VISION INTO ACTION:
More than 5,000 people shared their ideas about the future of the community through the Beaverton Community Vision process. The public identified five goals for the city to focus on: Build Community, Create a Vibrant Downtown, Enhance Livability, Improve Mobility, and to Provide High Quality Public Services. To better prepare the City to implement many of the community ideas, Mayor Denny Doyle launched the Civic Plan this year. The Civic Plan will help coordinate existing City efforts, align City resources, and create a framework for implementing many of the community's ideas.
