Subdivisions

Subdivisions are the division of land into more than three (3) lots.  Subdivisions are generally governed by Chapter 92 of the Oregon Revised Statutes.  Specific subdivision design standards such as lot size, block length, and other dimensional requirements are left to the City to implement.  Subdivisions go through a preliminary review that may be conducted by staff, the Hearings Officer, or the Sherwood Planning Commission depending on the proposed number of lots. Subdivisions under ten lots are a Type II process, between 11 and 50 are a Type III and subdivisions over 50 lots are a Type IV process.  Final subdivision and plat review is conducted by staff.
