Oregon Mayors Association (OMA)
The Oregon Mayors Association (OMA), established in 1972, is a voluntary association of persons who hold the office of mayor in Oregon. The OMA Constitution and By-Laws specify several purposes for the association: to increase the knowledge and ability of persons serving as mayor; to promote the exchange of information and ideas among mayors; to provide opportunities for meeting and discussion of the special functions of the office of mayor; to provide collective efforts for influencing state programs and legislation; and to further the program and objectives of the League of Oregon Cities.
Although staff support is provided by the League of Oregon Cities, the leadership of the OMA is vested in a Board of eight directors which include a President, President-Elect, Secretary-Treasurer, and five members at-large. The Directors serve a one-year term of office.
The OMA holds an annual business meeting and sponsors a special workshop for mayors at the League of Oregon Cities' Annual Conference, as well as offers a two-day annual summer conference and business meeting. A "Mayors Day at the Capitol" is traditionally held during each legislative session, wherein mayors from across the state gather in Salem to more effectively communicate cities' concerns through a unified voice. OMA publishes a quarterly newsletter for its members.
