Tigard MADE
Tigard MADE is a new project that aims to Maintain, Advance, & Diversify Employment in Tigard. This project looks at our employment lands – where we work, play, and eat – and asks what can we do better?
That’s where you come in – whether you’re a business owner, developer, or community member in Tigard, we want to hear from you!
We want to know – what do you want closer to home? How can we help you get your business started? What do you look for in a neighborhood, a business location, a development site?
The focus of this project is on encouraging job growth, economic equity, and environmental sustainability through updates to our Development Code, which sets the regulations for where uses can locate and how things can be built. But we’re hoping to learn more about all kinds of business and development needs, including those that go beyond the Code itself, to offer support where it’s needed most.
It’s important to us that we connect with a diverse range of community members, so the changes we make are representative of the various backgrounds, languages, age groups, abilities, and education levels that make up our business and residential communities.
