HEPPNER — Morrow County was recently recognized for its transportation equity project, which culminated in the fixed route of the Loop buses earlier this year.
According to a July press release from the county, Oregon’s statewide advisory committee on equitable community engagement, the Community Involvement Advisory Committee, has awarded the Most Outstanding Project — Small Jurisdiction: Achievement in Community Engagement Award to Morrow County and its partners who researched and developed the report, "Rural Transportation Equity in Morrow County."
The Achievement in Community Engagement — or ACE — Award recognizes organizations and individuals who have actively promoted and implemented the values of Oregon's Statewide Planning Goal 1 through an outstanding community engagement strategy. All projects recognized with an ACE Award make innovative use of resources, build partnerships across and throughout the community, and intentionally engage historically marginalized and underserved communities.
