Deschutes County has been one of the most rapidly growing parts of Oregon for many years. This growth can cause tension and high light trade-offs between community priorities, such as the need for housing, preservation of natural resources, adequate infrastructure and intergovernmental collaboration. To manage this growth, the County partners with its cities, special districts and state and federal agencies to ensure a collaborative approach to development activities. As the County continues to navigate emerging issues, intergovernmental agreements and new partnerships will be key.
