The three R’s of the Santiam Canyon region traditionally have been recreation, relaxation and resources. After the devastating wildfires of 2020 they became recover, rebuild and renew.

Recovery has been an ongoing process, but Canyon Strong, our communities have added a fourth R: resilience!

With determination, persistence, and assistance from the federal level with FEMA, the state, Marion and Linn counties, the Santiam Service Integration Team, Santiam Canyon Wildfire Relief Fund, Santiam Long Term Recovery Group, and SEDCOR’s Santiam Rebuild Coalition recovery continues.

Those who lost homes, businesses, and their sense of security to the flames are finding ways to rise again. Local organizations are undergoing a revitalization, too. They are resuming favorite events and welcoming new members and projects.

The fire-scarred landscape continues to show signs of renewal. There’s green on the forest floor and in the branches of trunkblackened trees. Plots are cleared of rubble. More parks have reopened. Community activities are reviving.

Revisioning town halls are being held to gather citizen input on ways to move forward. Signs of construction dot the landscape. Businesses have pivoted, focusing on what they can do rather than what was lost.

The North Santiam Chamber of Commerce invites you to join in the excitement of resurgence. Enjoy the Santiam 2023 magazine. It’s a great reference tool for what makes our communities strong.

Finishing the job Santiam Canyon continues to rally from wildfires

Time plays tricks on us. A huge forest of mature Douglas firs is a marvel to behold, but there are no 17th Century photos of what the forest looked like when it was growing and developing. We don’t always see the steps along the way that led to and produced the marvels.

Forests don’t rebound overnight from something as devastating as the 2020 Labor Day wildfires. Ditto for communities such as those in the Santiam Canyon. Sometimes it’s baby steps, like the promise shown by a seedling sprouting in a scorched section of the Santiam State Forest. Sometimes it’s a big move, like the $12 million state appropriation that will play a key role in helping Canyon families rebuild. But they add up, they all contribute to that sum of light.

The Beachie Creek and Lionshead fires scorched 400,000 acres, destroyed more than 1,500 structures and virtually leveled Detroit and Gates, with Mill City, Idanha and Lyons suffering moderate to extensive damage. Five people were killed.

Here are some glimpses of a region resurgent, one in which you have to forget about returning to normal and instead accept the new normal, a new normal that reflects the continuing resilience of the Canyon and its residents.

Housing

The $12 million in state money, awarded by the Oregon Housing and Community Services, is part of $150 million in state funding

approved by the Legislature as part of House Bill 5006, a supplemental state budget appropriations measure that took effect July 1, 2021.

The new money will target those in the Canyon who still are looking to rebuild, a number that has been steadily dropping. According to case management data compiled by Santiam Hospital, 470 Canyon homes were lost in the 2020 fires. A total of 252 families have rebuilt or relocated. A total of 107 households are currently working with case managers, with 91 homeowners currently rebuilding and 16 renters in search of units to rent. It’s that last 107 that the $12 million is going to be used to assist.

“This is likely the biggest news for Santiam Canyon wildfire recovery efforts since the fires were put out,” said Deana Freres, board president of the Santiam Long Term Recovery Group.

OHCS has restricted the funds to families whose income does not exceed 120% of the area median income. The median household income in the Canyon is approximately $68,000. Thus, 120% of that figure, or the maximum allowable under the program, would be $81,500.

The income level required for the funding proved to be a challenge during discussions on terms between the county and the OHCS, said Danielle Bethell, Marion County commissioner.

“We have been in discussions with OHCS since April of 2021 on these funds,” she said. “It has

been a long and grueling process. Originally, OHCS only wanted to serve up to 80% AMI (approximately $54,500), which was not and is not sufficient for our neighbors in the Canyon. Our persistence is paying off and we will be able to help far more of the remaining wildfire survivors get back into permanent, stable housing.”

Mill City

Two of the biggest post-fire housing developments are targeted for Mill City, the 66-unit Santiam Meadows affordable housing project on 15 acres west of town and south of Highway 22. A nearby 4.3 acre plot is scheduled for 54 apartments/townhouses in the Greenlight development.

Forests and parks

Santiam State Forest officials have planted 3 million trees, mainly Douglas firs, with lumber firms, individual property owners and volunteer parties adding to that total. The Oregon Department of Forestry has supervised the salvage-logging of 57 million board feet in the 48,000-acre forest.

Each year a park re-opens or resumes access to previously closed areas or amenities across a wide range of jurisdictions: the ODF, Marion County, the Bureau of Reclamation, Oregon State Parks,

the U.S. Forest Service and individual Canyon towns.

The Santiam Horse Camp (ODF) above Gates is back to offering its popular equestrian campsites and trail system. Fishermen’s Bend (BLM) near Mill City just opened more day-use activities. Fox Creek, Humbug and Elk Lake (USFS) have reopened in the

Willamette National Forest. Marion County hopes to reopen its Bear Creek and Salmon Falls facilities toward the end of the year, timed to coincide with the county’s ending the access restrictions to roads into the North Fork/Elkhorn area.

Detroit

The town which suffered perhaps the greatest fire damage, continues to fight back. New homes continue to spring up, a new restaurant, the Mountain House Diner, has opened, and the city is about to close the books on a massive land use code revision with planning assistance from the Mid-Willamette Valley Council of Governments.

Marion County economic development officials are assisting with a proposed project to dredge under the city’s two marinas, reducing the times during the year in which the water level at Detroit Lake is too low to operate. The target date for completing the project is December 2026.

Gates

Voters overwhelmingly supported a measure that will continue a property tax levy for fire service. The four-year levy, backed by 77% of fire district voters, runs through June 2027 and will raise approximately $272,000. The money will pay for operating costs for the district’s emergency services as well as the upgrade of district vehicles and equipment.

since 1977

The levy is scheduled to raise $65,561 in the 2023-24 fiscal year, $67,200 in 2024-25, $68,880 in 2025-26 and $70,602 in 2026-27.

Lyons

Freres Engineered Wood, the Canyon’s largest employer, continues to represent the region well as it moves into its second 100 years of operations. Freres used its innovative mass plywood panel technology to build a viewing platform at the annual Mass Timber Conference in Portland, participated in a high-profile San Diego exercise testing the seismic safety of 10-story wood buildings and is in the home stretch in its project to produce an all-wood roof for a new terminal at Portland International Airport.

Pastor Rich and our congregation try to put Jesus first, not only by preaching the Bible, but also by being available for the Mill City / Gates community. Everyone needs help sometimes, member or not. Our bus knows how to find kids eager to hear God’s Word and have fun in the process. These short, boisterous folks are our future. Our children’s ministry team instills our love and Jesus’ love for them. VBS is a highlight. Pastor Richard Cole, 503-277-3586, Mt. Horeb Baptist Church, 132 E. Sorbin Ave, Gates.

A TRADITION OF INNOVATION

Established 100 years ago above the Santiam River, we use sustainable practices to manage our private timberlands, to manufacture our engineered wood products, and to utilize the timber we manufacture to best of our ability.

We manufacture a range of products such as veneer, plywood, lumber, and now our own patented product, the Mass Ply Panel (MPP). MPP is a massive veneer based panel up to 12’ wide and 48’ long and is designed to be an environmentally superior, sustainable alternative to concrete and steel in construction.
