between $3,000 and $4,000
more than planned in a
campaign launched March 4

County’s citizen involvement evaluated
by John Dean
staff reporter
Clackamas County needs
to improve communication
practices for its citizen in
volvement program to work
w ell, says the county’s
C itiz e n
In v o lv e m e n t
A d visory C om m ittee.The
CIAC
published
an
evaluation of the county’s
citizen involvement program
in land use last week. 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.

Mayor Haneberg pointed
out that it was traditional
that an adviser to the
commission be appointed to
serve on the commission and

Harrison w ill be running

Council to f i l l the c ity

of Bette Herzog

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

is
becoming
weighted on the side of the
business community.
Cejka is one of the owners
