Inside Hermiston Newsletter

SEPTEMBER 2025
Got a Question? Ask Hermiston.
This month, I’m excited to share a new way for Hermiston residents to connect with their community. On Sept. 1 we introduced Ask Hermiston, a simple online tool embedded in the City's website that makes it easier than ever to get direct answers to your questions.
Whether through a quick video from our staff or an instant AI response built on previous answers and information available on the City website, this tool is all about transparency, accuracy, and accessibility.
Our goal is to strengthen the connection between residents and City Hall by providing clear, reliable information. I know it’s not always easy to find the right answer, but with Ask Hermiston, we’ll work together to make sure you can.
Take a look at repd.us/Hermiston and please add your questions! I look forward to seeing how this new option helps us continue building a stronger, more connected community.
- Byron Smith, Hermiston City Manager
