Wayfinding Plan Review

An outline of our latest strategy meeting is posted below.


Oceanside 'Wayfinding Plan' Outline

--Create a Welcoming streetscape

--Consider streetscape clutter

--Make an inventory of existing signage


Projects in Wayfinding:


1) Gateway (we will be meeting shortly with County Staff to agree on final placement of the Oceanside entry signs and construction materials)

2) Directional signage--TBD future

3) Interpretive--Welcome kiosk, beach safety, indigenous story (located in both the lower and upper parking lots)

4) Interpretive panels--History and today, parking lot edge, looking out to the beach

    non intrusive of views, angels, exciting graphics and photos (the team will be looking to engage the talents of local designers to present to the County Staff for approval and fabrication) 

note: Signage along sidewalk ways can also tell a story and be part of a future interpretive program

Help Us Find the Potholes and Stormwater Drains Put on your walking shoes and join the fun. We’re launching a community‑wide treasure hunt to locate potholes and stormwater drains that need attention. Every “find” helps improve safety and supports our partnership with Tillamook County Public Works. How to Play See it! Spot a pothole or stormwater drain that needs maintenance. Snap it! Take a clear photo and note the nearest street names or landmarks. Report it! Email your photo and location to: david@daviddulaney.com Track it! Visit https://www.oceansideactionpartnership.org/roads-and-parking to view the live map and watch the community’s progress. Contest Rules Each verified pothole or stormwater drain report earns 1 ticket . Size doesn’t matter—every pothole counts. Credit goes to the first person to report each location. Your total number of verified finds equals your total number of tickets. All tickets will be placed into a drawing at the next OAP community event. Prizes 10 winning tickets will be drawn. Participants can win multiple prizes . Prizes include OAP sweatshirts, T‑shirts, and posters . A Grand Prize will be awarded to the participant with the most verified finds . Safety First Please be safe and responsible when exploring and photographing. Follow general safety guidelines at all times—stay aware of traffic, weather, and your surroundings. Contest Deadline The treasure hunt officially ends at midnight on April 30, 2026 . What Happens Next The OAP Roads/Parking Team will use the completed maps in partnership with Tillamook County Public Works . The County will train our volunteers in pothole analysis and repair techniques and provide materials. Our volunteers will supply the labor—another example of Oceanside neighbors working together.
