On Tuesday November 7th, Sherwood City Council held its first Work Session to discuss the fate of the city’s request to add over 1,200 acres of land into the UGB. Due December 1st, 2023, the city is required to submit its intent to expand its urban growth boundary and demonstrate financing plans to accommodate for growth to Metro. HBA and our members have been advocating for the city to adhere to smart planning practices and request for the entirety of Sherwood West to be brought into the UGB. We’ll know more following the work session, but plan to engage in a concerted advocacy effort that supports the industry’s intent to see all 1,200 acres added into the UGB.
