Washington County : East Hillsboro community plan
(Washington County (Or.), 2003-12) Washington County (Or.)
The East Hillsboro Plan represents a unique relationship between Washington County and the City of Hillsboro. The East Hillsboro Planning Area has been identified as part of the City of Hillsboro "Active Planning Area." Under the active plan concept, a city accepts planning responsibilities for areas outside of its corporate limits because the city feels the area will ultimately have to annex in order to receive urban services. Although some portions of the East Hillsboro Planning Area will have to rely upon the City for urban services, other portions can obtain the services for urban development required by the County urban growth management policies through service districts other than the City. Because of this possibility for development in both the City and the County, the City of Hillsboro and Washington County have agreed to a joint planning process for the East Hillsboro Planning Area.
