City of Portland seeks feedback on Alpenrose Dairy residential redevelopment

The clock is now ticking on the proposed residential redevelopment of the former Alpenrose Dairy in outer Southwest Portland.

PORTLAND, Ore. (Portland Tribune) -- The clock is now ticking on the proposed residential redevelopment of the former Alpenrose Dairy in outer Southwest Portland.

City planners are beginning to seek feedback on what would be the largest new neighborhood since Forest Heights in outer Northwest Portland. Bureaus involved in the permitting process and affected neighborhood organizations have been asked for responses to the recently completed subdivision application. The Hayhurst Neighborhood Association has scheduled an online meeting to solicit comments for 7 p.m. on July 30. It will also conduct an online survey and compile the results.

Additional public comments will be accepted when a city Hearings Officer takes testimony on the proposal beginning at 1:30 p.m. on Sept. 25. Written responses will be accepted until the end of that day.

After the Hearings Officer rules whether the proposal complies with all land use planning requirements, that decision can be appealed to the City Council, which will make its own decision. That, in turn, can be appealed to the state Land Use Board of Appeals, the Oregon Court of Appeals, and, ultimately, the Oregon Supreme Court.

West Hills Land Development wants to build 263 new homes on the 51-acre property just east of Beaverton. The new subdivision will be called Raleigh Crest and include a new street grid, additional connections to adjacent streets, new water and sewer system connections, new stormwater management facilities, a new public park, and more.
