The City of Madras partnered with the University of Oregon Community Service
Center in order to integrate the Madras Addendum of the Jefferson County Natural
Hazards Mitigation Plan (NHMP) into the City of Madras Comprehensive Plan. This
project included creating a new natural hazards chapter for the comprehensive
plan, which addresses Statewide Planning Goal 7, Natural Hazards. The new
chapter will be one regulatory tool that can help guide future land use decisions in
regards to planning and better preparation for natural hazards in Madras.

University of Oregon. Dept. of Planning, Public Policy and Management. Community Planning Workshop
Amidst increased severity of wildfires throughout the American West, the need for improved preparedness and more robust mitigation strategies for communities in the Wildland Urban Interface have become imperative. The Institute for the Sustainable Environment partnered with Community Service Center to better understand the relationship between wildfire mitigation planning process and outcomes of Community Wildfire Protection Plans in communities throughout the American West. The Healthy Forest Restoration Act of 2003 established a mandate for communities to prepare for wildfire events, the planning of which can be interpreted through Community Wildfire Protection Plans (CWPPs).The Community Service Center at the University of Oregon qualitatively analyzed a set of these plans from geographies affected by fire since 2004. In conjunction with further research regarding the longer-term implications of fire on the safety and well-being of at-risk communities, this analysis seeks to provide an objective measurement of CWPPs, not only for more comprehensive understanding of the documents themselves, but to provide a tool that may be complemented by further case study research.

University of Oregon. Dept. of Planning, Public Policy and Management. Community Planning Workshop
Oregon’s Interagency Hazard Mitigation Team (IHMT) Risk Assessment Sub-Committee (RAS-C), in partnership with faculty from the University of Oregon’s Department of Geography, InfoGraphics’s Lab and Oregon Partnership for Disaster Resilience (OPDR) have collaborated to develop a new risk assessment model concept. When developed and implemented, the model will provide a standardized way to assess vulnerability to natural hazards in Oregon thereby allowing the state to better identify where to strategically target mitigation resources. This initiative has been facilitated by the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) as part of the current update to the Oregon Natural Hazard Mitigation Plan (OR NHMP).
