Medford, OR – According to the city officials, this event was reportedly hosted by Ward 1 Councilors Jessica Ayers and Sarah Spansail.

Nearly 150 community members attended the event, and the panel answered 75-100 questions from the audience during the Q&A session.

The panel consisted of Councilor Jessica Ayers, Councilor Sarah Spansail, Mayor Randy Sparacino, City Manager Brian Sjothun, Police Chief Justin Ivens, Fire Chief Eric Thompson and City Attorney Eric Mitton.

During the meeting, Councilor Spansail highlighted the council’s commitment to supporting housing development projects such as Prescott Gardens, Orchard Meadows, Summit Gardens and Providence Medford.

Last fall, the council approved a resolution that leveraged $107.5 million to support these projects, which will produce over 300 housing units that will serve a diverse population.
