City addendum City of Reedsport
(City of Reedsport (Or.), 2010-03) Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience; Reedsport (Or.)
The city of Reedsport developed this addendum to the Douglas County multi-jurisdictional Natural Hazards Mitigation Plan in an effort to increase the community’s resilience to natural hazards. The addendum focuses on the natural hazards that could affect Reedsport, Oregon, which include: coastal erosion, drought, earthquake, flood, landslide, tsunami, wildfire, windstorm, and winter storm. It is impossible to predict exactly when disasters may occur, or the extent to which they will affect the city. However, with careful planning and collaboration among public agencies, private sector organizations, and citizens within the community, it is possible to minimize the losses that can result from natural hazards. The addendum provides a set of actions that aim to reduce the risks posed by natural hazards through education and outreach programs, the development of partnerships, and the implementation of preventative activities such as land use programs. The actions described in the addendum are intended to be implemented through existing plans and programs within the city when possible. This addendum is comprised of the following sections: 1) Addendum Development Process; 2) Community Profile; 3) Risk Assessment; 4) Action Items; and 5) Plan Implementation and Maintenance.

Douglas County : Transportation conditions report, I-5 interchanges 119/120
(Oregon. Dept. of Transportation, 2005-10) Douglas County (Or.); Oregon. Dept. of Transportation; David Evans and Associates; Winston (Or.)
The Conditions Report project is intended as the first step in planning for long-range improvements. This initial step is needed to gain a better understanding of both the current and the future deficiencies of these two interchanges. In the future, an Interchange Area Management Plan will be drafted using information from this Conditions Report to determine a preferred build solution that will solve the transportation problems within this area. Both interchanges have structurally deficient bridges and traffic operations limitations. The goal of this report is to identify and document conditions, limitations, opportunities and needs so that subsequent planning can address all relevant issues and focus on those that are most important.
