What makes the State of the City special is that we can come together as a large group to recognize Hillsboro’s accomplishments over the past year, look ahead at the exciting things to come, and celebrate what unites us in our work: our appreciation for our hometown, and our collective desire to plan for a great future.

For Carleson, the end of her tenure as Council President will allow her to focus additional time on her role as the Executive Director of the Hillsboro Schools Foundation. “I have loved this incredible opportunity and have tried to represent our future while respecting our past,” Carleson said, who served as a Councilor for the past eight years. “From the local level, you can see the impact of a crosswalk, or the jobs created with new businesses. We have been able to enhance communities by making them safer and more walkable, including adding sidewalks around school areas.” Council President Aron Carleson Mayor’s Message: State of the City 2015 Preview continued from page 1 to provide steady, consistent leadership that has already produced great results for our community. A prime example is the continued progress we have made in working with our regional partners to plan the Willamette Water Supply Program. We have taken new steps forward for our great City with the opening of the 4th Main mixed-use development, which already is fully leased for residential living. Our efforts to revitalize Downtown Hillsboro have also led us to move forward with planning for the conversion of streets in the Downtown core to two-way traffic. I’m pleased to see this strategic investment bringing, not one but two, beer-themed establishments to the Downtown, with the expectation that there will be more exciting news to come in the months ahead. A short drive from Downtown, the remodeled Shute Park Branch Library is 4th Main ribbon cutting providing residents with the modern amenities that make our libraries great community gathering spaces. The space also reflects our commitment to sustainability, as Hillsboro was recognized by the Department of Energy in 2014 for the Shute Park Branch Library’s energy-saving design. On Hillsboro’s north side, we are excited to see our businesses continue to expand and prosper, leading to more job opportunities at companies such as Reser’s Fine Foods and Davis Tool. In the center of our City, the future of housing in Hillsboro is very bright as work continues to bring more than 1,000 new apartment homes to the Platform District at Orenco Station. While we have challenges to tackle in 2015, such as providing adequate funding to keep up with our road maintenance needs, we also have The remodeled Shute Park Library exciting developments in store. Continued progress in the Orenco Platform District, South Hillsboro and Amberglen, as well as additional recreation space at Orenco Woods Nature Park and Cornell Creek Park, give our community much to anticipate. I hope you can join us again this year, on Thursday, January 29, to celebrate our community and our efforts to plan for tomorrow’s success. 2 City of Hillsboro • 150 East Main Street, Hillsboro, Oregon 97123 • 503-681-6100 • www.hillsboro-oregon.gov COUNCIL The City Council’s Commitment to Our Students & Schools CONNECTION As we look ahead to the exciting opportunities in store for the Name one of your favorite City of Hillsboro City of Hillsboro in 2015, it’s also a great time to reflect on the accomplishments in 2014: positive impact that the City Council has had on our community over the past two years.

    Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan Guides City's Future

    CITY VIEWS NEWS & EVENTS FOR THE CITY OF HILLSBORO September/October 2015 Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan Guides City’s Future Read the Complete Plan at Hillsboro2035.org Years of planning and help from thousands of community members have led to the completion of the Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan, which is available online at www.Hillsboro2035.org. The Hillsboro City Council approved the plan in late July before it was “unveiled” and distributed at Celebrate Hillsboro. Based on input and ideas from more than 5,000 community members for the future of Hillsboro, the Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan includes a vision of what people want Hillsboro to look like by the year 2035, and an action plan for getting there. The Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan builds on the success of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan, the original, award-winning plan, which led to many community enhancements, including Hondo Dog Park, community gardens, the Hillsboro Civic Center and Tom Hughes Plaza, and youth after-school programs. Residents, employees, businesses, and community organizations all weighed in with ideas for the future of Hillsboro. continued on page 2 MAYOR’S MESSAGE Ready to Volunteer? HillsDoer Day is October 3 Did you know that in 2014, more than 4,000 volunteers served 64,270 hours in Hillsboro? That’s incredible! Think of how those volunteers helped our Parks & Recreation, Library, Fire, and Police departments to deliver an even higher level of service. Others volunteered on City boards and commissions, at special events, or with community non-profit organizations. In August, the City held the 2nd Annual Volunteer BBQ at Shute Park to show appreciation to all City Mayor Jerry Willey volunteers, but the truth is, we cannot thank you enough for your service.

This new report includes all Action Plan changes made since May 2000 including those revisions which resulted from the fi rst Strategy Review process. In order for the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan to remain a viable and effective guide for shaping our community’s future, it is important to keep the Action Plan “tuned-up.” Nothing is constant but change. Community resources and priorities fl uctuate over time. To keep our community’s vision on track, it is important to adapt to the current environment while keeping our focus on the desired outcome. To this end, the Vision Implementation Committee has three processes in place to allow revisions to the Action Plan. Annually the Committee reviews and, if appropriate, recommends minor modifi cations to the Action Plan. Any new action proposals are also considered on an annual basis. Every fi fth year, a major Strategy Review process is conducted to identify proposed strategy additions and revisions. To help preserve the integrity of the original plan, which was developed with extensive community involvement, this process includes a city-wide citizen outreach effort to solicit and review new proposals for implementing the original Vision Statement.

    Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan Originally Adopted by the Hillsboro City Council in May 2000

    Vision and Action Plan Revised August 2010 January 1, 2011 On behalf of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Implementation Committee (VIC), it is my pleasure to present this update of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan originally adopted by the Hillsboro City Council in May 2000. The current version of the report incorporates all Action Plan changes made since May 2000 and new community priorities identified during last year’s Strategy Review process. To ensure the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan continues to serve as a relevant and effective guide for shaping our future, the citizen-lead Vision Implementation Committee (VIC) conducts periodic “tune-ups.” As our population changes over time, so do our resources, goals and priorities. To keep the community vision on track, it is important to adapt to the current environment while keeping our focus on the end goal - a community all of us, and future generations, are proud to call home. To this end, the VIC has established several formal processes by which the public and our partners can amend or update the Action Plan. The VIC reviews and, if appropriate, recommends minor modifications to the Action Plan on an annual basis. If submitted, new action proposals are also considered annually. Every five years, the VIC also conducts a major Strategy Review process to actively solicit new ideas or necessary refinements. To help preserve the integrity of the original plan, which was developed with extensive community involvement, this process includes a city-wide citizen outreach effort to solicit and review new proposals for implementing the original Vision Statement.
