ODFW release - SALEM, Ore.— ODFW will host an open house on Tuesday, April 7 from 2-4 pm to discuss development of its 2027-29 Agency Request Budget. The meeting will be hosted in ODFW's headquarters classroom (4034 Fairview Industrial Drive, SE, Salem) and will be streamed online via YouTube.  In Oregon, state agency budgets are developed every two years. The two-year budget period begins on July 1 of odd-numbered years and concludes on June 30 of the next odd-numbered year. State agencies submit their budget requests to the Governor who creates a Recommended Budget for consideration by the Oregon legislature.  The open house will include an overview of ODFW's budget, license expenditures, process and timelines for budget development, and information on how the agency is building out the next biennium's budget.  Anyone interested in hearing more about ODFW's 2027-29 budget development efforts is invited to attend.  Virtual participants can submit questions and comments through this form. Submissions will be monitored and questions responded to as time allows during the meeting.
