Community & Destination Management Planning

People who live in Rockaway Beach have a desire to make the place they call home even better.
The community/destination management planning process captures their ideas about what improvements could be
made that increase livability, safety and community engagement, now and in the future.
The planning process consists of four meetings, each varying from one to three hours long.
Your voice and ideas are welcome.
Please join us in the process and create a “living document” with prioritized projects.
The planning process is facilitated by Tillamook Coast Visitors Association.

All workshops will take place at Rockaway Beach city hall.
