Night work will begin on the D-River Bridge the week of February 4. This means that work is being done on the bridge deck at night. There will be single lane closures, and traffic will be flagged through the area Monday – Thursday evenings between 7 p.m. and 5 a.m. the next morning. Nearby businesses will be accessible at all times, with “Business Access” signs posted near entrances. This schedule will continue until Memorial Day. There will be no night work or lane closures at D-River Bridge between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Work will begin on Schooner Creek Bridge in early summer. This project will protect and improve these U.S. 101 bridges that have deteriorated from salt air. Both bridges are receiving repairs to damaged concrete, replacement of bridge rails, strengthening of the bridge structure, and cathodic protection from the elements. For more information click here.

A Big Thank You and Hello:
First and foremost, I would like to personally thank the community of Lincoln City for selecting me as your incoming Director of Planning and Community Development, I am very excited to work the next couple months with retiring Director Richard Townsend to get up to date on current legislation, planning programs, and ongoing development projects.
I come to Lincoln City from my hometown of Gig Harbor, Washington. I earned my Bachelors in Urban Studies from the University of Washington – Tacoma and I am currently completing my Executive Masters in Public Administration at the University of Washington – Evans School. My education and 11+ years of Land Use Planning prepared me for my civil servant roles. I am very excited to bring this experience and education to assist Lincoln City in meeting your goals, vision, and needs.
I strongly value customer service, at any time should you have any questions or concerns regarding land use, or desire to provide your input on projects – do not hesitate to reach out to me. I can be reached at lsehmel@lincolncity.org or via telephone at (541)996-1228.
The City of Lincoln City’s Senior Planner, Debra Martzhan Nicholson and Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Mark Nicholson have officially retired.
Debra served our community for almost 10 years, guiding influential projects all while establishing and maintaining essential relationships throughout the City. Her knowledge of the City and dedication to improving our City will be missed.
Mark previously served as the City’s Finance Director for 5 years. He retired from the City as the Emergency Operations Coordinator for the past 5 years. Mark developed and lead the City’s emergency management program in all phases, including mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery.
