ODFW ~ Meeting in North Bend April 9th Public Comments Requested on Budget

3/22/2018

Comments

 
The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife will be holding meetings across the state to find out how the department should spend the taxpayer’s money.  Since the voters of Coos County voted against the Bandon Marsh Expansion those same people would probably be opposed to the ODFW spending more of their money on land acquisitions.   
​

The ODFW will be meeting in North Bend in April and the people need to show up to express their opinion to the Board.   The department is the government agency overseeing the wetland restoration in the new Winter Lake Mosquito Refuge.  Before the agency took over the area, it used to be one of the best grazing grounds for grass fed beef, now it is a sanctuary for bloodsuckers….Rob T.

ODFW hosts series of meetings for public input on 2019-21 budget

Wednesday, March 21, 2018

SALEM, Ore.--The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is hosting a series of town hall meetings around the state in April to gather public input on the agency's proposed 2019-21 budget.

The proposed budget, which is being developed by ODFW and an external budget advisory committee, will be presented for review and comment at the meetings listed below taking place in Bend, Klamath Falls, La Grande, Medford, North Bend, Newport, Portland and Tillamook.

“This is a great opportunity for us to meet with our constituents and get their feedback,” said Curt Melcher, ODFW director. “I encourage folks to attend, meet with our staff and learn more about our funding proposals to manage Oregon’s fish and wildlife.”

No major changes to the budget or new fee increases are proposed, though ODFW is discussing the feasibility of eliminating an already planned and approved fee increase set to take effect in 2020.

Public comments will be used to help refine the budget before it is presented to the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission on June 7 in Baker City. Once a proposed budget is approved by the Commission, it will be submitted to the Governor for her consideration. The budget will ultimately be determined by the 2019 Legislature.

All meetings will be held from 7-8:30 p.m.
  • La Grande, Monday, April 2, Blue Mountain Conference Center, 404 12th Street.
  • Bend, Tuesday, April 3, Central Oregon Community College, Boyle Education Bldg, Rm 155, 2600 NW College Way
  • Klamath Falls, Wednesday, April 4, Oregon Institute of Technology, College Union Bldg, Mt Bailey Room, 3201 Campus Drive
  • Medford, Thursday, April 5, Jackson County Library, Medford Branch Adams Room, 205 S Central Ave
  • North Bend, Monday, April 9, North Bend Public Library, 1800 Sherman Ave
  • Newport, Tuesday, April 10, Hallmark Resort, 744 SW Elizabeth St
  • Tillamook, Wednesday, April 11, Tillamook County Library, 1716 3rd Street
  • Portland, Thursday, April 12, Doubletree Inn (Lloyd Center), 1000 NE Multnomah Street

Comments on the agency proposed budget can also be submitted through May 1 by email to ODFW.TownHallComments@state.or.us or by mail to ODFW Director’s Office, 4034 Fairview Industrial Dr. SE, Salem, OR 7302-1142. Public testimony will also be heard at the Commission meeting June 7 in Baker City.
