October 6, 2025 - Corvallis City Manager Mark Shepard received the Herman Kehrli Award from the League of Oregon Cities at the organization's 100th annual conference in Portland over the weekend. The prestigious award is given to one (1) city employee in Oregon each year who has made exceptional contributions to local government and produced lasting benefits for their community.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Park’s connection to the natural world reminds us that we are all born equal and free from negative social constructs. Like its namesake, this groundbreaking park design recognizes, celebrates, and supports the power of individual and collective activism in creating social change.
Join us for a joint open house with Benton County to review and share feedback on proposed high-priority safety projects and strategies to reduce serious and fatal crashes in Corvallis as part of the City's Transportation Safety Action Plan (TSAP).
