Confirmed COVID-19 cases reach five in county Cody Mann headlightnews@countrymedia.net
A
fourth case of COVID-19 coronavirus was reported to Tillamook county officials Wednesday morning, April 8. A fifth case was reported on social media the following Friday. The new case was announced during a teleconference of the Tillamook Board of County Commissioners. Eric Swanson, Adventist Health Tillamook president, said he received an email reporting a fourth positive COVID-19 case involving a person who lives in Tillamook and works in Portland. A social media post from Tillamook County Community Health
Centers later that morning confirmed the fourth positive COVID-19 case, a person between the ages of 35-45. A contact investigation is ongoing. Marlene Putman, Community Health Centers administrator, was not immediately available to comment. During the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners teleconference Wednesday, Emergency Manager Gordon McCraw said he recently received another small shipment of protective equipment, possibly the last for a while. He said the state emergency agency is looking for additional supplies, but on its own. “The word is that was the last of the national stockpile that was issued to Oregon,” McCraw said. “So, it’ll
be a while before we get another shipment.” A fifth case of COVID-19 was reported by Tillamook County Community Health Centers on social media Friday, April 10. The person is between the ages of 65-75 and has been self-isolated at home. A contact investigation was ongoing. A sixth reported case was retracted when it was learned the person had relocated to Washington County. As of Monday, April 13, Oregon Health Authority (OHA) reports 151 people have been tested for COVID-19 in Tillamook County. Oregon has tested 31,121 people with 1,584

State, county and city officials say ‘stay home’ Cody Mann headlightnews@countrymedia.net “With this nice weather, we are seeing – unfortunately – more and more people from outside of Tillamook County coming here,” Commissioner David Yamamoto said during a teleconference this past week. Yamamoto said he was bothered by people choosing to ignore the stay at home order put in place by Gov. Kate Brown. He noted the frequency of out-of-state license plates and said local enforcement is limited in what can be done. Yamamoto asked the public to continue reporting activity so that authorities can have a conversation with visitors. “It’s very difficult for us to just close down our borders; it’s not something we can do easily,” Yamamoto said. “I’m hoping that people will understand, but please, if you see things like that going on in the county, please let us know.” Sheriff Jim Horton confirmed numerous sighting of non-Oregon license plates in the south county area, particularly around Pacific City. He pointed out that law enforcement is not authorized to stop vehicles just for having a license plate from another state. Horton said Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office is taking an educational approach, making contact when possible to advise people of the state order and encourage them to return home. “That’s a very slippery slope just to contact citizens for no reason other than that,” Horton said. “Having an out-ofstate license plate, yes we’re concerned about them in our area and in our community, but we do have to respect their constitutional rights as well.” Horton said concerned citizens

ounty commissioners invested in a token of appreciation for those serving on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic – 1,000 buttons displaying “Official County Hero Award” along with the county logo and commissioners’ approval. Tillamook County Commissioners Bill Baertlein, Mary Faith Bell and David Yamamoto paid for the buttons personally. The buttons will be distributed first to healthcare workers
including staff at the Community Health Centers, Adventist Health and the Rinehart Clinic. A second round of buttons are designated for grocery workers
and others serving the community. “We want to recognize those folks because they are the heroes in Tillamook County,” Baertlein said. Yamamoto credited Beartlein for the idea, saying it was important to recognize those who are continuing to serve as COVID-19 spreads. Yamamoto hopes as people see the buttons around the county they will say ‘thank you’ to those wearing them. Bell concurred with the

he state is closing recreational hunting, fishing, crabbing and clamming to non-residents due to concerns about travel to Oregon to participate in these outdoor activities, according to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW). Traveling could spread COVID-19 coronavirus and put more of a burden on Oregon’s coastal communities. Tillamook County officials had already discussed concerns that clammers from out of state had intentions to swarm local areas this coming weekend. “I hope this will help dissuade outof-state clammers with the low tides this coming weekend,” Tillamook County Commissioner Mary Faith Bell said. As of Friday 11:59 p.m., non-residents may no longer participate in these activities in Oregon. The ban stands until state coronavirus restrictions are lifted and it is deemed safe to travel into Oregon. This order does not apply to anyone living in Oregon for less than six months who has not yet established residency. Some states including Washington have closed hunting and fishing to limit the spread of the virus. While seasons remain open in Oregon (except for Columbia River salmon/steelhead fishing), resident hunters and anglers should not be traveling to participate. ODFW reported concerns from rural communities about people visiting to hunt and fish and placing additional burdens on these communities’ limited resources. “Rural communities are concerned about the potential impact of COVID-19 on medical and emergency services, search and rescue and their citizens. Some have asked us to close seasons to reduce travel,” said ODFW Director Curt Melcher. “We would like to keep seasons open to give locals an outlet during this difficult time, but that doesn’t mean it’s OK to travel to these communities. Stick close to home and fish at your local lake, pond or river and do not go crabbing or clamming unless you live on the coast, and then only to places where access is still open,” Melcher said. ODFW monitoring has shown that while Oregonians are still participating in fisheries, clamming, shed hunting, and

Log truck spills load on Highway 101 near Pacific City Cody Mann headlightnews@countrymedia.net

A log truck driver suffered minor injuries and was cited by police after his truck rolled and spilled its load. According to Oregon State Police (OSP), a loaded Fallon Logging truck was travelling northbound on U.S. Route 101 Friday, April 10, when the driver
lost control while negotiating a right-hand turn near the Brooten Road exit. The log truck traveled into the southbound lane and rolled onto its side. While the truck was on its side, it lost all of its loaded logs. The truck ended up in the ditch on the southbound shoulder as it was sliding on its driver’s side, but re-righted on its wheels and spun around, coming to a rest in the roadway, which was
blocked by the crash. The driver, who OSP identified as 42-year-old Luther Rhoads, reportedly sustained minor, non-life-threatening injuries. However, the truck was severely damage. The logs and truck were recovered by Burden’s Towing and the highway was reopened. Rhoads was cited for careless driving and failure to maintain lane.

In light of the necessity to continue social distancing measures during the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, particularly her ‘Stay Home, Save Lives’ order, Gov. Kate Brown is extending Oregon’s physical closures for the K-12 and post-secondary education systems through the end of the current academic term and school year. “My top priority will always be the health and safety of Oregonians,” Brown said. “The best thing we can do is to give everyone certainty and close in school learning for the remainder of the year.” Brown directed school districts, community colleges, and universities to complete the final weeks of the regular academic year by continuing distance learning and support to students. Brown also said all seniors who were on track to graduate when schools closed in mid-March, including having passing grades at that point in any course required for graduation, will receive passing grades and earn diplomas. Recognizing that physical closures of schools under unprecedented circumstances impact Oregon’s high school seniors in particular, the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) released new guidance for pathways for seniors to graduate. Graduation Pathways COVID-19 won’t stop Oregon’s high school seniors.

That was the message the ODE delivered as it released Graduation Pathways 2020, the official guidance detailing how Oregon’s high school seniors can earn their final set of high school credits and graduate on-time. “COVID-19 won’t knock Oregon’s students off their path to graduation,” ODE Director Colt Gill said. “This guidance assures our students’ hard earned futures even during this global challenge.” Oregon’s Graduation Pathways 2020 is the result of collaboration with educators, administrators, culturally specific communitybased organizations, and the education community. This guidance recognizes that this closure is impacting less than 2 percent of seniors’ time spent learning from kindergarten to grade 12. Key components of the guidance: - Maintains Oregon’s rigorous credit requirements while providing a clear path to graduation for seniors who were on-track to graduate prior to the statewide school closure. - Ensures that schools focus their resources to first support students who need to complete additional credits to graduate and then prepare all graduates for their next steps in life. - Suspends Essential Skills and Personalized Learning Requirements. “The Graduation Pathways 2020 guidance celebrates the nearly 13 years of
work and accomplishment by these graduating seniors and empowers students to move on to the next step in their life,” said Oregon PTA President Kriste Dille. Oregon’s seven public universities and Oregon Health & Science University issued a statement in response to the guidance: “The Oregon public universities are committed to ensuring that incoming freshman students who intend to enroll at our institutions are considered fairly in light of the educational interruption they have endured in their final year of high school. “No student admitted to our institutions for fall 2020 will have their admission rescinded due to changes in grading policy or the inability to complete their coursework, as long as they graduate high school. Students who apply to our institutions are still subject to a review process that focuses on their ability to succeed in college, but the Oregon public universities recognize that some situations are beyond their control. “We look forward to supporting students and high schools through this challenging time, both now and with future high school graduating classes impacted by the pandemic.” Graduation Pathways 2020 guidance can be found on the ODE website within the Distance Learning for All guidance document, section four.

should call his office rather than dispatch, adding that short-term rental concerns should be directed to the Community Development office. He said while Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office (TCSO) deputies are busy, they are seeing a lot of compliance from local citizens. Are you from around here? Wheeler Mayor Stevie Burden responded to the reports of non-Oregon license plates with a reminder that some of them belong to people who own property and pay taxes. Second homes are prominent among the charming, spacious coastal towns of Tillamook County. “If I still lived in Portland, I’d want to be down here to feel safe in this crazy time,” Burden said. “I think if we’re going to educate people, we need to remind people that just because you have a Washington plate doesn’t mean you don’t belong here.” During a previous county commissioners’ teleconference, the community reactions to possible outsiders also came up. Emergency Manager Gordon McCraw said residents were verbally assaulting people with out-ofstate license plates and one car was egged. He said people are coming into the county to take care of elderly parents. “I had word that a military spouse with a different plate was verbally assaulted at a convenience store,” McCraw said. “In the military, when you transfer to another state, you are not required to change your plates.” Commissioner Bill Baertlein said there are a lot of health workers in the county with out-of-state license plates. He said not harass someone who might be here to save your life. There was also talk of concern in the community about people from out of the county coming to their second homes. Baertlein said the county government does not have the authority to stop them. Tillamook County is under a state of emergency until at least April 28. County, state and federal parks are closed as are county parking lots, county beach access and certain roadside parking areas, as well as public boat launches except for commercial fishing. Hotels, motels, short-term vacation rentals, bed and breakfasts, RV parks and campgrounds are all closed except to guests registered longer than 30 days, essential personnel and emergency responders. Despite the best efforts of public agencies and community leaders, the visitors are still coming to the coast. Short-term rental complications Taking daily calls and emails on the subject, Tillamook County’s Department of Community Development has been diligently responding to concerns and inquiries related to short-term rental activities, according to Community Development Director Sarah Absher. “The coordinated efforts of transient lodging operators and community residents to help address public health, welfare and safety concerns regarding short term rental activity in relation to the threat of COVID-19 is greatly appreciated,” Absher said in an email. For those properties continuing to rent in accordance with the exceptions outlined by county officials, Absher said Community Development is working closely with short-term rental operators to document rental activities so that community concerns and inquiries regarding these properties can be responded to immediately. Community Development has also confirmed that many of the currently occupied

short-term rentals are for personal use by property owners as well as their extended family and friends, which is not prohibited under the Tillamook County state of emergency order. Violations of the county order could result in revocation of a rental permit or fines of up to $1,000 per day per incident. If a violation is confirmed, code enforcement action will be taken in accordance with the enforcement process outlined in Tillamook County Ordinance 84. Any questions or concerns related to shortterm rental activities should be directed to the Department of Community Development at 503-842-3408 ext. 3317. Vacasa makes cancellations, cuts, layoffs Vacasa, a Portland vacation rental management company, is perhaps the biggest name in coastal short-term rentals. Vacasa public relations manager Anni Murphy said in an email that during this period of uncertainty the company is strongly encouraging everyone to follow health and safety guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Murphy said Vacasa is complying with orders and travel restrictions issued by federal, state and local governments. “Specifically, we are adhering to the recent order issued by Tillamook County, and we are cancelling reservations in the region as required,” Murphy said. Murphy said to the company’s knowledge, no Vacasa employees have tested positive for COVID-19 as of this past week. She said Vacasa is offering comprehensive health benefits including flexible time off and the ability to work remotely. “We employ local team members in every destination where we operate, which allows us the ability to ensure our homes are cleaned thoroughly in line with standards set by the World Health Organization and Health and Safety Executive,” Murphy said. “We provide our valuable employees with the proper cleaning supplies per the CDC and Environmental Protection Agency for COVID-19, and we’re ensuring they’re able to work autonomously to adhere to social distancing recommendations.” Responding to the question of protective masks for cleaning staff, Murphy cited the short supply of masks and respirators and guidance that they should be reserved for people who are exhibiting symptoms or healthcare professionals working directly with sick patients. Vacasa employees have been instructed to stay home if they are feeling ill to minimize the risk of spreading illness. Vacasa notified employees at the end of March that it is laying off an unspecified number of workers, cutting the hours of others in half, and reducing executive pay. The Oregonian reported that Vacasa was Oregon’s most promising company in a generation, raising more than $500 million in outside investment that valued the business at more than $1 billion. But the hospitality and lodging industry has been walloped by the coronavirus outbreak, with vacation travel all but ceasing as people seek to protect themselves from infection. “With rapidly evolving travel restrictions and closures in popular vacation destinations like ski resorts and beaches, we are seeing a significant decline in reservations and revenue,” Vacasa said in a written statement. “To preserve the longevity of our business, we have to make proactive and significant cost adjustments, including staffing changes across the organization.” Privately held Vacasa also maintains vacation homes for property owners. It has 6,000 employees worldwide. While Vacasa did not say how many employees would be

So let’s acknowledge that part-time owners are a key part of our local economy from which we all benefit.

I’m a fulltime resident in the Neskowin area, and I’d like to speak up on behalf of our part-time homeowners. Right now there seems to be a lot of resentment against them for coming to their properties in our coastal paradise. What we need to acknowledge is that they pay taxes on those properties that support our schools, libraries, emergency services and local government functions, from which we all benefit. Whether they’re here or not, they’re also providing
with others without knowing whether we’re asymptomatic or not. That’s why we all need to observe the rules. I don’t blame anyone for wanting to get away from crowded urban areas and breathe this fresh air and share these soothing ocean views.

here is no getting around it: Times are challenging right now. Everyone is feeling the weight and the stress of staying at home; home schooling and distance learning for the rest of the academic year; going to work when you know you’re putting yourself and your family at risk; and on it goes. No one is immune to the restrictions, changes, and challenging of life right now – not even the Chamber. It’s no longer “business as usual” as we also have had to adjust to all the changes and shift our focus on what we would “normally” be doing to what is needed. One thing we need right now more than ever is positivity. It is so easy to get caught up in the bad news, the curves, and the projections. It’s easy to get frustrated by the inconveniences, or, on the other side of that coin, it’s easy to be frustrated by people who aren’t sheltering at home the same way you are. We get it. Here is the thing though: We are all in this together. Most people most of the time are doing the best they can. One of the best things we can all do right now is focus on the silver linings. That’s our goal at the Chamber, and we

President Trump must put Beijing on notice that they will be held financially liable for their willful negligence relating to the viral pandemic. Since the Clinton Administration allowed China the privilege of normalized trade relations with us, the regime has been actively trying to undermine us ever since. (Theft of intellectual infringement and flooding our country with illicit and highly addictive drugs. (Fentanyl etc.). First our debt to China (I believe about one trillion dollars) must be erased. Further more they must be forced to reimburse us for the total cost of economic damages caused by the outbreak. If they refuse to cooperate, trade and banking sanctions must be put in place. If necessary, an allied naval blockade to enforce these measures would be warranted.

hope you will follow along with us. Every week we are posting tips and “Quarantine Life Hacks” on our Facebook page to remind our community not to sweat the small stuff. There are good things happening too, and they are worth celebrating. We’ve been able to quickly implement some of the good things here at the Chamber – things like our #TillamookTakeout challenge, which is helping our restaurants and bars get through this tough time, and giving our community something to do and look forward to every week. We’re seeing such positive conversation happening in our Facebook group: Tillamook Coast Takeout + Delivery as people are stepping up to the challenge. More restaurants are offering delivery than before (another positive), and recently were awarded a $7,500 grant from Northwest Oregon Works to enhance those services for some local
restaurants. Thanks to our amazing partnership with the Tillamook Coast Visitors Association not only are we able to host weekly giveaways totaling over $2,500, we’ve also created some other “challenges” on our Facebook group (because let’s face it, the time we’re all spending on social media these days is off the charts) with giveaways that support some of our essential organizations like Senior Meals on Wheels, CARE, and Oregon Food Bank. Go check it out if you haven’t already, and help us give away $500 in gift certificates to this program that is taking care of our seniors during this challenging time. And, feel free to share our posts with your own friends and followers because we need to be taking care of each other right now more than ever. We may be isolated, but we can still check in, and social media is a perfect way to do that. As always, if you have any questions for the Chamber of Commerce, you can email me directly at justin@tillamookchamber.org or call our office at 503.842.7535. Our offices are open from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m., Monday – Friday, and we are available by phone and email from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

TALES FROM THE LIBRARY We are in the service industry and to not be able to fulfill our mission is agonizing. Luckily, we have something we call the Virtual Library, located on our website at www.tillabook. org. Library card holders can access books, audiobooks, movies, music, magazines and more! Over the next several weeks, I will highlight many of these resources to let you know about the wealth of information you can still access while we are closed… and when we open back up again!

elcome to the new Tillamook County Library column in the Headlight Herald! My name is Bill Landau, and for almost nine years, I have managed all of the branch libraries and the bookmobile for the county. Never in a million years did I think I would be writing you from a closed-up-tight library, but here I am, in the midst of COVID-19. First and foremost, I want to let you know how desperately each of the library staff misses serving our patrons!

If your card has expired, just leave us a message at 503842-4792 and we will call you back to get it reinstated. If you don’t have a library card, don’t forget to visit us on Facebook and YouTube. We’ve been recording some fun storytimes, craft programs, ukulele
lessons and more for all to enjoy! The first service I would like to highlight is called Flipster. This is our brand new service for online magazines that we started as soon as we found out we would have to close our libraries for COVID-19. Flipster lets you read and download magazines from your tablet, smartphone or computer! To begin, go
that matter. My candidacy for position #1 offers voters a choice, like my 2018 candidacy for Mayor of Bay City did for the registered voters of Bay City. It is my hope that registered voters take the necessary time to think very carefully about their choice for both of the County Commissioner positions. The candidates you elect will set a new tone and undoubtedly change the landscape of Tillamook County for the next 4 years. Warmest Regards,
deserved.

Current issues and back issues are available. The second resource I’d like to highlight is called Hoopla. Tillamook County Library cardholders have access to this service which features thousands of streaming movies, television shows, audiobooks, ebooks, comics, and full music albums. Hoopla Digital items are available instantly without waiting on a hold list, and can
be streamed on most modern web browsers or downloaded to the app for use on the go. During the closure, we have increased the number of items you can check out to 20 per month! We hope these bring some joy to your lives over the coming weeks. Please watch for our next column when I will highlight a few additional resources you can find on our library website. In the meantime, wash your hands and keep reading! Editor’s note: Bill Landau is the Extension Librarian at the Tillamook County Library.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
n Letters
Point of Reference... Salutations Tillamook County! This letter to the editor is to clarify to Registered Tillamook County Voters that the title of the Headlight Herald news story Kruebbe suspends county commission race from April 7, 2020 may be misleading as the title itself does not convey my intent to inform the public that I suspended my campaign for the month of April only and not indefinitely as may be misrepresented or misinterpreted in the title. Anyone not actually reading the story and my comments might have concluded that I dropped out of the race. That is not at all the case. It has rather been my intent to focus on the Covid-19 outbreak and related ongoing concerns, help those who need behavioral health and substance abuse concerns, and help govern Bay City. It is my hope that by May, things will ease up a bit and I will be able to recalibrate my campaign efforts. These are indeed difficult and trying times for everyone. The primary is in still in clear sight through the fog of confusion we are all trying to navigate the best we know how. Many of you may also be wondering why I switched from position #2 to Position # 1. I evaluated a couple of things I was concerned about, one being the potential conflict of interest for me that Bay City Councilor David McCall and I were both running for position #2. As Mayor of Bay City, I thought this might create further tension and political backlash, of which I was already beginning to sense was the case and had been the case in my first year as Mayor. The other reason was that I simply don’t at all think that any candidate for a position this important run unopposed and be a shoo in for the job. That would not at all reflect what the public may consider to be fair and equitable or democratic for
Continued from Page 4 dling Chinese made goods, you may want to change your business plan. We built China up and we can tear it down much faster. U.S. consumers must stop buying so much unnecessary junk, which just winds up in a landfill. Our security, health and prosperity depends on these actions. Douglas Babcock Beaver
Never waste a good crisis Now that we are in a pandemic crisis there is a move a foot to create additional hardship. There is a demand to Governor Brown for pesticide action. What is going on are we not wearing masks, are many grocery store shelves not fully stocked and our friends un-employed? Demanding pesticide action now is like calling 911 when you run out of toilet paper. There is real reasoned forest reform already happening in the Governor’s office. Private non-profits and forest representatives have already agreed to change portions of Oregon’s Forest Practices’ act and increase pesticide buffer widths around homes, schools and water systems. We now know what the un-intended consequences are of something new, COVID-19 and the disruptions it has caused. While the adage is “never waste a good crisis”, now is not the time to change how our food and wood products are grown. David Wells Tillamook
Christopher Kruebbe, Candidate for Tillamook County Commissioner Position #1
Police, Firefighters and first responders need hazard pay as well I am appalled at what I read in the paper today. I am not saying it is not deserved but bias. Fred Mayer and Safeway have given $2 raises to their employees during this cv19. Also city hall employees and other city employees get paid for being home. If they work it is only part time and they get full pay. Is anyone in our county aware that those that protect and serve are NOT receiving ANY HAZARD PAY. Police, sheriff and deputy sheriffs don’t get ANY. If they get cv19 serving our community they can borrow limited sick time. Law enforcement deserves HAZARD PAY, They are always on the line protecting our county. Other cities pay their Law enforcement HAZARD PAY. They are not sitting at home safe and getting paid. Please rethink priorities and give these officers what they are worth. They should not be exempt or ignored during this cv19 crisis. Please grant them HAZARD Pay from day one, it is well

Thanks David for first class recycling in Tillamook CountyI used to envy
our daughter. She lives in Santa Monica, CA, where folks can easily dispose of recyclable material by placing it all, unsorted, into one commodious container which is removed weekly by the city . I believed that this ecological luxury could not be afforded by the relatively sparsely populated county of Tillamook, (where my wife Andrea and I have lived since 2004). But then I didn’t know about the energy, intelligence, and determination of Mr. David McCall, our manager of sanitation and waste disposal. Thanks to his vision, dedication, and leadership my own dream of first-class recycling is now a reality. I’ve grown to know Mr. McCall and have discovered that he is one amazing fellow! So I’m going to vote for Mr. MCall for Commissioner of Tillamook County. I ask that you join me. Thank you!

Forestry is Essential During COVID-19 I am writing in response to the guest column: “Avoiding pesticides almost impossible if sheltering in place.” As our communities remain at a standstill, it is becoming increasingly clear that some operations must push forward to help provide the vital services and products we all will need in the days and months ahead. We are grateful to our farmers for growing the food on our grocery store shelves and kitchen tables, as well as the foresters growing and harvesting trees in order to keep the vitally important wood and paper products flowing. Thanks to technological developments, foresters commonly use all parts of the tree, including bark, and even sawdust, to produce many household products. Let us not forget about all the recent talk of the demand for toilet paper. Credit to the hardworking folks at the paper mill in Wauna, we are able to have access to the wood supplies our households need most
during this crisis so we can adhere to the in-shelter orders and have the products we need at home. Targeted use of herbicides at the beginning of a new forest helps baby tree survivaland ensures that a new forest will regenerate after harvest. Without herbicides the baby trees will become entangled and covered in brush causing the tree to die. State licensed aerial applicators are highly trained to make precision applications while following all regulations and safe best practices protocols. They monitor and record wind speed, temperatures and precipitation to ensure effectiveness and safety. I appeal to the Governor to not respond to these opportunistic scare tactics during this time. Forestry professionals are trying to ensure society has wood and paper products now, and for future generations. Furthermore, in times of need, it is best not to shut off critical care for our forests or jeopardize an industry that employs thousands in our state.

OBITUARIES
Thomas Guernsey Bender – September 24, 1941 – March 4, 2020. Tom was one of a kind. Visionary and trailblazer, he was passionate about energyconserving design, saving forests, and sustainable economics of community, including affordable housing. Also energy portals, shamanism and ancient sacred sites worldwide. He was born to Kathleen and John Bender in Fostoria, Ohio. They and sister Susan preceded him in death. He studied architecture at Miami University (Ohio) and received his Masters from the University of Pennsylvania studying with Louis Kahn. He taught at University of Virginia, then University of Minnesota, creating an innovative Environmental Design Program and co-leading the Ouroborus Project, a student designed and built “resource-
self-reliant house,” a first of its kind. Tom met Lane deMoll in 1971 and in 1974 they worked in Oregon Governor Tom McCall’s Office of Energy Research and Planning. After that they were part of a team of editors of Portland’s Rain Magazine – sharing early information about sustainability. In 1976 they built their home on Neahkahnie Mountain. Tom was involved in founding many community projects and designed houses around the Pacific Northwest. Most notable buildings include the Manzanita Library, Cannon Beach Chamber of Commerce, Saint Catherine’s Episcopal Church (known for its marvelous acoustics) and Columbia Bank for which he won an award from the American Institute of Architects. He won other prestigious awards, spoke at conferences all over the US, and was the author of numerous articles, books, and videos. His last project was a grant for solar panels for the Neahkahnie School District. Besides his sons, Skye and Morgan, and former wife, Tom is survived by granddaughters, Ziora and Chetaora and daughter-in-law, Nkeiruka Oruche. He died in his home with his sons by his.

Jill Rivers Carter We are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our family matriarch, Jill Carter. Jill passed away peacefully at her home in Neahkanie on Thursday April 9th surround-
ed by family. Jill was a beautiful, happy spirit who taught us how to live. Her authenticity, love, and light brought our family and friends in the community much joy and understanding over her lifetime. Jill’s passion for our community was to improve the lives of disabled individuals, which she did by serving Tillamook County as board president for the Marie Mills Center and Marie Mills Foundation for more than 20 years. A private burial is planned later this week at The American Legion Cemetery in Nehalem. Current restrictions in place due to COVID-19 make it mandatory that we postpone her memorial service. The family will have a Memorial and Celebration of Life for Jill when it is possible to properly gather and celebrate with her family and friends in the community, and will announce that date as soon as we are able. In lieu of flowers, please make contributions to the Marie Mills Center, 1800 Front Street, Tillamook, Oregon 97141. This will help continue her legacy to serve disabled individuals in our County.
Death Notice Ricky Dean Lane of Hebo died on April 8, 2020. He was born on Sept. 29, 1950. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

chelle Orona and her brother Benjamin Delaney. and her many friends at Marie Mills Center. Deborah had a challenging early life dealing with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and a severe seizure disorder – often having up to ten grand mal seizures daily. In the early part of her life she lived in state institutions – Damasch Hospital and the Fairview Hospital and Training Center before moving to Tillamook in 1982 where she lived in a Marie Mills Center Group Home and participated in its day activity program. At first it was a challenge for Deborah after having lived in an institution for many years, but she had a stubborn grit about her which would serve her very well in the years to come making her bloom into the “rose” she became, which inspired many others. It all started in 1988 when Debora had the opportunity to work on a Marie Mills Center crew at the Tillamook Country Smoker. There were many doubts at first as Deborah had severe seizures and had never worked a day in her life. She eventually retired from the Smoker in June of 2010 after having worked there successfully for 22 years. Deborah’s “rose” continued to bloom after she started working at the Tillamook Country Smoker. In 2005 she moved from her group home into her own supported living apartment and lived a more independent life. By this time no one doubted what she could do because of her grit and determination. Surprisingly, by this time her seizure disorder was a distant memory with her having maybe one seizure a year and in some years none. Getting great medical support from her
physician helped with this, but what also helped was Deborah feeling good about herself, her life, and her many accomplishments. One thing was missing in Deborah’s life that could make her circle complete, and that was finding and developing a relationship with her family after many years. She remembered her sisters name and in 1999 her good friend Bob Ouzounian helped her search a Portland phone book and on the first try she located her sister Michelle who had also been searching to find her for many years. Finding Deborah also made Michelle and her family’s circle complete. Deborah enjoyed a great relationship with her big sister Michelle who visited with her and was in contact with her often, and with her nieces Christy, Angie, and Caroline. Deborah liked to do many things. She enjoyed monthly dinner outings with Bob. She enjoyed going on vacation trips. She loved being kidded and giving it back tenfold. She was a devout Catholic and never missed doing weekly communion. She liked going for rides to the beach, dressing up for outings, attending picnics and other group outings. She loved talking about her siblings, shopping, talking about her work at the Smoker, and just sitting back in her recliner watching TV and relaxing. She also enjoyed visiting and talking to her good friends Jerry and Maxine Richter, who she became very close to over the years. Deborah will be missed greatly and is loved by many. She is an example to all that if we are willing to climb that tall mountain and face our personal adversities head on, anything is possible. A memorial service honoring Deborah’s life will be scheduled at a later date.

Ida’s 7 children, her sister Nina, her cousins, and nieces and nephews will miss her forever.

Ida’s professional career included bookkeeping/accounting for the private sector, and for International Paper, Tillamook County Road Department, and Pacific City Joint Water and Sanitary. She also served as a Tillamook County Commissioner for four years. Ida was an accomplished artist, writer, singer, and loved to bowl in leagues in her younger days. She enjoyed family time most of all, and was also proud to be a third generation Tillamook County resident, having attended
high school in Cloverdale. Our mom will be remembered for her loving heart, wiggly hugs, sharp wit, amazing sense of humor, and the ability to make anyone feel at home. In her last few months as she navigated her memory issues, Ida had a special angel watching over her in the form of her precious granddaughter, Jen Duran. Jen’s unconditional love for her Grammy will always be remembered and cherished. The family will hold a celebration of Ida’s life at a later time when the gathering of her large, loving family will be safe for all.

Staff are also fielding numerous calls from nonresidents inquiring about plans come to Oregon to hunt or fish. “ODFW believes this action restricting non-residents will help local communities enforce the restrictions on out-of-state travelers violating the order, and putting
local resources and residents at risk,” Melcher. said “We appreciate everyone’s understanding at this difficult time and look forward to seeing you outdoors again in the future when this passes.” ODFW anticipates there will be opportunity for nonresidents who have already purchased a 2020 license to participate in hunting, fishing or shellfish opportunities later in the year. ODFW will refund non-resident spring bear and spring turkey tags and reinstate preference points for spring bear hunters. Please contact Licensing at odfw.websales@state. or.us or at 503-947-6101 to arrange for a refund. Nonresidents interested in applying for a fall controlled hunt may still apply online at https://odfw.huntfishoregon. com/login and the deadline to apply remains May 15, 2020. Oregon residents who do
choose to hunt, fish, crab or clam are reminded: Stay close to home rather than travelling far. Gov. Kate Brown’s executive order says hunting and fishing are OK, but to limit travel. Practice social distancing and stay six feet away from anyone who doesn’t live in your immediate household, including when outdoors. Check access where you are headed as the area may be closed. State Parks are closed, counties have closed some parks and boat ramps, beach access is closed in some areas and national forests and BLM lands have closed recreation sites. Stay home if you are sick. Carry needed supplies with you to minimize nonessential stops—including buying your license/tag online instead of making a trip to a license sale agent if possible and bringing all needed food, water and sanitization supplies with you.

OHA reports 53 people have died in the state after being infected, and another 321 are hospitalized with 50 requiring ventilators who have confirmed or suspected COVID-19 symptoms. The number of coronavirus test kits available in the county is unconfirmed but said to be limited. The turnaround time for test results ranges from 2 to 13 days, according to Dr. Melissa Paulissen, health officer, Tillamook County Public Health Department. Paulissen confirmed that Public Health is seeing and testing patients who exhibit COVID-19 symptoms. Paulissen said in an email Public Health doesn’t know how many tests overall have been conducted because tests happen at multiple sites. She said the timeline for receipt of the results is dependent on the lab and which testing facility specimens are sent to by LabCorp. Rapid testing is reportedly not available in Tillamook County. County commissioners voted Friday, April 3, to budget $50,000 for the Public Health Department to purchase COVID-19 supplies. The county emergency
management team accepted a shipment of protective equipment from the OHA the following day. It was the second delivery that week. The protective equipment was for distribution within the county in accordance with an OHA directive. Cherie Plaisted, Adventist Health Tillamook public information officer, said the hospital is conducting COVID-19 testing as recommended by OHA and CDC guidelines, including testing members of the public, patients and healthcare workers. Plaisted said the hospital’s coronavirus testing capacity is “congruent with current demands.” Plaisted provided a summary of CDC and OHA guidelines that Adventist Health bases its testing protocols on: PRIORITY 1: Ensures optimal care options for all hospitalized patients, lessen the risk of healthcare-associated infections, and maintain the integrity of the U.S. healthcare system • Hospitalized patients • Healthcare facility workers with symptoms PRIORITY 2: Ensures those at highest risk of complication of infection are rapidly identified and appropriately triaged • Patients in long-term care facilities with symptoms
construction,” Bradley said. “We will also need to mitigate; we don’t know to what extent yet.” Depending on the source of the moisture from the cement slab, mitigation might include outside drainage improvements, Bradley said. One of the three main moisture test spots is near a back entrance that gets the weather. “On that one it is clear that there was water intrusion near the doorway,” Bradley said. Except in the back door/hall, the port has not been able to identify why this issue has recently started.
Bradley has notified the board and will be contacting the consultant for a contractor list for next steps. Bradley said the original testing was done in each office area, lobby, outside, etc. In the back hallway, the mold is just within the hall area and into the lower area of the drywall behind the cove/baseboard. “This will also have to be mitigated,” Bradley said. “It is sealed for now and poses no threat to staff.” Bradley cited the testing consultant, ServPro, who said given that they have both sealed the mold im-

populations, should they prove to have COVID-19. 4. Limited testing of symptomatic outpatients. The Tillamook County Public Health Department reported March 29 there was a third positive case of coronavirus in the county. The person who was diagnosed is a south-county resident over the age of 65-years-old who was reportedly hospitalized in the Portland area. On March 28, Public Health announced the second coronavirus case in the county, a north-county resident who was recovering at home under quarantine. The second person with COVID-19 in Tillamook County was not reported to be a contact of the county’s first positive case. The county’s first case of coronavirus was reported March 26. That person is a health care provider between 35 and 54 years old who works at Tillamook County Community Health Centers and was recovering at home. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) is recommending simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for

illamook County officials revealed that a $300,000 ransom was paid to regain data access after a cyberattack. The ransom amount was disclosed during the Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting Wednesday, March 11. Commissioner Bill Baertlein, reading from a prepared statement, said it could have taken 12-24
months and cost $1 million to unlock the county’s computer system if a ransom went unpaid. “The county’s rapid and aggressive response to the incident mitigated the compromise and contained the encryption to 17 of 55 servers and five of 280 county workstations,” Baertlein said. The attack was reportedly carried out by an international cybercriminal organization known to law enforcement both nationally and internationally. The prepared county

adding that new security measures were being implemented. “The county made every effort to avoid the payment of a ransom to the cyber attacker, including recovery through two independent backup solutions and hundreds of hours of retained and county resources; however, data critical to county operations could not be restored without paying the cyberattacker for decryption keys,” Baertlein said. “While the county maintained redundant backup solutions that would
have protected our data in the event of a natural disaster, the cyberattack resulted in encrypted backups,” Baertlein said. Commissioner Mary Faith Bell emphasized that the government was the victim of a crime, noting a new frontier of security hazards in the digital age.

Ron Wyden and 16 colleagues have asked the CDC to publicly report all available information about who can get COVID-19 tests, which continue to be scarce nationally. They requested data by sex, race, ethnicity, whether a patient is a healthcare provider and any other available demographics. The CDC is currently only disclosing a subset of its data, primarily the age groups of those testing positive, hospitalizations and fatalities. Other public health organizations are also limiting the release of data, citing the need to protect patient identities.

Cloth masks fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure. A significant portion of individuals with coronavirus lack symptoms and that even those who eventually develop symptoms can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms. This means that the virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity even if those people are not exhibiting symptoms. Gov.

Most county offices will close to the public, operating by phone and email instead. Tillamook County Commissioner Bill Baertlein said the declaration was necessary due to the rapidly developing situation around COVID-19. Commissioners Mary Faith Bell and David Yamamoto agreed with the necessity. No COVID-19 cases have been confirmed in the county at this time. “Are we going to be infected,” Yamamoto said. “I can tell you pretty much yes, we will.” Votes for a resolution declaring the emergency and enacting a contingency plan passed unanimously.
Yamamoto said. Concerned about the impact of a possible COVID-19 spread in the area, Bell said with only a few intensive care beds, Tillamook County lacks the capacity to handle a serious outbreak. Access to the Tillamook County Courthouse will be screened. County department offices at the courthouse will serve the public by appointment. The Community Development office will close to the public but will serve people by phone and email.

The Port of Tillamook Bay Board of Commissioners held a special meeting Thursday, April 2, via conference call. The board discussed an odor that has been in the office at the port that was tested, with additional testing conducted on April 6. General Manager Michele Bradley said additional testing will be done on April 6, which will be a 24-hour test for moisture. There is evidence of moisture between the
concrete slab and carpet. Secretary Matt Mumford asked who installed the carpet and if they sealed it or not. Bradley said not all of the carpet was done at the same time. Two sweeps of carpet were added on later. On April 10, Bradley said the port has received the technical report and some recommendations from trying to determine the musty smell in the office. “Some mold was detected, so now we need to find the source, which is believed to be coming up from under the slab on grade

An accurate count is important so that we on the rural Oregon coast get our share of representation in national government, and so that we receive a fair portion of federally funded programming.

If only we could all tune in for that! The Klobases took a drive to Astoria, checking out bridges and hikes. One of Spike’s favorite bridges is the little 102-foot Chasm bridge at Neahkahnie, built in 1937 by the WPA. It is made of reinforced concrete deck girder
and has a lovely arch of stone. That bridge is one Spike can see from back home in Cape Meares, given a clear day and her big binoculars. The Smiths’ son, Mikiah, and his family were looking for a way both to have fun while staying home in Corvallis and to include grandparents Patti and Mike in Cape Meares and Mikiah’s sister, Angie, and her family in Molalla. They came up with “dress for dinner week.” They chose themes for four nights of the week: Monday was the ’70s; Tuesday formal attire; Thursday the Wild, Wild West in honor of Kenny
Roger’s passing; and Friday monochromatic night. They viewed each other’s attire via FaceTime and had a ton of fun. What are you doing to stay in touch with loved ones during this pandemic?

Someone (Mommy?) had drawn the picture for her and she was clutching it tightly. “Are you out looking for unicorns; have you found any?” I called back across the street. “No, not today,” she replied, looking down. But then her mother said, “How about the other day, under the rainbow?” The little girl brightened up. “Yes,” she exclaimed, “I saw them in the puffy white clouds under the rainbow!” There is still much beauty in life; we are limited only by our imaginations.

So, while we are quarantined, we have been really busy painting and doing yard work. But this morning I wanted to watch the last City Council Meeting. I know if you have Spectrum you can watch the meetings on Channel 4, but if you don’t have Spectrum, there are other options. I watched it on my smart phone. I googled Jane Scott
Video Productions-Tillamook County TV Online. One you are there, click on Video On Demand. There are many choices of meetings to watch, but look for the Rockaway Beach Council Meetings. If you are like us, you are pretty busy, and council meetings are low on our list of things to do, but oh my, watch them monthly. You will be amazed how hard these folks work.
As of late, several emergency meetings have not been taped, but if you are interested, contact our city hall. You can be involved. Again, a huge thanks to all that are keeping our city working. You are all awesome! “There are so many beautiful reasons to be happy.” That’s Rockaway Beach, “Sugar Coated!”

GARDENING MATTERS
N
on April 17th, and I just found out I am a year older than I thought I was. Actually, both Dale and I were mistaken on our age. I guess we quit counting at 60. We found out we are elderly with the Covid 19 guidelines, and that was a shocker. We simply don’t feel old. Actually, we are closer to 70 than 60 now. Giggle, a little too close for comfort.

e honest, be just, and fear not. Hew to the line, and let the chips fall where they may.” - Tillamook Headlight, 1888
www.TillamookHeadlightHerald.com/subscribe 503-842-7535
Having said all that, TCMGA is not the only organization that has had to postpone or even cancel fundraising activities. Its pretty hard when you can’t get more than a few relatives in a room together to hold a silent auction, fundraising dinner, or a plant sale to raise the money you need to operate for the next few months. If you are in a position to do so, get out that check book or credit card and donate to a charitable organization of your choice. It could be regional like the Oregon Zoo, Street Roots, or the Oregon Food Bank. Locally, organizations like the Bay City Arts Center, Tides of Change, Helping Hands Reentry Outreach, Habitat for Humanity, and, of course, the Master Gardeners, could all use additional money for their programs. If you don’t feel you want to help in that way, find a neighbor that could use a little extra money and put it in the mail to them. Anything you can do to help a neighbor – even one you don’t know – will make you feel better and like you are accomplishing something important. And you are. And this is a time we need to be looking out for one another. If we can’t get together physically, we can reach out with an email or
a phone call and check on folks who might need a friendly voice to calm them. Even people who are as naturally optimistic as I am can be troubled with the constant barrage of news every day. This is especially true of those living alone. As gardeners, we have an upper hand and are able to grow our own food if we need to. We also have the benefit of working at a task that is both relaxing and physically challenging to keep us healthy. There is nothing like an afternoon of pulling weeds or pruning shrubs to make us feel more connected to the earth. Plant an extra row of veggies in your gardens this year and share. This will be the defining moment in many of our lives, similar to our grandparents and great-grandparents during the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl of the 1930’s and the Greatest Generation in World War II. How we deal with it as a community and as a nation will live in the history books in years to come. Let’s put aside our baser instincts of survival and reach out as human beings to help others. It’s not the best way, it’s the only way our country and communities will endure. Be safe. Stay healthy. Take care.
Self-service at Oregon gas stations extended The Office of State Fire Marshal (OSFM) has extended a temporary rule change that allows Oregon gas stations to provide self-service on a voluntary basis, in order to address shortages of workers experienced by gas retailers statewide. The rules change was first announced on March 28 with an expiration date of April 11. On Friday, April 10, State Fire Marshal Jim Walker extended the deadline to April 25. “We appreciate the patience of all Oregonians and businesses with this temporary suspension of rules, which now allow for self-service at Oregon gas stations,” Walker said. “These changes provide station operators flexibility to manage their
operations and help to make refueling safer for both customers and service station attendants, while keeping stations open at a critical time when COVID-19 is impacting gas retailers who serve our many essential workers statewide.” The change allows station attendants to help these customers while avoiding face-to-face, hand-to-hand contact. It also applies physical distancing measures. Attendants will continue to sanitize equipment and fuel nozzles and continue to help customers with their refueling as needed. Self-service is not mandatory, but having it as an option allows some gas stations to continue their operations with less staff and allows Orego-
nians who have to travel to still drive without concern they may not be able to find gas. Unattended self-service is permitted when a gas station owner exhausts all staffing options. Stations that do not have an attendant on duty are required to post safety signs for physical distancing and instructions showing customers how to operate a fuel pump correctly. This extension of the selfservice rules change does not affect areas of the state that are already authorized for selfservice refueling under Oregon law. Information about the extended rules change for selfservice gasoline can be found on the OSFM website.

Tillamook County resident raises funds for Oregon Food Bank Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@countrymedia.net Tillamook County resident Jan Boal has started a fundraiser for Oregon Food Bank Tillamook County Services, which serves all of Tillamook County. The Oregon Food Bank is dedicated to ensuring everyone has access to safe, nutritious food in the wake of COVID-19. Boal is a nurse who likes to be active in the community. She started following the Tillamook County COVID19 Volunteer Group Facebook page when it was first starting up. The page lists volunteers and people can make requests. “People can kind of communicate who they can help and of course seeing more and more requests for stuff from the food bank, and then I thought, you know, this is going to
go on for a while, and our area has a high poverty rate as it is, and that’s even with families working,” Boal said. Nobody in this county should go hungry, Boal said. She contacted one of the Facebook admin’s, Laura Swanson. Swanson got Boal in contact with Melissa Carlson-Swanson, branch services manager at Oregon Food Bank Tillamook County Services. The fundraiser was originally going to be a GoFundMe page. “She talked to her team and there’s another site that works with nonprofits so there’s not as much of a fee to pay,” Boal said. “The fees are by donation as well.” All money raised goes to the food bank. People who donate can also choose to throw in a few extra dollars to go to service fees. Boal also believes there is people in the community who want to help but are unsure how. More than 860,000 people rely on Oregon
Food Bank’s network each year – and in times of crisis, that number grows as many of the support mechanisms they usually rely on are put on hold. Schools and community centers have closed, creating a gap in meals for countless family. Every 10 dollars donated goes to 40 pounds of food, making 30 meals possible. Boal hopes to raise $5,000. “So far in just two days, we raised about $1,500 and the goal was $5,000,” Boal said. “And it’s for two weeks that this fundraiser will go on for.” As of press time, the fundraiser has raised $1,621. Boal is also a member of an organization that does fundraisers for scholarships for local girls and women. She sent a post out to the other members of the Facebook group, challenging them to meet her donation. People like to feel like they are a part of something.
“Nobody should go hungry here,” Boal said. The slogan for the fundraiser is a combination of what the slogan is for the Oregon Food Bank and what Boal added. The slogan is ‘no one should go hungry, support your community during these difficult days one meal at a time.’ “As a nurse you have to feed people so they can stay well,” Boal said. As one of Oregon’s Food Bank’ locations, Tillamook County Services distributes food to 30 hunger-relief agencies and programs throughout the county. Donations can be made at https://give. oregonfoodbank.org/fundraiser/2728148 or mailed to Jan Boal, 24820 Tony Creek Rd, Beaver OR 97108. Make checks out to Oregon Food Banks, with Tillamook County printed in the memo.
Port of Tillamook Bay discusses COVID-19 pandemic Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@ countrymedia.net The Port of Tillamook Bay Board of Commissioners discussed what the port is doing in response to COVID-19 in a special meeting held April 2. The Port of Tillamook Bay, including the main office, Tillamook Airport, and Tillamook Air Museum, has modified public hours and other changes. The port has closed the Tillamook Air Museum and do not know when it will reopen. General Manger Michelle Bradley said this was the only department that had to close. Museum Director Rita Welch said the last day open was March 16. Secretary Matt Mumford asked about a business loan that could turn into a grant. “Whether it’s a grant or a loan that turns into a grant, we just don’t know what that looks like yet,” Bradley said. President Jack Mulder said the pandemic is not something that is going to end at the end of April and things will go back to normal. Physical distancing is something that is here to stay for some time and could go on for a year or two, he said. “We just have a lot of unknowns as we look forward,” Mulder said. Bradley said five laptops have been ordered for supervi-
sors, so they are set up to work from home. Port Staff Administrator Pami Boomer said the new law for sick leave with pay started April 1. Supervisors have been talking about keeping employees working as long as possible. All staff is still coming out the port at some point every day. Mulder said people who need to go into the office for projects will go in when they need to. Commissioner Sierra Lauder said directors are rotating in. She asked if they should be doing more to encourage working from home. The workload itself has shrunk. She is worried about people standing in the break room at the same time. “My concern for the workload is everybody has their own tasks,” Bradley said. Mumford asked about masks and cleaning supplies. “We don’t have masks but we do have gloves, we do have cleaning, and we’re doing a couple times a day a full cleaning,” Bradley said. “And that’s throughout the whole building.” The port staff know they cannot pass each other in the hallway as it is only five feet wide. Lauder asked how the museum moves forward in anticipation of lost revenue. She wondered about running a special for annual member-
ships and asked if there are opportunities to try and get some revenue. The port is incorporating new laws as they come into place. Regarding rent abatement, Bradley said they cannot force any commercial tenants out in the next 90 days. Only Silkwood Fitness asked for rent abatement. “The governor ordered executive order 20-13, which talks about what we can or cannot do,” Boomer said. Tenants have to ask in advance for the abatement and provide proof that it is COVID-19 related. They are required to pay what they can. The guidance is coming from the governor’s office. Boomer has postponed the budget meeting and will be sending an updated budget calendar to the commissioners. The board talked about the new telework policy. They have never talked about telework in the past. Boomer got the policy from the Port of Newport, who provided the template. A lot of other groups are using it as well. “My biggest concerns are around data security and maintenance of public records,” Mulder said. Bradley said the system works through either the desktop in the office or through the laptop accessing the desktop through the VPN. It is the same security as in the office from the server.
Meals for Seniors needs emergency funding Meals for Seniors, of Rockaway Beach is facing an emergency. The Covid-19 virus has had a devastating effect on its funding and officials are seeking donations. “In the days ahead we will face much uncertainty,” Theresa Bruneau, board president said. “All of our sources of on-going funding have either slowed or dried up and our own fundraisers have had to be cancelled.” The board of directors for Meals for Seniors is making a plea for donations which can be made through their website, www.mealsforseniorsrockawaybeach.org. Checks could also be mailed to Meals for Seniors at P.O.
Box 852, Rockaway Beach OR 97136. Meals for Seniors is a 501 (C) (3) and donations are deductible to the extent allowed by law. In 2019 the organization prepared 13,914 meals, of which 8,123 were delivered to the most vulnerable citizens, those who are home bound and fixed income senior citizens. “We will never give up on our vulnerable seniors and hope our neighbors, friends and family will be able to help us through these very difficult times,” Bruneau added. “Please consider a donation.”
Tillamook County receives grant from CARES Act support their work responding to COVID-19 in their communities. The $12.4 million in federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) grants from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Eco-
person meetings are allowed at your house or your alternative work site,” Bradley said. Lauder was concerned about equipment being purchased from the port, rather
than a stipend, and having to pay for damages. “I do believe we have an equipment replacement in the personnel policy,” Bradley said.

Eating well - the take-out edition R
estaurants are closed for dining in right now, but many in Tillamook County are open for TakeOut. In fact the Tillamook Chamber of Commerce has compiled a list, Take Out Time, with restaurants, hours and phone numbers. You can even join the Facebook group “Tillamook Coast Takeout + Delivery” for menus and specials. This is an important time to support your local businesses. It is also a great opportunity to Eat Well. It may feel like time to binge eat or stress eat, but eating well is important now in order to help you and everyone in your house stay healthy and well. We are here to help! In January, we posted the following article, “Eating Out and Eating Well.” We’ve made a few edits for take-out and are sharing it again with you now. Remember safe food handling to avoid the spread of disease. Wash your hands before touching food. Eating Out and Eating Well – Take-Out Edition The Dietary Guidelines for Americans show us that most Americans typically do not get enough vegetables, dairy, whole grains and even fruit. While most get too much sugar, fat, salt and too many calories. Using MyPlate as your guide, even when you are ordering take-out can help you choose well. A simple way to approach food choices is to think about the food groups pictured in MyPlate. When you order, think about what you’ve already

eaten that day and what you might eat the rest of the day. What’s missing? What can you choose so that at the end of the day, your virtual MyPlate will be balanced and full, but not overflowing? Here are a few tips for things to think about when you order: • Boost fruits and veggies. • Ask for extra veggies. • Add or substitute red, orange, or dark green vegetables whenever you can. Try arugula or spinach instead of lettuce, even on a burger. • Get the most from side dishes. Try green salad, fruit, corn, beans, or vegetable soup. Order as part of your take-out meal, or keep these foods in your fridge or pantry to serve with your meal. • If you are going to eat dessert, choose pie, cobbler or other food where fruit is the main ingredient. • Increase whole grains. • Ask for whole wheat sandwich bread, burger buns, Source: California Department of Health Services, Healthy Latino Recipes: Made with Love, California Latino 5-a-Day Campaign Cilantro, lime juice, and green onions add a delightful taste to this corn side dish. Ingredients • 2 cup corn (frozen and thawed) • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies (10 ounce) • 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
n CARES Continued from Page 9 by this public health crisis. “Front-line health care providers working round-theclock in community clinics throughout the state to keep Oregonians healthy during a global pandemic need support in real time,” Wyden said. “Much more needs to be done, but I am gratified these grants will be going to help Oregon’s health care heroes perform their life-anddeath duties in every nook and cranny throughout our state.” “We all owe an unimaginable debt to the dedicated health professionals who are working hard on the frontlines of the coronavirus crisis,” said Merkley. “Every day, they are reporting to hospitals and clinics in every corner of our state to take care of our fellow Orego-
tortillas or pizza crusts. • Look for deli salads with grains like bulgur, quinoa, wheat berries and even brown rice. • Add dairy. • Add a slice of cheese to a sandwich or burger. • Order a carton or bottle of milk. • Enjoy a bowl of chowder. • Choose yogurt or a yogurt parfait. • Order a latte. • Reduce added sugar. • Instead of soda, order milk, 100% juice or unsweetened iced tea with lemon. • Skip the cookies, or have just one. Here are some ways you can put these tips into action: • Chicken teriyaki? Ask for extra veggies on the side. For a family, order a large chicken teriyaki and a salad to share. • Craving that delicious macaroni and cheese? Great! Order a cup of tomato soup to go with it and save half (or more!) of the macaroni and
cheese for tomorrow’s lunch. • Ordering a peperoni and cheese pizza? Add peppers and onions. Order salad to eat with the pizza. • Thinking about Thai food? Many of the dishes are full of veggies with great lean protein choices. Beef noodle soup, curry, and pad Thai are great choices and ask for extra veggies. • Hungry for an awesome burger? Enjoy it, but request extra pickles, lettuce, tomato, or onion. You could also order a small or kid size burger and a salad. Make it a cheeseburger. Think about ordering one burger for two people. • Ask your favorite coffee drive-thru for a mocha that is half-sweet. • Ordering a burrito? Request extra pico de gallo and whole beans instead of refried. Need more dairy? Order extra cheese. Too many calories? Skip the rice. • Is it barbeque day? Don’t skip the coleslaw. Made with cabbage and carrots, coleslaw counts as a vegetable. • Grabbing a quick sub sandwich? Order whole wheat bread and extra veggies like spinach and bell peppers. Grab a bottle of milk to make it a meal. Take Out Time, can also be Eating Well time. Let MyPlate be your guide, try some new options and find what is right for you. For more local health and wellness information, follow Tillamook County Wellness on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
• 1 tablespoon lime juice • 1/3 cup green onion (sliced) • 2 tablespoon cilantro (fresh chopped) Directions 1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. 2. Mix well. This recipe and many more can be found at choosemyplate.gov. nians. Now, it’s our job to support them, by making sure that they have the resources they need to treat patients and keep themselves safe. I’m pleased that these grants will help us deliver on that promise—and I’m going to keep doing everything I can to secure additional resources going forward.” The HHS grants will be distributed in Oregon as follows: • Asher Community Health Center, Fossil, $522,350 • Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center, Hillsboro, $1,578,245 • Lincoln County, $608,360 • Multnomah County, $1,763,780 • Rinehart Medical Clinic, Wheeler, $522,680 • Native American Rehabilitation Association, Portland, $581,345 • Columbia River Community Health Services, Boardman, $600,230

We were all made for more. More love. More hope. More connection. And now more than ever, it’s important for us to stay connected. In times of uncertainty we pull together as a community, and together we can overcome anything.

Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale.
