Pendleton City Council Recommendations

Ballots are arriving, and every vote matters. We’ve had a number of people ask where we stand.

We are grateful to all of the candidates who have stepped forward to run and serve our community.

After attending the candidate forum, speaking directly with candidates, and reviewing priorities, Neighbors for a Better Pendleton is sharing the candidates we believe will best move our community forward.

Our focus is simple:
Livability. Public safety. Addressing homelessness.

We believe these issues require greater urgency, accountability, and action. We support candidates who will take a proactive approach, stay engaged, and work toward solutions that improve quality of life in Pendleton.

We also reached out to all candidates to offer an opportunity to meet with our group and share their perspectives. We appreciate those who took the time to connect with us.

Our recommended candidates:

Ive Rixe for Ward 1
Cody Jones for Ward 2 (4-year term)
Joseph Hull for Ward 2 (2-year term)
Kristi Jenness for Ward 3
Debbie Kishpaugh for At Large

We’re sharing these recommendations as a resource to help inform voters as ballots arrive. They reflect our perspectives, and we respect each voter’s decision.

Take the time to learn about the candidates, vote, and be part of shaping Pendleton’s future.
