Eugene is entering a critical moment for its budget, with real decisions ahead that will impact city services, fees, and the overall business climate. This policy forum will break down what’s driving the current budget challenges, where the process stands today, and what comes next.
Join the Eugene Area Chamber of Commerce for a Council Candidate Breakfast Forum featuring candidates running for Eugene City Council in Wards 3, 4, 5, and 6.
As part of the Chamber’s ongoing commitment to fostering informed civic engagement and supporting a strong local economy, this forum provides a valuable opportunity for the business community and broader public to hear directly from candidates seeking to represent the citizens of Eugene. These local, non-partisan races play a critical role in shaping the future of our community—from economic development and workforce readiness to public safety, housing, and the regulatory environment impacting local employers.
The nonpartisan, moderated forum will focus on key issues that matter most to Eugene’s business community, including economic vitality, workforce challenges, and policies that influence business growth and community livability. Attendees will gain insight into each candidate’s perspectives, priorities, and approach to governance, helping inform voters ahead of the upcoming election.
We encourage business leaders, community members, and engaged citizens to attend this important conversation shaping Eugene’s future.
