Good morning, Corvallis.

The Philomath Rotary Club will hold its annual leadership transition meeting at Peace Lutheran Church (2540 Applegate St) on Tuesday, June 30, where outgoing president Fred Shaub will outline the club’s goals and pass the gavel to incoming president Robert Hulshof-Schmidt; lunch is provided and guests should RSVP.

Twenty-six Philomath students earned spots on LBCC’s spring honor roll by maintaining a 3.5 GPA or higher during the term (March to June).

OSU Press named Marty Brown as its fifth director; she brings over 25 years of publishing experience and will build book communities by publishing regional works and peer reviewed scholarship.

Philomath High School Class of 2026 received scholarships and awards after their ceremony at Clemens Field on June 6.

122 graduates (including nine valedictorians) earned honors from local and regional organizations, setting them on paths to college, trade programs or other careers.

Corvallis City Council will consider a proposal from the Climate Action Advisory Board (CAAB) that would require home sellers to provide a standardized energy score when listing properties.

Councilors, mindful of limited staff resources, requested further data on potential outcomes and funding before moving ahead.

Gov. Tina Kotek’s Prosperity Council issued a report that asks the governor to change four tax rules and replace the Climate Protection Program — a move to boost Oregon’s economic growth.

The proposals will be reviewed during the 2027 legislative session as she weighs their revenue impact.
