Click any of the thumbnails below to explore a slideshow highlighting the results of the 2021 space needs study, and the long-term plans to invest in City facilities.

As this work moves forward, it’s important to remember that the fundamental lack of attention to the space requirements for City operations means that reinvesting in civic buildings is not a matter of ‘if’ or ‘when’, but of ‘what’ and ‘how’.

In 2021, the City assessed the space needs at 17 of its locations.
In addition to a lack of space, most City facilities rated poorly on work space condition, quality, and function.
Substantial shortcomings in the facilities create barriers to efficient operations for delivering services to the community.
The Corvallis Citywide Facility Strategy laid out 11 projects.
These complex civic facility projects can take years to move through all the phases.
The Civic Campus is one of the priority projects that is moving forward.
The Parks Maintenance facility is one of the priority projects that is movingo forward.
Reinvesting in civic buildings is not a matter of ‘if’ or ‘when’, but of ‘what’ and ‘how’.
