Since taking office, Mayor Maughan has focused on strengthening the city’s foundation through sustainable infrastructure development and expanded housing opportunities. His first term has been defined by a hands-on approach to municipal governance, from navigating complex charter improvements to celebrating the local milestones that make Corvallis unique.

“It has been the honor of a lifetime to serve as your Mayor,” said Maughan. “Together, we have made significant strides in addressing our city’s most pressing challenges, particularly in housing and local infrastructure. But there is more work to be done. I am running for re-election to ensure we continue this momentum and build a Corvallis that is inclusive, resilient, and thriving for every resident.”

The Mayor’s platform for the upcoming term will prioritize:

• Housing Stability: Continuing to streamline city-partnered housing initiatives to ensure diverse and affordable options for everyone.
• Infrastructure Investment: Seeing through the completion of critical city projects to support long-term growth.
• Local Economic Growth: Supporting local business, fostering an environment where entrepreneurs can succeed and continuing our work in revitalizing our downtown.

Mayor Maughan’s tenure has been defined by active community engagement, from hosting public forums to representing Corvallis in regional policy cohorts. As a resident who deeply values the Willamette Valley’s natural beauty and vibrant culture, his vision remains rooted in preserving our city’s character while thoughtfully preparing for the future.
