The Council will hold a special work session to continue its Advisory Board review discussion. 

First Buffered Bike Lane Installed on NW Spruce Avenue

The City of Corvallis Public Works Department has installed a buffered bicycle lane along a stretch of NW Spruce Avenue near the intersection with NW 9th Street.

The City’s newly adopted Transportation System Plan calls for buffered bike lanes to gradually replace existing bike lanes throughout Corvallis where appropriate and space allows. City officials say the installation on Spruce Avenue is the first of a number of similar projects outlined in the Transportation Systems Plan.

Corvallis Police Alert Notifications

Corvallis Police Alert is the notification system used by the Corvallis Police Department (CPD) to share information about road closures, detours, traffic impacts, law enforcement advisories, and other public safety messages. Corvallis Police Alert allows anyone in the Corvallis community to register to receive alerts from CPD via text SMS, email, or telephone call.

Panel Discussion on Rent Burden in Corvallis

Why is Corvallis among the highest rent burdened communities in Oregon? Households that spend more than 50% of their total income on rent are considered to have "severe rent burden". Approximately 37% of Corvallis households carry severe rent burden. The Oregon State Legislature passed HB4006 requiring cities with greater than 25% of severely rent burdened households to hold a public meeting on this topic.
