Working with the City
Neighborhood District Board Operations
Running a neighborhood district is about building the team and keeping members engaged for the long haul. If you are a neighborhood leader, access tools that will help your neighborhood district thrive:
Land Use Education
Neighborhood districts play a significant role in informing the community about and use planning in Bend.
Neighborhood district representatives often hear from the community that land use is difficult to understand.
Land Use Chair Contacts
Info for Developers: Are you planning a Neighborhood Public Meeting? Please send public meeting notices directly to the Land Use Chair of the neighborhood district in which the development is located. If the development is not located in a neighborhood district or if you need help with contact information, please contact Brenna Visser, Communications Coordinator.
Also check out the City’s resources for Neighborhood Public Meetings that will help your meeting be successful.
