At an October 13, 2026 special meeting, the Oregon City Commission considered the Police Department’s FY2026 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG). The department reported an award of $11,484 through the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance and proposed using the grant toward a lighted, changeable-message sign for a code enforcement vehicle that responds to crashes, emergencies, and critical incidents. The purchase would exceed the grant amount by $2,125, to be covered by the city.

The commission approved a motion to apply for the grant; the motion passed unanimously among the commissioners present. No vendor or contract number was identified.
