Livable Hermiston

Livable Hermiston is a community-wide visioning process sponsored by the City of Hermiston and Greater Hermiston Area Chamber of Commerce to identify future community liability assets that will continue to make Hermiston a great place to live. The goal is to set priorities for viable community livability assets to be pursued by the community over the next 10-20 years. Barney & Worth has provided community engagement, SWOT analysis, vision statement creation and an implementation plan. More than 2,200 residents from the greater Hermiston area – including 1,200 high school students – participated in online surveys that determined the priorities: a year-round aquatics/community center and a revitalized downtown.
