ReCode Portland
The goal of ReCode Portland was to create a new, unified development code to serve Portland for the 21st century. The new code under ReCode is designed to be more user-friendly, advance the goals of the city’s comprehensive plan, Portland’s Plan 2030, and better equip the City to meet needs in areas such as housing, design, preservation, conservation, the working waterfront, energy, and transportation.
ReCode was a multi-phased process. The first phase, Phase I, which concluded with the adoption of a new land use code in November of 2020, included new regulations for signs, updates to the accessory dwelling unit (ADU) and parking provisions, and an organizational restructuring of the land use code. Phase II began immediately following the conclusion of Phase I, and included revisions to every aspect of the land use code. This page focuses mainly on the Phase II process, where the most substantive policy work of ReCode occurred.
