  • Baker County Community Sensitivity and Resilience
    Baker County Community Sensitivity and Resilience This section documents the community’s sensitivity factors, or those community assets and characteristics that may be impacted by natural hazards, (e.g., special populations, economic factors, and historic and cultural resources). It also identifies the community’s resilience factors, or the community’s ability to manage risk and adapt to hazard event impacts (e.g., governmental structure, agency missions and directives, and plans, policies, and programs). The information in this section represents a snapshot in time of the current sensitivity and resilience factors in the community when the plan was developed. The information documented below, along with the findings of the risk assessment, should be used as the local level rationale for the risk reduction actions identified in Section 6 – Mission, Goals, and Action Items. The identification of actions that reduce a community’s sensitivity and increase its resilience assists in reducing the community’s overall risk, or the area of overlap in Figure G.1 below. Figure G.1 Understanding Risk Source: Oregon Natural Hazards Workgroup, 2006. Northeast Oregon Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan Page G-1 Community Sensitivity Factors The following table documents the key community sensitivity factors in Baker County. Population • Baker County has eight distinct geographic populations, as well as eight unincorporated communities. Incorporated cities are: Baker City, Greenhorn, Haines, Halfway, Huntington, Richland, Sumpter, and Unity. Unincorporated communities include: Durkee, Hereford, Pinetown, McEwen, Keating, Sparta, New Bridge, and Oxbow. Communities are geographically dispersed with little communication or interconnection. If communities need to be warned of an event, or require disaster assistance, distance and dispersal will be communication barriers.

  • City of Biddeford, Maine Open Space Plan
    City of Biddeford, Maine Open Space Plan Biddeford Pool Marshes & Wildlife Habitat Prepared by the City of Biddeford Open Space Committee November 2012 PREFACE When I was first asked to be on the Biddeford Open Space ad-hoc Committee by Marcel Polak of the Maine Association of Conservation Commissions on behalf of then, Mayor Joanne Twomey, I ĞŶƚŚƵƐŝĂƐƚŝĐĂůůLJƐĂŝĚ͞LJĞƐ͘͟ I was reasonably excited but cautiously optimistic. I have a very strong passion for land conservation and my knowledge of the subject is constantly evolving. After the introductions and brief conversations in our first meeting back in January 2009, the topic of the need for a chairperson came up. I now ƌĞĐĂůůĞǀĞƌLJďŽĚLJ͛ƐĞLJĞƐƚƵƌŶŝŶŐƚŽǁĂƌĚŵĞĂŶĚĂƐƚŚĞLJƐĂLJ͞ŝƚŝƐĂůů ŚŝƐƚŽƌLJ͘͟ I graciously accepted and the reality of taking charge of organization, delegation, research, setting meetings and pushing for a draft of the Open Space Plan took hold. Now, close to three years later, and countless number of meetings, walks, and drafts, we have an Open Space Plan for the citizens of Biddeford. As you read through this document, it is fluid and can be modified, added and changed. The data will need to be updated as time goes by. Parcels will be sold, merged, conserved, developed or remain the same. Land is static. dŚŝƐƌĞƉŽƌƚŝƐŐŽŝŶŐƚŽďĞĞůĞĐƚƌŽŶŝĐĂůůLJƌĞƉƌŽĚƵĐĞĚŽŶŝƚLJŽĨŝĚĚĞĨŽƌĚ͛ƐǁĞďƐŝƚĞ where changes can be made. We have had public input and we are looking for more feedback. Biddeford is on the move and adapting to the constant demand of undeveloped space on untapped resources. dŚŝƐŝƐŶŽƚĂƌĞƉŽƌƚŽŶ͞ƐƚŽƉĂůůŐƌŽǁƚŚĂŶĚŬĞĞƉĂůůŐƌĞĞŶ͘͟ It is an inventory, a resource item, and a foundation guide for future land conservation and planning efforts. It is also an outreach to landowners to offer them options on their choice of land use.

  • History Unrecorded Is History Lost: Oregon Trail Ancestors Day to Be
    NEWS RELEASE OR-038-2007-001 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE OCTOBER 11, 2006 NEWS CONTACT: GARY KOY, (541) 523-1827 BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT, VALE DISTRICT OFFICE, 100 OREGON STREET, VALE, OREGON 97918 History Unrecorded is History Lost Oregon Trail Ancestors Day to be held at Interpretive Center BAKER CITY, Oregon – Ever wish you had just one more day to talk to your grandparents? Do you wish you had thought to write down the family stories they told you? If you had it to do over would you do it differently? The theme of Ancestors Day at the National Historic Oregon Trail Interpretive Center on Saturday October 21, 2006 is “History Unrecorded Is History Lost”. The goal of the day is to provide you the opportunity to learn the right questions to ask and how to record the information you gather when you talk to your elders. Historians of the future will thank you. Ancestors Day activities will take place at the Interpretive Center between noon and 4 p.m. Information on the locally available resources to trace your family tree will be featured. The Baker County Library will be providing information on how to do genealogies and the extensive resources that you can access through the Library. At the same time, the Eastern Oregon University History Club will be presenting information on Oral Histories. They will provide guidance on questions you should ask your elders and ways to record the answers. At 12:30 p.m. in the Leo Adler Theater, Susan Badger Doyle of the Oregon-California Trails Association will be presenting “Finding the Oregon Trail In Historical Resources.” This presentation outlines how personal diaries of the pioneer era are used to find remaining remnants of the Oregon Trail and what those diaries tells us about life in the mid-1800’s.
