    Polk County : comprehensive plan
    (Polk County, 2004) Polk County (Or.); Polk County (Or.). Community Development Dept. Planning Section
    This current addition of the Polk County Comprehensive Plan comprises the original text adopted in 1978 and all subsequent revisions through December 20, 1989. The Plan includes a series of Background Reports, segregated into thirteen (13) separate elements. These elements include: Citizen Involvement; Agricultural Lands; Forest Lands; Natural Resources; Willamette River Greenway; Land Capability and Resources Quality; Recreation; Population and Economics; Public Facilities and Services; Urbanization; Housing; Transportation; and Energy Conservation. The reports provide an accounting of circumstances prevailing during the period they were authored (mid to late 1970's).... This document is the text of the Comprehensive Plan which sets forth goals and policies resulting from the background studies contained in the aforementioned reports. Together with the Comprehensive Plan Map, these goals and policies are intended to serve as a guide for land use planning and development in Polk County. Included within this text are provisions for review, evaluation and update of the Plan and procedures for its amendment. And finally, the Implementation section of the Plan is a brief overview of techniques and tools available for carrying out Plan goals, policies and general intent. [From the Plan]

    Polk County : Regional water needs assessment
    (Polk County (Or.), 2004-06) Economic and Engineering Services, Inc.; Polk County (Or.)
    The objectives of this work are to examine the Count's need for water and identify a safe and reliable long-term source of water for the study participants. This work is intended to conduct a "fatal flaws" analysis of the various potential sources in recommending possibly two or three options that merit further investigation. These analyses will examine the potential costs, environmental impacts, permitting limitations, capacities, reliability, water quality, risks from natural or man-made hazards, and location (i.e. proximity to location of need) in developing a set of recommended supply alternatives.
