Tourism & Arts Fund Grants
Tourism and Arts Fund Grant Applications are available at Cannon Beach City Hall or online
at www.ci.cannon-beach.or.us. Non-profit organizations providing programs/projects that
further tourism and the arts in Cannon Beach are invited to apply. All applications must be
received at City Hall by 2:00 pm, Wednesday, May 4, 2016.
I’d like to thank all of the residents who have already completed their Citizen Survey and
would like to encourage those who have not to take time over the next week to do so. Responses
received by the end of April will be a part of the final report that will be used to help with the City
Council’s strategic planning process. This is your chance to have your opinion heard!
The NCS is a nationally acclaimed community livability assessment tool. It was developed
by experts to produce clear, unbiased and accurate results. Although many questions are
applicable to all cities you will notice that there are also questions specific to our community.
The NCS will assist council and staff in prioritizing city services that citizens feel are most
important. Rarely do we hear from more than a handful of residents on any given topic, the NCS
will be your opportunity to have your voice heard. You will have the option of completing the
survey either online or in a paper format.
If you have any questions, please contact the City Manager’s office at (503) 436-8050.
Remember that your response is completely anonymous. We look forward to hearing from you!
Volunteers Needed for the Cannon Beach Medical Reserve Corps
MISSION:
The Cannon Beach Medical Reserve Corps (CBMRC) mission is to protect the health and safety
of our community by maintaining a pool of healthcare professionals and support staff that are
trained and ready to respond during a emergency where local capabilities are not sufficient.
The CBMRC is dedicated to promoting community resiliency and providing emergency health-
related services.
The vision of the Cannon Beach Medical Reserve Corps (CBMRC) is to enlist citizen volunteers
to assist in the establishment of an organized pool of resources capable of being deployed to
support Emergency Medical Services already in place in the event of a major emergency. The
goal of the CBMRC will be that of a support role in providing volunteer medical professionals
and resources to augment those services in the community that are engaged in the health and
welfare of the citizenry.
CBMRC GOALS:
1. The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) Unit is sponsored by the City of Cannon Beach and
is intended to supplement the resources of the existing community emergency medical
response system. The MRC unit will not replace or supplant the existing emergency medical
response system or its resources. During emergencies, MRC volunteers may also provide an
important “surge” capability to perform some functions usually performed by emergency
medical response teams who have been mobilized. CBMRC volunteers can also augment
medical and support staff shortages at local medical or emergency facilities.
2. The CBMRC is supported by the Cannon Beach Mass Care Planning Group that is comprised
of various government and community stakeholders. The CBMRC Mass Care Planning Group
will assist the City staff with planning its response to numerous health-related situations.
Examples include, Mass Care response and recovery, animal care during disasters, distribution
of pharmaceuticals as well support numerous tasks to help the City manage public health
issues when there is a shortage of regular healthcare providers or healthcare support staff
because of a local, human made or natural disaster.
For more information, or to register as a volunteer with the Cannon Beach MRC, please contact
CBMRC Coordinator , Lila Wickham at (503) 504-0193 or by email lilawickhamrn@gmail. com.
Interested? Please attend the
CBMRC ‘meet & greet’ event
April 25th 6pm-8pm at the Cannon
Beach Chamber of Commerce
Community Hall.
