This meeting will be held in person in Conference Room 113 located on the 1st floor at the Civic Center, 150 E Main Street, Hillsboro, AND remotely via Zoom. The City Council will consider a request for annexation of a portion of public Right-of-Way (R-O-W) approximately 0.13 acres in size into the City limits of Hillsboro and a City-initiated Zone Change to apply the City’s R-7 Residential zone upon annexation. The portion of City R-O-W along SE Rood Bridge Road is considered a County Island as all the surrounding properties are located within the City of Hillsboro. Annexation of the R-O-W would bring this island into the City of Hillsboro. The Planning Commission initiated the Zone Change at their regular meeting on April 26, 2023, recommending the City Council apply the R-7 Residential zone upon annexation. The portion of right-of-way to be annexed is located on Washington County Assessor’s Tax Map 1S2-08DD and is generally located on the east side of SE Rood Bridge Road abutting Rood Bridge Park. The property owner and applicant is the City of Hillsboro. The applicable criteria for an Annexation are listed in Metro Code Chapters 3.09.045 and 3.09.050 and Section 12.80.010 of the CDC. The applicable criteria for a Zone Change are listed in CDC Section 12.80.160. The CDC may be viewed online at http://www.hillsboro-oregon.gov/communitydevelopmentcode or in the Planning Division office. The complete application, staff report, and responses to all related criteria for the Annexation and Zone Change applications will be available at https://hillsboro-oregon.civicweb.net/ Portal/ by Thursday, May 11, 2023.
