WebDrawer

The City of Sherwood is a member of the Oregon Records Management Solution (ORMS) allowing us to increase citizen access to public records. You may search for frequently requested records such as Ordinances, Resolutions, Meeting Records, and other historical documents.

For your convenience, we have pre-set search parameters on frequently requested records. Click the links below to view our collections.

The naming conventions used on certain records will result in some pre-set searches returning a range of different record types in addition to the requested records. For example, the pre-set Ordinance search will produce all ordinance records as well as several resolutions that reference the word “ordinance” in the title.

IMPORTANT: A record must be downloaded from the WebDrawer website in order to perform a full-text search on the document.
