Dunes City residents are invited to participate in the discussion. The work ses- sion will be held at Dunes City Hall beginning at 5 p.m. Dunes City staff has seen an increase in the number of complaints from resi- dents about intrusive night- time lights. Dunes City Council has authorized the Planning Commission to explore New landslide prep guide available from DOGAMI, DLCD The Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) and the Oregon Department of Geology and Miner- al Industries (DOGAMI) have released Preparing for Landslide Hazards: A Land Use Guide for Ore- gon Communities and its accompanying quick refer- ence handout. In response to communi- ty conversations through- out Oregon, DLCD and DOGAMI jointly pur- sued and obtained grant funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The Land Use Guide responds to fre- quently asked community questions related to in- creasing local resilience to landslide hazards through land use options and strat- egies. Many of these ques- tions come from commu- nities with new DOGAMI lidar-based landslide maps. DOGAMI has used lidar to produce detailed land- slide inventories, shallow landslide susceptibility maps, and deep landslide susceptibility maps for many communities in Or- egon. With this new informa- tion, communities should to revise local codes, plans, and policies to most effec- tively use the lidar-based landslide inventory and maps. The goal of the Land Use Guide is to address the in- formation gaps faced by communities with new li- dar-based landslide maps. The Land Use Guide pro- vides: • Explanations of the general types of landslide hazards. (Chapter 2) • Results of a limited re- view of landslide regula- tions. (Chapters 4, 5, and 8) • Key issues in imple- menting landslide hazard risk reduction. (Chapters 4 and 5) • Discussions of com- prehensive plan and im- plementation (e.g. zoning codes, building codes, and so forth) issues. • Elements of a strong comprehensive plan related to landslide hazards, exam- ples of comprehensive plan provisions from Oregon communities, and a model framework for comprehen- sive plan revisions. (Chap- ters 3 and 5) • Elements of a strong landslide hazard ordinance, example code provisions from Oregon communities, and a model framework for a landslide hazard ordi- nance. (Chapters 4 and 5) • Key ways to reduce a community’s risk from landslide hazards. (Chapter 4) The Land Use Guide and accompanying quick refer- ence handout are located on both DLCD’s and DOG- AMI’s websites. regulations for outdoor lighting similar to those in place in other small cities.
