The following comments were contributed at a community celebration and inauguration gala for the city's new mayor, Sue Smith, January 8, 2005. WHAT IS YOUR DREAM FOR YACHATS? • A solid infrastructure to support the community balanced with support and value of all of us who make Yachats a beautiful and special place to live. • To live here forever! Meet new friends like Leslie and Nancy and Shasta. • Maintain the village feel for ALL (residents and visitors alike); to enjoy the natural beauty • Regenerate people!!
• Inter-generational focus • Education becomes a priority for EVERYONE!! • Keep the "special character" of our village. We need an ordinance to regulate the type of constructions that "viciously" change the original beauty of the dream place which is Yachats. • A community garden at the Commons • A labyrinth • Volunteer skills bank • South Yachats walking trail • Celebrating youth; encouraging young families • Keep the small town feeling • "I love it just the way it is!" • A wailing wall • A place folks can afford to stay • More "coastal comfy" ---- less "resorty" • A Subway • Family friendly • Earth Day & Ocean Day '05 • More parties like this! • Yes!! • Yachats, Yachats .........Paradise and praise, the Rain the Storms and the Friendliness of the people living here. • Dream Workshop for Yachats Community 3-4 times a year • Conflict Resolution training (facilitated practice ) two times a year. • At the Commons: • Monthly family potluck/movie night • Monthly "film buff" potluck night
