Communication Plan

Communication

The City of McMinnville recognizes the value of citizen involvement and the wealth of good information and resources our citizens possess. As such, it’s important for the City to ensure our understanding of our citizen’s concerns, ideas and values thus enabling their influence over our decisions.
