Zoning & Comprehensive Plan Map
The Zoning Map details zoning districts (also known as "zones"), overlays (such as the Flood Slope Hazard and Bornstedt Village Overlay), planned development locations, and other details pertinent to planning in Sandy. Zoning regulations describe how land will be used for residential, commercial, industrial, or parks/open space needs and how the land can be used (also known as "uses") in a given zoning district. All these zoning regulations are specified in a detailed legislative policy document called the City of Sandy Development Code, which determines if a use is permitted, conditional, or not permitted.
The Comprehensive Plan provides direction through goals, objectives, and policies to guide future development of Sandy. The plan is mandated by the state to conform to Oregon Statewide Planning Goals. The existing Comprehensive Plan, named Envision Sandy 2050, was adopted on October 7, 2024, to guide development to the year 2050. The maps on this web-page will be updated once Envision Sandy 2050 is officially effective on November 6, 2024.
