The City Council Steering Committee for Infrastructure Bond Engagement was initially created to provide guidance on developing the ballot measure referred to voters in November 2022 for approval, work on community engagement for the projects part of the bond package, and receive public testimony.

Voters approved the Salem Safety and Livability Bond, so the Committee will shift focus on project updates from staff including the sale of the bonds, costs and timing of projects and other general bond matters.
