Stuart Rodgers
Originally from Chula Vista, CA, Stuart moved to the small town of Jefferson, OR where he worked on a potato farm during summer vacations. This experience helped him learn Spanish and prepare for a 2 year service abroad in Chile. Upon returning from South America, he focused on economics at Chemeketa Community College, transferred to Brigham Young University for a degree in political science, and then returned home to Oregon and obtained a Master of Public Administration degree from Portland State University.
Stuart got his start in local government through a Management Internship at the south coast city of Brookings, Oregon, and has completed economic development projects for the cities of Payson, Utah and Albany, Oregon.
Through a variety of small business marketing ventures, his own buy-sell-trade operation, and work for a Salem-based mortuary transport service, Stuart relates well to business owners and the challenges they face. Most recently, he managed the Woodburn Area Chamber of Commerce, helping grow the business association during a period of rebuilding.
Outside of work, Stuart enjoys water sports and road trip adventures across Oregon and loves to spend time with family based in the Willamette Valley.
Feel free to stop on by City Hall to introduce yourself or find him out and about connecting with Aurora residents and businesses.
