Strategic Plan

The 2022-2027 Strategic Plan was developed through a community-driven process that included public meetings, community surveys, market analysis, and workshops with City Council and staff leadership. Residents helped identify the issues and opportunities most important to Hillsboro's future, including growth, infrastructure, communication, beautification, economic development, and quality of life. Those community priorities became the foundation for the City's eight strategic goals and continue to guide decision-making, budgeting, and long-range planning today.
