Welcome to the new Summer Reading Program! 

We are happy to continue our Summer Reading program for kids and teens. 

To stay safe and have fun this summer we will be giving away new books and bags with activity ideas and craft supplies all summer long. 

Take a bag and you are signed up! That’s it!

Summer Reading bags will be available to pick up at your local library starting June 1, 2020, or when the library reopens. Call or check our websites for updated days and hours. 

Also look for us at your local food banks.

Due to COVID 19, the City of Warrenton, in cooperation with the volunteers who organize and manage the annual Old-Fashioned 4th of July Celebration, has made the extremely difficult decision to cancel this year’s event.  This event has been an important and integral part of this community for decades, and we are disappointed to have had to make this decision.  On a brighter note – Look for more information over the next several months on a planned end of pandemic celebration!  

Public meetings will be conducted in the Commission Chambers unless otherwise noted. Public meetings are also audio and video live streamed. To find zoom information for a specific meeting, click the link below.

To maintain social distancing, we will have very limited seating at the May 12, 2020 City Commission meeting. To allow public access and participation, we will live broadcast the meeting. We are currently working out the details, and instructions on how to access the live broadcast will be posted on this page on Monday, May 11.

Due to public health concerns, the City has made the decision to postpone the annual Spring Clean-up until a later date.

DO NOT place your ballots in the Warrenton Utility Payment Drop Box - this is not a valid ballot drop off site.To make sure your vote is counted, mail in your ballot or drop in the ballot box in Astoria or Seaside - not Warrenton City Hall.  For questions, please visit the county website at https://www.co.clatsop.or.us/clerk/page/ballot-drop-site-locations​ or contact the Clatsop County Clerk and Elections office.  

Warrenton, OR – The Warrenton Police Department is launching a new Online Reporting Form where certain incidents and crimes can be started online and later completed by an officer. The new online form fits well with all of the current social distancing measures and alternative reporting methods being used around the State and Nation. But this reporting method is something the WPD has been wanting to do for some time now.
