Alberta Street church-to-apartments: what the land-use file asks

The notice on this register — publication number NN-2026-00066 — is a zoning and planning action for 2710 NE Alberta Street, Portland, Oregon 97211. The file is LU 26-118044 CU AD. The applicant named on the notice is Alberta Collective LLC. The hearing is scheduled for September 18, 2026, at 1:30 p.m. at 1900 SW 4th Avenue, Room 2500.

The posted text is a notice of zoning and planning action. It says the planning authority of Portland will consider a conditional use and an adjustment to convert a former church to a 24-unit apartment building with a community hall. The same sentence asks for a reduction in loading spaces. The notice does not say how many loading spaces exist today, what the base zone is, or whether staff recommends approval. Those facts are not on this register page.

The notice tells the public how to use the file. The file is available for inspection during regular office hours. Interested persons may testify or submit written comments. The posted language also says that failure to raise an issue may waive the right to appeal. That sentence is the usual land-use warning: if you care about a specific point — the church conversion, the unit count, the community hall, or the loading-space request — the notice says to raise it while the record is open.

Room 2500 at 1900 SW 4th Avenue is the address printed for the hearing. The notice does not name a board chair, a staff planner, or a remote-testimony link. If you need the staff report, the docket number on the notice is the number to ask for: LU 26-118044 CU AD. CU and AD in that file number match the two actions the body describes — conditional use and adjustment.

This page is not the hearing, not the staff report, and not a vote. It is an in-house explainer of the government-posted notice so a neighbor who opened the Multnomah hub can tell a land-use review from a garage-sale card. Notice Nearby is not a newspaper and this brief is not Legal Publication.
