Law enforcement agents shot and killed a murder suspect following a disturbance at a Scappoose business. The incident began just before 10 a.m. Thursday, March 31, as Oregon State Police (OSP) troopers and Columbia County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) deputies responded to a disturbance involving a suspect at Grumpy’s Towing at 53279 Columbia River Highway in Scappoose. As law enforcement officers arrived on scene, witnesses said they ordered the armed suspect involved to put down his weapon, according to a KOIN report. The suspect, later identified as 39-year-old Michael Stockton, fired multiple shots at two law enforcement officers, and the officers returned fire, hitting Stockton, according to investigators. No officers were injured during the gunfire. Multiple law enforcement agencies, including St. Helens and Scappoose Police also responded to the incident. Officers at the scene rendered aid to Stockton until medical personnel could take over. Stockton was later pronounced deceased. Following the shooting, investigators located two different handguns in Stockton’s possession confirming he fired multiple shots in the direction of the law enforcement officers, according to Washington County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) Detective Shannon Wilde. The WCSO is the lead investigating agency in the Scappoose shooting. During the investigation, officers learned that Stockton was wanted by Gresham Police for the fatal shooting of a 25-year-old man at a storage facility in Gresham, according to Wilde. Investigators said the shooting March 31 in

As the primary election draws near, four candidates are vying for the open Columbia County commissioner seat. One of these four candidates Jonathan Barclay, Brian Brust, Kelly Niles, and Kellie Smith - will replace Position #2 held by Henry Heimuller, a former paramedic and longtime resident of Columbia County. Heimuller was first elected to represent the board in Nov. 2010 and has served three four-year terms. As a voice for Columbia County, Heimuller prioritized tourism and public health. The Chronicle reached out to Commissioner Heimuller too find out why he has decided not to run for reelection, we have not recieved a response as of press time. Commissioners serve four-year terms. This year’s primary election is set for May 17, 2022, followed by the Nov. 8 general election.

That’s just an example of why I think we’re making decisions in a vacuum.” “It seems like everybody in the county is operating independently,” he added. “I would like to see us work together more instead of against each other.” Niles also said he would like to see more family-wage jobs, additional law enforcement, and infrastructure upgrades introduced to Columbia County. In preparation for the May primary, Niles advises Columbia County residents to do two things: get out and vote and do your research. On Friday, March 25 at 6 p.m., Niles held a town hall at the Big River Taproom on 305 Strand Street in St. Helens. Niles said he has raised approximately $700 for his campaign. He hopes to raise a total of $3,000 to $5,000. See Niles’ full bio at thechronicleonline.com.

I want them to be in the position and a good representation of our community,” Smith said. “It just felt like at the end of the day that I’m homegrown, I’m here, I care about everyone, and I was the best one for the job.” As a volunteer for Connect St. Helens, Columbia County Sheriff’s Office, and St. Helens sports leagues, Smith believes she has insight into the issues that impact Columbia County residents. Smith also highlighted interpersonal skills as being one of her strongest attributes. As commissioner, Smith said her focus would be on jobs, roads, and increasing support for public safety. “We only have Highway 30 to get into our area,” she said. “If (only) we could have more businesses out here so that people could live out here, play out here kind of thing. I know that’s everybody’s theme, but that is true.” Roads are increasingly dangerous, Smith explained, and the traffic accidents will need to be addressed, along with 24-hour policing. “The 24-hour service that we get from the county sheriff and our first responders in general, they don’t have enough support. I think that that’s possible within the county budget,” she said. Taking a stance against political

Columbia County Public Utility Districts (PUDs) are warning customers of a renewed and threatening telephone scam. “Over the past week we have had several customers alert us that someone is calling them, saying they had 15 minutes to pay the money demanded or their power would be shut off,” Clatskanie PUD’s Sarah Johnson said. “It is very threatening.” Columbia River PUD’s Kyle Boggs said his agency is also taking calls from customers about the phone fraud. “We hear about scam calls going around pretty regularly. In fact, we received a handful of reports just yesterday (March 29),” he said. According to Boggs, the scam calls have become more sophisticated. “One customer said she was told by the scammer that she’d be transferred to an automated system where she could punch in her credit card information,” he said. “Scammers also use Caller ID to their advantage. They have spoofed our name, so that when their call appears on a customer’s phone it shows up as Columbia River PUD from a local phone number.” Boggs agrees with Johnson’s description that the current fraud calls are threatening. “Typically, scammers will threaten customers with immediate disconnection of their power if they don’t make a payment,” he said. “Sometimes they request prepaid credit cards or gift cards, which is something we do not do.” In fact, both PUDs issue letters and work closely with customers to deal with any payment issues. “We have a very definite process with letters and a reminder phone call,” Johnson said. “And we ask that they call back to our main phone number. We would never call and say you need to pay us immediately,” Johnson said. “If a customer is actually facing disconnection, we will reach out to them multiple times in different ways before actually disconnecting their power,” Boggs said. “We do not disconnect someone immediately. We offer ways to work with our customers to make payment arrangements as well.” Both Boggs and Johnson urge customers to not to be deceived by the fraud calls. “Any time a customer has the slightest bit of doubt about the authenticity of a call, they should hang up and call us directly,” Boggs said. “We won’t take offense if they hang up on us inadvertently in an attempt to stay safe from a scammer.” Johnson said the scam calls “come in spurts.” “It’s been about six months since the last one,” she said. “They target different areas. There will be a big rash of calls and then it dies down and then there are more such fraud calls.” According to Johnson, there have been customers who have lost money through the fraud calls. “In the past, there have been times that people have paid the scammers and there could be more who have just not admitted they were victims,” she said. Johnson and Boggs urge customers to call law enforcement if they have been an actual fraud victim. The fraud calls aren’t limited to public utility companies. In February 2020, the St. Helens Police Department (SHPD) issued a warning about persons making similar threatening phone calls.

Adrien Bennings selected as PCC president STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
Portland Community College’s (PCC) Board of Directors has selected Adrien Bennings as the college’s next president by unanimous vote, April 4, following a nine-month national search. Bennings will replace Mark Mitsui, who is retiring at the end of June after serving as PCC’s president since 2016. The search process relied on a 23-member committee, chaired by board directors Tiffani Penson (PCC Board vice chair) and Dan Saltzman, that advised the PCC Board on candidates and procedures. Feedback from the college community and external stakeholders, based on public forums with each of the finalists, was also considered before the PCC Board made its decision Monday night.
“We were tremendously impressed by Dr. Bennings’ passion for the transformative power of community colleges,” said Mohamed Alyajouri, chair of PCC’s Board of Directors. “Dr. Bennings brings demonstrated strengths as a strategic thinker and transparent decision maker; as a skilled and collaborative communicator, relationship builder and fundraiser; and as a strong advocate for equitable student success. “We believe that her special combination of strengths, skills and attributes will advance our college, enhance our culture, and benefit the students and communities we serve,” said Alyajouri. Bennings is currently the president of Kellogg Community College, one of 28 community colleges in Michigan whose service region spans three counties. She is also the president of the Kellogg Commu-

nity College Foundation, helping to lead the foundation’s strategic planning and fundraising activities, and advocating for equity, diversity, and inclusion. Bennings has taught courses in human resources development, academic development and retention,
and small business development. She has held progressively higher-level positions in higher education for more than 15 years. Before joining KCC, Bennings was the vice president of administration and finance and chief financial officer at Clovis Community College in New Mexico. Prior to this, she served as regional director of small business development at Texas Tech University where she advanced economic development initiatives spanning a 16-county area. Additionally, she serves as a certified peer reviewer for the Higher Learning Commission. The PCC Board’s decision to select Bennings makes her PCC’s first female president, permanently selected for the role. Sylvia Kelley, formerly PCC’s executive vice president, served as PCC’s interim president from 2015 to 2016 before Mitsui’s arrival. Kelley retired from her execu-
tive vice president role in October 2021. Alyajouri shared the PCC Board’s appreciation for the work of the presidential search advisory committee; for the leadership of Penson and Saltzman as search committee co-chairs; for the partnership of RH Perry & Associates, the search firm; and for the other finalists and candidates. He also thanked President Mitsui for nearly six years of exemplary work on behalf of the college. Bennings’ educational background includes a Doctor of Philosophy in Higher Education Administration from Texas Tech University; a Master of Science in Business Administration with a Human Resources concentration from Wayland Baptist University; and a Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Development from Texas A&M University.

Oregon 6th in nation for domestic terrorism STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
Over the past decade, Oregon witnessed the sixthhighest number of domestic violent extremism incidents in the nation, according to a new report issued by Oregon Secretary of State Shemia Fagan and the Oregon Audits Division (OAD). “The troubling increase of domestic violent extremism in recent years, both in Oregon and nationwide, indicates a clear risk to Oregonians that requires a strategic, informed response,” Fagan states in a release. The report addresses the risks of domestic terrorism and violent extremist attacks and identifies efforts Oregon state agencies can undertake to thwart such risks. “Oregon must be an inclusive place where everyone is and feels safe.” Fagan said. “The rise in domestic terrorism is an immediate threat to Oregonians and we cannot simply wait for the next incident to occur. We can and must take immediate steps
to prevent individuals at risk from being radicalized and becoming violent.” Auditors found the state lacks some of the tools present in the governance framework of other states. Key findings include:
• Oregon is one of only 16 states that does not have any legislation defining or criminalizing domestic terrorism or domestic violent extremism at the state level. Such legislation may provide the state with mechanisms to mitigate future risk. • The Oregon Homeland Security council is set up to govern the challenges, but it can do more to focus on domestic violent extremism by establishing a specific statewide strategy, with measurable outcomes, for countering violent extremism risks. • Identifying individuals at risk of becoming violent is critical to threat management. Current law enforcement and state employee training is limited. Increased opportunities for training statewide may increase ef-
fectiveness in identifying potential threats.
“Ultimately, Oregonians continue to be at risk from the trauma caused by these incidents, which can have lingering effects and may have a greater impact on communities already suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic or racial injustice,” Fagan said. “This continued trauma can impede the ability of individuals and communities to succeed, thrive, and enjoy their economic, social, and cultural rights.” While today’s report is not technically an audit under government auditing standards, it has undergone the same quality assurance process as an audit from OAD according to Fagan. “Issuing an advisory report allowed for a timelier project to recognize the impact on state agencies and other involved entities as other emergency events were being addressed,” Fagan said.

What a top federal government administrator saw during tours of hightech manufacturing plants in Scappoose and Portland could help strengthen Oregon’s job efforts. Oregon Congresswoman Suzanne Bonamici hosted U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh in the Oregon tours to highlight efforts to
increase access to quality, high-wage jobs. Walsh and Bonamici toured Portland Community College’s (PCC) new Training Center at the Oregon Manufacturing Innovation Center (OMIC) in Scappoose, March 24. Oregon Gov. Kate Brown and Oregon U.S. Rep. Earl Blumenauer joined them at the NECA-IBEW Training Center in Portland later that day. The group met with preapprentices, students, faculty,

and local labor leaders to discuss the importance of creating pathways to highwage manufacturing, clean energy, and construction jobs, especially for women, people of color, and others who have historically been left behind. “At the Department of Labor, we believe the ‘future of work’ is about job quality, equity, and access for all workers to good middle-class careers,” Walsh said. “Oregon is a proven leader in building equitable, diverse career path-
ways, and I was thrilled to witness a strong state-federal partnership at work.” Bonamici said that Oregon is addressing the skills gap by creating opportunities for more people to access quality jobs, and during the tours the group heard personal stories about how workforce training, pre-apprenticeships, and the trades are changing lives. “PCC at OMIC and Oregon Tradeswomen are doing important work to expand opportunities as we implement the new bipartisan infrastructure law, ramp up U.S. manufacturing, and transition to a clean energy economy,” she said. “I’m committed to working with Secretary Walsh to secure the federal resources we need to make these jobs available to more people, especially those who have historically been left behind.” Brown thanked Bonamici for convening a round table discussion following the tours on how the state and federal government can create more pathways to good-paying careers, particularly for women and people of color. “With strong state-federal partnerships, we have an opportunity to build a futureready workforce in Oregon,” Brown said.

$412 million for Oregon transportation
Tracking the Money Metro Creative Connection
$75 million will be used to repair damaged and unsafe roadways in Oregon. STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
Officials in Columbia County and cities such as St. Helens and Scappoose remain hopeful for a fair share of needed transportation funding through the 2021 federal government infrastructure package. The federal package allocated $1.2 billion in additional transportation funding for the entire state of Oregon over the next few years. Approximately $800 million of that spending is directed to specific purposes. The remaining $412 million was not specifically allocated. The Oregon Transportation Commission (OTC) has formally directed that the $412 million in flexible funds be invested in the following ways: • $95 million for improving accessibility for individuals with disabilities. • $30 million to fund new Safe Routes to Schools projects that make it safer for children to walk or roll to school. • $15 million to assist local governments to reduce transportation greenhouse gas emissions by planning climate-friendly communities. • $50 million to transform state-owned arterials in urban areas to reflect their status as community main streets and to make them safer to use for people walking near and traveling on these roads. • $50 million to complete a number of highway and interchange improvements to streamline the movement of goods. • $40 million in matching funds to help Oregon compete effectively for billions of dollars in competitive federal grant opportunities that will be awarded in the coming
years by the U.S. Department of Transportation. • $75 million to repair damaged and unsafe roadways in Oregon. • $7 million for business and workforce development to help grow small construction contracting firms and to increase the size and diversity of the construction workforce. • $10 million to fund a new mobility program that will work directly with community-based organizations to fund micro-mobility efforts with equity as a central priority of this pilot project. • $40 million to fund maintenance and operations activities which have become increasingly underfunded. With the commission’s investment decisions, combined with the federal funds directly allocated to other transportation investment categories, Oregon’s share of the federal infrastructure package will be divided as follows: • Sustainable and equitable transportation investments – 34%. • Highway, bridge, and other maintenance and repair projects – 36%. • State and local safety investments – 18%. • Americans with disabilities improvements – 8%. • Highway enhancements – 4%. “The Oregon Transportation Commission has directed investments that address some of the critical needs of our transportation system while also approving expenditures in areas focused on a more equitable, safe, resilient, and sustainable transportation system,” OTC Chair Robert Van Brocklin said. “We are grateful to our federal delegation for securing this funding. This isn’t the end of the conversation by any means.
We’ll need additional funding to truly build a network that delivers greater safety and resiliency, supports a strong economy, and protects our livability and natural environment. Our actions today are an important step toward reaching that goal.” The decision comes after months of public outreach and input. Legislators, mayors, city and county commissioners, and members of the public from across the state have testified before the commission, submitted written comments, and participated in online open houses sharing their perspectives and the extensive range of investment needs throughout Oregon. Many of the comments focused on investing in public and active transportation, preserving road and bridge safety, improving congestion bottlenecks, addressing the needs of urban arterials, and ensuring a statewide distribution of funds, according a release from the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). During its meeting Wednesday, March 30, the OTC provided approval to invest the federal funds. ODOT staff are determining the details of how the money will be distributed and will provide further details on the process for making specific expenditures in the coming weeks and months. About the OTC OTC establishes state transportation policy. The commission also guides the planning, development and management of a statewide integrated transportation network that provides efficient access, is safe, and enhances Oregon’s economy and livability. The commission meets monthly to oversee department activities relating to: • Highways • Public transportation • Rail • Transportation safety • Motor carrier transportation • Drivers and motor vehicles The governor appoints five commissioners, ensuring that different geographic regions of the state are represented. One member must live east of the Cascade Range; no more than three members can belong to one political party.

City of St. Helens Public Works crews are re-marking crosswalks and bicycle lanes.
‘Torch downs’ along local streets JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
You may have spotted members of the St. Helens Public Works crew along local streets over the past few weeks. “The crew is installing torch downs for the crosswalks and bicycle markings,” St. Helens Communication Officer Crystal King said. “This is different than our re-striping work which
takes place annually.” Torch downs are a type of durable, easy-to-apply plastic road markings that you heat in order to apply to the road, according to King. They come in preformed shapes. King said the city’s annual striping project in 2021 completed: • 96,624 linear feet of 4-inch yellow striping (18.3 miles) • 60,940 linear feet of
4-inch white striping (11.54 miles) • 59,099 linear feet of 8-inch white striping (11.2 miles)
“The paint and reflective products that we use are the standard waterborne paint used by the Oregon Department of Transportation’s striping crews,” King said. The city of St. Helens re-stripes the roads annually. Last year’s re-striping project cost was $21,506.

A healthy way to save for retirement Many expenses in life are unpredictable. But there are two things you know you’ll have to pay for: medical bills and retirement. You’ll probably need to take a variety of steps to meet these costs, but one financial instrument that can help is a health savings account (HSA). If you’re not familiar with an HSA, here are the basics: • Eligibility – If you are enrolled in a qualified high-deductible health plan (HDHP), you can generally contribute to an HSA. While HSAs are typically offered through employers, you can still open one if your employer doesn’t provide it, or if you’re self-employed, although you must have HDHP coverage. You also can’t be enrolled in another health insurance plan, other than those permitted, such as dental, vision, long-term care and disability insurance, and you can’t be enrolled in Medicare. Also, you can’t be claimed as a dependent on another person’s tax return. • Contribution limits – In 2022, you can put in up to $3,650 to an HSA if you have single coverage, or $7,300 for family coverage. And if you’re 55 or older, you can put in an extra $1,000 per year.
• Tax benefits – An HSA has triple tax advantages: Your contributions are made with pre-tax dollars, so they can reduce your taxable income for the year; your earnings grow tax-free; and your withdrawals are taxfree, provided the money is used for qualified medical expenses. (Withdrawals taken before age 65 that aren’t used for qualified medical expenses are taxable and subject to a 20% penalty; once you reach 65, the penalty no longer applies, although withdrawals are still taxable.) In addition to its providing tax benefits, an HSA can help you in other ways. Perhaps most significantly, your HSA can be an additional financial resource for your retirement. That’s because the money in your HSA can be carried over from year to year – you aren’t obligated to “use it or lose it.” So, the money not spent on annual medical expenses can continue to grow tax-deferred. Plus, an HSA is “portable” – it moves with you when you leave a job. Furthermore, unlike a 401(k) or a traditional IRA, an HSA does not require you to begin taking withdrawals once you reach 72 – you can leave your account untouched for essentially as long as you’d like. And while you may need to use
your HSA funds to meet your medical expenses in retirement – which can be considerable, even with Medicare – you can use what you don’t spend on medical costs for your other needs without penalty, once you reach age 65. (As mentioned above, any HSA withdrawals not used for qualified medical costs are taxable.) Here’s one other point to keep in mind: Your HSA likely contains investment options, along with a cash account. If you put all your funds in the cash account, as many people do, you might be depriving yourself of the growth opportunities provided by the investment options. On the other hand, of course, these investments generally carry more risk. One possible way to benefit from both parts of your HSA is to keep enough cash to cover your health insurance’s out-of-pocket maximum and invest the rest. As you can see, an HSA can help you in numerous ways. If you have access to one, consider taking advantage of it.

Columbia County 2022 Home & Garden Show STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
The Chronicle is proud to present the 2022 Columbia County Home & Garden Show April 23 and 24 at the Columbia County Fairgrounds. The show is sponsored by InRoads Credit Union. The Home & Garden Show is one of Columbia County’s biggest family-oriented events of the year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the last two shows were canceled. The 2022 show reemerges this spring and will feature a varied line-up of special guests and events. D.I.Y. with InRoads is bringing special guest Shannon Quimby to the show Saturday, April 23 for two live demonstrations. Quimby, with a worldwide television audience, is a well-known DIY expert, photo stylist and interior designer. Catch her on Create with Quimby on CBS and KOIN News AM Extra. In the following conversation, Quimby gives us insight into her passion and what we can expect during her presentation in St. Helens. The Chronicle: How did you get into this salvage Do It Yourself (DIY) business? Shannon Quimby: From day one, my family was very resourceful, creative and we always had a workshop. I
was taught to save it, fix it and if it couldn’t be fixed, change it into something else. We were “DIY” when it wasn’t popular. We reused, recycled and repurposed not because it was cool, but because we had very little money. Add that taught mentality of living rich with very little with parents who were always supportive of my exploring new ways to rethink, design and build things, it was a DIY win-win formula. Heck, at age nine I made my first furniture line for my sister’s Barbie dolls, all made from popsicle sticks. The Chronicle: What is the passion you have for the salvage DIY and what is it about this that captures your spirit? Quimby: Knowing there is no cap on creativity. I’ve always said, don’t worry, the DIY police will never give you a ticket for trying something new. Plus, recreating something that most think is worthless or junk, into a showstopper conversation piece. Example; my grandfather used empty baby food and mason jars to store nuts, bolts, screws and small parts under shelfing in his basement workshop. I took that same concept and mounted vintage jars under my upper kitchen cabinets. I call this DIY “Ode to Grandpa Buzz.” And to this day, it is one of the most popular DIYs featured on HGTV.
The Chronicle: What is your recommendation for homeowners and renters who want to recreate their living space? Where should they start, and can they recreate without spending a lot of cash?
Quimby: Oh, that’s a slam dunk easy answer. Paint It! Furniture, doors, cabinetry, floors, tables, you name it. It’s by far the most cost effective and freshens up any space in under a day. Another DIY idea that’s totally free is to shuffle and move around what you already have. A wood trunk can be a coffee table, bedside table or kids playbox. A family heirloom quilt can be artwork on a wall. That old ugly side chair? Cover it with a vintage tablecloth. How? Come to the Columbia County Home & Garden Show, and I’ll show you; it’s one of the many DIYs I’ll be sharing. Change your hardware. Hobby Lobby, World Market, and HomeGoods all have great selections that are really reasonable, pricewise. If you rent, just store the old hardware and replace when you move it. The Chronicle: What will your message be as you make your presentation at the Columbia County Home & Garden Show? Quimby: Use what you got to create something new. It’s original, it’s yours and

Voices of the Community Past feeble attempt I applaud Paul Nys’ letter last week on his description of the waste of resources in Columbia County’s past feeble attempt to build a hospital. After graduating college with a degree in accounting I worked as a Purchasing Agent/Accounts Payable for the Oregon Department of Human Services in three of their agencies. One was a psychiatric hospital with an average of 117 patients and another was a long-term care facility with 79 developmentally disabled clients. Purchasing personal items such as a toothbrush to a $32,000 heat exchanger for the hospital heating system; from flying in a podiatrist from Portland to negotiating a multi-million food service contract with monthly payments of $836,000; endlessly, sometimes 48 hours a week for seven years. In short, Columbia County was denied a hospi-
tal because of two factors. Location; routine medical care is available in Portland within the “Golden Hour,” and advanced trauma care is available in Portland within 25 minutes with a helicopter. 27,000 cars commute to Portland and Beaverton Metro areas per day because of the lack of jobs. I could write a 5,000-word legal brief but the facts above are plain and simple, my old bosses in Salem will not approve a hospital for Columbia County. And with the close of Boise Cascade and Armstrong Ceiling Tile, the reasons for denial have only grown. Joe Turner Columbia City
Time for energy independence
At the risk of sounding provincial, this puts a clear and immediate focus on our need for more local and renewable energy sources. We can do our part in reducing our reliance on foreign oil, now and in the future, by making renewable energy and alternative fuels a priority. And we can do it right here in the Pacific Northwest. The NEXT Renewables Diesel facility planned at Port Westward presents a domestic solution our energy needs. This innovative and forwardthinking facility will mitigate climate impacts and has an on-site wetland improvement project to enhance our local environment. The quality of our future depends on sustainable fuel solutions and a move towards energy independence. Embracing the NEXT Renewables project will help us get there. I hope you will join me in supporting important and timely opportunity.
Frankly, I’m a little spooked with fuel prices and immediate effect they are having on our economy.

Ginni Davis née Virginia Draper passed away Feb. 24, 2022 in St. Helens, Oregon after battling cancer. She was born to Irving and Marie (Faw) Draper, grew up in Yakima, Washington, and later attended Seattle University. She lived primarily in Washington, California and Oregon but spent the past 30 or so years in Columbia County, Oregon. She would be mortified if we published her age, so let’s just say that she was old enough to enjoy many years of book clubs and dinner dates with dear friends, of retirement and of watching her great-grandchildren start to grow up. Ginni had an opinion about everything - from politics to fashion to how something should be done correctly - and she was never shy about voicing it. She also had a gift of connecting with people wher-
ever she went, and complete strangers would share all sorts of personal tidbits with her. When she went out to eat, she would inevitably turn to the table next to her to ask about what they had ordered and whether or not they would recommend it. During a trip to France, she revealed that she was terrified of heights and sat on a bench below the Eiffel
Tower next to a Japanese tourist. They happily chatted for a good 45 minutes, even though they didn’t share a language. She knew her anesthesiologist’s life story by the time she was prepped for a hip surgery. As her family works on arrangements after her death, everyone they talk to in her community seems to know her, and every conversation starts with, “Oh, Ginni, I loved her!” Having worked various jobs throughout her life, Ginni finally found a way to combine her love of people, her creativity and her passion for beautiful things when she became the proud owner of the delightful gift shop Wicker Wonders from 2000 to 2009. She had a sharp eye for design, loved welcoming customers into her shop and was an active member in her local business community. Ginni is survived by her
daughter Colleen Swanson and son Mike Burns; grandchildren, Erica Kinsel, Tyler Burns and Cody Burns; great-grandchildren, Amelia, Elliott, Thomas, Desmond, Jack and Eleanor; sisters, Kathy (Draper) Huber and Mary (Draper) Linth; her beloved rescued golden retriever Emma; and her many loyal friends. She was preceded in death by her parents and her husband Diz (Gilbert) Davis. Throughout her life, Ginni adored her dogs. We know she would be honored for any donations made in her memory to Golden Bond Rescue or ASPCA. Ginni said that she did not want a memorial, but we all have too many stories to share about how we loved this stubborn, independent and creative woman; a get-together for family and friends will be planned for this summer.
Mavis Jane Tysdal
Sept. 16, 1945 ~ March 25, 2022 On Fri., March 25th, Mavis Jane Tysdal passed away peacefully in Post Falls, Idaho. Mavis was born Sept. 16, 1945 in Minot, North Dakota, to Conrad O. and Serine A. (Sundahl) Haarsager. She grew up on the family farm near Mohall, North Dakota, that was homesteaded in 1901. She graduated from Mohall schools and attended North Dakota State University, where she earned a BS in Medical Technology. She worked for several hospitals and clinics in Washington and Oregon during her 35-year
career. Mavis married Robert Tysdal in 1971 and they raised a daughter and son in
St. Helens. In 2004, Mavis and Bob moved to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho where they built their retirement home. Mavis loved her family and friends, and was generous with her time, sending many birthday and holiday packages for kids, and sharing her garden produce and canned specialties with many. She loved living at her home in Cougar Gulch, where she could watch birds, elk, and deer, and where she designed and planted many trees and flower beds. Mavis and Bob enjoyed camping in Oregon and traveling to Alaska to
visit Laurie’s family. Mavis was preceded in death by her husband Robert; parents, Conrad and Serine; and brothers Marvin, Kenneth, and Dale Haarsager. She is survived by her children Laurie (Karl) Hulse and David Tysdal; grandchildren, Nora, Lachlan, and Oliver Hulse; and sisters, Karen Harkness and Linda Brodigan. A celebration of life will be held at 10 a.m. on Mon., April 11, 2022 at Yates Funeral Home in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
Walter Guy Posch
Nov. 20, 1960 ~ March 5, 2022 Walter Guy Posch was born Nov. 20, 1960 in Grants Pass, Oregon to Elmer and Ethel Posch. He passed away March 5, 2022 in Rainier, Oregon. Walter graduated from Rainier High School in 1979, recently celebrating his 40th high school reunion. He was a dedicated father, community member and soldier, serving as a medic in the Army National Guard for 29 years. Walter was always willing to help his neighbor no matter the task regularly lending a hand anyway he could whether it be cutting
firewood, cleaning up flood damage or herding cows. Walter loved country
music and fancied himself a fabulous guitar player and vocalist. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, playing the six strings and knocking back a few cold ones with those he loved. His passing leaves a hole in this world and he will be greatly missed by so many. Walter was preceded in death by his parents, and older brother Bill. Walter is survived by his older sister Donna Jackson of Conrad, Montana; five children, Jessica Tatum of Hillsboro, Oregon, Joyce Palm of Clatskanie, Oregon, Zachary Posch of Rainier,
Oregon, Lorili McDowell of Bremerton, Washington and Angela Badsch of Yakima, Washington; as well as his 16 grandchildren, Tristan, Rainey, Thomas, Avangelina, Adeleigh, Mason, Kacey, Sam, Kinsley, Elizabeth, Isaiah, Weston, Everly, William, Keena and Ealand. His church services will be at 5:30 p.m. on April 8, 2022 at Alston Corner Assembly of God Church. His celebration of life will be held at 4 p.m. on April 9, 2022 at the Eagles Club. Please RSVP to Groulx Facebook page for the Eagles service.

Psilocybin rules comment period opens STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
Oregon has the one of the highest prevalence of mental illness among adults in the nation, and an estimated one in every five adults in Oregon is coping with a mental health condition. Gov. Kate Brown has declared addiction as a public health crisis in Oregon and has proposed spending over $2.8 billion on mental and behavioral health programs. The Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS) Section at Oregon Health Authority (OHA) has released a new set of proposed rules related to psilocybin products, testing and training programs under Ballot Measure 109, also known as the Oregon Psilocybin Services Act,
which directs OHA to license and regulate psilocybin products and the provision of psilocybin services. The measure was approved by voters in November 2020. See the full act attached to this story at thechronicleonline.com. The act is designed to educate the people of Oregon about the safety and efficacy of psilocybin in treating mental health conditions. Psilocybin is a hallucinogenic substance obtained from certain types of mushrooms that are indigenous to tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Mexico, and the United States, according to the National Drug Intelligence Center. The public is invited to comment on the proposed rules during the public
comment period scheduled for April 1 to April 22. The comment period closes at 5 p.m. April 22. During the public comment period, people can provide their comments in writing and by e-mailing publichealth.rules@dhsoha. state.or.us, or by participating in one of two virtual public hearings – scheduled for Monday, April 18, 5-7 p.m. PST, and Thursday, April 21, 10 a.m. to noon, PST. Spanish and American Sign Language interpretation, and CART captioning services, will be provided. OHA is only accepting comments related to the subsection rules released today, which are related to psilocybin products, testing and training programs. A second rulemaking process will occur for the remainder of the
rules later this fall. More information about the public comment period can be found here: https://www.oregon.gov/ oha/PH/PREVENTIONWELLNESS/Pages/April2022-Public-CommentPeriod.aspx. OHA is in a two-year development period extending from Jan. 1, 2021, to Dec. 31, 2022. During this time, OHA is building a new Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS) Section and working with the Oregon Psilocybin Advisory Board and Rules Advisory Committees to establish rules for the production of psilocybin and provision of psilocybin services in the state of Oregon.

Senior Center receives $2,000 STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net

Highway 30 was closed during the shooting investigation.
SHOOTING From Page A1
Scappoose is unrelated to Gresham homicide case. Stockton had served 60 months in prison in 2014 after his conviction of two counts of unlawful use of a weapon and one count of being a felon in possession
of a gun, according to The Oregonian. A CCSO deputy and an OSP trooper involved in the Scappoose shooting were placed on critical incident leave, which is standard protocol following an officerinvolved shooting. Highway 30 was shut down in both directions for a time during the shooting investigation in Scappoose.
The St. Helens Senior Center has received $2,000 from the Still Serving Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Community Support Grant through the VFW Foundation and a match of the grant funds from the VFW 1440 Post and Auxiliary. The Post and Auxiliary each applied to the VFW Foundation and were each awarded a $500 grant for the Home Delivered Meals Program. The grant and match program generated $2,000 that will assist in serving approximately 160 homebound seniors, disabled adults, veterans, and spouses of veterans that are residents of St. Helens and Scappoose. The Home Delivered Meals Program is dedicated to

getting a meal five days and sometimes seven days a week out to those that can not get out and about, according to a release from the VFW. Even during the pandemic meals were delivered.
“It is just not a meal that is getting delivered, this program also is an opportunity to check in with folks and see that they are ok,” the release states. The cost for each meal averages $8.50. This includes
food, salaries for staff who help prepare meals, shopping, and utilities. The program relies on many different avenues of funding and community support. “The cost of food and fuel continues to raise with uncertain limits,” the release reads. “What is certain is that the Home Delivered Meals Program is needed and valued to provide meals to those that are homebound.” The St. Helens Senior Center has a variety of staff and volunteer positions available that provide services to the community. For more information, contact St. Helens Senior Center Executive Director Kathy Innocenti at 503-397-3377, or at manager@shseniorcenter.org Veterans interested in the VFW services may contact David and Sherry Belden at VFW Post 1440 and Auxiliary 503-397-2147.
‘Pay attention’ ODOT stresses work zone caution STAFF REPORT chroniclenews@countrymedia.net
As Oregon enters the busy months for road projects, drivers will see more work zones. Watching for the color orange is a life-and-death priority for travelers and people doing the vital work on roads, according to the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). “We are very concerned about road crew safety due to the higher traffic speeds we’re seeing across the country,” ODOT Director Kris Strickler said. “And it’s actually drivers and travelers who are injured and killed in work-zone crashes – far more than workers.” From 2015 through 2019 – the latest complete data –
Photo courtesy of ODOT ODOT reports an average of five people, including one worker, die each year in work zone crashes. There were 540 injuries from 2015 to 2019 at road work zones in Oregon.
there was an average of 584 total crashes each year in work zones, including: • An average of five people (including one worker)
died each year. • An average of 25 people were seriously injured. • A total of 540 injuries, including serious injuries above, each year.
Road crews use a number of technologies including automated flagging devices, mobile barriers and portable message signs to make work zones safer as the state builds a modern transportation system. Those are in addition to the traditional color orange for work zones – signs, cones and the vests road crews wear. But road crews can’t do it alone, according to ODOT. Drivers must do their part to keep crews, themselves and their passengers safe. How drivers can help save lives As Oregon marks National Work Zone Awareness Week April 11-15, ODOT urges drivers to slow down and expect delays whenever

Marine patrols urge waterway safety JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net
Marine patrol members across Oregon and the Oregon Marine Board (OMB) are urging safety as people head to local waterways for recreation this spring and summer. In the coming weeks, more people will be pulling out their boats from winter storage in preparation for launch in Oregon’s waters. Rivers and the Pacific Ocean (even the surf zone) are the most inherently dangerous, according to the OMB. It’s important to always scout ahead, mind the tide, decide on the safest route and expect the unexpected, OMB states on its website, adding that most accidents and fatalities are due to falling overboard, collisions, and operator error/misjudgment, and reckless behavior. The state marine board urges boaters and watercraft

and pharmaceutical money, Smith said she’d prefer to spend “as little as possible” on her campaign. At the time of the interview, she told The Chronicle she was sitting on $5,000 in campaign funds. “Of course, I could use more because advertising is great, but I’m only fundraising for what I need,” she said. See Smith’s full bio at thechronicleonline.com. Jonathan Barclay Jonathan Barclay thinks it is time for an outsider to take political office. “I think that’s what we’ve lost focus on is the fact that we’re like, ‘Well, you’re not qualified because you’ve never run for government,’” he said. “That’s the candidate that I want. And that’s what a lot of
users to ask the themselves the following questions. • Think about what you would do if you fell overboard. Could you self-rescue? • What do you do if you’re caught in a snag? • What do you do if your boat swings around and the anchor line is near the prop? “Thinking is a necessity in boating. Act with intention. Be smart about your activity and understand how your activity impacts those around you,” OMB website reads. The OMB contracts with 32 county sheriff’s offices, including the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office, and the Oregon State Police to enforce boating laws and help patrol Oregon’s waterways. The Marine Board provides stateof-the-art, hands-on training for marine law enforcement and provides equipment, gear, and funding for patrol boats. The following are suggestions from the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office which can contribute to your safety and add to your boatpeople want, is someone that isn’t a career politician.” Barclay is a director of maintenance at a hotel and has worked in construction and maintenance for the past 21 years, according to his LinkedIn profile “My skill set and my life skills are going to prepare me for government,” he said. Through his own experience, Barclay said he understands the importance of building a regional hospital and why Columbia County taxpayers are hesitant about it. “When you have to drive an hour just to get to a doctor’s appointment that may last 15 minutes and then you have to drive another hour, it is frustrating,” he said. “I think that they (taxpayers) are frustrated when they approve bond measures and they sacrifice their tax dollars and nothing happens. They feel like their tax dollars are being wasted and nobody wants their money wasted. I mean, I can burn money if I want to do that.

ing pleasure. • Know the legal requirements for your size vessel. Safety equipment must be accessible and in working condition. • Wear your life jackets. 85% of the boating fatalities could be avoided by wearing a personal floatation device. We don’t do that for a reason, because we don’t waste our money.” Barclay said he believes he is qualified as a citizen to run in the commissioner’s race. As to why Columbia County voters should cast their ballots for him, Barclay said, “I’m going to get things done. I’m not going to drag my feet; I’m not going to say well, that’s impossible because it’s never been done before,” he said. “Let’s be trailblazers. Let’s be the first ones. Let’s show people what you can do in government.” If he makes it past the primary, Barclay said he will revisit whether he will go over his $750 campaign budget.

Brust is a small business owner of five years and spent 30 years in construction management. In a one-on-one interview, The Chronicle asked Brust why he decided to run. “I think for too long we’ve been commuting to Portland, (when) there’s such growth potential for industry,” he said. “We have everything it takes for industry to come here, and I don’t believe we’re working in a manner to draw them in.” However, Brust looks at the big picture when considering the most challenging issues faced by the state and county. “The schools in Oregon are one of the highest per child: it’s almost $15,000 per child per year,” he said. “If money were the answer to it, we would have the best schools in the nation.” Brust would like to focus on cutting red tape, arguing that the county’s current expen-
• Be prepared and carry extra equipment such as a bailer (bucket), anchor, first aid kit, visual distress signal, tool kit, flashlight with extra batteries, and a cell phone. • Don’t overload your boat. Follow the recommendations on the capacity plate of your boat. • Capsizing, sinking, and falling overboard account for 70% of boating fatalities. • If your boat should capsize, your best chance for survival and rescue is to stay with the boat. Pull as much of your body out of the water as possible to preserve body warmth. • Hypothermia can be a killer; keep your body dry and warm as possible. • It is illegal to operate any boat while under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Use the designated driver concept; a sober skipper is a must. • Stressors such as exposure to sun, wind, cold water, vibration, noise, and alcohol all affect your ability to react. • Don’t run out of fuel.
Practice the 1/3 rule: 1/3 for trip, 1/3 for return, and 1/3 for spare. • Fuel vapors are heavier than air and collect in the bilge. Never fill gasoline cans in the boat. • When anchoring, use a line that is several times longer than the depth of the water and never anchor by the stern. • File a float plan. Let someone know where you’re boating and when you’ll be back. • You’re responsible for damage or injury caused by your wake. Exercise caution around other boaters and docks. • By state law, all persons operating a motorboat greater than 10 horsepower are required to carry a Boater Education Card. The card shows that the operator has passed an approved boater education course or equivalency exam.
ditures, such as the renovations on the John Gumm building, are not best serving constituents. “They (the county) did that for the government(’s) purpose,” he said. “Not for the people.” Changing the governmental approach and moving out from under the state’s wing are two priorities that Brust says he will act on should he be elected. “We have to have the morality and the backbone to stand up, tell the state what we’re going to do and how we’re going to establish it,” he said. Brust said he hopes to raise $6,000 to $7,000 for his campaign. See Brust’s full bio at thechronicleonline.com. Oregon voting laws
