November 29th, 3-7pm, Millennium Plaza will be the location for the 60th annual holiday tree lighting festival.

Activities include photos with Santa, Timberview Farm Reindeer, sweet trees, music, caroling, and over 40 vendors. The lighting of the Millennium Tree will happen at 5:30.

It’s a great way to kick off the season!

Closed sales and pending sales are holding strong with 16 closed sales and 12 pending sales in Lake Oswego last week. This is a reflection of folks being motivated to get into their new home before the holidays. Active listings have dropped off to just 6. One of those sold quickly and appears in this report as a pending sale.

Today we awake in the same great community we fell asleep in. Over our history as a community we’ve consistently demonstrated our ability to come together, lead by example, respectfully engage in civil dialogue and care for one another as neighbors. We’re a community of mixed political beliefs but many shared values, and today, just like every day, our neighbors are counting on us to continuing supporting one another as we make Lake Oswego a community every resident feels safe and at home in, where we enhance the natural environment for future generations, where local businesses can thrive and where our kids receive an incredible education.

I’m grateful to Lake Oswego voters for another term as your mayor. In that role my first priority is to ensure our community is safe and healthy for everyone in it. The impact we all have locally from the love we hold for our City and one another as neighbors transcends any national rhetoric meant to divide and instill fear. As Oswegans we stand united behind ensuring a positive future for our City, in protecting every one of our neighbors and in standing up for what’s right and just. I look forward to walking hand and hand with you all and my colleagues on the City Council as we work toward many more shared accomplishments in the years ahead! Congratulations to Councilors Mboup, Verdick and Rapf on their re-elections and to State Rep. Daniel Nguyen on his! Our community has good people representing it thanks to you all as voters.

Joe Buck, 11/6/24
