City Of Tualatin To Launch A Community Program For Climate Action (Photo)
- 01/05/26
TUALATIN, OR — The City of Tualatin is excited to announce a new program, "Pennies for Climate Action.” In this program, community members will have the option to pay $0.99 via their utility bill every month to help fund the implementation of our Community Climate Action Plan. The Tualatin Community Climate Action Plan is a roadmap of actions we can take as a community to achieve our citywide goal of net zero emissions by 2050. This new program will serve as one of several dedicated funding sources for achieving this goal and implementing the plan.
Adopted in May 2024, the Community Climate Action Plan provides a comprehensive framework to reduce climate pollution and prepare the Tualatin community for the local impacts of climate change that we have already begun to experience, like extreme heat and more intense winter storms. “This plan provides a road map for how the community can address the current and future impacts of climate change in Tualatin,” said Tualatin Mayor Frank Bubenik. “The actions included in the plan will help ensure that our community is a healthy, resilient, and thriving place to live now and for generations to come.”
Pennies for Climate Action will launch with the January 2026 utility bill. If you do not wish to participate in this program, you can opt out on the City’s website.

Tualatin, OR – The City of Tualatin is proud to announce that work is continuing on the six acres that will make up the new Riverfront Park off Boones Ferry Road, located across from the Tualatin Public Library and downtown Tualatin. The currently unnamed Riverfront Park is being imagined as a peaceful nature escape that will provide easy access to the Tualatin River.
The public may notice that City staff have begun clearing invasive species and restoring a portion of Hedges Creek. In addition, the three houses currently on the new park land are scheduled to be removed within the next few weeks. The property was sold to the City by Maggie Robb, who resided there for 50 years.
Looking ahead, staff are in the process of bringing in consultants to assist with the next phase of Riverfront Park, with plans to begin community engagement in summer 2026. The City worked with the University of Oregon’s SCYP Timber Tectonics program in the fall of 2025 to begin visualizing the park.
For more information about the City of Tualatin’s parks and trails, visit tualatinoregon.gov/recreation. This park is made possible by the Parks and Trails Bond passed by voters in 2022.
