The City of Portland and other agencies are working on many zoning code and transportation projects that directly affect the livability of Homestead residents.  There are so many projects that at times it is difficult to stay informed.  The following links may help.you get current information about these projects.

COP Land Use Updates (September 2018) This document provides information about the many zoning code projects that are currently underway.

SW Corridor and OHSU Connector Project.  This project is so large and encompassing that it is difficult to get specific information quickly and easily about the various moving parts.  Be sure to at least access the Library Project page from the main website.  This will give you information without all the PR messaging.

SW News.  This link will take you to the SWNI (Southwest Neighborhoods Inc.) website where you can access an electronic version of the current newspaper or subscribe to receive a paper copy.  This newspaper provides news from all southwest neighborhood associations along with current information about many of the projects and issues affecting southwest neighborhoods.
