    HILLSBORO 2035 COMMUNITY PLAN OUR SHARED VISION FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE AUGUST 2020 HILLSBORO2035.ORG A SHARED VISION FOR OUR COMMUNITY: IN 2035, HILLSBORO IS AN INCLUSIVE, WELCOMING MULTICULTURAL COMMUNITY THAT SUPPORTS A RESILIENT, WORLD-CLASS ECONOMY AND DYNAMIC URBAN TAPESTRY WHILE CONTINUING TO HONOR OUR AGRICULTURAL HERITAGE AND COMMITMENT TO ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP. LETTER FROM THE MAYOR August 2020 It is my pleasure to introduce the updated Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan. This edition includes new strategies and actions culled from nearly 8,000 ideas shared by thousands of people since the 2035 Community Plan was adopted in 2015. In Hillsboro, we pride ourselves in being an inclusive and equitable community as reflected in this quote from the City’s Equity and Inclusion Statement: “Equity work aims to remove barriers and eliminate social and economic disparities by centering those who have been excluded from the decision-making process”. These periodic vision plan updates are one of the many important ways STEVE CALLAWAY, MAYOR we demonstrate this as it offers new and traditionally underserved community members an equal opportunity to help inform the ways we act to bring our vision to life. The update process also ensures we’re incorporating the most up-to-date approaches and information as we evolve over time. Long-time vision observers may notice one particularly significant modification to this edition. Environmental sustainability-related actions were sprinkled throughout the original 2020 Vision. However, by 2015, community interest in sustainability had grown significantly and a Sustainability Task Force was formed to develop a comprehensive Community Environmental Sustainability Plan (ESP).

  • 4,500 Ideas Will Help Shape Hillsboro's Future
    CITY VIEWS NEWS & EVENTS FOR THE CITY OF HILLSBORO September/October 2014 4,500 Ideas Will Help Shape Hillsboro’s Future A yearlong campaign to encourage the community to suggest ideas for Hill- sboro’s future has paid off. More than 4,300 residents, employees, parents and students took time to contribute approximately 4,500 ideas that will help launch the new Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan, and build on the success of the award-winning 2020 Vision and Action Plan. The Top 5 ideas submitted for the Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan: 1. A great school system through investment and targeted improvements (260 suggestions) 2. A more walkable city with extended sidewalks and trail networks (258) 3. Expanded family recreational activities and community events (258) 4. Less traffic through planning, road capacity (255) 5. A water park, major attraction and/or tourist destination (239) What’s next? As the approximately 4,500 ideas and comments are sorted into unique categories, community members will form “theme teams” which will be assigned one of the idea categories. Each theme team will be responsible for reviewing its assigned category’s ideas and developing initiatives to bring those ideas to life over the next 15 to 20 years. continued on page 2 MAYOR’S MESSAGE How the SIP & Gain Share Help Our Community $100 billion. Wow! No matter how many times I see it, the prospect of a $100 billion investment in our community remains staggering. The signing of the 2014 Strategic Investment Program (SIP) agreement between the City of Hillsboro, Washington County, and Intel was historic for our region because it gives us the certainty that our largest employer, Intel, will keep Hillsboro as its international center for research and manufacturing for decades to come – helping us to create and retain jobs, and remain the centerpiece of the high-tech cluster we call the Silicon Forest.

  • 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.
