23-046 Public Access Inventory & Code Update

The City of Bandon has initiated an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code to address Coastal Public Access. The City received financial support and technical assistance from the Department of Land Conservation and Development to conduct an inventory of public access points to coastal waters, develop a set of goals and policies addressing the protection and maintenance of these access points, and prepare a zoning code update to implement these goals and policies. This falls under a Type IV process in which the Planning Commission make a recommendation to the City Council, who ultimately approve the changes to the City's zoning code and modifications to the Comprehensive Plan. 

The City Council approved the Type IV request and adopted Ordinance 1662 at their March 4th, 2024 meeting.
