Election Coverage
November election ballots to be mailed out this week T
Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer
he Tillamook County Clerk’s Office gave an election update during a Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, Oct. 7. County Clerk Tassi O’Neal said Oregon has 20 years under its belt for being a Vote By Mail state. The ballots for the Nov. 3 general election will be mailed out Wednesday, Oct. 14. Military and foreign ballots go out 45 days before the election, as required by law. Other people who may be out of town when the ballots are mailed out can make an appointment to get an absentee ballot. If someone comes in this week, they may receive two ballots. “They can only vote on one ballot,” O’Neal said. “When their first ballot was issued, if they come in
this week and request an absentee ballot, the original ballot gets inactivated and the new ballot gets activated.” If you need to register to vote, go to www.oregonvotes.org and click My Vote. “Voter pamphlets for our area should be going out today through the 9th,” O’Neal said during the Oct. 7 meeting. O’Neal said every residence will receive a voter’s pamphlet. “If you’ve not received your ballot by Oct. 23, please contact our office,” O’Neal said. “We’ll be happy to see if there’s an issue.” Ballot dropboxes will be listed on the ballots, O’Neal added. The Tillamook County Library dropbox in Tillamook is now 24 hours. “We have also added the ballot dropbox on the left hand doors of the courthouse for convenience,” O’Neal said. “[People] can put
their tax statements in there.” The courthouse dropbox is the only box you can put your tax statements in. Remember to sign your ballot envelope, O’Neal added. The clerk’s office goes to the post office as close to 8 p.m. as possible to collect ballots. Postage is now paid on the ballots. O’Neal recommends mailing your ballot before Oc.t 27 in order for the clerk’s office to receive them by Election Day. You can put your ballot in a ballot dropbox through Nov. 3. You can also call the county clerk’s office with any questions. The office can be reached at 503842-3402 or by email at clerk@ co.tillamook.or.us

65
Occupation: Mayor of Tillamook
Education: Associate’s Degree
Education: Bachelor’s degree, Elementary Education, Bemidji State College
Family: Married with two daughters and one granddaughter
Family: Husband Tom (deceased), five children Why are you running for state representative District 32? As a nonpartisan mayor for the last 10 years, I’ve reached out to our legislators of both parties to advocate for my community. Over the last two years, I watched as our legislator completely ignored us. Despite numerous times inviting her to learn about us, our businesses and our needs, I was always rebuffed. Then I watched as that legislator voted for legislation that would destroy the jobs and families in the community I’ve loved and fought for during my 50 years here. I knew we deserved better representation, and with my nearly 20 years experience as a nonpartisan local leader, I believe that I’m the right person to bring our common sense to Salem. I want to ensure our farmers, loggers, truckers and fishermen have their jobs protected. I want to ensure our law enforcement officers are fully funded. I want to fully fund schools FIRST. That’s common sense. What experience/skills do you have that makes you the best candidate? I spent 30 years as a public school teacher, as well as a salary negotiator for our teachers. I don’t just understand the needs of our teachers and students because of some partisan talking points. I watched it for three decades. I bought school supplies for students who couldn’t afford them. I bought food for students because I knew they weren’t being fed at home. Those experiences are burned in my memory and I will remember them when I get to Salem. I also spent nearly 15 years as a small business owner, so I know the daily challenges that

they face. For the last two decades, I’ve served as a nonpartisan city councilor and mayor. I understand the challenges of our communities and have worked for solutions without regard to party. I’ve also served at the state level on committees on housing and transportation. What challenges do you see facing District 32 and how will you overcome those challenges? We need to ensure that broadband internet service is available to everyone. While it’s not an issue in Portland or Eugene, it’s a big issue in rural Oregon. That’s why I’ve used my relationships in the legislature to already propose a bill for the 2021 Legislative Session to provide funding for broadband internet expansion in counties with populations under 100,000. With so much of school and work now being done virtually, this is an immediate need. Housing is another pressing need. We cannot grow our businesses unless we have a place for employees to live. This is an issue that will require state, local and federal partnerships to reduce bureaucracy and costs while also ensuring our small districts, cities and counties have the funds they need to provide system maintenance and health. These are nonpartisan issues that need an experienced, nonpartisan leader to make happen.
Why are you running for State Representative District 32? I am running because I will be a voice for our rural communities, working families and small businesses. I know many people in our district are struggling. I will fight for everyone to be able to put food on the table, a roof over their heads, fully funded schools, good healthcare and opportunity to own a small business no matter who you are or the challenges you have faced. I moved here 30 years ago as a single mom and worked two jobs, making hard decisions between putting food on the table and taking my girls to the doctor. A few years later I was hired for a union job, got healthcare and eventually became a small business owner. The union didn’t just offer me security but an opportunity to become an advocate for people in our community. This experience motivated me to continue my advocacy on the transportation board. What experience/skills do you have that makes you the best candidate? A supporter recently said he is voting for me because I am “an everyday folk just like him”. I have lived in rural Oregon for most of my life. I have tended bars, worked on fishing boats, and volunteered as an EMT. I have worked in the Clatsop County criminal justice system for 23 years while owning a small business for 20 of those years. While chair of the Sunset Empire Transportation board, I advocated for better transportation in our community. I have weathered this pandemic
as a small business owner. As a 13 year union leader, I bargained for better pay and benefits for families in HD 32 and I know how to bring everyone to the table, compromise and move forward on the difficult issues. Our district is divided right now and I want to unite to bring all of our voices to Salem. What challenges do you see facing District 32 and how will you overcome those challenges? District 32 is suffering from a lack of affordable housing, making Clatsop County number one per capita of people experiencing homelessness. We also have a lack of affordable and accessible health care, which includes mental health care and care for our veterans. We need to incentivize doctors coming to the district regularly so we don’t have to travel for care. Our schools need to be fully funded, and with learning online, we need to push for increased broadband access. When I get to Salem, there are going to be tough budget decisions being made. I will advocate to make sure our rural community is getting funding to address the lack of affordable housing and healthcare and I will ensure our schools and small businesses get the support they need.
Tillamook Police Chief Wright warns candidates about campaign sign codes E
Terry Wright Tillamook Police Chief
very political season we end up handling complaints and issues in regards to political signs. There are usually one or two candidates, or their support, that violate sign requirements. Usually a call or contact is all that is needed to explain the rules and almost everyone is understanding and polite, even in a charged election period. Each geographical government jurisdiction, city, county or state, can set their own rules but most,
especially on rule, is pretty standard statewide. The Tillamook City Council, because of complaints and other issues a couple of years ago, set a size limit for signs. They are the governing body for the city and they have expectation that, once passed, these rules will be enforced. We try to use spirit of the law when possible, with ordinance enforcement, especially if it involves mere inches, but once a candidate indicates otherwise, we will then have to strictly enforce the city code. The code section is 153.053 of
the zoning code. Political signs are considered temporary signs and are located in 153.053 (14) (H). Political signs are signs which support or oppose ballot measures, persons running for political office, and other issues subject to a vote by the public may be allowed, subject to the following: 1) Approval by the owner of the property on which the sign is posted. 2) Setbacks: Such signs may be located within the required setback area of the district, provided they are situated in a manner so
as not to adversely affect safety, corner vision, or other similar conditions. 3) Size: Signs shall not exceed 16 square feet in size, as viewed from one direction. 4) Time Limits: All such signs shall be removed within one week after the election for which the sign is posted. 5) In addition, as a guideline and further nuisance ordinance violation, no signs shall be placed in any right of way. So persons further understand,

for sheriff of Tillamook County? There is a need for a change... a need for fresh perspective and fresh leadership. Leadership whose focus is what’s best for the sheriff’s office and the county. As times move forward and changes are inevitable, I want the sheriff’s office to be the leading edge of forward and positive progress. I possess the passion and knowledge to best adapt the office as we move forward.

Board and enjoy being involved in the community and being part of this team. I am a certified instructor in multiple areas and have a passion for being a part of recruit development and this allows me the opportunity to be a part time instructor with DPSST. I am in the middle of my career, which gives me the experience to be sheriff as well as the time to see things through. What is the biggest issue you want to fix in the department? Fair and equal treatment of all staff members will be a huge part of what I would address. When I started at the sheriff’s office, there was a very strong bond between coworkers, which gave us a family atmosphere. This positive environment promoted healthy working conditions, which increases
productivity and creates a high level of service to the public. The corrections division would be another strong focus as staff hiring and employee retention continue to be an issue. Inconsistencies seem to be prevalent as well, and all this creates low morale. What are your goals for the sheriff’s dept. over the next 4 years? I have many goals and ideas, far more than I am able to list here. Some highlighted ideas would be my hope to reestablish the Reserve Program, the Tactical Team, the Traffic Enforcement position, and the Civil Deputy position. All of these once existed and were valuable tools but unfortunately are no longer a part of the sheriff’s office. Another is to strengthen the relationship with the public we serve through face-to-face contacts, press releases, social media posts, and town hall style meetings. I have always believed in positive, proactive policing and this will be another focus of mine.

cable project. Kevin Salvadori, director of Network Investments at Facebook, said Facebook would be a part of the Tillamook County community for a long period of time. He spoke about the April incident when the drill hit hard rock and the drill bit broke. Nikki Payne of Environmental Resources Management (ERM) said an independent hazard analysis was prepared regarding the drill break in order to evaluate agency and the public’s questions and requests. A local geologist also conducted a site visit. “We also independently verified the depth of materials based on our own review of the telemetric data that was recorded over the drilling activity,” Payne said. “We also reviewed the mud report.”
With this info, ERM conducted a toxicology analysis, Payne added. They also assessed the potential impacts of the remaining materials. “This type of equipment is commonly used for utility projects, both on and offshore,” Payne said of Horizontal Direction Drilling (HDD). “In the subsea cable industry, this equipment is used to install bore pipes in which cables are brought to shore for connectivity purposes.” The bore pipe is installed at an angle. In this case, the desired depth was 70 feet, which was where most of the pipe was at when the break occurred. Drillers were able to retrieve the bore pipe and 240 feet of steel bore casing. Payne said there are cur-

County at 51 confirmed COVID-19 cases Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer Tillamook County Community Health Centers Administrator Marlene Putman said as of Oct. 9, the county is at 51 positive cases, with four new confirmed positive cases this week and four new presumptive cases, bringing the county to a total of 61 cases. According to the health center, there are 10 presumptive cases total with 51 positive tests completed, according to Oregon Health Authority.

Recovery options included HDD drilling and dredging. For dredging, in order to remove the materials, a barge crane would need to excavate the seafloor to that depth, Payne added. A diver with a rock hammer would attempt to remove the drill bit. The activity would take at least two months. “Regarding the option of using HDD recovery, this would require drilling on the exact drill path that was drilled earlier this year and attempting to hit a 6 inch target from 500 feet away,” Payne said. “The drilling company called this nearly impossible.” According to the analysis, the potential recovery options would be infeasible. “Based on input from the community, we’re working

People can find other flu vaccine locations at https:// tillamookchc.org/healthservices-clinics/flu-clinics/ Putman said there are two options for COVID-19 testing that are coming to the county. The health center had ordered the rapid testing last month but has not received it. Other testing kits are on their way from the state. “We should be receiving those, confirmed with the state, in days,” Putman said. “We’ll also share those with Rinehart Clinic and Adventist Health after we receive them.”
with a local landscaping company and will restore Lot 3200 using native plants that are wind-tolerant and erosion-controlling,” Salvadori said. “It should look more beautiful than it has in years.” Salvadori said Facebook’s intent is to resume construction in January. Payne said ERM were provided telemetric data from the project. For this project, there is a mud engineer and ERM has reviewed all of the mud reports from the start of the project. Facebook reported the drill break to the county within a week of the incident, Salvadori said. He said they could have done a better job communicating the incident more broadly but wanted to do a proper analysis first. ERM’s report concludes that mud is not migrating from the seafloor. There was no evidence of release that would have warranted immediate monitoring. The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners approved a restrictive covenant on Sept. 23. This prohibits the installation of future subsea cables on the residential site.
The Oregon Department of State Lands has opened a public review and comment period for Edge Cable Holdings LLC’s, a subcontractor for Facebook, encroachment easement application. The easement would allow the abandoned equipment to remain beneath the seafloor. The equipment includes approximately 1,100 feet of drill pipe, a drill tip, two tools for drill steering and tracking, and approximately 6,500 gallons of drilling fluid. The public review and comment period closes at 5 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5. Comments must be received by this day and time to be considered. Comments may be submitted: • Via the online comment form here. • By email to Blake Helm, blake.helm@dsl.state.or.us • By postal mail to WWC Comments, Oregon Department of State Lands, 775 Summer St. N.E., Ste 100, Salem, OR 97301

Person(s) running for an elected office almost always have nothing but best interest of the position, function, and community they want to represent and bring positive energy, enthusiasm, excitement and effort to the position once elected.

in a while, a candidate does not understand or does not make the effort to follow rules everyone has to follow. Anyone can call or meet with me to go over restrictions, rules and even ideas to best utilize the process for advertising with signs in the city, be it political, special event or even garage sale signs. This city prides itself on not having signs posted all over, unlike other cities.

Tales from the Library

Letters to the editor
A new pool for Nehalem – Is $9 million really necessary?
A crucial vote is coming up for the residents of the North County Recreation District. The building of a new pool in Nehalem has been discussed for 20 plus years. The old pool has maintenance issues, is smaller than many would like and is not ADA compliant. However, it is PAID FOR. Everyone in the district would LOVE to have a new pool but the cost for this endeavor has steadily risen from $3 million to 4,5,6, and now $9 million dollars. We are a very diverse, yet small taxing district from north of Manzanita all the way south to Brighton and the rural farm area out Hwy. 53. Affordable housing, family wage employment and even
food stability is an issue for many families in our area. A modest new pool facility would be embraced by most constituents, but this new grand design is an expense that may at some point in the future cause great financial distress to our neighbors on fixed incomes who risk being taxed out of their own homes. The bond measure application was turned in to the county clerk on August 12th. Not one word was mentioned to the public until a Facebook post on September 30th. Why the seven week delay? Perhaps hoping there would be no time for discussion? Yes, I know that all of this took place at public meetings but I, like many others in the area, work in a tourist driven business and do not have time in the summer to attend a lot of meetings. Upon questioning the verbiage of the bond measure I was met with total silence. Contact with the Oregon
Health Authority and the Tillamook Health Department contradicts the statement on the filed document that “the state of Oregon has stated that they are allowing the continued operation of the pool because we are actively seeking a working replacement”. If the bond measure fails, the old pool is still operational. Initially no one would say where the $3 million dollar loan was coming from or how it would be paid back. Seven days of repeated questioning finally elicited a published response. Not a very inspiring way to garner faith from the very people you are asking to finance this venture. I know there is a faction of people who want the pool – no matter the cost. I am speaking up on behalf of those who don’t have the “creative financing” to simply pull money out of thin air. The five year operating levy will be the fall

ell, we did it! We opened back up after our lengthy COVID closure and the first week went surprisingly well! While doing our reopening research, we discovered all kinds of things that could go wrong. What if people refused to wear masks? What if people crowded others too much? What if people didn’t like the hours we were open? What if people did not cooperate with our 15-minute time limit? But do you know what? None of that happened. While we were prepared for the worst, what surprised us most is the reaction we saw when people walked into the library for the first time in six months. I actually saw a patron bring a hand over her heart and emotionally exclaim, “Ohhhhh, how I have missed this place!” And it was not just one person. All week long, we have witnessed this scenario many times over by people of many different ages. I have seen mothers tear up as they bring their kids inside, grateful for a little return to normalcy. I witnessed elderly patrons

smiling hugely behind their masks, so grateful to be able to pick out some new reading material. And then there are the children! It is so wonderful to see them bouncing around again in our children’s area. While adults are very aware of how our social and business lives have been restricted, we sometimes overlook the way it has changed the lives of kids. Most children have been denied visits to school, to see grandparents, trips to playgrounds, vacations, and even simple outings to the grocery store. Six months of “missing out” seems like an eternity to kids, so it is exciting to see their joy as they get reacquainted with the library. This new phase of reopening is what we call Library Express…brief 15-minute visits inside to allow you time to pick out your own books. While our curbside pickup phase
was great for some, we discovered there are plenty of people who were not comfortable with the process, so they just waited for us to open our doors again. It is comforting to see those people back inside our buildings. And yet, there are some who are personally not ready to come inside the library yet, so those people are calling to see if they can still get curbside pickup service. The answer is YES! All you need to do is call the library location where you want to pick your materials up and arrange a time. Another question we had was from a patron who wondered if we had kept up with ordering new books and DVDs during our closure. Yes, we have! In fact, our shelves are literally bursting with new and exciting titles for you to check out. We would love nothing more than for you to take them home for a while! Fall is often a time we think about homecoming events and the Library Express phase is our version of homecoming for the library. So, whenever you are ready, we hope you will venture back inside our hallowed halls and join our library homecoming party! And oh, how we have missed you all!

and education. He made a lasting impression on us. Recently, when a vacationing black family was verbally accosted with racial slurs on one of our beaches, David invited the family to lunch the following day. He let them know that the incident did not represent the people of Oregon or his district and offered them his personal support. We were especially moved by Rep. Gomberg during the recent wildfires in our area. Even when he was unsure if his own home had burned in the Echo Mountain/Otis fire, he called into an online broadcast the following morning from his evacuation site to update folks in the north Lincoln City area about the fire status and the resources available to evacuees and their families. These are just a few examples of the kind of elected official and person he is. We regularly receive Rep. Gomberg’s personally written email newsletter (available to all). It keeps us informed about what is happening with citizens and businesses in our district and how he is working to help them. In a year of pandemic, economic depression, wildfires, racial injustice awareness, political turmoil, and global warming, David Gomberg is working hard for us on all the issues. It’s an enormous job that requires tons of energy and time. He is clearly up to it and will continue to serve us well. We hope everyone in Oregon Congressional District 10 will join us in voting for David Gomberg as our State Representative. We need his intelligent, informed, caring leadership as we meet the challenges that await us.

No new pool – yet! I am an avid believer in our waterways, the recreation they provide, and that water safety is essential. I also support a variety of physical exercise and the benefits, but I also believe, more importantly, that everyone is entitled to reap these and all the benefits of publicly funded programs and facilities -- to be included with fair treatment. There is a culture of exclusivity that must be discussed regarding the North County Recreation District (NCRD) before more money is requested of the public. Honesty and transparency are paramount. A quiet $4.3M campaign is telling of the NCRD culture and to be questioned. We must have a Financial Sustainability Plan for a post-new pool era. Finances will not be the same as what they are now - the public deserves to see a 20-year financial new-pool plan, especially in this time of COVID which is not going away soon. The size of the new pool proposed is essentially the size of Seaside’s large pool. I have witnessed the intense labor needs and viewed their budget. It is not the same as NCRD’s pool budget. There will be two buildings to staff, which alone will increase labor costs. I invite the public to do their own research of the last 20 years, ‘community pools are money pits’. They are expensive, please don’t fool yourselves. We need a future plan. This $4.3Millon bond is not all… the NCRD will be borrowing an additional $3M on top of the bond and has only saved $2M toward the new pool in over 6 years. But here’s where I need to express my concerns for
the people living within the District and the continued neglect of improving the NCRD culture toward Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Several years ago, our family was discriminated against by NCRD due to our son’s Down syndrome. We tried to excuse the act by calling it ignorance and pleaded for policy change and education, to no avail. Instead, leadership pretended it did not happen, took no accountability, and brushed it under a rug, waiting for us to go away. A donation was made to NCRD for staff DEI training but was never used or pursued. After hundreds of thousands of dollars spent, the brand-new theater has been advertised with public funds as ‘newly renovated’…but quietly no one has addressed the fact the stage remains inaccessible to someone who uses a wheelchair. Access to the stage for wheelchair users has been requested but again, leadership falls silent and hopes this will go away. This affects people we know and love, but the fear of losing seats (money) over inclusion prevails at NCRD. These are unfortunately only a few examples (there are more) of the NCRD culture that needs immediate and deep attention. We have heard from many people and families regarding their experiences and the lack of DEI at NCRD and it is remarkable. I am open to talk with any one. I am not for the pool funding, at this time, until we get our NCRD house in order and begin to take care of all of the people within the District. As a community we have the responsibility to be accountable to everyone that pays the taxes, and to build a recreation district that does not discriminate or exclude anyone. It is time

for change, not a new pool, yet. Julie Chick Nehalem
I’m supporting Boothe-Schmidt I am a Teacher, and I am Voting for Debbie BootheSchmidt I probably taught your child, your neighbor’s child, or even you. For the last nine years teaching in Tillamook County, I played volleyball with students, taught them to write college level papers, and drove them to visit their first college. It was emotional when they stepped into the world on their own, ready to pursue their dreams. That is the point. They gleaned a lifetime of skills in school so they can be successful wherever life takes them. I am fearlessly protective of education. I know its value. That is why I am voting for Debbie Boothe-Schmidt to represent our schools. Debbie is the clear choice. The first thing I noticed about Debbie is that she is endorsed by the union I belong to, the Oregon Education Association (OEA). More than 48,000 Oregon educators belong to OEA. Suzanne Weber, despite being a former teacher, was unable to earn an endorsement from OEA. Why did this large group of educators choose Debbie Boothe-Schmidt over Weber? Debbie pledges to ensure that Oregon education is fully funded. Weber is part of a group that is trying to take over $1 billion a year away from education. Debbie BootheSchmidt has solid plans for education. She will work to get more apprenticeships and technical training in schools. She will take on solving the childcare crisis and increased funding for early childhood education.
She is passionate about this. Debbie knows this need firsthand. She was a young single mother herself trying to find care for her children. We all know there is more to having a strong public education than its programs and funding. Supporting families also strengthens schools. Debbie understands working families. She was a Clatsop County employee. I want someone who knows what it is like for families to buy backpacks for school, budget for sports, or worry about losing their health care. When she goes to Salem, Debbie will push for health care for families and livable working wages. Debbie has those personal qualities that we teach our children every day. She is honest, transparent, and listens to people. Early in this election, I did not know Debbie, so I visited with her. I quickly realized if education is going to get the support it needs, we need Debbie. Her challenger, Weber, lacks transparency. She makes false, negative attack ads about Debbie. Those are not the values I want children to see as a role model. Quite frankly, after years of negative politics, I am tired of that. I was quickly struck by how positive and honest Debbie is. Debbie has the skills to work with everyone to support legislation for our schools. I watched my students and your children grow into strong adults. Let’s send Debbie Boothe-Schmidt to Salem so another generation will be assured of a quality education. Even if you don’t have family members in school, Debbie is a positive future for all of Oregon.
Community, friends and neighbors, first, I love having people voice their concerns, I seek and demand transparency and let’s get answers. It’s been voiced there is mischief around the bond measure. Specifically, why are we hearing this now and the operating budget for the new pool, so I did some research. This conversation has been on NCRD’s board meeting agenda nine times since June 2019. Everyone is welcome to attend board meetings and be in the conversation to voice concerns and opinions. The operating budget for the current pool is $427,128. Over the last 3 years unexpected repairs and upgrades, approximately $50,000. If it were done today the estimated operating budget for the new pool would be $446,293. I encourage you to request a visit to the pool, see for yourself what we currently have, then view the drawings for what will be, if we say yes. Visualize, our new facility as light, bright and welcoming, easily accessible to all. Consider NCRD will be able to go after Tourist dollars to bring visitors in to enjoy and support the pool. The Legacy, beginning 90 years ago, will continue. More important, our children and our children’s children will continue to learn to swim, protecting them from the leading cause of death, drowning. This is an affordable answer to what’s needed and wanted. Personally, my tax liability will be $27/yr! Figure your tax: .13335 x $1000.00 x assessed value = tax/yr

etty Lorrain Martin left her family and friends to be with her Heavenly Father on Oct. 9, 2020 Betty was first born to Glenn and Elva Cole on Feb. 5, 1936. She was born at Dr. Brown’s house in Tillamook, Oregon, and raised on the Cole Family farm in Beaver, Or. Soon after her arrival, little sister Dorothy and little brother Bob were born.

She worked as the Timber Secretary for Publishers Paper Company in Tillamook, Or until their closing. It was a 35 year career for her. Betty was an avid bowler and bowled on leagues from her early 20’s until she was 84 years old. Even being almost blind did not stop this lady from enjoying the game and camaraderie. Betty married the love of her life, Joseph F. Martin on June 2, 1971. She and Joe chose this date to honor Betty’s mother & father who were married on the same date in 1931, their 40th wedding anniversary. Betty and Joe have en-

any thanks to Sally McGee for the news that Cape Meares resident Lana Hechtman Ayers has had three poems published in the latest issue of the prestigious “Buddhist Poetry Review.” Lana is a gifted poet, a publisher and the leader of Writers’ MeetUp where local writers gather (virtually) and share their writing. Lana is also the author of several books. One of Sally’s favorites, “Red Riding Hood’s Real Life,” is a novel in verse. Congratulations to Lana! I noticed some colorful plastic streamers
surrounding Ciel Downing’s new yard and asked her what’s going on. She said that after months of removing sticks and rocks, then renting a backhoe to smooth the ground, then removing more sticks and rocks, she finally put in topsoil. The whole thing was raked smooth and sod was laid. For two days, it looked beautiful; then the elk discovered it. They pulled up entire squares of sod and shook it like a dog shakes a toy! They returned and started digging it out, removing many more oblong strips. Soon, a fence

hanks to Sonya Kazen for writing with good advice for voters. She reminds us to be sure to sign our ballot envelope and to deliver our ballots to a ballot drop box. In south Tillamook County, these are located at Kiawanda Community Center in Pacific City and across U.S. Highway 101 from Center Market in Cloverdale. Please contact me using the information posted near my photo in this space, if you know of additional ballot drop locations south of Hemlock; I’ll repeat this advice weekly until Election Day, including updates as I receive them. There is also a drop box at Tillamook County Courthouse, 201 Laurel Avenue in Tillamook. If you must mail your ballot, County Clerk Tassie O’Neill has advised that ballots be sent no later than Monday,
October 26 to assure that they arrive in time to qualify as legitimate to count. Tillamook County Library re-opened with “Library Express” at all branch locations last week.

Time went on, I did move to another salon eventually, but I always considered Karen as a great boss and good friend. Years later we got in
ors as four-footlong streamers every two feet or so. It has kept our elk friends off! Now that’s imaginative problem-solving. I promised you another fish tale; here it is. We generally put in at Memaloose in the early morning, fish a couple of hours, and then go home to have hot beverages and play canasta. The other day, the sky was still overcast in the afternoon (better than straight sunshine for fishing, we think) and there was no rain, so we decided to go out again—we call that twice-in-one-day fish-
ing “double dipping.” We launched and were on our way downriver when Pete’s rod went down; it was a fish! After a couple of nice runs, he brought in a 13.5lb. Chinook. We were so pleased; up until then, we had boated only two jacks and one small hatchery coho this fall. But there’s more. After another hour of fishing, Pete’s rod went down again and he had another fish on—in just about the same place! Everything was going well until I spotted a boat coming up at a very fast clip from down below, on a path that would
take it right over Pete’s fish. I’m short, 5’1”, but I stood as tall as I could and waved our salmon net until the other boat finally saw me and switched course to go behind us. That taken care of, Pete brought in his second salmon of the day, a 10-lb. Chinook. He was delighted to have his daily limit of Chinook and I, as first mate, was delighted not to have to figure out what to cook for dinner that night. Pete cooks all the seafood in our house, and he does a good job. Yum, yum!

Majority of Oregonians taking steps to limit spread of COVID-19 Monique Merrill chronicle2@countrymedia.net
The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) has a glimpse into Oregonians’ actions and attitudes relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. In two statewide surveys commissioned by the OHA, the results show a majority of Oregonians’ are taking steps to limit the spread of COVID-19, but some are still wary of the efficacy of personal protective measures as case counts across the state continue to trend upward. “Over the past few weeks we’ve seen a steady rise of COVID-19 cases in Oregon,” OHA Deputy State Health Officer Thomas Jeanne said. “When a virus is in a community, we know it will spread if people don’t take precautions. This increase in cases has reversed the progress we made in late summer.” The study illuminated the patterns and behaviors of individuals around the state and gives the OHA a baseline to move forward with public health messaging to encourage residents to stay safe. “We did find that Oregonians are avoiding large group gatherings, somewhat,” said Michelle Neiss, president of DHM Research, the company that conducted one of the surveys. The results of the DHM survey, which sampled 1,009 residents, indicated that 20% of Oregonians attended a gathering of 10 people or more in the two weeks prior to responding. “Those are the kinds of
events that are high risk and can further community spread which brings the virus into workplaces, nursing homes and make people sick,” OHA Director of Communications Rob Cowie said. Overall, the survey found that people who gather together frequently are the ones who are more skeptical that protective measures help, Neiss said. For example, 52% of respondents who answered that they are unlikely to quarantine if they contract the virus also answered that they do not believe it is necessary. A separate survey focused on Latinx Oregonians by Lara Media found that 69.4% of the 468 respondents said they were very likely to stay home if they experienced any COVID-19 symptoms or were exposed to someone with the virus. Of those who answered they would not stay home, 42.9% said they would not stay home because they are the only one in their household who works and they need to support their family. “Keep in mind most of the people we interview are essential workers, which puts them in a higher risk of getting the virus,” said Victoria Lara, owner of Lara Media. Of Latinx residents between the ages of 18-24, about seven out of 10 stated they were very worried about friends and family getting the virus more so than themselves. About four in 10 respondents to the DHM survey said they would definitely get the vaccine if it be-
comes available, and about three in 10 of respondents to the Lara Media survey said they would definitely get the vaccine. The important thing to focus on is continuing to take personal protective measures, Cowie said. “Even when vaccine comes, it will not be a silver bullet,” Cowie said. “We will all need to engage in these behaviors for a while.” Measures like wearing masks when around others, keeping six feet of physical distance between others, washing hands and avoiding large gatherings are all important steps in reducing COVID-19 transmission, he said. On whether these results as a whole should be interpreted optimistically, Jeanne said it was a mixed bag. “There’s good news that most Oregonians are taking it seriously, and taking measures to protect themselves and others,” Jeanne said. “However, with the increase we’re seeing, we know not everyone is.” As schools around the state have started to reopen, the OHA has started to track and report which schools have had any cases of COVID-19. Fourteen schools in the state have had cases of COVID-19, six of those schools had only one case reported. “It’s really a balancing act between preventing COVID but also making sure we’re getting kids in schools to the extent possible, Jeanne said. “We don’t want to open schools and have them close right away. It’s a big issue.”

Open letter to the Neahkahnie School District I have some concern with the Neahkahnie school district’s decision to take advantage of the optional construction tax that the legislature granted to school districts in 2007. Of the 197 school districts in Oregon. Only 63 have chosen to burden their tax payers with this ever increasing tax/fee. I am certain you are aware, Neahkahnie school district is located in a retirement community. Very few people move into this district with the intention of raising families. So logic tells us that the vast majority of property owners will never send children to public school. I certainly understand that schools need adequate funding. And I am not opposed to funding public schools. I just don’t believe that the Neahkahnie district fits into the category of school districts that the legislature intended to help. I am considering starting a petition drive that would ask the school district to eliminate the practice of collecting fees from every person that requests a building permit in this district. In my opinion this tax/fee drives up the cost of housing at a time when many cannot even afford a home or their monthly rent. I also believe this tax/fee has the potential to hurt our local economy. We will never know how many potential property owners have chosen to build elsewhere when they have learned about this tax/fee. And as we all know. Every time a new structure is built, it generates additional revenue for the district. Which makes me ask, why is this tax/fee needed? Perhaps better long term planning by the school board is the best way to address funding issues. Rather than placing additional financial burden on property owners. Jeff Schlip Nehalem
I support Hall for Garibaldi mayor I am hopeful that the citizens of Garibaldi will recognize that Tim Hall should be our next Mayor. He has been a valuable asset for the citizens of this town in his City Council position often challenging the status quo . He has raised the alarm regarding numerous discrepancies in city business including miscalculated SDC fees, his concerns with a 25% cut to the volunteer Fire Department budget and questioning the City’s huge expense on attorney’s fees and employee investigations just to name a few. I believe Tim Hall is sincere in his dedication to our community and will continue to work in the best interest of the City and those of us who live here. Please consider Tim Hall for our

Letters to the editor
Sad and confused I write this letter today sad, confused and with a heavy heart. Why would any person send (through the mail) a package filled with garbage to a local resident running for public office? I just don’t understand this kind of behavior. We all have the right to disagree, but who does something so disgusting? This is what happened to my friend Suzanne Weber who is running for State Rep. in Dist. 32. I have known Suzanne Weber for over 25 years and she is one of the nicest, kindest, most generous people I have had the privilege of knowing. She genuinely cares about the people of Tillamook
County and all of Dist. 32. We need to condemn this kind of behavior. Wouldn’t it have been better to just vote for the person you feel would do a better job? My message to all is please exercise your rights, kindly, with reason, and just Vote, Vote Vote! Barbara Rodriguez Tillamook
Hall for Mayor Over the last two-plus years on the city council in Garibaldi, I am pleased to endorse Tim Hall for Mayor. Tim has been instrumental in working with ODOT getting the speed limit reduced through the
community. This project was started in the late 90s and has seemed to hit road blocks from ODOT but now it has been accomplished. Tim has also shed light on past city and elected officials missing special system development charges at special rates that will have cost the city tens of thousands of dollars. Garibaldi citizens want our officials to be transparent and so does Tim. I am honored to be endorsing Tim for Mayor of Garibaldi, he will move Garibaldi forward in a positive way.

Vote Weber for State Sen. Dist. 32 I would like to encourage my fellow North Coast citizens to vote for Suzanne Weber. Suzanne is someone we can relate to because she is one of us. She taught school for thirty years. Having been a teacher myself, I can relate to her statement “I’ve spent my career helping kids and families right here on the North Coast.” Having been a co-owner of a small business, I can also agree when she says, “I’m tired of our community having no voice for our values in the Oregon House. Portland is welcome to visit our coastal communities, but the Portland

Against all uncertainty: Forging solutions and fostering normalcy for family Ariel Slifka TCW Community Health Connection VISTA
T
he last 6 months have not been easy, and for local resident Julie Hurliman, the biggest concern has always been the impact on her
9-year-old son, Matteo. At the beginning of COVID-19, Julie found herself allowing Matteo more screen time than normal because it was the only way to interact with friends and other family. She worries about him feeling lonely or isolated as an only child during a
time of social distancing. Luckily, Julie was eventually able to create what she calls a “germ circle” with another family who also offered childcare. The families have kept their interactions with the outside world to a minimum, allowing their children to then safely

interact with each other normally. As school has started up this fall, this connection has developed into more of a “learning pod, ” which has been increasingly helpful in navigating the challenges of online school. Like many people, Julie is trying to do what is best for herself and her family in the world of COVID-19, although that in itself has been difficult to determine. With constant streams of conflicting information about COVID-19 in the media, Julie has felt torn: “Maybe I am overreacting to this? And then you see the other stories and effects of COVID and then think maybe you can’t overreact; this is a big deal. It’s really hard to feel sane in all of this.” It has been difficult to feel confident about any decisions, especially with COVID-19 making planning for the future nearly impossible. Within all of the uncertainty, Julie tries to focus on being kind - both to others and to herself. She points out that we never know what someone else is experiencing and it’s safer to assume that we are all doing the best that we can. She has found
that although it is difficult to carve out time for self-care, she tries to take advantage of the opportunities that do come along. This summer has involved hiking, camping, kayaking, and grilling on the back deck – and thanks to COVID-19, a new evening hobby of watching the birds. Her focus is still on her son: “The world feels like such a heavy place with so much going on right now, you can almost feel guilty if you’re not consumed with worry. I don’t ever want that to feel normal for him.” Carving
out time to do something fun together has become a priority, whether that involves board games or watching America’s Funniest Videos as a family on Sunday nights. These moments have become highlights of normalcy and joy in the midst of the challenges and chaos that 2020 has brought us all.

‘I toad you … I would do a column on toads’
arlier in September I did a column where I briefly discussed the benefits of attracting toads and snakes to the garden. And I promised to go into more detail. Then fire struck Tillamook County and I felt it important to do a column on fire resistant plants. But here I am back to the topic of toads. First let’s distinguish between toads and frogs. Both, of course, are amphibians and they look very much alike. Amphibians (frogs, toads and newts) begin life as eggs laid in water. They develop into tadpoles with tiny tails. Soon, the tadpoles will grow legs and turn into little froglets or toadlets. Amphibians will move onto land and spend most
of their lives there except to feed and breed in water. Frogs and toads lose their tails before moving onto land, but newts keep their tails. Both frogs and toads eat an enormous amount – up to 10,000 insects, slugs, and snails over a season. Frogs have a smoother, moist skin and long legs designed for hopping. Frogs prefer a damp habitat, perhaps near a pond or stream. Toads’ skin is rough and warty and they have golden eyes. Toads also have shorter legs making them more likely to crawl than hop. Toads are more acclimated to a drier environment and spend less time near water than frogs, so toads are ideal for a garden without a natural water source. We often think of
GARDENING MATTERS CARLA ALBRIGHT
frogs being green and toads being brown, but there can be many color variations in both frogs and toads, so it is easier to go by the type of skin (smooth vs warty) for identification than coloration. Both toads and frogs can also have stripes or spots. A field guide to types of amphibians is always helpful for identification as is knowing which types of frogs and toads live in our area. The most com-
mon toad on the coast is the western toad. Now for the important part. How do we keep Mr. and Mrs. Toad happy in our garden? First and probably most important is to keep them safe from predators. Snakes, birds and even cats and dogs can decimate the toad population in your garden in the blink of an eye. So it is crucial to provide lower-growing foliage (think shrubs and perennials) and elevated areas for them to hide. Secondly, they need shelter. The name for where amphibians and reptiles live in the winter is called a ‘hibernacula.’ (New word for me to learn, too.) You can easily construct one from old bricks or logs covered with wood-chips and soil. This will give the toads lots of little places in which to shelter. Choose a shady,
protected spot where the soil drains well and place some old bricks, stones, logs or rubble and pack the spaces a little with wood chips. Covering the mound with soil keeps the warmth in the hibernacula. You will find that grasses and other ground covers will grow over the top and it will look like a little mound in the garden. Do try to keep the weeds off, though, by planting ground covers thickly. This type of hibernacula can take up quite a lot of space not to mention time to create it. So an easier solution would be a “toad home.” Find that same shaded, well-drained spot under a shrub and set a clay pot on its side, burying the lower half into the welldrained soil. Or you can place the pot upside down on a little bed of stones, removing a few from one side to allow entrance to
the “toad cave.” Put a little grass or a few leaves inside to keep it cozy. You could also make a wooden house or, of course, you can buy a fancy one online, but they can be quite pricey. And you will need a water source for your toad, because, while they do not need to live in water, they need it to drink. This is easily accomplished by sinking a small dish in the ground and keeping it filled with water. Often times a toad will find his home on his own. But if the house remains uninhabited, you can go searching in the early summer for a toad to “adopt” in cool, shady woodland areas near a stream or pond. Given the proper environment and kept safe from predators, toads will grace your garden and help keep insect and slug populations in check.

reetings Bay City! I have been offline for a couple of weeks, but I’m back at my desk just in time to send out several important announcements from City Hall and beyond. Mayor David McCall and the City Council are pleased to announce that Roy Markee has joined the City as our new Public Works Director. Mayor McCall reports that Mr. Markee comes with decades of experience in infrastructure projects, which is very important as we progress into the next phase of several projects that Bay City is facing, such as the Patterson Creek Project. This project is complex, involving cooperation with multiple agencies, and involves improvements in our water and sewer systems, road crossings, and the replacement of multiple culverts to improve fish passage. Roy, welcome to Bay City. At this time the City Recorder position is still open. Call City Hall at (503)3772288 if you are interested in this position. Your ballots are arriving this week. Please take time to research the candidates asking for your vote. The ballot drop box located near City Hall is a safe and secure place for you to drop off your ballots. Please do not forget to sign your ballot envelope! I repeat: Research, Vote, Sign, and put it in the drop box. The

Bay City candidates appearing on your ballot have prepared a flier that is being emailed out to all Bay City voters this week. If you don’t receive one please contact City Hall. Emergency Preparedness Committee Chairperson Helen Wright has called a meeting for the neighborhood disaster preparedness captains and other interested persons on Monday, October 19th at 6:00 PM in the Bay City Fire Hall. You will receive your emergency packets and maps of your neighborhoods. The Committee is also asking the citizens of Bay City to buy and fill 1-gallon zip-lock bags with the following items: tooth paste and tooth brushes, soap, wash cloth, hand towel, hand sanitizer, and mask. These items will be passed out by the captains to those in need in their neighborhoods and/or included with the blankets in the emergency containers. You will receive more information on the drop off area for the one gallon emergency bags at the meeting. Helen would like you to know that your volunteer efforts in this program are greatly appreciated. Helen Wright continues to be a champion for her community. She delivered letters and TLT grant applications to Bay City businesses for them to apply for funds to make storefront and other improvements. Whether that’s new paint, landscaping, or repairs, this program will give our community a fresh look. Thank you again Helen. Mark your calendars for the Booster Club meeting on Friday, October 30th at 11:30 AM at City Hall. Lunch will be provided by the Boosters, as there is no potluck at this time. Come and find out what the Boosters are up to….great things I’m sure. Masks are required. Oyster Club members, it’s time to make some
plans for next year’s Pearl. The leaders of the Oyster Club want to continue to move forward and explore your ideas on how the Club can be involved in the present and future of our community. At this time we are discussing the best and safest way to meet. I will keep you informed when we locate a larger space to meet. For more information on the Pearl and Oyster Club call (503)931-9721. The Bay City Arts Center is offering its last stone carving class for the year on Saturday, October 17th and Sunday, October 18th. Due to social distancing requirements, there is a limit of 10 people, and masks are required, so please register ahead. Your tools and stone are supplied by the Arts Center. Tuition is by donation. Please provide your own lunch. For more information call Charlie Wooldridge at (503)8422013. The Library Express is now open, with a few pandemic requirements. Patrons are limited to 15 minutes in the library, masks are a requirement, and the computer and copy machines are not available for public use at this time. Branch library hours (Bay City) are 12:00 to 5:00 PM, Monday-Friday, and the Tillamook County Library is open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Monday-Friday. There will not be a trickor-treats handout this year. Instead, watch for their special promotion later in the year, where they will treat children with a free book. I have missed the Bay City library. It’s pure joy for me to look for a book and come home with a new stack of my favorite authors. The Bay City October birthdays are being celebrated by Karen Allenbrand, Ben Douglas, Pat Brown, Sarah Copple, Rick Snyder, and my friends Mike Brown and Ramon Barajas; also my very good friend Norma Seely and yours truly. And yes, dear readers, I do celebrate my birthday for a month. Why, you ask? Because at my age, so much fun in one day wears me out. So I spread the fun out for a whole month! Thank you for reading the Fencepost. I’ll see you next week.

There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making their bids, all bidders except the Secretary must submit a deposit totaling $35,277.87 [10% of the Secretary’s bid] in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. Each oral bid need not be accompanied by a deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of $35,277.87 must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable.
