College May Move to Sisters

Gutenberg College, a private four year liberal arts college based in Eugene, is exploring the relocation of its College to Sisters. The College plans to file a planning application with the with of Sisters on Friday, December 17, seeking an amendment to the Sisters Development Code to allow colleges as a conditionally permitted use in the City’s light industrial zone. The Development Code currently allows vocational schools in this zone via a conditional use permit. The purpose of a conditional use permit allows the City to review uses that are permitted in the underlying zoning district but which because of their size; operation or other characteristics require review on a case-by-case basis. As part of the exploration process, Gutenberg officials will be available to answer questions about the college’s programs, curriculum and its reasons for selecting Sisters. A community forum is planned for Thursday, December 16 at 5:00 p.m. at the Sisters Library Community Room.
