Welcome to Byrom CIO
The Byrom Community Involvement Organization (CIO) is one of six residential CIOs located in separate geographical areas of Tualatin.
Byrom CIO includes established neighborhoods and the newly annexed portion of Basalt Creek, Plambeck Gardens, Autumn Sunrise and the Norwood Road Townhomes currently under development.
Our membership is open to all who reside or own property in this area. The Byrom CIO Board supports our community by working with the City of Tualatin and other CIOs to address any issues impacting the livability of our area. Our focus is on community safety, livability, equity and a sense of community.

My wife and I have called Tualatin home since 1995. I'm also a parent of a Tualatin High School graduate. I retired from the United States Navy as a Master Chief Petty Officer, having served over 24 years all over the world. After retiring I worked for two companies in Newberg OR and chose to live here in Tualatin. I've never regretted that decision. Those years have been full of growth and the accompanying challenges that growth brings to a dynamic city.
I've always felt the need to serve and my 24 years in the Navy helped me realize the need was even more evident in our community.
I attend City Council meetings and functions when the subject or agenda was of importance or peaked my interest. I also participate in numerous developers forums where new housing projects were being proposed and discussed with the community. While I saw the need for housing, the projects being placed in front of us were not always ones that would add value or answer the long standing concerns of how to accomplish them and not impact our traffic, schools or property values. With my CIO responsibilities as Land Use Officer I attend Planning Commission Meetings to further my knowledge and provide timely feedback to the neighborhood.
I like to focus on the community needs and especially the concerns for families in today's economy and challenges.

Expanding Community
The Byrom CIO has been working with the city and CIO Leadership to expand CIO boundaries to new developments and neighbors. Byrom CIO leadership voted to expand our boundaries to include Plambeck Gardens Apartments, the Autumn Sunrise Development and the Norwood Road Townhomes Development. We welcome those new residents to Tualatin and the Byrom neighborhood.
Thank you!
Thanks to our wonderful neighbors on Stono Drive! So many in our community have been appreciative of the work that was done to smooth the path on the North side of Norwood Road. Your community appreciates you!!!
Annual Meetings
Byrom CIO hosts its annual meeting in the spring, featuring summaries of past year's efforts, emergency preparedness discussions, updates on city projects, and voting on biannually elected board positions. We are dedicated to fostering a sense of unity and collaboration among residents, businesses, and local government to create a vibrant and inclusive community for all.
For the first 10 years of the CIO program, Byrom CIO had very few changes. Today, significant projects may impact livability. Please contact us to see how you can get involved. To learn more email Tim Neary at byromcio@gmail.com.

Traffic on SW Boones Ferry
Volume of current traffic on SW Boones Ferry far exceeds the capacity. Byrom neighbors are extremely concerned that livability will be destroyed by additional projects feeding traffic on SW Boones Ferry and the potential bridge crossing Tapman Creek/Basalt Creek from SW 124th to SW Greenhill Lane.
Norwood Road Speed Limit to Decrease to 35MPH
Traffic Around Tualatin HS Dangerous
Lack of Infrastructure for Basalt Creek Traffic

Byrom CIO Accomplishments
Crosswalk with Flashing Lights at Tualatin H.S.
Residents from Byrom, Midwest, and Martinazzi Woods CIOs worked together for many years with the City of Tualatin to move this project forward. This recently completed crosswalk at Tualatin H.S. has improved pedestrian safety on a very busy road. Tualatin 2018 transportation safety bond funded the crosswalk. Byrom residents strongly supported the bond measure.
Pedestrian Safety Top Priority
Byrom residents have for many years expressed concerns about pedestrian traffic on SW Boones Ferry, especially children walking to school. Boones Ferry Corridor Sidewalk & Bike Lane project will complete missing segments of bike lanes and sidewalks, & repair sidewalks, pathways, and bike lanes that do not meet current standards along Boones Ferry Road from Warm Springs Street to Norwood Road. The photograph show the newly completed sidewalk on S It is funded by the 2018 Tualatin bond transportation safety measure endorsed by Midwest CIO volunteers.
National Night Out
The Byrom CIO residents have held multiple National Night Out events. It is celebrated on the first Tuesday in August and promotes first responder-community partnerships. Tualatin Police Officers and Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue crews make rounds to greet folks at each of the events.
Citizen Emergency Response Team (CERT)
Byrom CIO supports the Citizen Emergency Response Team (CERT). These volunteers have the training and focus to help neighbors in emergencies, such as power outage, floods and earthquake. Each volunteer can set up a command center, offer search and rescue, provide basic first aid and communicate with City and County emergency response centers through HAM radios. Out of 108 active CERTs, Midwest has 11 members, 7 of which have their HAM radio license.
Tualatin Neighborhood Ready
Byrom residents have hosted multiple neighborhood ready/map your neighborhood preparedness meetings.
