NOTICE OF RESEARCH STUDY JULY 14 - 22 A team of researchers will be visiting the Coos Bay area during July 14-22 to study public perceptions of potential offshore wind development off the coast of Maine. The goal of this research is to better understand residents’ views about offshore wind and other energy developments, including potential local benefits and impacts. Our findings will help local public officials, government agencies, and private organizations do a better job of addressing the concerns of local-area residents. Oregon State University and the Pacific Marine Energy Center are conducting this study with support provided by the U.S. Department of Energy. The team will be conducting in-person surveys. They have selected a scientific random sample of 700 households in the towns of Coos Bay, North Bend, Charleston, and Bar View. The team of researchers will be wearing navy blue polos with university name tags and will be handing out paper surveys to the selected households, then arranging with residents for a later time to pick them up. Residents will be made aware that participation is completely voluntary. Furthermore, participants’ names are not recorded, and address records will be destroyed as soon as they are done contacting sampled households. The Institutional Review Board at OSU has reviewed and approved of this research. If you have questions related to your rights or about any consequences you might experience as a possible study participant, you may contact the OSU IRB administrator at (541)737-8008, or email [email protected], and ask about research protocol HE-2024-857. If you have questions or concerns about this study, please free to get in touch with the primary investigators by e-mail ([email protected]) or phone (541)737-2078, or visit our webpage to learn more https://www.pmec.us/offshore

MAYOR'S MESSAGE As we approach Independence Day, I invite all of Coos Bay to come together in celebration—not only of our nation’s founding, but of the strength and resilience that continues to define our community. The Fourth of July is a time to reflect on the values that gave rise to this country: freedom, unity, and a deep commitment to building a better future. These values remain just as relevant today, especially as together, we face uncertainties across the nation and around the world. In times like these, our greatest strength lies in what we do right here at home - in how we show up for one another, support local efforts, and build lasting connections that strengthen the fabric of our city. Coos Bay’s holiday weekend will be filled with opportunities to gather and celebrate together. From the downtown festivities and family activities available in Mingus Park (hosted by the Coos Bay Downtown Association) to the vibrant fireworks over the bay, there’s something for everyone. These moments—sharing a laugh with neighbors, enjoying the activities in Mingus Park, participating in the Firecracker Run (a South Coast Running Club event), watching children light up with joy—are powerful reminders of what it means to be part of a thriving community. Let’s take pride not only in our nation’s independence, but also in the local spirit that makes Coos Bay a place where people care, create, and contribute. By investing our energy, kindness, and creativity into our city, we honor the ideals of the holiday in the most meaningful way possible. On behalf of the City of Coos Bay, I wish you and your friends and family a fun-filled and safe Independence Day. Let’s celebrate what unites us and continue working together to make a difference - right here at home -Joe Benetti, Mayor of Coos Bay
