Each Each January, the Hermiston City Council and staff outline a set of goals to guide city projects and initiatives for the coming year. These goals reflect the City’s 2040 Vision and Action Plan, adopted in 2022 with input from the community and local organizations. The annual goals are organized into four categories that define the kind of community Hermiston strives to be: Growing and Prosperous; Safe and Healthy; Sustainable; and Connected and Engaged.
