Inside Hermiston Newsletter

July 2025
We Hear You. Tell Us More!
Last week we held our fourth City Chat to give Hermiston residents the opportunity to ask questions, bring ideas, share concerns, and enjoy a coffee, tea or frozen yogurt with city leaders.
About 25 residents participated in the quarterly Chats, and we have greatly enjoyed these conversations throughout the year. We planned each Chat at a different local business and at a different time to accommodate as many schedules as possible.
Now that we’ve completed a year of Chats, we’re reflecting on their value and how to continue making opportunities like these available. We believe the community grows stronger when take the time to talk about our vision for the future and how we can get there. (We’d love to hear your ideas.)
I want to thank those who attended over the past year, including the city councilors and mayor who made time to be available for their community. It opened some very productive dialogue that I look forward to seeing continue.
— Byron Smith, Hermiston City Manager
