In 2016, the Corvallis City Council adopted the Corvallis Climate Action Plan (CAP) in which the City set a goal to reduce the community’s greenhouse gas emissions 75% below 1990 levels by 2050. The CAP describes actions for adaptation and mitigation of climate change through a range of municipal and community wide action points. In order to better understand our community’s emissions and progress toward the CAP’s target, the City of Corvallis has completed two Community Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Inventories – one for 2012 and one for 2018.

The latest Sustainability Report is now available, detailing progress on municipal sustainability and climate action initiatives.

City of Corvallis staff and City Council have been working on sustainability efforts for many years, with emphasis on minimizing the operational impacts on the environment. In the 1990s, the focus was on cost-saving aspects of projects that also had resource saving benefits i.e. identifying ways to reduce energy consumption and preserve financial resources.  Sustainability wasn't a fully-understood concept at that time and staff didn't fully appreciate the additional benefits to the global environment from our cost-saving measures.

The Corvallis Transit System (CTS) of today began when City of Corvallis subsidized a private transit company from 1970 through January 1981. Compensation was paid to the private company from a combination of City general fund dollars and state transit funds. The service offered limited routes and operating hours.

Corvallis Transit System (CTS) operates a fleet of 15 buses and 1 Trolley vehicle. 

CTS uses biodiesel for all of our vehicles.

Funding for the Corvallis Transit System (CTS) comes from a number of sources: State grants, Federal grants, Oregon State University (OSU), miscellaneous sources like advertising and donations, and since becoming fareless in February 2011, from the Transit Operations Fee (TOF).
