Are You A Recreational Boater? Marine Board Invites You To Town Hall Meetings In Tillamook, Scappoose, Wilsonville - 11/10/26
The Oregon State Marine Board invites recreational boaters and others interested in the agency’s work to a Town Hall meeting. Four informal, family-friendly meetings are being held in Tillamook, Scappoose, and Wilsonville.
Town Halls are an opportunity for agency staff to meet with local recreational boaters and to learn about area needs. It’s also a chance to gather feedback on the agency’s proposed budget and legislative concepts for the 2027-2029 legislative session. The Town Hall meeting is scheduled in an open format, so people can come and go as their schedules allow.
The goal is to build stronger connections with local boaters, share what the agency does, and explain how boating dollars are used in communities. Staff looks forward to answering questions about boating safety, agency rules, grant funding, boating access, titling and registration, outfitter guides, and any environmental concerns.
The Town Hall meeting times are from 4 pm to 7 pm and in an open format so you can come as your schedule allows.
