Abstract
  • Recent national and state legislation reflect a growing awareness of the need for comprehensive cultural resource management programs. Various pieces of federal legislation and Oregon's Senate Bill 100 demonstrate a willingness of governments to provide for such programs. The administration of local land use issues at the state government level has created much controversy in Oregon within the last decade. Controversy was brought to a climax with the enactment of Senate Bill 100. Senate Bill 100 created the Land Conservation and Development Commission (LCDC) in 1973 and gave the Commission authority to establish planning goals and guidelines to be used by local governments in the comprehensive planning process. Goal 5 requires the local planning departments to inventory various resources of the state, including historic areas, sites, structures and objects, and cultural areas. LCDC has encountered difficulties in attempting to implement Planning Goal 5 at the local government level. Problems facing the local planning departments represented here by six Oregon counties in meeting the cultural resource element of Goal 5 are also examined. Using both a descriptive treatment and systems analysis as the approach to data analysis, it is found that the many problems confronting county staffs are important factors relating to the overall quality of responses to Goal 5. County staffs' ill-preparedness to conceive of the goal, let alone respond, is a result of their lack of orientation to and training for the directed task. The vagueness of goal requirements, leading to a maze of misinterpretations, lack of understanding, and the lack of the ability to conceptualize the problems at hand, have created a conflict situation. It is concluded that the degree to which counties have managed to resolve conflicts and overcome problems contributes directly to the quality of responses, LCDC has not determined specific criteria for evaluating county responses to Goals for the plan acknowledgment process. Lack of specific criteria for evaluation has placed LCDC in the position of evaluating county responses without adequate data bases, which in turn has led LCDC to acknowledge compliance for some comprehensive plans which do not fully comply to Goal requirements.
