As an alterna tive. Oreconlans In many areas of the state are sitting down together now and making plans that will Insure orderly devel opment and growth of their areas. One of the most useful tools for the planners Is toning to guide land use. A good zoning ordinance will help a commu nltv develop to Its fullest po tential while preserving the qualities that make the com munity a desirable place for people to live: qualities such as pure air. clean water, pleasant surroundings and areas that provide opportunities for out door recreation. Zoning can al so prevent urban blight a dis ease that attacks communities where haphazard, unregulated land use spreads sprawling sub divisions, shopping centers and garbage dumps over the coun tryside. Urban sprawl can block construction development and increase the tax burden while driving out farming and keep ing other tax-producing indus try away. How does a county or com munity get a good zoning ordi nance written and passed? In Union county, to take an exam ple of a county that passes a well-thought out. effective zon ing ordinance, first step was for the County Court to appoint a County Planning Commission. I son of Mr. and Mrs. William J.

Don VonWinkle Completes Course local planning commissi o n s, school board members, county courts, extension specialist nad economists from Oregon State University, and others, to ob tain background information and to find how other areas had arrived at zoning ordinan ces. The commissioners also met with the leadership In all in corporated cities of the county, to obtain assistance and advice in zoning areas surrounding these cities. Under the state law, they then adopted an interim ordinance that allowed them to do some zoning while the per manent complete zoning ordi nance was being prepared. . Land use maps that indicate the use of each piece of prop erty in the county were prepared and used to establish guide lines for countywide zoning. Fi nal step was to prepare a com plete, countywide zoning ordi nance, which was approved by the County Court after a series of public hearings. The entire process took approximately six years. Union county is now one of two counties in the state with countywide zoning. During the entire six year process, people living and work- pleted a basic Army adminis tration course at Fort Ord, Cal if., Jan. 28. Van Winkle entered the Army last September and completed basic training at Fort Ord. I The 19-year-old soldier was ' graduated from Heppner High School in 1964. council. lng In the county were kept In formed at every step along the way. They were told, through newspapers, at public meetings. through talks given by the plan ners at meetings of civic orga nizations and other groups, why and how the zoning plans were being made. Keeping people in formed and getting their sup port for zoning is essential if land use planning Is to be ef fective. This same process can be ap plied to your own problems of land use planning. One of the best places to start is at your county office of the Oregon State University, and to the Federal Government In turn, he can- call on local, state and national resources to assist you in eliective planning for devel opment and use of natural resources.
