(Sherman Countty (Or.), 2007) Sherman County (Or.)
The Comprehensive Plan is the public's conclusions about the development, conservation and preservation of the County. Comprehensive means all-inclusive in terms of natural and man caused activities. The term plan means the group of decisions made before changes are made in the area. The Comprehensive Plan shows how the County can best use what resources it has, to be the kind of place it would like to be in the future. [From the Plan]

Why land use planning in Sherman County? To assure that: 1) changes in land use are carefully considered for their short and long term impacts; 2) rational decisions are made and based upon factual data; 3) the community guides the use of all land; 4) equal and adequate protection is given to the rights of all landowners and citizens; and 5) actions and policies of all levels of government are coordinated.
