DMV: What you need to know about Oregon’s new ‘Real ID’
Beginning Oct. 1 of this
year, the Transportation
Security Administration,
(TSA) begins requiring a
new type of identification
to board a commercial air-
craft.
The new ID must be
compliant with something
called the Real ID Act. It’s
designed to keep people saf-
er in the air, but if someone
tries to board an aircraft
using their current Oregon
driver license starting in
October, it won’t work.
That’s because the cur-
rent Oregon driver license
is not Real ID compliant.
Oregon DMV will begin
offering a Real ID option
on July 6, 2020. To fulfill
the demand of nearly 1 mil-
lion Oregonians who will
want the Real ID option,
DMV would have to issue
32 licenses a second every
business day from July to
October.
That’s just not possible.
If someone doesn’t have a
Real ID compliant form of
ID at the airport, TSA will
put them through an alter-
nate identity verification
process that could take an
hour or more, and people
may miss their flight.
There is another option
for Oregonians, which is to
obtain and use a passport
or passport card.
The cost of getting a new
passport card is roughly
equal to that of getting a re-
placement license with the
Real ID option — and peo-
ple can apply now at one
of over 76 acceptance sites
across Oregon.
To find out more, visit
www.Oregon.gov/REALID.
Washingtonians already
have the option of getting a
Real ID compliant driver li-
cense. If you are a Washing-
ton resident, go to https://

Siuslaw to host Student Success Act community forum Friday
On Friday, Jan. 31, at
10:30 a.m. and 1 p.m.,
Siuslaw School District
Superintendent Andrew
Grzeskowiak and local
leaders are hosting a com-
munity input session in
the Bromley Room of the
Siuslaw Public Library,
1460 Ninth St.
The community is in-
vited to participate in the
discussion pertaining to
the goal of the Student
Success Act law: to hear
and/or use input from
those in the community
that are considered to be
“historically underserved”
in society, with the goal
to close the achievement
gap for minority students,
students with disabilities
or students who are expe-
riencing economic hard-
ship.
A lunch will be provid-
ed at noon between the
sessions. If a person would
like to attend the morning
session, they are invited to
have lunch before heading
out.
If they would like to
attend the afternoon ses-
sion, they can drop in for
lunch before the second
session begins. Both ses-
sions will cover the same
topic.

Presentation to highlight benefits, challenges of 2020 census
Learn why the 2020
Census is important to the
Siuslaw region at 9 a.m. on
Wednesday, Feb. 5, at the
Florence Area Community
Coalition meeting in the
Bromley Room of the Siu-
slaw Public Library.
The meeting is open to
the public.
“The Road to 2020,” pre-
sented by Jim Graham, a
partnership specialist with
the 2020 U.S. Census, will
focus on why we do a de-
cennial Census and will
support the critical message
that the 2020 Census is safe,
important and easy.
Graham will discuss the
impact a Census has on
our communities for the
next 10 years. The Cen-
sus determines the distri-
bution of more than $700
billion annually in federal
funds, which includes pro-
grams such as Medicaid,
SNAP, WIC, Head Start,
the National School Lunch
Program, highway plan-
ning and construction, and
more.
It also defines congres-
sional and state legislative
districts, school districts,
voting precincts and deter-
mines the number of seats
each state get in the U.S.
House of Representatives.
Florence had one of the
highest non-response rates
for Lane County in the
2010 Census, with 13-15
percent of the population
not being counted, accord-
ing to the Lane Council of
Governments.
Graham also will talk
about the Census Partner-
ship Program, which works
with local governments
and community organiza-
tions as we together strive
to identify, reach, interview
and/or persuade “Hard to
Count” populations such
as older adults, young chil-
dren, people experiencing
homelessness and rural
communities to respond to
the 2020 Census.
Finally, the critical im-
portance of Census data
and its role in statistics,
grant funding and plan-
ning in both the public and
private sectors will be dis-
cussed at a high level.
Graham is a Partnership
Specialist with the 2020 U.S.
Census supporting the Ore-
gon Coast. His background
is in senior living manage-
ment, entrepreneurial busi-
ness, and fruit fly genetics,
in addition to years as a U.S.
Navy sonar technician and
Navy instructor.
The program is orga-
nized by the Florence Area
Community Coalition in
partnership with Siuslaw
Vision.
