Welcome to the Carlton Community Update page
Updated December 19, 2024
The contractor working on the Grant Street subdivision will pick up work back up in late December and early January. They will be working on several items including the Wennerberg Park Access Detour. The detour will have park users accessing Washington street from an extension of Cunningham Street to gain access to the Park. Grant Street will be closed for infrastructure upgrades. This detour is expected to last about 6 months. Pending all City staff approved inspections, the detour will open around January 6th, 2025. Barricades and signage will be in place at the location as well notifying Park users.
Please be advised- intermittently during the winter months, Wennerberg Park and the rock loop around it will close due to high water. Please do not access the park when the Park Closure signs are posted. It is for the safety of both people and pets. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
Come to the Carlton Civic Center and meet your local government officials and chat about whatever's on your mind at Carlton's 1st Community Corner. We will meet on January 3rd, 2025, from 2pm-4pm.
Bring your questions and concerns for open, honest, one-on-one conversations with anyone who wants to stop by. Bring your questions about public services and learn more about how to volunteer and get involved! Can't make it? Send your questions ahead of time to City Manager Shannon Beaucaire at sbeaucaire [at] ci.carlton.or.us (sbeaucaire[at]ci[dot]carlton[dot]or[dot]us). Interested in what was discussed, but unable to attend? We will post every question and answer to our website and send them out to the entire community via our city email to those subscribed to our Community Updates shortly after the event.
On December 3rd, 2024, the project team was in Carlton to hold the first of two (2) in-person Open House events at the Carlton City Hall. If you were not able to attend, there is still time to share your input! An online presentation is available to learn more, and a survey to share your thoughts. Please use this link to access both before it closes on January 3rd: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/23e6ea4a87f442dba14c22452e411898
