Beaverton Honors Groups for Dedication to Beaverton

Two groups have been honored with The City of Beaverton's Visioning Advisory Committee award.

The Beaverton Downtown Association and the Tualatin Hills Park and Recreation District shared the honor, which usually just goes to one group.

"The VAC had a tough time deciding on any one partner to recognize this year," said Jaann Hoisington, VAC chair. "We appreciate all of the contributions our partners make, so having two great partners stand out and champion the community's vision was a good problem to have."

The downtown association was honored for its work downtown and the parks district was honored for its outreach work with diverse populations.

The Beaverton Community Vision is an award-winning citywide project to determine what kind of community Beaverton residents want in the future.
