PRESENTATION – NORTH CLACKAMAS SCHOOL DISTRICT’S LOCAL OPTION LEVY Superintendent Matt Utterback reported that the North Clackamas School District (NCSD) serves 17,000 students made up of 32 schools, and was the seventh largest district in Oregon. The state of Oregon wasn’t providing adequate funding to NCSD to maintain its daily operations. It’s anticipated that by 2019-2020, NCSD would have a shortfall of $17 million. Currently, NCSD has implemented cost saving measures, which have resulted in cutting school days, delayed purchasing student equipment and curriculum, fewer full time counselors, reduced staff professional development time, and reduced staff salaries. If the levy is voter-approved, the funds would prevent cutting teaching positions, retain class sizes, and prevent canceling school days. If approved, it would cost up to $1.63 per $1,000 of 2 assessed property value, or roughly $30 a month for five years for a home with a property value of $221,800. Mitzi Bauer, NSCD board member, encouraged the audience to vote for the levy if they were voters living in the NSCD. People could help with canvasing neighborhoods or by donating funds. Handouts were provided to the Board and to staff. This information could also be found on NCSD’s website: http://www.nclack.k12.or.us/. VII. PRESENTATION – FIRE PREVENTION MONTH Deputy Fire Marshal (DFM) Captain Kari Shanklin shared about the fall community events, which began with the Hilltop Health and Safety Fair that took place on September 15. This year, the Fire District partnered with NW Natural Gas and combined their “Get Ready” event with the safety fair. NW Natural Gas provided hot dogs and chips for attendees. Fire Prevention Month is next month and theme established by the National Fire Protection Association is “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware. Fire can happen anywhere.” Open houses were scheduled for every Saturday in October at a fire station. The Fire District distributed 11,000 flyers to the North Clackamas and Oregon City School Districts regarding the theme’s safety tips and the fire station open houses schedule. In addition, the flyer was placed as an ad through Pamplin Media, which was featured in the Clackamas Review/Oregon City News. The Public Information Office will be placing consistent and targeted safety messages on all of the Fire District’s social media platforms for the month as well. VIII.

  • Land Management Plan Monitoring Report
    United States Department of Agriculture Biennial Monitoring Evaluation Report for the San Bernardino National Forest Fiscal Year 2018 Forest Service San Bernardino National Forest October 2019 For More Information Contact: Jason Collier 602 S Tippecanoe Ave San Bernardino CA 92408 (909) 454-4728 Forest Service San Bernardino National Forest October 2019 I am pleased to present the San Bernardino National Forest’s annual Monitoring and Evaluation Report for your review. The purpose of the Monitoring and Evaluation Report is to share our determination of the effectiveness of the Land Management Plan and whether changes are necessary to the Plan, or in program or project implementation. The 2006 Record of Decision for the San Bernardino National Forest Land Management Plan identified the monitoring requirements as the cornerstone of our program emphasis for the future. In 2014, the Forest Plan was amended to incorporate changes to land use zones and Forest Plan Monitoring. This report is completed under the newly revised monitoring strategy; however in 2015, the Forest completed the transition to the new monitoring program as required under the 2012 Planning Rule, and this transition includes new processes for monitoring that will continue to be used in this fiscal year 2018 monitoring report as well as future reports. The lessons we learn from monitoring help improve our programs and projects. We continue to find ways to increase efficiency and effectiveness of our monitoring and evaluation efforts. It is my commitment to keep you informed of the monitoring results by providing this report. If you would like to participate in future monitoring, please contact the Forest.
