Springfield, OR – The City of Springfield continues its summer outreach to engage community members in understanding and discussing the work of the Fiscal Stability Task Force. Mayor Sean VanGordon will be participating in a series of upcoming public events to answer questions and listen to feedback as the City works to address long-term budget challenges.
“This Task Force brought together community voices to help us better understand our financial reality and to offer recommendations to guide our next steps,” said Mayor VanGordon. “Now we’re asking the broader community to be part of the conversation. We need your feedback, your questions, and your ideas as we move forward together.”
