Dunes City to discuss outdoor lighting regulations
Dunes City’s Planning
Commission will hold a
special work session on
Monday, Oct. 28, to discuss
outdoor lighting and po-
tential regulations.
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.
