The council must apply to Metro for approval to have the Sherwood West area officially brought inside city limits.
With the opening of Sherwood’s beautiful new high school, our community has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to decide the future of the vacant lands around the 74-acre high school campus.
The company I work for – Metropolitan Land Group – owns land around the high school and our goal is as simple as it is bold: let’s build the best new neighborhood in Oregon around the best new high school in Oregon with housing, parks, trails and fields all safely connected to the YMCA and the rest of Sherwood neighborhoods by an iconic pedestrian bridge.
The timeline for planning and building new neighborhoods in Sherwood West is 10 to 20 years – if we start this year. In recent years, the city of Sherwood has already spent considerable public funds to study and plan for the future of Sherwood West. A citizen advisory committee is currently meeting to discuss it further.
