Starting in early May, our East Main Street sidewalk replacement project will continue- this time on the South side of the street. Work will take place between 1st and 3rd Streets. This program is in conjunction with Willamette Workforce Partnership program where youth are employed and doing a large portion of the work to learn skills and gain experience.
Please contact the main office with any questions. We appreciate your patience and cooperation as our sidewalks get a face lift!
Attention Wennerberg Park visitors!
For the safety of our park users in Wennerberg Park, we have created a one-way traffic pattern around the park. Vehicles will now go right only around the park. Do not Enter and One Way signage has been posted at park entrances.
As a reminder, our Park Rules for all parks is available on our website. Thank you in advance for observing this new traffic pattern and our Park Rules.
Our Pollinator Garden on 1st Street received a bee sculpture from one very generous donator. Thank you for your kind gesture- the garden is a brighter spot because of you!
Thank you! 🐝
