The program will provide a look at the expansion from three to five commissioners, the proposed shift to district-based representation, how the district mapping process evolved, and what voters need to know for the May and November elections.
Moderated by Judy Stiegler of Central Oregon Community College, the discussion will feature:
- Jen Patterson, Strategic Initiatives Manager for Deschutes County and staff lead to the Deschutes County Mapping Advisory Committee (DMAC)
- Phil Henderson, former County Commissioner and DMAC member
- Melanie Kebler, Mayor of Bend and DMAC member
Panelists will outline how the mapping process unfolded, what voters can expect in the May primary and November general elections, and how these changes could shape the future direction of county leadership.
With significant races and ballot measures ahead, this forum offers Central Oregonians a clear, nonpartisan overview of the decisions that will define the county’s next chapter.
Forum registrants will be invited to submit questions in advance.
