NB Receives "Catalyst Design Grant”
City of North Bend release - The City of North Bend has been selected for Salazar Architect Inc.’s “Catalyst Design Grant,” an in-kind award providing up to $15,000 in professional design services to help mission-driven projects during the earliest planning stages. “This grant gives us a valuable opportunity to bring expert, public-interest design guidance to the table early—before major development decisions are locked in,” said North Bend City Manager David Milliron. “That kind of early feasibility and concept work can significantly improve long-term outcomes for our community.” Salazar Architect, a Portland-based public interest architecture and urban design firm, will work with the City to explore feasibility and early concept options for a downtown workforce housing initiative on publicly owned property. The work will be informed by the firm’s Community, Wellbeing, and Sustainable Design approaches. “Salazar’s focus on community-centered design, wellbeing, and sustainability aligns closely with what we want to prioritize from the start,” Milliron said. “We want this project to be feasible, durable, and responsive to the needs of the people who live and work here.” Milliron said the effort is driven by ongoing housing challenges affecting North Bend and many communities across Oregon. “North Bend is facing a serious housing shortage,” Milliron said. “Essential employees—teachers, first responders, healthcare workers, and other critical workers—are increasingly priced out of the local market or commuting long distances. We need more attainable housing options close to jobs, services, and downtown amenities.” The City is advancing redevelopment of the former Coos County Courthouse Annex in the downtown core, with a preliminary goal of creating approximately 70 or more workforce housing units. The City is also exploring the potential for community-serving space at the ground level. “Our goal is to redevelop an obsolete public building site into housing that supports the local workforce and strengthens downtown,” Milliron said. “We’re also looking at how ground-floor space could contribute to the neighborhood and the broader community.” Earlier the week, the Salazar team visited North Bend to tour the Courthouse Annex site and the former hospital property, and met with City representatives from Administration, Public Works, Finance, Tourism, and Economic Development and Urban Renewal. “They took time to understand the site, the surrounding context, and the practical considerations—utilities, infrastructure, community goals, and financing realities,” Milliron said. “That kind of cross-department input is important as we define what success looks like.” The next step is a design charrette that took place Tuesday, Feb. 10 in Portland, where the Salazar team and City staff worked through early concepts and recommendations to help guide future decisions related to site layout, massing, program options, and sustainability priorities. “The charrette is where we translate goals and constraints into a small set of realistic options,” Milliron said. “The intent is to come out of that process with clear recommendations and a roadmap for what needs to be studied next.” Milliron said the project’s funding strategy includes multiple sources, including federal and state investments and local urban renewal planning that has already been completed through the required public process. “We have secured $4 million in federal funding with support from the offices of Senator Ron Wyden, Senator Jeff Merkley, and Representative Val Hoyle,” Milliron said. “We also received a $100,000 Business Oregon Housing Infrastructure Support Fund grant for pre-design engineering, environmental and historic review, and infrastructure planning to help prepare the site for demolition and redevelopment.” Milliron added that the project is included as a priority in the North Bend Urban Renewal Agency’s amended plan. “The Annex is included as a priority project in the Urban Renewal Agency’s amended plan, and that substantial plan amendment has already been completed through the required public process,” Milliron said. “We’ll continue to share updates as the charrette and follow-up work move forward.”

Sink Hole Update, Hwy. 101, near CB/NB City Limits
Excerpt from City Administrator's report to the City Council - Highway 101 at Newmark Storm System: Legal representatives for the City and the Oregon Department of Transportation have reviewed potential regulatory authority over the Highway 101 at Newmark storm system. City staff will meet with the department during the week of February 16 to identify a mutually beneficial long-term solution. The City’s position is that, regardless of ownership, the system does not serve a City purpose and abandonment would be the preferred option. Discussions will focus on how the department would like to address drainage for the highway. (North Bend Strategic Plan: Financial Sustainability; Infrastructure Improvement)

25th year Coquille Tribe distributes Community Fund grants
Coquille Tribe release - NORTH BEND – Nearly $100,000 in funds were distributed through the Coquille Tribal Community Fund to a total of 28 grant projects spread throughout five southwestern Oregon counties. Grant recipients gathered in person at the awards reception at The Ko-Kwel Casino Resort | Coos Bay on February 5 to collect their checks. The tribe’s grants will help organizations fund projects in five categories: health, arts and culture, education, environmental, public safety, and historic preservation. Since 2001, the fund has now distributed just under $9 million to over 1,075 grant projects. The Coquille Indian Tribe established its Community Fund in the tribe’s tradition of sharing with its neighbors. The intent was to share some of the proceeds of what was The Mill Casino-Hotel, recently re-branded as The Ko-Kwel Casino Resort | Coos Bay, with organizations that benefit southwestern Oregon. The fund seeks to strengthen the communities by improving opportunities and lives throughout the region. "It was exciting to see so many of our community partners come together,” Coquille Indian Tribe Chair Brenda Meade said after the event. “This event is really all about bringing people together and making sure they have the seed money to do these projects." Victory Webber, with The Friendly Kitchen, was on hand to pick up a $2,000 grant award out of the $95,000 in total award funds being handed out. She said the Meals on Wheels program in Roseburg can greatly utilize these funds. "We just appreciate so much the support we get from the Coquille Tribe.” Webber said. “It's just amazing." The Coquille Tribal Community Fund accepts grant applications in the fall of each year. Learn more at www.coquilletribe.org, or call fund administrator Sam Black at 541-756-0904, ext. 1212.

OHA Healthy Homes Grant supports recovery housing improvements
OHA release - What you should know: OHA program helped residential recovery organization make healthy home improvements. Soaring Heights Recovery Homes in Keizer received $205,000 in grant funding for home safety projects. The improvements create a healthier living environment for residents in the program. KEIZER, Ore.--- Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is supporting healthier, safer housing for people in recovery through its Healthy Homes Grant Program, including funding awarded recently to Soaring Heights Recovery Homes in Keizer. The Healthy Homes Grant Program helps organizations make home improvements that reduce health and safety risks, improve indoor conditions and create healthier living environments for people in Oregon, particularly those in low-income or historically underserved communities. Ensuring safe and accessible housing is one of the goals of OHA’s 2025-2027 Strategic Plan. Among the plan’s key strategies is implementing policies and procedures “that facilitate equitable access to quality housing.” The Healthy Homes Grant Program is helping OHA to meet this goal. At just over a year into a three-year grant period, grantees have served 373 low-income households and the 747 individuals living in those homes, making homes healthier in 27 counties across Oregon. At Soaring Heights Recovery Homes, OHA’s Healthy Homes grant funded upgrades that included new sidewalks to improve safe access around the property; improved fencing to enhance safety and security; window repairs to support energy efficiency and indoor comfort; and pest mitigation to reduce health risks. “Safe, stable and healthy housing plays a critical role in recovery and long-term well-being,” said Brett Sherry, Healthy Homes Grant Program manager at OHA’s Public Health Division. “Through the Healthy Homes Grant Program, OHA can partner with organizations like Soaring Heights that are creating safer, healthier spaces for people working toward recovery.” Located in the Salem-Keizer area, Soaring Heights operates four homes that provide transitional housing to nearly 30 adults. The organization provides structured, peer-supported recovery housing for men, women and families, including parents working toward reunification with their children. Residents have access to stable housing while focusing on recovery, employment and transitioning to permanent housing. “We had to have all the windows replaced because they were old and leaky, and wind was blowing in all the time. The cedar siding was cupped, and water was leaking into the house. It created an unhealthy environment for the people that were living here. These upgrades help ensure our homes are safe, healthy and welcoming places for people in recovery,” said Eric Rasor, executive director of Soaring Heights Recovery Homes. “Support from OHA allows us to focus on what matters most—helping our residents build stability and move forward with their lives.” For more information about OHA’s Healthy Homes Grant Program, visit Oregon Health Authority’s website.

Day Use Visits Dips, but OPRD Parks Remain a Beloved Destination
OPRD release - SALEM, Oregon— Oregon State Parks welcomed an estimated 51.46 million day-use visits* in 2025, a slight decrease from the record-breaking 53.85 million visits recorded in 2024, but visitation remains historically strong and widespread across the state. While parks along the coast and in the Willamette Valley saw modest declines, Central and Eastern Oregon parks recorded a small increase, reflecting continued demand for outdoor recreation in every region. The Oregon coast remains the system’s most popular destination, with 362 miles of publicly managed beaches. Day-use visits there dropped from 32.5 million in 2024 to 30.65 million in 2025. Willamette Valley parks also saw a decline, from 11.44 million to 10.71 million. In contrast, the Central and Eastern Oregon park visitation climbed to 10.09 million visits up from 9.89 million the year before. Overnight stays followed a similar trend. Visitors logged 2.6 million camper nights* in 2025, down from 2.83 million in 2024. Temporary campground closures at popular parks like Collier Memorial, Silver Falls, Fort Stevens, and Nehalem Bay contributed to the decrease as critical maintenance and infrastructure work moved forward. At the same time, the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) continues to face high and rising costs to operate, maintain and protect park lands, facilities and visitor services. Aging infrastructure, increasing maintenance needs, and higher operating expenses have put sustained pressure on the system. While the agency has updated fees to better reflect current costs, those fees do not fully cover the cost of running and caring for Oregon’s state parks. OPRD is also navigating a projected budget shortfall, which means every visit, every pass, and every act of stewardship matters. Unlike many public services, OPRD does not receive general fund tax dollars. The system relies on user fees, a portion of the Oregon State Lottery revenue, and a share of recreational vehicle (R.V.) registration fees to keep parks open, safe and welcoming. “Even with small year to year changes in visitation, the love people have for Oregon State Parks is clear,” said Interim Director Stefanie Coons. “We want to do everything we can to continue to provide high quality experiences and create treasured memories for our visitors. Every visit and every supporter truly make a difference in helping us care for these special places.” Looking ahead in 2026, Fort Stevens State Park is scheduled to complete its campground utility this spring. Two more projects, safety upgrades at Cape Lookout and visitor center completion at Silver Falls, will break ground in 2026. OPRD is also recruiting for its 2026 seasonal workforce, with park ranger and park ranger assistant positions open statewide. Park rangers and support staff play a vital role in keeping parks clean, safe, and enjoyable while offering educational and recreational opportunities for millions of visitors.
