This includes clustering chapters dealing with similar information into separate sections, e.g., Administrative Provisions (18.200), Land Use Decisions (18.300), Specific Development Standards (18.700), which are designed to assist users to find the information they seek more readily. In the Planning Commission Draft, the old chapter numbers are contained in parentheses, to aid in cross- referencing between old and new formats; these will be eliminated in the final draft. With regard to specific chapters: • New Chapters. There are four new chapters: Accessory Residential Uses (18.705), Design Compatibility Standards (18.720), Water Resources Overlay District (18.797), and Wireless Communication Facilities (18.798). The first three have been created to meet the requirements of the Metro 2040 Growth Management Functional Plan. The fourth deals with a relatively new land use, cellular towers, for which there are no existing regulations. • Consolidated Chapters. When appropriate, chapters have been combined. These include: - Several administrative chapters (18.06 - 18.20) have been combined into a single chapter, General Administrative Provisions (18.210). - The existing “Procedures for Making Decisions” chapters, Legislative Decisions (18.30) and Quasi-Judicial Decisions (18.32), have been consolidated into a single chapter now known as Decision-Making Procedures (18.390). - The 17 chapters relating to zoning districts have been consolidated into just three chapters: Residential Zoning Districts (18.510), Commercial Zoning Districts (18.520) and Industrial Zoning Districts (18.530). - Several existing chapters, Additional Setback Requirements, Exceptions to Building Height Limitations and Zero Lot Line Setback Requirements, have been combined into one new chapter, Excepting to Development Standards (18.730). • Eliminated Chapters. Several existing chapters have been eliminated: - Accessory Structures (18.144): Can be handled in definitions and zoning district development tables. - Established Area/Development Area Classification (18.138): Outdated concept related to residential density transition zones; its elimination will require Comprehensive Plan change. - Flexible Setback Standards (18.146): To be replaced by Chapter 18.370, Variances and Adjustments. - Fuel Tank Installations (18.104): Already addressed in Uniform Fire Code. - Listed Use: Authorization of Similar Use (18.43): Type of Director's Interpretation (18.340). - Solar Access Requirements (18.88): Dated regulations; staff has asked for repeal.

Some geographers study how nature affects where—and how—people live, while others study the environment, including things like earthquakes, volcanoes, and how the landscape was formed. Many geographers also create maps. Hi kids, my name is Sandy! I’m a Chinook Salmon: the official Oregon state fish. I’ll be your friendly guide throughout the activities in this book. 1 Important Geography Words Globe: A globe shows all of planet Earth in a round form Map: A map is a flat drawing of a place Compass: A compass shows direction – North (N), East (E), South (S), and West (W) Fish don’t need maps or compasses because we are born with an “internal compass” which helps us get where we need to go.

  • REDESIGNING the OREGON STATE FLAG: a Case Study
    REDESIGNING THE OREGON STATE FLAG: A Case Study Ted Kaye November 2009 Based on papers presented at the 23rd International Congress of Vexillology, Yokohama, Japan—July 2009 and the 43rd Annual Meeting of the North American Vexillological Association, Charleston, South Carolina—October 2009 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 3 OREGON’S FLAG 3 THE CONTEST 4 THE ENTRIES 5 THE JUDGING 8 THE FINALISTS 11 THE RESULTS 14 THE LEGISLATURE 14 LESSONS LEARNED 15 CONCLUSIONS 16 APPENDIX 1—THE CONTEST 17 APPENDIX 2—EXPERT OPINIONS 19 Redesigning the Oregon State Flag: A Case Study Ted Kaye November 2009 p. 2 INTRODUCTION The recent contest to redesign the state flag of Oregon and its subsequent political failure provide an excellent case study for any attempt to replace a long-flying flag. After the North American Vexillological Association (NAVA) published the results of its 2001 survey of U.S. and Canadian state, provincial, and territorial flags, I asserted a theory of flag adoption: 1 …the steps to actually getting a state flag changed to a successful design [are]: 1) Stir up public discontent with the flag (this requires an external event). 2) Get state government buy-in that a change is necessary. 3) Create a process to take in designs. 4) Name a proper committee to judge them. 5) Have the legislature vote yes/no. I have since confirmed this theory through experience with other state and local flag-design efforts.2 In this presentation I will show how my own state served as a test case, which despite success with steps 3 and 4, failed on steps 1 and 2.
