City Declares Local Emergency Amid COVID-19 Pandemic

City Manager Mark Shepard declared a local emergency for the City of Corvallis as the city organization works to mitigate service disruptions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The announcement came at 5 p.m. Friday, March 13.

Here’s Why The Census Matters to Corvallis

Potholes, bus stops, and housing grants – these aren’t the things we normally associate with the U.S. Census, but that’s what is at stake in Corvallis as the 2020 Census approaches.

The Census happens once every 10 years and provides an opportunity to count every person residing in the United States. This includes people of all ages, races, ethnic groups, citizens and noncitizens. Census materials will be mailed out later this month, and responses will be collected starting in April.

Report a Hate and Bias Incident

A hate and bias incident is any hostile expression that may be motivated by another person’s race, color, disability, religion, national origin, sexual orientation or gender identity. The act does not need to be a federal, state or local crime.
