The applicable criteria for an annexation are listed in Metro Code Chapter 3.09.045 and 3.09.050 and Section 12.80.010 of the Community Development Code (CDC).

Annexation of the property would also include withdrawal from the following district: Washington County R.F.P.D. #2. The annexation staff report will be available on Friday, July 1, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. The zone change staff report will be available on Tuesday, July 12, 2016 at 4:00 p.m. The complete application, staff reports, and all related criteria are available at the Hillsboro Planning Department for public inspection at no cost, and/or copies can be provided at reasonable cost.

All interested persons are invited to attend the public hearings and will be given an opportunity to be heard concerning the proposal.

Pursuant to ORS 197.763, failure to raise an issue at the final evidentiary hearing, or by close of the record, in person or by letter, or failure to provide sufficient specificity to afford the decision maker an opportunity to respond to the issue precludes appeal to the Land Use Board of Appeals based on that issue.
