Land Use Hearings Officer - Z0519-25 - July 23, 2026

This was a Clackamas County Land Use Hearings Officer meeting held on July 23, 2026, to review a conditional use permit application (Z0519-25) for the placement of two modular school buildings at the Christ the Vine Lutheran Church campus. The hearing focused on land use compliance, site design, and transportation impacts related to the proposed school expansion. Staff recommended approval with conditions, including landscaping, fire access, and stormwater mitigation. Public testimony raised concerns about traffic impacts, particularly the lack of a traffic impact study and safety issues on nearby roads. The applicant and staff responded that the projected traffic increase was minimal and staggered school hours would mitigate peak congestion. The hearings officer held the record open for an additional week for further testimony and set a decision deadline for August 20, 2026. No contract awards or procurement actions were discussed during the meeting.
