Oregon Land Conservation and Development Department

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) is the chief land use planning and regulatory agency of the government of the U.S. state of Oregon. [1]

LCD was established in 1973 by passage by the Oregon Legislative Assembly of the Oregon Land Use Act (SB 100). Prior to that time, despite early state actions implementing some state land policy through its jurisdiction over state highways, land use planning was almost exclusively exercised by municipalities and counties.
