Willamette Water Supply Program
To broaden the reach of the project and engage ratepayers, information displays were taken out on the road – to farmers markets, community events and high school classrooms. Other local government public information officers were also given briefings so they could be champions of the project as well.

Bend Newport Corridor
A virtual open house was designed to allow people to participate on their own schedule. No additional applications are needed. Opportunities to provide feedback and receive a call from the project team are included on the page. The site is ADA compliant and easy to maneuver from a phone or computer.
