Hello Monroe Avenue Corridor Study Interested Parties and Stakeholders,
City and OSU staff will be meeting with the City Council on April 6, 2026, to request that they initiate a Comprehensive Plan Amendment (CPA) to adopt a Monroe Avenue Corridor Plan into the City’s Transportation System Plan (TSP). The CPA process will include a public hearing in front of the Planning Commission who will review the proposal and make a recommendation to City Council to approve or deny the CPA request. The City Council will consider the Planning Commission’s recommendation and will make the final decision to adopt the plan or not. Both the Planning Commission and City Council meetings are public hearings with opportunities for proponents and opponents of the plan to provide public written or oral testimony.
At the April 6 Council Meeting, Kittelson and Associates, the City’s and OSU’s consultant on this project, will brief the Council on the recommended strategy for improving Monroe prior to the Council deciding whether or not to direct staff to initiate the CPA process. This is not a public hearing and so public testimony will not be taken as part of this agenda item. However, written or oral comments may be provided during the Community Comments portion of the Council Meeting.
To participate in community comments: This is an opportunity for the community to provide input to the City Council on subjects not related to a public hearing before the Council. Each speaker is limited to three minutes unless otherwise granted by the Mayor. Written testimony is highly encouraged. The deadline to register for oral testimony and to submit written comments is 12:00 pm the day of the meeting and can be done online (www.corvallisoregon.gov/publicinput), via mail (ATTN: City Recorder, P.O. Box 1083, Corvallis, OR 97333-1083), or by phone (541-766-6901 ext. 3).
City Council Meetings begin at 6:00 PM and are held in the Downtown Fire Station at 400 NW Harrison Boulevard.
