Lane County is updating its three-year strategic plan for 2025–2027. This spring, insights gathered through surveys and focus groups with Lane County employees and the community were used to create a preliminary draft of the new strategic plan.
Now, community members are invited to help refine and enhance the draft plan before it is presented to the Board of County Commissioners for adoption. There are three opportunities to help this month:
- Virtual Open House: Monday, May 12, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. No registration required; join using the link at www.LaneCountyOr.gov/StrategicPlan.
- In-person Open House: Wednesday, May 14, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in Harris Hall (125 East 8th Avenue, Eugene)
- Online Survey: Open May 12–25 and available at www.LaneCountyOR.gov/StrategicPlan. Responses are anonymous.
Your feedback will directly influence Lane County’s strategic priorities, ensuring they align with the needs and aspirations of our residents.
The Strategic Plan was last updated in 2022 and focuses on four priority areas:
- Safe, Healthy County
- Vibrant Communities
- Robust Infrastructure
- Our People & Organizational Health
Examples of successful initiatives under the most recent Strategic Plan include renewal of the 5-year public safety levy; investment in new Permanent Supportive Housing projects through partnership with Homes for Good; progress toward the Lane Stabilization Center to increase behavioral health resources in our local community; and passing the levy to support investment in Lane County’s parks.
