The Planning Commission meets at the Deschutes Services Building (1300 NW Wall Street) in Bend, on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month at 5:30 p.m. Additional meetings and locations throughout the County may be required.
Those interested in serving are invited to submit an application, including a letter of interest and resume, describing their interest in rural land use planning issues and ability to serve collaboratively on a committee.
