    Volume 34 Issue 4 Winter 2018 Tree Inventory/ GIS Fulfilling Your Needs In House by Tony Dati Many of you are aware of the devastation EAB has caused. Some of you may have planned for it and others not so much. We here at the Village of Niles thought we were prepared for it. Sometimes your brains are trained to think a certain way. If everything your organization is doing in regards to trees is reactive, you become complacent. If you don’t break that habit you will be doomed to make the same mistake over and over again. Everything we changed in our organization was not done overnight. Most of us attend the Northeast Municipal Foresters meetings or many other types of training. Everyone Spending only a couple minutes at each tree, our in attends them for their own reasons - whether you need CEU’s or there is a particular topic you are interested in. As our staff would sit in these meetings, we would hear what everyone else was doing. We would hear over and over about tree inventories. The Village of Niles had an older tree inventory, but nothing that was up to date. It took dedication and hard work to convince the Village Board that an updated inventory was necessary. The Village of Niles finally had an updated tree inventory done. Having a whole town inventoried does not come cheap. Niles had to find a way to maintain that data, and keep it up to date. The Village of Niles is fortunate to have an in Pictures can be added along with GIS coordinates.

  • In Defense of Our Local Business Community Roseburg Chamber Representing the Interests of Business in Salem and Washington, D.C
    March/AprilMarch 20212018 ...to strengthen, enhance, and protect our members through political advocacy, economic development, community promotion and member programs and services. In Defense of Our Local Business Community Roseburg Chamber Representing the Interests of Business in Salem and Washington, D.C. The Roseburg Area Chamber of Commerce has been busy this year representing business interests during the 2021 Oregon Legislative Session and the 117th U.S. Congress. To date, nearly 4200 bills have been proposed during the Oregon state session, which began with committee days in mid-January. The pandemic has greatly changed how the public’s participation in the public process occurs. While there have been a few bright spots like better than anticipated revenue projections, much proposed legislation, if passed, would have adverse impacts to business. In any year, the chamber would oppose such legislation, but with the unprecedented adverse impacts our businesses have endured this past year due to COVID restrictions and devastating wildfires, it is even more paramount this year. Check out the 2021 legislative calendar. Key dates that will govern this year’s session over the next couple of months are (1) a March 19 deadline for original committee “work session” posting; (2) April 13 is the deadline for original committee “work sessions,” and May 14 is the posting deadline for second chamber “work sessions.” Pursuant to Oregon’s Constitution, sine die is June 27, 2021. The Roseburg Area Chamber voiced its position and submitted written testimony on a number of bills and issues over the past couple of months. Following is a recap of some of the chamber’s advocation activity: 2021 Oregon Legislative Session RACC Opposes: • SB 137-1: This amendment is a tax increase on Oregon businesses, as the proposed amendment would disconnect Oregon businesses from the benefits of the bipartisan CARES Act legislation, which would raise taxes by $115 million on Oregon businesses.
