Newberry Country Plan

Background

In 2013, Deschutes County adopted the Newberry Country Plan as an appendix to the County's Comprehensive Plan. Defined roughly as the area of Deschutes County south of Lava Butte to the County line, this plan provides area specific goal and policy guidance for growth and development over a 20-year period.
