I live in Portland in Washington county. I'm interested in setting up a backyard hive, but i dont know if it would be legal for my area. I'm interested in the law, and i also wonder about neighbor hood covenants. Not sure where to get an up to date copy of the covenants (Rock Creek) + it seems that many people in the neighbor hood routinely violate them so its not clear if they are actually to be taken serously.
Input as to how to sort out the legal questions would be most welcome.
Thanks, Scott

The above is for Multnomah County. You'll have to check Washington County for their specific rules.

I also live in Washington Co. (Tigard) and I have found so county-specific regs about keeping bees except for Multnomah's which was already linked to.
What I have found is that I have a useless b**** neighbor who complained to my HOA so now we have to go talk to the board about making rules for bees in the HOA. Legally they can't stop me, but they can make it really really uncomfortable...

I keep bees in unincorporated Washington County. The code is silent when it comes to bees. Keep in mind there is a nuicance clause though.
Come on out to the TV chapter meetings we are a welcoming bunch with a good mix of people if you get a chance. We can give you some tips as how to minimize the impact of your bees to your nieghbors.

I'm planning on keeping bees in more than one location in mult county. I'm sure I need to get signatures from neighbors for each site, but do I also need to pay a fee for each?

Recommend you contact the nice folks at Mult. Co. Vector Control: 503-988-3464. They were very helpful when I called with questions.
