Candidate Statement: Erin Engman AICP

Erin has held a number of professional planning roles, serving as a consultant at a multi-disciplinary engineering firm, a public planner tasked with reviewing development applications, and recently, a long range planner that supports legislative research, analysis, and policy. In the past year, she has contributed to Tualatin’s Climate Action Plan, Transportation Planning System update, and Housing Production Strategy implementation.

I love how nuanced urban planning is. Our communities have such an influence on how an individual might access opportunity, housing, and nutritious food while ideally providing a variety of safe routes to access these needs. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with animals, exploring mountains, and eating pizza.
