Gis developer Jobs in Eugene, OR

ABOUT US

Founded in 1945, the Lane Council of Governments (LCOG) is one of the oldest councils of governments, enhancing public services in Lane County and beyond. Governed by a Board of Directors, LCOG partners with local governments and special districts in GIS Planning, Personnel Management, Transportation, and Senior and Disability Services. Located in Eugene, LCOG benefits from the city's vibrant university, nightlife, and recreational opportunities.

The Local Government Personnel Institute (LGPI), established in 1971 by the League of Oregon Cities (LOC) and the Association of Oregon Counties (AOC), provided Human Resources and Labor Relations assistance across Oregon. LGPI's services have since transitioned to LCOG, now operating as Local Government Personnel Services (LGPS).

Under LCOG's umbrella, LGPS continues LGPI's mission, offering essential HR and Labor Relations support to local governments statewide and ensuring these services remain accessible, effective, and responsive to the needs of Oregon's public agencies.
