PUBLIC MEETING FOR MAJOR +33 ACRE COMMUNITY MASTER PLAN There will be a public meeting for one of the most significant new developments in Southern Crossing – the Timber Yards Major Community Master Plan – on Tuesday, December 6, 2022. The proposed development on +33 acres zoned Mixed-Use Urban is located at 175 SW Industrial Way (East and North of SW Bond Street, adjacent to the Box Factory and the Old Mill District.)
The purpose of this meeting is to provide a forum for the developer and neighbors to discuss the proposed Master Plan prior to its application submission to the City of Bend.
This meeting will focus on the longer-term planning for public facilities, making sure there is adequate transportation, sewer, and water infrastructure to serve future development. After the Master Plan is approved, the project would still have to submit a separate Subdivision and/or Site Plan Review application to the City before any development can occur. There will be an additional public meeting(s) for these applications.
While the developer does not have detailed development plans at this time it is looking at impacts to public facilities based on approximately 1,600 residential units (including 250 affordable senior housing units), 180-room hotel, 120,000 SF of offices, and 70,000 SF supporting retail, all within an interconnected mixed-use development. Future development may not actually reach these levels, but this is the general mix and intensity of uses the developer thinks may be possible.
The virtual meeting will be held via Zoom at 5:30 pm. Attendees are asked to register in advance (https://www.aks-eng.com/TimberYards/) (https://www.aks-eng.com/TimberYards/). You will receive a confirmation email with a link to join the meeting.
