Hood Lions Club exceeded its fund-raising goal for the purchase of a heart m achine fo r the Woodland Eire Department.

The report summarized citizen comments and suggestions on the involvement process from a Ja nu ary public hearing. C iting com plaints th a t county “ experts” frequently contradict each other, the CIAC recommended that the Clackamas County Depart ment of E n viro nm e nta l Services and Planning Department evaluate staff operations. “ Improvements may re q uire more s ta ff e d u c a tio n , in fo r m a tio n coordination, or training for increased s e n s itiv ity to citizen viewpoints.” The CIAC also recom mended th a t the county “ develop a handbook to e xplain procedures and sources of information, to be form ally approved by the Board of County Com missioners as an official guide to county procedures and policies.” Some county residents complained at recent land- use hearings that county staff have ignored plans or re c o m m e n d a tio n s fro m community organizations. As one Viola resident a n g rily told the county planning com m ission last week, “ ‘The only local in volvem ent has been our coming here to testify. Your efforts have been extreme not to ihvolve us.” One Estacada man related to the commission a con versation he had with a m em ber of the county planning staff when he was a pplying fo r a building permit. “ He asked me, ‘You want to make a profit on your land?’ “ I said, ‘I ’d like to.’ “ He said, ‘T h a t’s im m oral.’ “ I told him, ‘Forget about it.’ Otherwise, one of us would have ended up on the floor.” The CIAC noted th at citizens expressed a lack of confidence in staff expertise at the January hearing. “ No m atter how effective the citizens are, the county has to be communicating for the citizens opinion to mean a n y th in g ,” said Ardis Stevenson, citizen in volvement coordinator. The county has had a formal citizen involvement program since 1976, Stevenson said. While so far it has been restricted to land- use planning, Stevenson hopes it w ill soon be extended to other county services, such as transportation and social services. "The citizens are not thinking only in terms of land use,” she said. “ They don’t separate out road problems from land planning.” Other CIAC recom mendations: — Speedier notification o£ residents, purchasers and mortgage holders regarding the status of land-use ap plications. — In fo rm in g citizen planning organizations of final actions on land-use applications. — Developing a system for notifying interested citizens of the rationals for land-use decisions. The CIAC also recom mended that the planning department assume prim ary responsibility for insuring that citizens are aware of m a jo r land-use proposals that directly affect them. was Dick Harrison, a Sandy Union High School counselor who has tossed his hat into the ring for the mayor's election next fall Mayor Haneberg pointed out that it was traditional that an adviser to the commission be appointed to serve on the commission and appointed Harrison to serve as an adviser Harrison w ill be running against D uff, Councilm an Bruce Cook and Sandy Police Sgt Dennis Wolf in his bid for mayor. Sandy businessman Joe Cejka Monday night was appointed by the Sandy City Council to f i l l the c ity planning commission seat vacant after the retirement of Bette Herzog Mrs Herzog, who owns T J’s Fireside Dining and Lounge along w ith her husband, Bill, was presented with a special achievement award for her services to the city by Sandy Mayor Melvin Haneberg C ejka ’s approval was nearly unanimous, w ith Councilm an James D uff abstaining from the vote D u ff said he was ab staining for “ reasons I ’ve listed before.” In past discussions of planning commission appointments, Duff has expressed concern that the planning com m ission is becoming weighted on the side of the business community.
