Lumber use near record More lumber will be used during 2004 than any time in history because of strong housing markets and an improving economy. That’s the word from Portland-based Western Wood Products Association (WWPA). While demand will fall back moderately during 2005, it still will be a solid year for lumber, according to a WWPA forecast. The trade association estimates that lumber de- mand this year will increase. 4.8 percent to 59.7 billion board feet (bbf). That would shatter the previous record of 57 bbf set during 2003. It would be the sixth time during the past eight years that lumber demand has set a new record. Said WWPA: “The red-hot home con- struction market has fueled (Continued on page 8) IVHS School Menu Sponsored by SISKIYOU COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER 319 Caves Hwy.

(Photos by Dale Sandberg) Tycer West approved despite protests Despite protests, Jose- phine County Commission- ers Jim Riddle and Harold Haugen have for the second time voted approval for the proposed 42.6-acre Tycer West Subdivision in the 3600 block of Caves Hwy. Commissioner Jim Brock was absent from the public hearing held in Grants Pass on Wednesday, Dec. 15; and which lasted slightly more than an hour. Tycer West, planned by LBI Enterprises, of Grants Pass, is to consist of eight lots ranging from 5 to 5 1/2 acres each. The year-ago decision was appealed to the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA) by Steve Doob, Al Devine, Paul Simon and “Sally” Palmer. Subsequently, the pro- ject was returned by LUBA to the county to clear up two errors. They involved con- servation of natural re- sources on resource lands, and a subdivision review item dealing with the exist- ing land-use pattern and related compatibility.

Also protesting the de- velopment was Merlin resi- dent Holger Sommer. He noted that during the past four years, six lots have been added within a half- mile radius of the property. This represents, he indi- cated, over-development for the area. He showed a graph not- ing that at that rate, the com- mission ruling will put ur- banization 30 years ahead of the curve. Project protesters also noted that water runoff since Tycer Junction was built has caused problems, and that they fear an escalation of the problem with Tycer West. Simon said that the ap- pellants likely will pursue another appeal with LUBA. They will have 21 days after findings are released. Simon said he was told that the findings would be made by late last week, but had not received them as of Sunday, Dec. 19. said OED, “payroll employ- ment has risen by almost 600 jobs, or a growth rate of 2.5 percent. “Construction employ- ment last month fell by 40; manufacturing employment dropped by 20 after posting steady gains during much of 2004. Retail trade gained 20 jobs during November. “During 2004, county areas adding jobs were con- struction (+140), manufac- turing (+250), wholesale trade (+70), retail trade (+60); plus financial activi- ties, professional and busi- ness service, health care and social assistance, and local government, which each added 30.” Jackson County’s job- less rate last month was 5.8 percent vs. 5.6 the month before. The Oregon season- ally adjusted rate for No- vember was 7.1 percent. LBMS lists honor roll “Vikings take pride and it shows!” highlights the first quarter Lorna Byrne Middle School Honor Roll.

The development is a permitted use of the land, zoned serpentine; and that seemed to be a major basis for granting approval. A paper prepared by Ted Gerber, of Illinois Val- ley’s Foris Vineyards, re- garding natural resources, was not allowed into testi- mony. Gerber’s paper notes that the project soil is per- fect for raising grapes as it has a gentle, south-facing slope not prone to frost. It further notes that after the first two years, once the roots took hold, a vineyard would not need much water. Simon testified that un- der the county comprehen- sive plan, the “best use” should be addressed for the property. It’s his belief that additional housing is not in the “best use” category for Although employment trends for most of Josephine County’s industries were generally positive during 2004, the jobless rate rose to 7.5 percent during Novem- ber, said Oregon Employ- ment Dept. (OED). November employment for the county was 30,159 vs. 30,160 during October, when the jobless rate was 7.3 percent. The November 2003 unemployment rate also was 7.5 percent when 29,317 persons were em- ployed. The largest decline last month was in the leisure and hospitality category with employment falling by 140. Overall last month, added OED, the county’s total payroll employment fell by 260 jobs with slight reductions in a broad array of industries. “During the past year,” 6:30 7:00 7:30 8:00 8:30 9:00 9:30 10:00 10:30 11:00 11:30 12:00 12:30 1:00 1:30 2:00 2:30 3:00 3:30 4:00 4:30 5:00 5:30 Movie: TTZ ‘‘Dennis the Menace Movie: TTZ ‘‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High’’ Movie: TTZ ‘‘The Out-of-Towners’’ (1999, Movie: ‘‘Beverly Hills Ninja’’ (1997) An ungainly Movie: ‘‘Saving Silverman’’ (2001) Two buddies Movie: TTT ‘‘Austin Powers: The Spy Who Friends ^ F [WTBS] Strikes Again’’ (1998) Don Rickles.
