several regulatory reforms.
