SUMMARY:Open Spaces and Open Houses? The Tradeoffs in Oregon’s Land Use System
DESCRIPTION:Oregon’s land use system is 50 years old. It is both celebrated for its prevention of urban sprawl and derided for driving up housing costs. Join City Club as they welcome nationally recognized land use expert Bill Fulton\, as he explores what makes Oregon’s land use system unique\, and its strengths and weaknesses compared to other systems in the U.S.  Is it accomplishing its goals? Have there been unintended consequences?   You will then move into a discussion with local representatives from the development and conservation community and Bill\, focusing on what they find successful in this system\, what is frustrating\, and how it could be improved.

SUMMARY:BEYOND THE BEYOND: PREPARING BEND FOR A WILD FUTURE
DESCRIPTION:How will our city and our lives be changed by population growth\, a warming world\, hotter summers and less water\, new technologies and other emerging trends? And how can we plan to maintain our region’s beauty and quality of life? \nBeing resilient and seeking out opportunities to innovate is what moved Oregon into the forefront of planning 50 years ago and it’s what we strive to be far into the future. Come learn how planning will need to change in future decades with case studies on transforming traditional suburbs\, developing new models for infrastructure planning\, and building resiliency in an era of climate-driven events — and what we can do to retain the best of Bend as it moves into a wild future. \nAdmission is FREE but due to space constraints\, pre-registration is required. Doors will open at 6:30pm and the program starts at 7pm. A no-host bar will be available. \n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER FOR FREE\n\n\n\n\n\nTHIS IS PART 3 OF A THREE-PART SERIES CELEBRATING OREGON’S LAND USE LAWS. YOU CAN VIEW PART 1 AND PART 2 HERE.

SUMMARY:The West is Burning Film Screening - La Pine
DESCRIPTION:Discover Your Forest\, in partnership with the Deschutes National Forest and the Upper Deschutes River Communities\, is hosting a public screening of The West is Burning followed by a panel discussion with specialists in land management\, forest/fire ecology\, fire management\, and adaptive communities. \nThe free community event will be held at the La Pine Activity Center\, 16450 Victory Way\, La Pine on Thursday\, October 5th. The event begins at 6:30 p.m. with dinner and childcare beginning at 6:00 p.m. \nThe West is Burning examines the history of forest management and social conflict that has contributed to current forest conditions\, causing longer fire seasons and unprecedented impacts. The film emphasizes the need to act now to generate positive change in our forests\, watersheds\, and communities. Six real-life perspectives drive the film’s narrative to help raise awareness about the conditions of forests in the western U.S. Their stories demonstrate the need to embrace a new era of forest stewardship\, and the unique partnerships that are being built across community-based organizations\, government entities\, and private and non-governmental organizations. These thought leaders highlight the need for a unified response to climate change\, land use\, and forest restoration\, and emphasize the importance of community-based solutions to these challenges. \nRepresentatives from local forestry and fire organizations will host tables and share information on wildfire preparedness before and after the event. \nThis is a free event with dinner and childcare provided. For more information contact Discover Your Forest’s Wildland Fire Education Coordinator\, Emily Curtis\, at emily.curtis@discovernw.org. \n\nAny donations received through this form will go towards Discover Your Forest’s wildland fire and forest restoration public outreach and education programs. \nGet tickets here!
