Throughout 2023, property and business owners have reached out to the City with various requests to amend the development code in an effort to support business retention, growth, and attraction (Comprehensive Plan Goal 4.2). And earlier this year (2024) City Council directed staff to implement these requests under a code update. 

The City of Tualatin is proposing a Plan Text Amendment to Chapters 39, 53, 54, 57, and 80 of the Tualatin Development Code to expand and modernize permitted land uses in various commercial zoning districts in support of economic enterprise. The following are included in the project:

  • Add Durable Goods Sales – Retail Sales of Home Improvement Materials and Supplies as a limited use in the Central Commercial (CC) Zone;
  • Add Commercial Recreation – Health and Fitness Facility as a limited use in the General Commercial (CG) Zone;
  • Add Durable Goods Sales – Battery Electric Vehicle Showroom as a limited use in the Mixed Use Commercial (MUC) Zone; and
  • Expand hours of operation for retail sales of cannabis facilities and medical dispensaries.
