Rivers Wants To Talk To DLCD About Odell

Hood River County Commission Chair Ron Rivers says he wants to make another effort to complete an unincorporated communities plan for Odell, and wants answers from the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development.  Rivers says he has invited DLCD representatives to have a face-to-face conversation about what he feels are hurdles from the state that prevent the County from being able to complete a plan.  Administrator David Meriwether says the issue has been how large an unincorporated area can there be in Odell, with the County wanting a larger area than the state.  Both Rivers and Meriwether say that would be to accommodate future housing and growth needs.  Last week, the County Commission approved sending a letter to the Oregon Legislature in support of removing a ban on inclusionary zoning in the state.
