This category includes plans, often officially adopted as subordinate parts of comprehensive plans, for smaller units of a city, such as neighborhoods, downtown areas or central business districts (CBDs). These documents may also be called "refinement plans" or "community plans". A special case is the sort of community plan that must be produced before lands newly included in the Portland Metro Urban Growth Boundary may be developed.

Sherwood : Adams Avenue North concept plan (2009)
(City of Sherwood (Or.), 2009-04-06) Sherwood (Or.); Harper Houf Peterson Righellis; Cogan Owens Cogan (Firm); DKS Associates
