It’s hard to believe September is already here

#MessageFromTheMayor

The colors are changing all around us, teachers and students are returning to classes, but we aren’t quite ready to hunker down yet. We’re going to celebrate all things Beaverton with our annual parade on September 10. On October 16, we’ll welcome hundreds (if not thousands) of runners and walkers from across the region to participate in the Beaverton Half Marathon.

While outdoor activities slow down slightly, the work of the city and your elected officials continues at full speed. I am hosting a series of tours for elected officials who represent Beaverton and candidates who will be representing Beaverton in the upcoming legislative session. With the session starting in January, we have been working on our state legislative framework, including bills that Beaverton will support. I’m always interested in hearing from community members about the issues most important to them – so reach out!

Lacey Beaty was elected Mayor of Beaverton in 2020. Prior to serving as Mayor, she served for six years on the Beaverton City Council.
