Milwaukie Planning Commission Meeting - 02/24/2026

The City of Milwaukie Oregon Planning Commission held a meeting on February 24, 2026, primarily to consider a conditional use permit application for a martial arts training and educational facility at 5484 Southeast International Way. The commission reviewed the proposal's consistency with zoning ordinances and comprehensive plan criteria, noting the site's history of similar uses and ample parking. The application was approved unanimously after discussion of its compatibility with the business industrial zone and community benefits. Additionally, the commission discussed a series of municipal code amendments related to residential development standards, accessory dwelling units, townhouses, fencing regulations, and land division procedures. These amendments aim to clarify and update development standards, including provisions for attached ADUs, design standards for plex units, and flexibility in plat approvals. The meeting concluded with community involvement updates and no further procurement-related actions.
