Community Planning Organizations

The purpose of Community Planning Organizations (CPOs) is to involve citizens in land use planning in unincorporated Clackamas County. The CPO Program is the method Clackamas County uses to meet Goal 1, Citizen Involvement, of the Statewide Planning Goals.

The CPO maps are available for download in PDF format.

This list is updated regularly to identify the 40 geographic areas represented by CPOs.

Recognized CPOs

Every year the Citizen Involvement Specialist is required to undertake the review of CPO files in order to assure that requirements for official recognitions are met. CPOs are officially recognized by the Board of County Commissioners annually at a Business Meeting. The following information is required annually to insure that a CPO is recognized:

• A list of current CPO officers with addresses, phone numbers and email addresses;
• Current CPO bylaws;
• Meet at least two (2) times a year, keep minutes and provide a copy to the Citizen Involvement Specialist. However, if you meet more frequently, please submit a copy of each meeting minutes to comply with public records law.
