Gov.: County OK to enter Phase I Curry officials received confirmation Wednesday night BRIAN WILLIAMS The Pilot
GOLD BEACH — Curry County received approval from the Governor’s Office to enter Phase I of reopening to the state on Friday, May 15. County officials received the good news via a
letter from Gov. Kate Brown at about 9 p.m. Wednesday evening, May 13. More than 25 Oregon counties received approval to enter Phase I. “Thank you for the effort you, your hospitals and your public health experts put into your plan
for meeting the prerequisites demonstrating your county’s preparedness for beginning to lift restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic,” Gov. Brown stated in the letter. “I am pleased to inform you that your county’s application to enter Phase I on May 15 has
been approved.” In the letter Brown listed her goals for reopening “a safe and strong Oregon.” • Minimize hospitalizations and deaths; • Allow people to return to work so they can support themselves and their families;
• Minimize risk to frontline workers; • Avoid overwhelming the health care system; • Protect those at highest risk of severe illness, especially the elderly, those with underlying health conditions, and communities of color; and • Support social/cultural/ spiritual reopening for small groups that preserve

community cohesion and cultural practices. “I want to be clear that reopening does not come without risks,” Brown stated. “With every restriction lifted we know transmission of the virus has the potential to increase. The contact tracing, testing and personal protective equip-

Summer Concerts in the Park was canceled by the American Music Festival Board of Directors. The announcement was made on Tuesday.
Concerts canceled Board says decision based on COVID-19 restrictions
BRIAN WILLIAMS The Pilot
American Music Festival Summer Concerts in the Park at Azalea Park in Brookings has been canceled, joining a growing list of summer events taken out by the COVID-19 pandemic. The announcement was made Tuesday morning, May 12, on Facebook and in a press release. “After nearly a full year of planning, and knowing how much joy these concerts bring to our community, it was a heart-breaking decision to cancel,” stated AMF Board Presi-
dent Les Cohen in the press release. “Our decision was based on the current circumstances regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and the social distancing guidelines enacted recently by Oregon Gov. Kate Brown.” The post and release referenced Gov. Kate Brown when she talked about reopening Oregon on May 7. “Concerts, conventions, festivals, live audience sports won’t be possible until a reliable treatment or prevention is available. It is unknown at this time when this will be. Therefore, all large gatherings should
be canceled or significantly modified through at least September,” Brown said. The free concerts, typically held on Sunday afternoons, attract 400 to 1,200 music fans at each show. The popular free concert series was scheduled to begin on June 7 and conclude on Aug. 30. The final lineup was announced on March 6. This year’s concert series would have featured eight artists, including several returning favorites, and offered a wide variety of music styles. The tribute bands booked this summer
included Billy Joel, Linda Ronstadt, The Beatles and Johnny Cash. Concert goers usually crowd the outdoor amphitheater with lawn chairs, blankets and picnics. “The AMF board of directors express our deep appreciation to all of our concert goers and our sponsors who so generously contribute to the series,” Cohen stated. “We greatly value your support and we wish you and your family and friends good health during these uncertain times.” The American Music Festival See Concerts, Page A7
The U.S. Census Bureau, in coordination with federal, state and local health officials, will begin to drop off 2020 Census questionnaire packets at the front doors of households in Oregon this week. This is done in areas where the majority of households do not receive mail at their physical address. The Census Bureau began hand-delivering census materials on March 15 but suspended all fieldwork for this operation on March 18 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Temporary field staff has been trained to observe all social-distancing protocols and will wear official government-provided personal protective equipment for their safety and the safety of the public. This operation is contactless and follows the most current federal health and safety guidelines. The Census Bureau will deliver 2020 Census invitations and paper questionnaires at the front doors of roughly 5.1 million stateside households and 27,229 households in Oregon. This operation helps to ensure a complete and accurate count of all communities, which helps guide hunSee Census, Page A7

No approval needed If it wasn’t confusing enough, standalone furniture stores, art galleries, jewelry shops and boutiques in Oregon were allowed to reopen May 15 if they can adhere to the guidelines. These businesses did not have to wait for their county’s plan to receive approval in order to open. Retail stores that reopen must limit the number of customers in stores, mandate that employees wear face coverings and frequently clean high-traffic areas. And while it’s not a requirement, the state is asking retailers to encourage their customers to wear face masks as well or take other extra steps like putting in protective barriers.

Further guidance on large events will be provided in the coming months. Gov. Brown emphasized reopening would be done gradually and carefully, following science and data. “But let me be very clear: these choices are not easy; as we reopen parts of our economy, we know and expect that there may be an uptick in new coronavirus cases,” said Gov. Brown. “That’s why we have to be prepared in every single corner of the state because as we’ve seen, an outbreak can occur anywhere.”

gin for approved counties on May 15 and many impacted businesses spent the past week preparing to open under the state COVID-19 guidelines. Curry County sent its 13-page plan to the state on Saturday. It can be viewed online at https://govstatus. egov.com/or-covid-19. The expectation from Curry County officials was that its plan would be approved and was indicating to impacted businesses that they need to be prepared. On Thursday, May 7, Gov. Kate Brown spoke about the plan for rebuilding a safe and strong Oregon, including new guidance for counties and businesses on the phased reopening process. “Today, thanks to millions of Oregonians following the strict physical distancing orders I put in place, I am happy to say these sacrifices have prevented as many as 70,000 COVID-19 infections, and 1,500 hospitalizations in Oregon,” said Gov. Brown. “We are on track in meeting the goals that doctors and public health experts have laid out for us. And that means we now have the opportunity to begin rebuilding a safe and strong Oregon.” Curry County has had four confirmed COVID-19 cases and zero deaths. All four are considered recovered. The last confirmed case in the county was made public on April 18. To enter Phase I, counties must: • Show a decline in COVID-19 or have fewer than 5 hospitalizations; • Have sufficient COVID-19 testing and contact tracing capability; • Establish plans for the isolation and quarantine of new cases; • Have the hospital capacity to handle any surge in COVID-19 cases; • Have enough personal protective equipment for health care workers. Curry County officials stated “target met” and provided information to support this for each of the Phase I musts. “This Reopening Strategy Plan outlines the efforts, actual and planned, of healthcare system partners and Curry County Public Health to respond to the COVID-19 crisis,” the county stated in the plan.

SWOCC gets money for child-care programs JILLIAN WARD The World
COOS COUNTY — Right now, only emergency child-care is available to local parents as a result of the pandemic. But according to Taya Noland, who is the childhood education director at Southwestern Oregon Community College, SWOCC received $1.385 million to support child care on the South Coast through the school’s Southwest Coast’s Baby Promise program, one of the first in the state to
open. Specifically, the grant went to SWOCC’s CARE Connections Child Care Resource and Referral program to implement the Baby Promise. “(Baby Promise) will benefit families by increasing availability and quality of infant and toddler care,” read a press release from the college. “It also will support in -home providers and certified centers in Coos, Curry and western Douglas counties.” The funding will serve two purposes. One will be
to pay for the enrollment of up to 40 infants and toddlers in South Coast child-care programs. “Families whose income is at or below 185% of the federal poverty line are eligible to have the entire cost of child care covered for infants or toddlers in these spots,” read a press release from SWOCC. The second purpose of the funding is to help child-care providers stay in business, which is “especially crucial at this time when child-care providers and other small
businesses have been hard hit by COVID-19 closures. Baby Promise also will help stabilize child care in the region so parents are able to return to work when Oregon reopens,” according to the press release. Although SWOCC was notified in January 2019 that it had been chosen for the grant, it didn’t receive a contact for some time thereafter. Noland said that to have the funds come through now is “perfect timing.” “We are at a point where it’s all hands on deck in
terms of support, and every child-care provider, depending on how long this goes on, is in danger of closing,” she said. “Every time we lose a childcare provider, that’s 50 families who no longer have care.” Noland said the funds will benefit those providers already displaying a specified level of quality and who agree to receive additional training and meet educational standards. “Over the next year, with the current funding we have, we hope to support six to eight child-care pro-

Elk Hoof Disease detected in Del Norte County herd The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has detected the state’s first cases of a potentially crippling hoof disease in two Roosevelt elk from a resident herd in Del Norte County. Treponeme-associated hoof disease (TAHD) — commonly referred to as “elk hoof disease” — can cause deformed, overgrown and otherwise damaged hooves. The lesions and resulting deformities are painful and lead to limping, lameness and even death as observed in other states. When the disease is severe, elk may become too weak to graze, fight off other infections or escape predators. TAHD was first identified in elk from Washington state in the 1990s but much remains unknown about the disease. Currently, there is no known cure or vaccination. TAHD has been documented in elk in Washington,
Oregon and Idaho. Recent detections in Oregon’s Douglas County were previously the closest to California. TAHD gets its name from a bacterium, Treponema sp., that is associated with this disease but other pathogens also may play a role. Scientists at Washington State University who are experienced with TAHD confirmed the disease in the two Roosevelt elk from Del Norte County. It is unknown what impact TAHD may have on elk populations in California or other states. California is home to three subspecies of elk — Rocky Mountain elk, Roosevelt elk and tule elk — that together inhabit approximately 25 percent of the state. In other states, both Rocky Mountain and Roosevelt elk have contracted TAHD. To date, there are no known cases of TAHD among tule elk.
While the disease appears to be highly infectious among elk, there is no evidence that it affects humans. Still, hunters who harvest an elk exhibiting
grams, and those numbers may grow as time goes on.” The funds are available immediately but there is an application process requiring “quite a long period,” Noland said. She said SWOCC has been reaching out to eligible daycares to see what they need and how the program can help, as well as encouraging them to apply for the funding. Families and Early Education Programs interested in participating in the Baby Promise program can call CARE Connections at 541-290-4299.

Dear Abby Friendship ends with flood of social media messages
DEAR ABBY: I had this friend that I met eight months ago at a local boxing gym here in Chicago. We got along extremely well and even hung out a couple of times. However, she left her job at the gym two months later and things started falling apart. I started sending excessive messages on her social media, and she didn’t like it. By the following month, she had enough. She told me I have an unhealthy attachment to her and we would go our separate ways. She blocked me from all social media, and she hasn’t contacted me since. Four months later, I am better, but she is still in my head. I really want to write her a nice and sincere letter and reconcile with her and have her be my friend again. I didn’t know that I was doing something wrong. I have tried reaching out to her multiple times recently via email, to no avail. In the meantime, one of her friends told me she has moved to Texas, which makes it even more heartbreaking. How can I show her I can be her friend again without exhibiting those same “toxic” behaviors? — GUY WITH A WOUNDED HEART
by Abigail Van Buren DEAR GUY: You have already done enough. You have done so much, in fact, that the young woman felt she was being stalked. She has sent you clear signals that she’s not interested in being friends — or anything more — with you. For your own sake, take the hint, leave her alone and, please, learn from this experience so you won’t repeat it with someone else. DEAR ABBY: I am 60, and my husband is 64. We lost everything in the recession. A dear friend helped us get back on our feet, and my son and husband built a home on land we purchased with our last dollar. We have a mortgage and all the bills that come with it. We have no savings, pension or life insurance. I work 40 hours a week, and my husband is partially disabled from an autoimmune disease. My son, who is studying to become an RN, is 33. He lives with us and pays $550 a month, which pays the property taxes. He has slowly brought his girlfriend into our home, whom we like, but she does not contribute financially. I have asked my son for some extra money, and he refused. We will always appreciate how he pitched in and helped us in creating a new home. What can I do without starting a family war? — KEEPING THE
PEACE DEAR KEEPING: It would have been interesting to know what reason your son gave you for his refusal. Continue talking with him about it. Unless the girlfriend is unemployed, she should at least pay for her food and a share of the utilities if she is living in your home. DEAR READERS: This was National Women’s Health Week. Because of the current health crisis, taking care of your health is now more important than ever. Make it a priority. Eat healthy, give yourself the gift of exercise, manage your stress levels, get the sleep you need, and schedule that appointment to see your doctor or dentist as soon as they are seeing patients again. Take steps to eliminate behaviors that put you at risk — smoking, texting while driving and not wearing a seatbelt. Your health is your most precious possession, so please, take care of it.

y this time each spring, the Rogue River estuary tends to have taken its shape for the rest of the year. Most of the major weather events shaping the river typically happen in winter, with rare exceptions. In April 2019, there was a momentary threat of flooding with a rainon-snow event, in which heavy rains and a warm front led to rapid snowmelt in the river’s upper reaches. For people living in Gold Beach, the estuary morphing happens so slowly that year-over-year changes tend to go unnoticed. But many residents do notice changes from their memories of the river 10 or 20 years earlier. They’ll recall bends, shoals, backwaters, deep runs and secret spots that have moved or appear missing. And while individuals may have memories of their ideal river conditions, there isn’t a baseline year when one can state that river contours were exactly as they should be. That’s because the river changes constantly, on its own. A comparison of three aerial views of the estuary, taken at roughly 40-year intervals, shows huge changes in river contours. None of the images represents the ideal state; the combination shows a river in constant flux. The image from 1939 shows two viable channels, two main islands and two additional spits that likely became islands in high water. Forty-one years later, in 1980, the image shows consolidation into one channel with a sharp bend on the river’s south side. In 2019, 39 years on, the major curve is gone and the river now has more backwater habitat, with large sloughs on either side of the channel. Estuaries provide juvenile salmon with shelter, food and a mix of sea and freshwater that allows for a gradual transi-
tion from rivers to the ocean. For many salmonids, adding weight and size before entering the ocean improves their chances of survival and a return to spawn. “One thing we can say is that the Rogue River wild salmon and steelhead runs are doing pretty good compared to rivers elsewhere in the state,” said Steve Mazur, District Fisheries Biologist with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. “As with any population there are average years and there are great years, but in a comparative sense, these stocks are in much better shape. They are more resilient because the in-river habitat is good and getting better. That has to do with managing river flows out of the Rogue’s two big reservoirs, dam removal upstream, habitat improvements on tributaries, and an increasingly healthy, dynamic estuary. Here in the estuary, juvenile fish can find the necessary food and shelter.” This matters because salmon are vital to both the local economy and the local culture. The current river likely has more gravel than was visible in the previous decade, a shift that may be attributable to the removal, beginning in 2009, of four large dams in the upper Rogue basin. But, like everything else with the river, that shift is temporary. “If the goal is a healthy salmon population, gravel bars and large wood are a positive thing,” said Kelly Timchak, Coordinator, Lower Rogue Watershed Council (LRWC). “They offer shallow water and cover, to help juveniles avoid larger predators. The increased surface area along the bottom allows for more abundant insect life – a key source of protein for fish putting on weight before heading out to sea.”

CURRY COASTAL PILOT
Ballots can be dropped off at courthouse, city hall THE PILOT GOLD BEACH — Curry County Clerk Reneé Kolen informs voters that the election processes for the May 19 state primary have been underway for weeks. Ballots for military and overseas voters have already been mailed. The state voters’ pamphlet containing voting information, candidate statements and measure arguments,

a small cancer immunotherapy drug development company that was spun off from Providence Cancer Center in Portland. He relocated to Brookings in 2014 where he served on the Brookings City Council from 2016 through 2019. While a City Councilor, Triglia served as Brookings’ representative on the Oregon Sudden Oak Death Task Force (Core Science Group) formed jointly by State Rep. David Brock Smith and US Senator Jeff Merkley. Triglia was also responsible for Brookings becoming the first city in the state to be recognized as a “Monarch City USA” since he has been involved in the conservation of the West-
should have arrived at every residential address in Oregon April 22-24. The last day to register to vote or to change your party affiliation was April 28. The May 19 election is a primary election. Primaries serve two main purposes. The first is for all voters to be able to cast ballots for candidates for nonpartisan offices like judges and county offices. The second is for voters
registered with a major political party to select their nominees for partisan office like US President, Oregon Secretary of State, Treasurer and Attorney General and legislators at both the state and national level. Those registered as not affiliated with a political party, or registered with a minor party (Constitution, Independent, Libertarian, Pacific Green, Progressive,
Working Families) will receive a ballot that includes only nonpartisan offices. In the May primary, only Democrats registered will be able to vote to choose their nominees for partisan offices, and only registered Republicans will be able to vote to choose their nominees for partisan offices. Ballot packets were mailed between April 29 and May 5. If you did not
receive a ballot packet by Friday, May 5, or need help registering, call the Curry County elections office at 541-247-3297. Due to Senate Bill 861 postage is no longer required to mail a Curry County ballot. Voters can drop their ballot off at a drop site located at the Curry County Courthouse as well as City Hall located in the City of Brookings. If you chose to mail
your ballot it should have been mailed by May 12 to ensure it reaches the election office in time. Information is available online at the Curry County Clerk website or www.oregonvotes.gov. An elector may verify that their ballot has been received by the election office through the Oregon Secretary of State’s website at www.oregonvotes. gov “My Vote.”

Triglia has a strong biological science research background, including several infectious diseases like HIV on which he worked with many well-known professionals in the field during the early days of the HIV crisis. He received his undergraduate bachelor’s in biology from Fordham University and his master’s, also in biology, from Hunter College (C.U.N.Y.) in Manhattan while working in immunology research at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center during the day. He has held several positions in the biotechnology and biopharma industries as well as in academia. He has written over 50 articles and abstracts for scientific meetings and publications both in the USA and abroad. Triglia has traveled to all

swell of support I have been receiving from all corners of the county. I am concerned about the future of Curry County and hope that I get the chance to use my team-building and informed decision-making skills as your next commissioner.
quality, cost-effective services. This would enable us to be better prepared for future health care needs and/ or viral outbreaks. Climate change: Climate change will have a profound influence on Curry County and we need to plan now. This impending crisis is not a partisan issue. Several longtime local fishermen have told me that their situation now is worse than they have experienced in the past; oyster hatcheries are noticing developmental issues like soft shells due to ocean acidification and — right offshore in Brookings — there is a hypoxic/anoxic “dead zone.” Climate change also increases the odds of worsening drought and more severe fire danger for Curry County in the decades ahead.
A: In my opinion, the most important role of any County Commissioner is staying in touch with his/ her constituents, especially before voting on critical or controversial issues facing the county. This seems intuitive, but — in order to govern responsibly — one must first gather the facts and opinions from people with differing viewpoints and different life experiences to understand their perspective. Then, together, we would search for common ground and use that commonality to address the concerns of as many citizens as possible. No elitist “Us vs. Them,” we must strive for unity and civil discourse as much as possible. This is, after all, a nonpartisan office. Of course, County Commissioners are also responsible for establishing and enacting policies, developing and implementing both short- and long-term strategic plans and ensuring that the duties and functions of public officials are public and never tainted by nepotism or cronyism.

Q: Why are you seeking office? A: I have decided to run as a write-in candidate for Curry County Commissioner, Position 3 so that voters will have an alternative choice to incumbent Commissioner Court Boice who is running unopposed to keep his seat. I believe elected officials should serve all constituents; make independent, deliberated decisions; be responsible leaders by dealing with people respectfully, and set an example in leadership. Having served for 3 years on the Brookings City Council from 2016 until 2019, I discovered that I really enjoy public service. Several county residents have asked me to run for office at the county level for a number of different reasons. I have been amazed, thankful for, and humbled by the ground-
Q: What are the top three challenges you see facing Curry County, and what are your proposed solutions to those challenges? A: Financial: We need to ensure that Curry County receives all available funding in order to rebuild and recover from the effects of COVID-19. As County Commissioners, we must fully scrutinize county expenditures and budgets before seeking additional tax money from the citizens of Curry County. It should go without saying that we must seek our constituents’ input in expanding our economy while preserving our environment. Healthcare: We need to perform comprehensive assessments of our current health care services, including emergency transportation, in order to identify what is currently available and how to increase needed,
Q: What would you do differently than the incumbent commissioner(s)? A: First, I have zero intention of running for another office, as the incumbent did two years ago. Second, I believe public officials should lead by example. This means that I would abide by regulations and ordinances and not use county time, money, or cars for personal use. Third, I would continue to deal respectfully with my fellow commissioners, other elected or appointed officials, staff, and my fellow citizens, as I always have. Believe it or not, diversity of opinion is actually a good thing in government, so long as we all remember to keep our eyes on common goals to move our county forward. We are truly all in this together. Q: What do you believe is the most important role of a county commissioner?

Q: How will you conduct your campaign to reach voters and how much money do you plan to spend in this race? A: My campaign has been utilizing social media, e-mails, local newspapers and grassroots supporters across the county to spread the word. I am not soliciting campaign contributions so I am beholden to no one. I personally oppose local candidates accepting funds from out-of-state interests and/or expenditures to their friends and family. I am spending far less than any of the current County Commissioner candidates listed on the Secretary of State’s campaign finance reports.

CURRY COASTAL PILOT
Letters to the Editor Everyone is essential Editor: It’s deeply unfortunate when people with political or philosophical agendas take advantage of a current crisis like this one to spread false or misleading information in support of those agendas. A letter published May 8 claimed -- among other obvious misrepresentations -- that cancer biopsies, stroke care and brain surgeries are examples of “shutting down elective medical care” that will cost lives. Those claims are simply untrue. Cancer testing and brain surgery are considered necessary procedures, not elective, and of course, stroke care is an emergency. Our area healthcare facilities and emergency rooms have not been overwhelmed by virus patients as have facilities elsewhere so that care remains accessible. The greater risk for cancer patients, for example, is COVID-19 itself, not the unavailability of care. Patients can still access treatment, testing and scans as before, but the spread of the virus and its documented consequences for those with compromised immune systems can make that access downright scary, even for those of us in remission. The best thing Oregon can do for those with health challenges is to continue to take every measure possible to prevent this virus from spreading. The author of that letter may coldly dismiss “the number of people with weak immune systems who will die” as inevitable, but every single one of those people is considered supremely valuable and utterly irreplaceable to those who love and cherish them, and every single life should be considered as we assess the risk/ reward of each step we take toward reopening our county and state. As one of the Reopen Oregon protest signs declared, “Everyone is Essential.” Even those who don’t yell and wave flags. Mike Gaynes Harbor
Be considerate and wear a mask Editor: As of this writing, only .0094% in Curry County has been tested for COVID-19. The lack of testing is a national disgrace. There is no cure or vaccine — only prevention from exposure. COVID-19 is an asymptotic, highly contagious virus spreading globally. CDC has recommended wearing a mask or scarf covering your mouth and nose when out in public. They are the best way to prevent you from spreading the virus to others, not others from spreading it to you. It’s called being considerate of others. As reported in our local newspaper and on Facebook the reopen Oregon rallies here in Curry County show pictures of participants without scarves or
masks. I cringe at the lack of concern being displayed to others and to the community. You have a right to protest and even openly carry guns. But you should think about who you are potentially spreading a virus to at the rally and when you return home. Taking precautions as recommended will help businesses open sooner. Vikki Nuss Brookings

Tips to help with mental health
Christian Community Church
Editor: May is Mental Health Awareness Month. With schools closed for the remainder of the school year, we fully recognize the added stress caused by adding schoolwork into your already busy days. Recognizing the impact of social distancing requirements and staying home with our kids, we thought we would offer mindfulness hints for the entire family. Just like the grown-ups in their lives, your children will likely experience some big emotions during this isolated time away from their teachers and friends at school. Remember, when practicing mindfulness activities with kids, it will almost never go as planned. That’s OK! Here are some tips provided by Stopbreathethink.com that might help things go more smoothly: Check in every day with yourself and your family. Encourage your family at mealtime or before bed to share how they are feeling mentally, physically, and emotionally. Approach mindfulness with openness and curiosity. While it might seem like there’s a “right” way to practice mindfulness, the good news is that there’s actually no way to get it wrong! The experience is different for everyone. Notice how you feel in the moment without necessarily trying to change anything or judge what you observe. You may feel more settled after an activity; you also may not. Both are normal and OK. Learn to be with whatever’s happening. With mindfulness, it can be tempting to “fix” a problem, yet we’re here to remind you to “let go” of any agendas or goals. It’s actually more supportive to learn how to be kind and compassionate with yourself — especially with whatever thoughts or feelings that come up — and the more you can accept whatever is happening wholeheartedly in moments of mindfulness, the more you can bring that approach to all experiences in your life.

Herzog From A1
sweetheart. They have been married for 44 years. They raised three kids and are now grandparents. Herzog was a carpenter with South Coast Lumber. In the early 80s, he went to work with UPS. He spent 30 years with UPS and retired in 2012. He currently manages two affordable housing units for Good Samaritan Society and has been on the Coos-Curry Electric Cooperative board for 14 years. Q: Why are you seeking office? A: To me it’s just timing. It’s a good time. I ran years ago toward the end of working at UPS. There were a bunch of us. I didn’t win and didn’t campaign hard. I watch what’s going on in my county. To tell you the truth I’ve put this all in the Lord’s hands and I don’t want to sound super Christian but if the Lord wants me to have this position he will put me there so I am trusting in him. I’m going to do my part also but my faith is a big part of it. My wife and I are very involved in our church, Calvary Heritage, here in town. I’m happy here at my affordable housing job. If the folks want me to serve them I will. I’ll serve them because I feel it’s his timing, not mine. Not being in that seat I don’t know all of the problems. I know that healthcare is one, budget is always a concern, controlling spending. Since my job right now is affordable housing that is a big concern that I have. I have over 70 folks on my waitlist for HUD. The turnover for that right now is 3-4 years. Q: What are the top three challenges you see facing Curry County, and what are your proposed solutions to those challenges? A: Try to control spending. I believe in Curry

County we are doing pretty good. We have a brand new hospital in Gold Beach. I’m just a regular guy who goes to work and solves problems in a timely fashion. I don’t have a silver bullet. I think I could bring unity to the departments. Since we lost the timber funds years ago with the spotted owl it’s not been good. There is a budget shortfall every year. Q: What do you think would be the most important role of a county commissioner? A: Quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger is a key and bring the county together, the departments. Show up, roll up my sleeves and work. Q: How will you conduct your campaign to reach voters and how much money do you plan to spend in this race? Yes, I’ve spent $1,000 of my own money. It’s hard for me to ask for money. So I think preliminary I’m going to do it out of pocket. I have a website. Q: You talked about controlling spending. Are there any costs that you see in particular that are troubling to you? A: I just know that we are always in a shortfall and trying to borrow from the road funds. And now they don’t even have to pay it back. As soon as the timber receipts went away. We can’t pass a property tax measure. Q: What would you think is the next best way to bring Curry County back? A: There is money out there in grants. I don’t know a lot about grants. I know there are grants. I think our roads dept. And the cities do a lot of grants. That might be an avenue for health care. Tourism is key. It’s a revenue stream that could be leveraged for sure.

Governor Kate Brown statement on the state budget PORTLAND — Governor Kate Brown issued the following statement Monday, May 11, on the state budget and upcoming May revenue forecast: “One of the many challenging results of the COVID-19 pandemic is the dramatic impact on our economy. With many Oregon businesses restricted or shut down, travel suspended and jobs lost, we expect the revenue that we receive to fund state services will also be significantly reduced,”
said Governor Brown. “We anticipate a significant budget impact in the state revenue forecast coming on May 20, which will lead to some really difficult decisions. Our early discussions indicated this impact could be a reduction of $3 billion for the current budget period. We are exploring all available options to weather this recession, and I have directed state agencies to prepare prioritized reduction plans equaling a 17 percent reduction for the upcoming

fiscal year as a planning exercise to explore all options. We haven’t made any final decisions, and the agency plans serve as important information gathering at this point. We know a potential cut of this magnitude would be extremely drastic. “While these are uncer-
tain times, one thing is clear: state employees are working many long hours to keep Oregonians safe and secure during this pandemic. In this time of crisis, Oregonians rely on state services more than ever, and cutting critical state services will be a last resort.”

Megson From A1
son worked to pass bills to help funding and resources for ports, farm to school, good neighbor authority, the Brookings emergency room, SANE nurses and workforce housing. Megson is committed to the idea of utilizing the county’s natural beauty and resources while sustaining them responsibly and productively through economic development. Q: Why are you seeking office? A: From the moment I got here, I fell in love with this county. I knew I wanted to stay here the rest of my life. I had some other jobs, but when I was hired to be the Administrative Assistant to the Curry County Board of Commissioners, it was like finding the right key for the right lock — all my prior experience, all of my talents suddenly found an avenue in which the purpose matched the direction and energy. So, when I was asked to become the Chief of Staff for Representative David Brock Smith it was a tough decision because I did not want to move away from Curry County, but I knew that I could help our home
even more as part of that team. We found a great balance; during sessions, I would work at the Capitol Building throughout the week and come back home every weekend. In the interim, nearly all of my work is through digital mediums and I only had to go to Salem for various short legislative days. I was able to apply my enthusiasm for Curry at the state level and since have continuously worked hard to advocate for our needs on things like workforce housing, funding for port projects, the Rogue River sediment study, sexual assault nurses and the Brookings emergency room — just to name a few. There were also many times at the State where I would fight against undue burden upon our rural area as well as individual rights. Health problems within the family have now made it necessary to cut back my numerous lengthy trips to Salem. With the election coming, I know that the best application of my experience, skillset and passion would be as a County Commissioner. I did not want to run “against” anyone, I wanted to run “for” a well-balanced team with different complementary interests and fortes. I talked to both commis-
sioners that would be up for election. Court Boice had already filed for his seat and was as enthusiastic as ever to continue his work. He was OK with continuing to handle most of the things that would require travel, such as AOC. When I asked Sue Gold, she was noncommittal and hadn’t decided if she wanted to serve again in that capacity. After hearing that, I had decided that I was going to file for her seat and did discuss it with her. With the other two Commissioners and myself, the right mix of abilities would come together as a group that not only deeply cares about our home but present the county with three commissioners willing to put in the work needed. This is all to say that my reason for running is not a knee-jerk decision. My life, my work, and well-researched reasoning were applied to every step before I signed that paper at the Clerk’s office. Q: What are the top three challenges you see facing Curry County, and what are your proposed solutions to those challenges? A: That’s a really tough question because things can turn on a dime and modify what needs our immediate attention. As an example,

who would have imagined the current COVID-19 dilemma? What it has done is highlight that the issues that I wanted to concentrate on are going to need some vigorous work. First, our communications infrastructure is sorely lacking. Being able to work off-site or allow our children the option to learn from home requires that our internet service and cell phone coverage is vastly expanded. I was on a County task force when the fiber loop had been installed in the County. Charter had even come to the table with additional help to try to connect residents. Utilizing those assets along with applying funds that will be made available and directed toward broadband, we can get this done. Second, our economic development has always been a need but will now be of the utmost importance with so many of our businesses devastatingly affected by the coronavirus. Sadly, many of the programs created to help businesses and employees had very rough starts. The result was a delayed receipt of funds or sometimes not at all. Supporting local, finding customers for our local products, and enticing new business starts will need to be a focus in everyone’s discussions. Third would be workforce housing. Our smaller
number of homes and limited availability of buildable land, combined with the high percentage of vacation homes and shortterm rental ownership is making it extremely hard for all the people that provide the needed services in our communities to actually live in them. It has been a passion of mine and something that I worked on at the State (2017 HB 2377) even before I went to work for the Representative. That bill is only one piece of a very large puzzle and has not yet been implemented in the county, but I plan to help with that and maybe even get this task done before I am sworn in. Q: What would you do differently than the incumbent commissioner(s)? A: I’ll address what I will do as a commissioner in the next question and leave it for the voters to decide what the differences are. My goal is to obtain the best team for the county to move forward. Q: What do you believe is the most important role of a county commissioner? A: Being a County Commissioner is much more than showing up to a weekly meeting. You’ve got to be informed, do your research, and be knowledgeable and prepared as you come to the table to avoid requiring multiple additional meetings. I think that the ideas, information provided and items on the agenda are a direct reflection of how hard a commissioner works. A commissioner needs to be engaged. Various organizations, other governmental entities, and especially their liaison departments are all groups that need to have continuous interaction in order to work together and understand what actions may be needed. All actions taken should meet the criteria of not only “is this good
for the entire county?” but also “are we protecting the rights of all of our residents?” No governmental position should ever become so comfortable and confident with their actions that they lose sight of the effects those decisions have over individual residents. My life experiences range from broke and homeless to well-providing for my family as a single mother. It has blessed me with the ability to see many different situations that apply to so many of the people in this county, and they’ll not be forgotten in every vote I make. Q: How will you conduct your campaign to reach voters and how much money do you plan to spend in this race? A: I filed a committee with the Secretary of State to report all my election donations and spending on OreStar within days of my decisions to file. So far, I’m the only candidate for this position to do so. Right now, expectations are that around $5,000 will be spent for the entire campaign. I’ve included myself In the Voters’ Pamphlet and tried to help people understand the experience and continuous work for the benefit of Curry County that I bring to the table. I have filled out numerous questionnaires and made many posts on social media. Until recently, the posts were mostly concerning helpful information during the stressful time of the coronavirus, but I am aware of the need to include direct asks of the voters to support me on their ballot. Yard signs have recently gone up and I am blessed with people displaying them at their homes and businesses. Campaigning during this time has been unlike any others in my life since I am not afforded the opportunity to knock on doors and hear face-to-face the concerns of my neighbors in the entire county.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE Christina Marie Derwey CVPB-2020-7009 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Christina Marie Derwey A Petition for Probate has been filed by Kathryn M. Derwey, in the Superior Court of California, County of Del Norte. The petition for probate requests that Kathryn M. Derwey be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This Authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 6/5/2020 Time: 10:00am Dept.: 2 Address of the Court: 450 H Street Crescent City, CA 95531 If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

The Del Norte County EFSP Local Board has been awarded $11,535 in Phase 37 and $16,446 in CARES funding for a total of $27,981 to supplement emergency food and shelter programs in the county. The award was made by a National Board that is chaired by the U. S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency and consists of representatives from American Red Cross; Catholic Charities, USA; National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA; The Jewish Federations of North America, The Salvation Army; and, United Way Worldwide. The Board is charged to distribute funds appropriated by Congress to help expand the capacity of food and shelter programs in high-need areas around the country. A Local Board made up of representatives from local agencies representing emergency services will determine how the funds awarded to Del Norte County are to be distributed among the emergency food and shelter programs run by local service agencies. The Local Board is responsible for selecting agencies to receive these funds and any additional funds made available under these phases of the program. Under the terms of the grant from the National Board, local agencies chosen to receive funds must: 1) be 501(c)3 private non-profits or units of government, 2) be eligible to receive Federal funds, 3) have an accounting system, 4) practice nondiscrimination, 5) have demonstrated the capability to deliver emergency food and/or shelter programs, and 6) if they are a private nonprofit organization, have a voluntary board. Qualifying agencies are urged to apply. Del Norte County EFSP has distributed Emergency Food and Shelter funds previously to Rural Human Services, DORCAS (Seventh Day Adventist Church), Our Daily Bread Ministries, and Pacific Pantry. Qualifying organizations interested in applying for EFSP funds can email Kiley Anderson-Thompson (kthompson@dncsc1) for an application.
