Vision Hillsboro 2020 V I S I O N A N D A C T I O N P L A N R E V I S E D J U L Y 2 0 0 5 Hillsboro 2020 September 1, 2005 On behalf of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Implementation Committee, it is my pleasure to present this update of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan originally adopted by the Hillsboro City Council in May 2000. This new report includes all Action Plan changes made since May 2000 including those revisions which resulted from the fi rst Strategy Review process. In order for the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan to remain a viable and effective guide for shaping our community’s future, it is important to keep the Action Plan “tuned-up.” Nothing is constant but change. Community resources and priorities fl uctuate over time. To keep our community’s vision on track, it is important to adapt to the current environment while keeping our focus on the desired outcome. To this end, the Vision Implementation Committee has three processes in place to allow revisions to the Action Plan. Annually the Committee reviews and, if appropriate, recommends minor modifi cations to the Action Plan. Any new action proposals are also considered on an annual basis. Every fi fth year, a major Strategy Review process is conducted to identify proposed strategy additions and revisions. To help preserve the integrity of the original plan, which was developed with extensive community involvement, this process includes a city-wide citizen outreach effort to solicit and review new proposals for implementing the original Vision Statement. The Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan continues to be a community-based guide for shaping Hillsboro’s future. Citizens have developed it and remain involved in keeping it viable. This report includes the original Vision Statement, which was not changed during the Strategy Review process, and the recently updated Vision Action Plan. In addition, new or revised sections have been added describing the Vision Implementation Committee membership framework and function, and public involvement activities to develop and update the Action Plan. In summary, this report refl ects community priorities for our future with the recognition that as Hillsboro heads toward the year 2020, changing resources and technologies may alter the approach to reach our vision. The Vision Implementation Committee will continue to engage the community in the implementation and updating of the plan. The annual Hillsboro 2020 Town Hall will serve as a primary venue for public comment and the next Strategy Review process will be conducted in 2010. We appreciate and thank all the Hillsboro citizens who have participated in the development and implementation of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan. It is this community spirit and commitment that will help us create the future that is our own.

Over three years in the making, the Vision Statement and Action Plan represent a collaborative and proactive effort on behalf of Hillsboro citizens, businesses and government to shape the growth and development of their community over a 20-year horizon. The Vision is a picture of the community in the year 2020, as seen by citizens from a variety of backgrounds, cultures and interests. The scope of this endeavor is far-reaching and covers six topic areas: • Strengthening a common sense of community • Enhancing all neighborhoods and districts • Preserving the environment • Fostering economic opportunity • Expanding support for and access to arts and cultural activities • Promoting community health and safety The Hillsboro 2020 Vision Statement, which provides the foundation for this community picture of the future, was developed by a citizen Task Force with extensive community input. The Vision Action Plan brings life to this Vision through a broad range of recommended programs and projects. The Hillsboro City Council adopted the original Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan in May 2000. The most recent revisions to the plan were approved by the City Council in July 2005. Hillsboro 20202 VWhat Will the Vision Mean to Hillsboro?If successfully implemented, the Vision will make Hillsboro a city every resident is proud to call home. Our children will attend schools renowned for their educational excellence. Access to expanded arts and cultural offerings will be increased, as will the menu of recreational and social opportunities. People of all ages will feel increasingly safe in their homes, offi ces and schools and have access to high quality, affordable health care. The City’s base of jobs and businesses will be expanded, as will the technical and professional assistance needed to ensure a well-balanced, stable economy. The environment will be seen as an asset to community development – not a roadblock. We will witness an improved fl ow of people, goods, services and information. Hillsboro residents will have ample opportunity to participate in local decisions and contribute to the betterment of their own community. How Will the Community Be Involved? Just as developing the Vision Statement and Action Plan required input from a diverse array of stakeholders, so too will implementation. Volunteer groups, non-profi t organizations, businesses and local government will share responsibility for bringing the Vision to life and ensuring the rewards of this broad-based community investment reach and benefi t all sectors of Hillsboro. These stakeholders and other citizens will play an instrumental role in bringing the Vision to life – through a citizen implementation committee, providing input during Vision update opportunities, participating at annual Vision Town Hall meetings and volunteering for projects and programs which fulfi ll Hillsboro 2020 actions. Periodic news releases and other communications will inform Hillsboro residents and businesses of additional participation opportunities and keep them apprised of progress as the Hillsboro 2020 actions are implemented. What is in This Report? This report includes the Vision Statement and Action Plan, the charge and membership framework for the Vision Implementation Committee, and a summary of the public involvement processes which developed and updated the plan.

Hillsboro 2020 3 Vision StatemeHillsboro 2020 Vision Statement Hillsboro: Hometown for the Future In the year 2020, Hillsboro is our hometown. Within a rapidly changing metropolitan region and global economy, we live in a dynamic community that sustains our quality of life. Here, neighbors, generations and cultures connect. We live and work in balance with nature. Hillsboro is a safe and affordable community, a place our children and their children will be proud to call home. The following Vision Statement provides a broad-brush description of Hillsboro in the year 2020. Based on community input, the Vision Statement consists of two elements. First, Hillsboro: Hometown for the Future, is a one paragraph statement describing the kind of community Hillsboro strives to be by the year 2020. Second, six focus area statements provide detailed language to guide future community planning. Hillsboro 20204 Strengthening and Sustaining Community In the year 2020, Hillsboro is a great place to call home. Hillsboro residents share common values refl ecting the virtues of small-town living. They also enjoy the amenities of a city connected to a large metropolitan area. Families and singles, youth and the elderly belong. Hillsboro welcomes its new residents and helps them become an integral part of the community. Hillsboro is a city of diverse cultures, respected and honored for their differences. Local government nurtures and supports citizen involvement in its decisions and actions. Frequent local events bring people together. Neighborhood businesses, places of worship, schools, and civic organizations provide safe, well-used gathering places where people fi nd identity and make meaningful connections. Enhancing Neighborhoods and Districts In the year 2020, Hillsboro is a dynamic community that maintains its small-town livability. As Hillsboro preserves its agricultural and historical heritage and rich natural resources, it has accommodated new growth while maintaining its sense of place. Hillsboro is a city of homes, not just houses, of neighborhoods, not just developments. The city’s character is shaped by its many neighborhoods and districts, each with a unique atmosphere and various lifestyles. Residents have many choices in meeting their affordable housing, child care and school needs, and have access to a range of small shops and businesses in commercial areas. Neighborhood parks, maintained recreational facilities and abundant natural areas provide opportunities for citizens to experience an array of indoor and outdoor activities. Streets and sewers are well-maintained, and long-term supplies of water and energy are secure. Hillsboro’s vibrant, redeveloped downtown district remains the heart of the community. It is linked to surrounding areas and other community centers by extensive transit alternatives and a comprehensive system of bicycle paths and sidewalks for pedestrian travel. Hillsboro 2020 5 Preserving the Environment In the year 2020, Hillsboro practices good stewardship in balancing the use and protection within and surrounding its natural and environmental resources, including agricultural lands and wildlife habitat, streams and wetlands, trees and woodlands, open spaces and waterways. The greater Hillsboro area features abundant wildlife and healthy agricultural activity, which are protected from unwarranted development. Public educational programs stimulate understanding and support for a positive relationship with the community’s resources and natural surroundings. The area’s air and water resources are clean, and the community has worked to control noise and visual pollution. Wetlands play an essential role in maintaining water quality. Reduced reliance by citizens on the automobile and more use of alternative transportation options help residents breathe easier. Jackson Bottom, long the community’s premier environmental asset, is renowned state-wide as an important wildlife habitat. Creating Economic Opportunity In the year 2020, Hillsboro boasts a diverse and sustainable employment base, with jobs accessible to all community residents. There is a good balance of jobs and available, affordable housing. Industries are environmentally responsible. The community is a model for the use of new communications technologies. Training in advanced technologies is available at businesses, schools and libraries. Hillsboro’s educational system, including such programs as school-to-work, develops a skilled workforce. Hillsboro’s strong economy thrives with the help of an accessible and responsive local government. The City of Hillsboro encourages development of a variety of small and large businesses, provides sound civic planning and zoning, and facilitates public/private partnerships as sources of fi nancial capital. An effi cient and cohesive transportation system moves people to work, and goods and services to market. Hillsboro 20206 A Expanding Educational and Cultural Horizons In the year 2020, Hillsboro provides educational opportunities for all of its residents. This achievement is supported by an educational system linking public and private elementary, middle and high schools with technical training, colleges, and graduate schools. Every child has access to excellent, comprehensive schooling that develops thinking, creative, confi dent, successful and productive citizens. Schools provide children with opportunities for career exploration. Available after-school and continuing education programs encourage lifelong learning. The richness of the community’s cultural fabric also enhances the experience of living in Hillsboro. Programs in the arts, theater and other entertainment enjoy broad-based public and private support. Instruction in art, music and cultural expression is available in local schools. The Hillsboro Public Library provides materials and services to help community residents of all ages and cultural backgrounds meet their educational, professional and recreational needs. Promoting Health and Safety In the year 2020, Hillsboro sustains a high quality of life by actively promoting public health and safety. Residents feel safe in their homes, neighborhoods and public places. Small town neighborliness is reinforced by a commitment to community-based policing, and programs for preventive measures to support fi refi ghting and emergency services. A wide variety of community resources — public, private and non-profi t — serve at-risk populations. Community members have access to affordable health care. Our community hospital serves as the center for health services, support and education. At the same time, partnerships of the public and private sector maintain a coherent, geographically dispersed network that brings health services to the districts and neighborhoods where people need them. Hillsboro works hard to create a barrier- free community for its physically and mentally disabled citizens. Hillsboro 2020 7 Action PlanHillsboro 2020Vision Action Plan The Hillsboro 2020 Vision Action Plan outlines strategies and actions to bring the Vision Statement to life. It was developed through community involvement and is routinely updated to keep it current with changing community resources, opportunities, and long-term needs. As described in the next section, any proposed updates to the Action Plan must have a basis in the Vision Statement and receive an appropriate level of community review. The Vision Action Plan is presented in the following matrix which lists the 48 strategies and 147 actions adopted by the City Council through July 2005. Other revisions may occur after the publication of this report. Current versions of the Vision Action Plan are available from the City of Hillsboro Administration Department. The matrix is organized by the six Vision focus areas. The key elements of the Action Plan include: Strategies: Statements which set a direction and general guidance for implementing one or more elements of the Vision Statement. Each strategy has at least one action supporting it. Actions: Projects, programs, or activities which support implementation of a strategy. Each action has the following components: Action Description: Text describing a project or program intended to help implement the strategy under which it is placed. Lead Partner: A community organization, local government agency, or business that has accepted responsibility for facilitating the implementation of one or more actions. Lead partners are not required to fund their actions, only to champion the implementation effort. Potential Partners: Organizations or general interests, recommended during action development or by a lead partner, for involvement in action implementation. The potential partners list is intended to provide a suggested group of resources for consideration as the lead partner seeks to implement an action. Additional organizations and interests may be added by the lead partner. Timeline: A suggested timeframe for implementation of each action. The timeline is divided into fi ve year time periods. Each action is assigned one of these time periods to initiate project/program planning or implementation. It is possible for a lead partner to initiate, implement, or complete an action prior to the proposed timeline.

Priority/Timeline 5= Implemented  = On-going „= To be implemented I Hillsboro 2020 53 ImplementatioVision ImplementationCo mittee The success of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Action Plan will be determined through its implementation. To this end, a citizen-led Hillsboro 2020 Vision Implementation Committee tracks and facilitates the progress of the Vision Action Plan. The committee is responsible for recommending revisions of the Plan to the Hillsboro City Council as may be required or deemed desirable to optimize effective implementation. The membership of the Implementation Committee will refl ect the broad interests and population of the community. The members will include representatives of the Vision Action Plan’s lead partners with two or more actions and other key community interests. All Vision Implementation Committee meetings are open to the public. Public notice of each meeting is provided through media releases, mailings, and the project Website. A “Steering Committee,” comprised of members of the Implementation Committee, acts as an executive advisory group. The Steering Committee helps identify issues for full committee discussion and makes recommendations for action. The charge, detailed membership structure, and staffi ng arrangements are described in the following pages. Hillsboro 202054 Charge To monitor the progress of the adopted Vision Action Plan, encourage implementation of actions, and recommend minor modifi cations to the plan as necessary. The committee’s activities will include: • A minimum of two committee meetings per year. • An annual progress report to the Hillsboro City Council. • Within the fi rst year: a) Develop a clear understanding of lead partner roles. b) Prepare Action Plan evaluation process and criteria. c) Develop a Memorandum of Understanding between lead partners stating their commitment to the Vision Action Plan and their respective roles. • Host an annual “town hall” meeting for public discussion of the Vision Action Plan. • Maintain two-way communication with lead partners to track and encourage action implementation. • Recommend, if necessary, proposed changes to the Vision Action Plan for City Council consideration. Membership The members of the Vision Implementation Committee are appointed by the City Council. The membership will refl ect the composition of the Hillsboro population with a cross-section of key interests and lead partners. The committee will have a chair, appointed by the City Council, who represents the public-at-large and serves a three-year term. A Vice-Chair will be selected by the Chair to act in his/her absence. Member terms also will be three years with one-third of the terms ending each year. The Chair and members may be re-appointed by the City Council. The membership shall include one representative for each lead partner or interest as designated below. The number of public-at-large positions will vary between four and fi ve (not counting the Chair) to keep an uneven number of members for voting purposes. 1. Public-at-Large (Chair’s position) 2. All lead partners with two or more assigned actions 3. Social Services 4. Environment 5. Faith 6. Public Safety 7. Hillsboro City Council (liaison to committee) 8. Four or fi ve Public-at-Large representatives (depending on the number of members) The Steering Committee membership shall consist of the following Vision Implementation Committee members: 1. Chair 2. Vice-Chair 3. Lead partner with the largest number of assigned actions 4. Lead partner with the second largest number of assigned actions 5. One general interest representative selected by the Chair 6. Two public-at-large representatives selected by the Chair Hillsboro 2020 55 Staff Support Staff support shall be provided by the City of Hillsboro and include the following activities: • communications with committee members; • development of committee agendas (in consultation with the Chair); • coordination with City Council; • meeting facilitation and logistics including Town Hall meeting; • preparing meeting summaries; • media notifi cation; and • production of written reports and other Hillsboro 2020 documents. Vision Action Plan Updates As stated in its charge, the Vision Implementation Committee may recommend Action Plan revisions to the Hillsboro City Council. These proposals may originate with Hillsboro citizens, businesses, organizations, or lead partners. Recommendations from the Committee become effective upon the City Council’s approval. Since the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan was developed based on extensive community input, any substantive language change to an action or strategy has the potential to impact the integrity of the original plan. Therefore, three Action Plan update processes have been established to allow for different types of revisions while maintaining a community connection and foundation: 1. Minor Revisions Annually, the Vision Implementation Committee may recommend non-substantive Action Plan updates to the City Council. Examples of such revisions would include lead partner and potential partner changes or action language modifi cations which do not modify its intent. 2. New/Revised Actions Annually, the Vision Implementation Committee may recommend new or substantially revised actions to the City Council. After consideration and development by the Committee, proposals which support the Vision Statement and an existing strategy, will be provided for public comment at the annual Town Hall. Subsequently, after considering the public input received, the Committee will decide whether to recommend the proposed action to the City Council for approval and incorporation into the Vision Action Plan. 3. New/Revised Strategies Every fi ve years, the Vision Implementation Committee may recommend new or revised strategies to the City Council. Since strategies provide the direction, or backbone, of the Vision Action Plan, extensive and meaningful public participation is necessary to maintain the integrity of this community-based Plan. To this end, any public outreach effort will need to be city- wide and allow multiple venues for citizen involvement in the identifi cation, development, and recommendation of new or revised strategies. The annual opportunity for new or revised actions will be incorporated into the Strategy Review process due to their key role in implementing strategies. Hillsboro 202056 Hillsboro 2020 Awards The Vision Implementation Committee offers two awards annually to recognize an individual and an organization for exceptional service toward promoting achievement of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision and Action Plan.

Hillsboro 2020 57 InvolvementPublic InvolvementSummary The Hillsboro 2020 Vision Statement and Action Plan was developed over a three year period with extensive public input. Over 1500 citizens participated in this community effort through public opinion polls, focus groups, public meetings and workshops, written surveys, Web page responses and other venues. The result is a community-based product which refl ects the values and priorities of Hillsboro citizens. In 2004, as part of the fi rst Strategy Review process, the Vision Implementation Committee initiated a nine-month public outreach effort to engage the community in updating the Vision Action Plan. Over 2000 citizens were engaged through a variety of venues. This extensive citizen participation process helped to ensure the revised Vision Action Plan remained a community-based document. The following two subsections summarize both public involvement processes. Hillsboro 202058 Vision and Action Plan Development (1997–2000) Identifying Issues and Resources The development of the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Statement and Action Plan began in 1997 with the identifi cation of present resources and community perspectives. Citizens and community leaders were asked, through telephone polls and focus groups, what was important to them about Hillsboro present as it plans for Hillsboro tomorrow. Nine focus areas – from the environment, to arts and culture, to public safety, to education -- and a set of community values emerged. The values included: • A strong sense of community • An appealing mix of open spaces and urban areas • Proximity to major recreational and cultural attractions • An effi cient transportation system • Suffi cient parks and recreational opportunities • Compelling social, recreational and retail attractions • A well-integrated community Developing the Vision Statement A citizen Vision Task Force was appointed by the Hillsboro City Council in September 1998 and charged with preparing a recommended Vision Statement. Public participation and opinion was sought during the process through several venues including, a Vision Fair, community workshops and forums, public presentations to over 35 community groups and organizations, newsletters (mailed city-wide), and a Hillsboro 2020 Web page. Public meetings were also held in Spanish, with translated materials to reach Latino residents. In addition, all meetings of the Vision Task Force were broadcast on cable television. In all, hundreds of community residents actively participated in the process, offering nearly 200 ideas on how to bring the vision to life. Based on this extensive public input and their discussion, the Task Force prepared a recommended Vision Statement for City Council consideration. The Statement included six key focus areas for the community’s future: • Strengthening and Sustaining Community (community identity, community activities and citizen relationships) • Enhancing Neighborhoods and Districts(connecting neighbors and businesses to the larger community; parks, transportation, housing) • Creating Economic Opportunity (jobs and the workforce, business development) • Expanding Educational and Cultural Horizons (education and learning, arts, cultural diversity) • Preserving the Environment (natural resources protection and preservation, air and water quality) • Promoting Health and Safety (police, fi re, emergency response services; health and human services) The draft Vision Statement was forwarded to the Hillsboro City Council, which approved it in June 1999. Hillsboro 2020 59 Developing the Action Plan The Task Force reconvened in the fall of 1999 to develop an Action Plan to bring the vision to life. Initially, the Task Force developed strategies to be pursued through the Action Plan. These strategies were based on vision ideas that emerged from public input obtained in the previous phase of the process. In October 1999, the Task Force joined six Vision Action Teams, organized by the focus areas of the Vision Statement. Over 80 citizens participated on the teams. The teams were charged with developing the actions to bring the strategies, and the Vision Statement, to life. In addition to the Task Force members, each group included other interested citizens and City staff. By January 2000, the teams developed recommended actions to implement the strategies. More than 125 actions were identifi ed to bring the Vision to life. For each action, the teams identifi ed a lead entity, potential partners, estimated costs and resources, and a proposed timeline for implementation. Subsequently, the Task Force reviewed the work of the Vision Action Teams. The teams’ proposals were provided to the public in another edition of the Hillsboro 2020 newsletter and feedback was solicited. The Task Force refi ned and consolidated the list of proposals to 46 strategies and 114 actions, and set priorities. In the spring of 2000, the Task Force reviewed and approved the fi rst edition of this report, including recommended timelines for executing the strategies and actions. It also sought the commitment of the lead partners to take responsibility for implementing the Action Plan once it was approved by the City Council. Hillsboro 202060 Strategy Review (2004-2005) The Vision Implementation Committee conducted the fi rst Strategy Review, scheduled every fi ve years until 2020, during a nine-month period beginning in September 2004. As part of this effort, an extensive public involvement process was conducted to ensure community input remained an integral part of the plan. The Strategy Review process was intended to ensure the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Action Plan continued to refl ect contemporary community values and priorities. Public input was solicited for new or revised strategies and actions only. Possible revisions to the Vision Statement were not considered. There were three phases of the strategy review effort: 1. Identifi cation of community ideas 2. Review, analysis, and proposal development 3. Proposal review Community Ideas Between September and December 2004, new ideas were sought to implement the Hillsboro 2020 Vision. This community input was received through a variety of events and activities including: • A questionnaire sent to all lead partners • Two public forums • A publication, including a survey, inserted in the Hillsboro City Views newsletter and distributed to all Hillsboro residences and businesses • An online survey on the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Website • Numerous Speakers Bureau engagements with community groups Through these outreach efforts, more than 400 suggestions were received. These suggestions were sorted and organized for review by six citizen focus area Work Groups. Proposal Development In January 2005, six citizen Work Groups were formed representing the Hillsboro 2020 Vision focus areas. Each group consisted of 10 to 12 people including: Vision Implementation Committee members, lead partner representatives, and other community members. All of the Work Groups met together for an orientation, and then met separately two to three times each to complete their reviews. The Work Groups reviewed the community input and analyzed its place in the Vision. They also reviewed the existing Action Plan items. Through this review process, the Work Groups forwarded specifi c strategy and action proposals for consideration by the Vision Implementation Committee for inclusion in the Vision Action Plan. Hillsboro 2020 61 Community Review Beginning in April 2005, the Work Groups’ strategy and action proposals received community review through multiple venues. Opportunities for public input included: • A Hillsboro 2020 Vision Implementation Committee publication inserted in the spring Hillsboro City Views newsletter and distributed to all Hillsboro residences and businesses • An online survey on the Hillsboro 2020 Vision Website • Speakers Bureau engagements • Public input activities at the annual Hillsboro 2020 Vision Town Hall All of the community input was forwarded to the Vision Implementation Committee for consideration as it developed fi nal recommendations for the Hillsboro City Council.
