The City of Yamhill is updating its Comprehensive Plan and Development Code to better support downtown and foster more housing affordability and choice. These updates will focus on:
Commercial Uses: Ensure that land use regulations align with the city’s economic vision for the downtown. Enhance housing opportunities by promoting mixed-use development that supports both commercial and residential growth, thereby improving downtown livability and walkability.
Residential Uses: Identify more diverse housing types, ensure compliance with applicable statutes, and establish clear and objective standards for housing project approvals. Streamline the development review process and address potential barriers within existing policies related to housing. A concurrent buildable lands inventory will identify properties suitable for development and redevelopment.
“We are excited to hear the community’s vision for downtown Yamhill and discuss a variety of choices around the types of housing people would like to see that will provide more opportunities for our residents.”
Meeting participants will learn more about the project goals and process, and comment on preliminary ideas to strengthen Yamhill’s downtown and provide more housing choices throughout the city.
Please join us for an informative evening to discuss future aspirations for Yamhill.
