A consortium of Oregon business, legislative and education leaders are pushing to develop a regional training and sewing facility in Columbia County. Proponents say it would provide much needed solid employment for county residents and help revive the “made in U.S.A.” label.

Oregon State Sen. Betsy Johnson (D-Scappoose) is one of the advocates. She says after years of outsourcing textile work to other countries, there is now a demand for industrial sewers in the United States. “Thirty years ago, a lot of work went overseas. The quality has gone down, costs have gone up and there are companies looking to locate in this country,” she said.

Johnson envisions a regional training center located in Columbia County and operated by Portland Community College in conjunction with local businesses. PCC would help train students in the art of industrial sewing while local design and manufacturing companies could provide work.

Columbia County does have several small businesses that manufacture high quality sewn products that are sold worldwide. West Coast Shoe Company manufactures custom boots, Oregon Areo produces high tech sewn seats for aircraft and other vehicles and Michael Curry Design produces custom sewn costumes and puppets for shows like the “Lion King”.

USIA, located in St. Helens, manufactures high tech, high quality sewn products for the United States military and other governmental organizations.

“The absence of qualified employees who are capable of working with a variety of high tech materials, understanding the technical requirements of industry ­­­­ See SEWING, Page A2

ST. HELENS — After a decade of advocating for abused children, Amani Center Executive Director Lisa Galovich is departing the agency on June 10 and handing the reins over to longtime employee Cassy Miller.

Miller, who has been with Amani Center since 2008, will take over as executive director June 11.

For the past six years, Miller has been the family support services specialist and intake coordinator.

Before coming to the Amani Center, she worked for the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office for six years as a victim specialist for the Domestic Violence Response Unit.

After that, she was employed as a corrections deputy for a year and worked as a case manager for the Women’s Resource Center for a few months.

As the executive director, Miller says she would like to increase the agency’s capacity and services incrementally as funding and staffing allows. Currently, the Amani Center sees children one to two days a week. Miller says it’s been a goal of hers, as well as of Galovich, to see children five days a week.

“I’m really, really excited, and of course I’m a little nervous, but I think that’s to be expected,” Miller says of her promotion. “But I’ve got Lisa, who’s provided a really solid foundation, from how it was to where she’s brought this agency, to where it is today. If I follow that plan, I think everything will run really smooth and we’ll be successful.”

Port seeks regionally significant industrial area designation

BY AMANDA FRINK news@thechronicleonline.com

ST. HELENS — Job creation and the preservation of local industrial areas is the goal in a request that is being spearheaded by the Port of St. Helens.

Pat Trapp, the port’s executive director, said the port is moving forward with an application for a regionally significant industrial area designation, which was created by Senate Bill 766 to offer a streamlined site permitting process for industrial lands and foster job creation.

According to the Econom-

ic Recovery Review Council (ERRC), a regionally significant industrial area is an area planned and zoned for industrial use that: contains vacant sites suitable for new industrial uses or the expansion of existing industrial uses that provides significant additional employment in the region; has characteristics

providing competitive advantages that are difficult or impossible to replicate in the region; has direct access to rail, port, airport, multimodal freight or transshipment facilities; and is located close to major labor markets.

Potential sites are nominated by local and state governments and the designation ­­­­

is made by the ERRC. Implementation is a cooperative effort by Department of Land Conservation and Development and local government.

Some of the benefits of being designated a regionally significant industrial area are: See PORT, Page A3

ELECTION: Candidates gear up for November vote From PAGE A1 maries, but only Martwick and Callahan will advance to the November election. Martwick, with 37.67 percent of the vote, had a 125-vote lead over Callahan, who received 36.39 percent of the vote.

“It’s very difficult to defeat an incumbent judge,” Callahan said. “The fact that our campaign came within a hair’s-breath of first place speaks to the desire that voters have for a judge who comes from our community.

I have worked and lived in Columbia County for 20 years, and people trust me to be fair and balanced on our court.”

“We weren’t sure how close this race would be, because judicial campaigns are generally not very competitive. But we are excited that Cathleen came so close

SEWING: Training center could give boost to regional economy From PAGE A1 and producing to the highest quality standards puts U.S. companies, especially aerospace, at a distinct disadvantage,” says State Representative Brad Witt. “We need to address this serious workforce shortage.”

Johnson points out a similar model in the Midwestern United States. The Maker’s Coalition provides students with the necessary skills to work with the high tech fabrics and complex designs required of this type of industrial manufacturing.

The Minneapolis-based coalition is made up of independent small businesses, a local technical college, a non-profit organization and local service providers.

Its six-month program is a boon to local manufacturing businesses struggling to find qualified workers.

Johnson says these are not sweatshop jobs. Current starting salaries for industrial sewers range from $13 to $15 per hour. Experienced workers earn up to $22 an hour.

The nature of the work has changed. Automation is making it safer, and more varied. “We’re talking about pretty exotic applications,” Johnson says.

A delegation of business owners, educators and Columbia County officials are planning a visit to North Carolina State University to learn about its industrial arts cirriculum.

Johnson hopes to persuade PCC to build a training center in Columbia County using existing facilities and partnering with local businesses in need of trained textile workers.

There is a ready-made customer base, she says. There aren’t enough sewers in the pipeline.

to placing first last night.

She has really kept this race competitive,” said Daniel Lewkow, her campaign manager.

Martwick could not be reached for comment.

The race for county commissioner was neck-andneck with a 63-vote split between incumbent Henry Heimuller (with 49.86 percent of the vote) and challenger Wayne Mayo (49.28 percent).

According to Columbia County Elections Supervisor Pam Benham, the results should be finalized

by June 9, as the elections department still has to count write-in votes and ballots that were dropped off in other counties. In the meantime, voters who forgot to sign their ballots have until June 3 to get them signed. Voters whose

signatures have been challenged also have until June 3 to verify them.

Heimuller said Tuesday, “I would certainly have loved to win in a landslide, but this is politics, so it’s one of those things where my real reaction is that I’m thankful the people passed our jail levy. The reality of it is it was a public safety emergency, and that was averted, thank God.” “The people elected me to not play politics and to make the hard decisions when those hard decisions are necessary,” he explained.

“And if elected, I will continue to do that because that is my job.”

Mayo said Friday, “I didn’t expect this kind of circumstance, I expected to win or lose. I certainly hoped that I would win, and I would have liked to have

won in the primaries, but now we have to go on to the general. We’ll be running to the end.”

Mayo added, “I’m hoping my volunteers are eager to help me in the fall, I hope the voters are willing to engage in this, and I hope they will certainly follow the issues because there are huge issues separating him from me. Watch the money trail … just watch and see what happens.”

Incumbent Ted Grove was re-elected in an uncontested race for Judge of the Circuit Court Position 2.

Jenefer Grant was reelected to Judge of the Circuit Court Position 3, as she received 79.67 percent of the vote. Write-in votes accounted for 20.33 percent, which were likely attributed to a write-in campaign spearheaded by Agnes Petersen, a

longtime St. Helens attorney who was removed from the ballot due to the fact that she is older than the mandatory retirement age of 75.

In the primaries for U.S. Senator, Democrat incumbent Jeff Merkley took the lead in Columbia County with 86.23 percent of the vote. Merkley — challenged

by Pavel Goberman and William Bryk — was the top choice statewide, having received nearly 92 percent of the vote.

In the five-candidate race for the Republican nomination, Monica Wehby was top choice for U.S. Senator, garnering 50 percent of the vote both in the county and around the state.

In the race for U.S. Representative for the 1st District, Democrat incumbent Suzanne Bonamici received 98 percent of the

vote in Columbia County and statewide.

Jason Yates received the most votes in the county and the state in the threeway Republican race for U.S. Representative for 1st District. The race was tight in Columbia County, where Yates squeaked past Delinda Delgado Morgan by a mere two votes.

As for the Democratic primaries for the governor’s race, incumbent John Kitzhaber was the clear choice over challenger Ifeanyichukwu Diru, garnering 78 percent of the vote in the county and 88 percent of the vote statewide.

In the six-person race for the Republican nomination, Dennis Richardson led in the county with close to 58 percent. Richardson also received the most votes statewide, 65 percent.

Voters approve jail levy, turn down CRF&R bond

BY AMANDA FRINK news@thechronicleonline.com

COLUMBIA COUNTY — Presented with two measures that would increase residents’ property taxes, voters barely approved a levy to keep the Columbia County Jail open, while narrowly defeating a bond proposal for Columbia River Fire & Rescue (CRF&R) Columbia County’s unofficial final results were posted at 3:39 a.m. on May 21. Results are expected to be finalized and certified by June 9.

According to the current results, Measure 5-238, a three-year levy

to fund operation of the Columbia County Jail, passed with 51.26 percent in favor and 48.74 percent in opposition, a difference of 296 votes. With its passage, the levy will impose a county-wide 58-cent tax per $1,000 of assessed property value.

“I’m glad to see that our jail will remain open, even though this comes at the cost of raising property taxes,” said Sheriff Jeff Dickerson. “I hope those who were opposed to this measure will stay engaged in the process so that we can build a consensus for long-term funding of this important aspect of the criminal justice system in our county. We now begin the effort to bring back

our jail from the brink of elimination. It will not occur overnight, as it took a number of years worth of budget cuts to get where we are today. Neither will this fix the instability of the rest of our services. When it comes to law enforcement, criminal investigation, emergency response, court security, civil process, search and rescue and our jail, the Sheriff’s Office in Columbia County will continue to do the best we can with the resources committed to us.”

Measure 5-237, a $15 million general obligation bond for equipment and station upgrades for CRF&R failed by 48 votes, with 50.36 percent in opposition and 49.64 in favor.

“Clearly we’re disappointed,” said CRF&R Chief Jay Tappan. “We didn’t get a clear message on it. We had hoped it would pass, in fact I thought it would pass as of Tuesday night, but there was a 100-vote swing overnight.”

“But on the other hand, you know, it’s one of those things where we didn’t get an overwhelming defeat and it certainly encourages us to bring up another levy downstream,” explained Tappan, who felt that the board may decide to redevelop the proposal and bring it back for a vote in a year or so. “We definitely need the equipment and I think that’s lost in the message, that this isn’t a re-

quest for money for people and operations. It’s money for tangible things. … I think it’s a well thought out replacement schedule to sustain operations throughout the next 20 to 30 years in the fire district.

“The jail levy definitely overshadowed our levy by quite a bit,” Tappan added.

“There was a lot of interest in that levy, and it had a narrow passing as well.

But early on, we made a decision that we weren’t going to have a competition between us and the County.”

Also on the ballot was Measure 5-236, a proposal to amend the Columbia City’s charter, which passed with 78 percent support.

Gable Road to receive facelift and safety updates ST. HELENS — The Columbia County Road Department has received a $2.8 million competitive grant from the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) to improve bicycle and pedestrian amenities along Gable Road from Highway 30 to Columbia Blvd. The grant will be used to construct additional sidewalks, create bike lanes, improve roadway drainage and overlay (asphalt) the road.

The City of St. Helens,

St. Helens School District and County Board of Commissioners were all instrumental to the success of this application. Management and project funding will be administered through a joint effort between the City and County Road staffs.

Project Manager and Engineering Project Coordinator for Columbia County’s Road Department, Tristan Wood, explained how valuable the ODOT grant is for the community, “The ODOT grant award

represents a monumental endorsement for the importance of community safety projects in and around local schools in St. Helens. Kids walking daily to and from the high school are often required to step into the traffic lane due to the lack of sidewalks. This safety issue made the ODOT grant application a high priority for City and County officials.”

The grant requires a 10.27 percent project match.

The road department will provide dedicated bike path

funds and the City of St. Helens will utilize funds collected from system development charges. The City will assist Columbia County in the selection process of a design consultant to manage construction of the project. Spokesperson for Columbia County, Randy Sanders, said “The project will have minimal impact on adjacent landowners, but most importantly, will improve travel safety for students attending St. Helens High School as

well as pedestrians and drivers in the adjoining neighborhoods.”

Funding provided by the grant in the initial phase of a three-phase plan will improve access from adjoining neighborhoods to both McBride Elementary and St. Helens High School.

Consultant selection is anticipated to occur in the fall of 2014 with work beginning on the design phase in the spring of 2015.

Construction is slated to begin in 2018.

Columbia City residents asked for input on property usage COLUMBIA CITY — After being closed for nearly two years, the MiniMart Grocery and Gas property on Highway 30 in Columbia City will soon be on the market for a new use, but first, the community needs to decide what type of commercial use would be a good fit for the area.

Consisting of a 3,900 square-foot building on a .99-acre site, the property went into foreclosure and has been purchased by an investor.

With the necessary upgrades, the building could

still serve as a gas station. A convenience store could occupy 1,000 to 1,500 squarefeet of the building, leaving the rest of the space available for a business that the community needs, perhaps a certain store or restaurant.

To find gather feedback from citizens, a commercial real estate firm is asking residents to complete a single-page survey with their ideas for the property.

All the information gathered will be used to create conceptual drawings for the property.

Petroleum Realty Advi-

sors broker Christopher Jensen says he would like to get as many responses as he can by June 1, but surveys will be accepted through June 30.

“We want to get the community’s feedback about what they want to see happen with the property as quickly as possible,” Jensen explains.

He adds, “If the community feels invested in the property and its future, then we can all work to put the right businesses in there, and those businesses will be more likely to be successful

over time. In short, it will be a win-win for everyone.”

Copies of the survey are available at Pacific Athletic Club (320 A Street, Columbia City) and the city hall (1840 Second Street,

Columbia City). Provide your name, phone number and e-mail address, and you will be entered into a raffle drawing for $100. The winning name will be drawn on June 30.

Historic clock focus of restoration project ST. HELENS — A county landmark is well on its way to getting facelift it needs thanks to a local student who is using his senior project assignment as an opportunity to raise funds to restore the Columbia County Courthouse clock tower.

St. Helens High School senior Spencer Foster is organizing Rock the Clock, an ongoing fundraiser to help restore and maintain the Olde Towne landmark.

Approximately $12,000 is needed to purchase bezels, clock faces and sets of hands, paint and various mechanical parts and to pay for the labor needed to restore the 1911 clock

tower.

Endorsed by SHEDCO, Rock the Clock is sponsored by Red Apple, St. Helens Community Federal Credit Union, Bemis Printing, St. Helens Auto Center and Ace Hardware.

Donation stations with the Rock the Clock logo will be available at Red Apple IGA, Ace Hardware and the Pastime Tavern. Donations may also be made to the Rock the Clock account at St. Helens Community Federal Credit Union.

At Ace Hardware and the Pastime Tavern, supporters can purchase also a Rock the Clock logo for $1 each, sign their name, and then hang up for display.

AMANI: New director ready for new challenges

From PAGE A1

position.

Galovich has been with Amani Center since 2002, when she started as a forensic interviewer and then became the executive director in 2004.

June 10 will be Galovich’s last day at the Amani Center, as she will be changing careers and become a financial advisor at Edward Jones.

“I’m excited,” she says of the change. “But I am passionate about this work that we do and I’m honored to do it as long as I have. But the time is right for me to pursue other things in my life.”

In her farewell letter, Galovich described her experience with Amani Center as being “challenging, rewarding and allowed me to grow professionally and personally as the Amani Center also grew.”

She added,“The services the Amani Center provides to our community is emotionally difficult, detailed and requires specialized equipment, training and also requires us to be experts in the field of child abuse. This career is not for everyone. But for the few who do, we find strength and hope in the resiliency and courage shown by child abuse victims. We rejoice in the grand possibilities each child may not embrace as he/ she walks down the path of safety, health and healing to fulfill whatever their dreams

may be.”

In her 10 years, Galovich says she worked to diversify agency revenue streams and secure new recurring funding sources. While agency revenue increased over 125 percent, the center’s service delivery increased 285 percent.

Despite those accomplishments, Galovich says the agency is still operating at a deficit when considering the need in the county — kids are often booked out a month because of the need for their services.

Each assessment costs the agency $1,800, which Galovich says is the average cost around the state.

“We’re doing the best we can and we want to provide more service delivery but there’s not enough funding,” Galovich laments.

Funded through grants, donations, some medical reimbursements and crime victims compensation, the Amani Center benefits from a few fundraisers throughout the year.

On June 7, the Race Against Child Abuse will host a one-mile family walk, a 5k, 10k, and a half-marathon to raise funds for the Amani Center. On Sept. 6, the Amani Center’s 12th annual luau will feature authentic Hawaiian food, tropical drinks, Polynesian dancers, a band, and live and silent auctions.

The agency’s year around fundraisers include the Silent

Voices pledge drive (on www. amanicenter.org) and the Fred Meyer Community Rewards program (fredmeyer.com/

Galovich says a monthly donation of $25 would provide Amani Center with

$300 per year. She adds that if 10,000 people donated $25 per month, the center would have $250,000 to double their

service level for children.

PORT: Designation could streamline industrial development From PAGE A1 maintaining or encouraging the industrial employment potential of the area; zoning protection from conflicting development; protection of important site characteristics and industrial support site attributes; having priority for decisions to fund infrastructure or transportation enhancements; ensuring expedited local land use permit review for development within the designated area; and providing additional state

support for industrial job creation within the area.

ERRC may designate five to 15 regionally significant areas by June 28. All allowed uses at the time of designation will remain intact; the bill regulates future changes in designation and use beyond those allowed in the zone.

Trapp said the designation will fall in line with the port’s strategic plan, which included assisting in the provision of adequate infrastructure and proper zoning to serve

jobs development at Port Westward and the goal to “promote Port Westward as a Prime Industrial site capable of supporting energy and bulk commodities trans-shipping facilities including rail and barge-to-ship transfers between inland ports and Pacific Rim destinations.”

According to Trapp, the port will extend the application opportunity to privately held industrial properties within the port district that meet the requirements.

Chuck Daughtry, of

St. Helens seeks candidates for city council, mayor Would you like to try your hand at running the city? If so, there’s an opportunity for you.

Two city councilors and the mayor of St. Helens will face reelection this fall.

Incumbent councilors Doug Morten, position one and Susan Conn, position three will see their terms expire. Mayor Randy Peterson is also up for reelection.

The mayor is elected for a

two-year term. Each councilor serves four years. Citizens of St. Helens interested in filing for any of those positions must do so before August 15.

To file, a candidate must live within the city limits during the 12 months preceding the election and be registered to vote in Oregon.

Candidates have the choice of filing by declaration and paying a $50 filing fee or filing by petition by

gathering 43 valid signatures to place a candidate on the ballot. Candidates filing by petition must first have their petition form approved by the city election official.

Filing packets are available for download at the city’s website www.ci.sthelens.or.us/city recordersoffice/candidate-materials/ or by calling City Elections Official Kathy Payne at 503366-8217.

Employment flat for county residents The April unemployment rate ticked up for Columbia County while the number of employed people dropped slightly. The unemployment rate for April was 7.6 percent, up a tenth of a percent from the March number, but down nine-tenths of a percent from April 2013.

The Oregon Employment Department estimates 9,750 residents of the county were employed in April, up 40 from March but down 20 from April 2013.

The rate for the Portland-Vancouver area in April was 6.3 percent, down from 7.4 percent a year ago.

“Payroll employment usually increases in Clatsop, Columbia, and Tillamook counties in the late spring. Seasonal industries such as construction, retail trade, and leisure and hospitality add workers as the weather improves and tourists begin to return to the coast.

Commercial fishing and fish processing pick

up in June, when salmon and whiting usually become available. State and local government typically boost employment in their parks departments in late spring to deal with maintenance and increased use,” stated Erik Knoder of the Employment Department.

the Columbia County Economic Team, has been speaking with industrial property owners about the application and how they can qualify. Daughtry said there are a couple property owners interested in being part of the process that are either looking to develop empty sites or to expand their business, but it isn’t for everyone.

“From a property owner’s standpoint, you can’t change the zoning for 10 years,” he explained. “You lose ability to petition for rezoning; that’s one of

the drawbacks in terms of flexibility.”

Additionally, Trapp noted that there are concerns that the application will lead to significant loss of control by governments or municipalities.

But he assured that is not the case, and that it would simply expedite site reviews for industrial development projects with state significance. Instead of waiting two or three years to get an answer from the state, it would only take between 60 and 120 days. He added that

conditional uses would still apply, federal requirements would still exist, and the plans would still go through the local governing body for conditional use permitting, zone permitting, and site review requirements.

Trapp expects to submit the application by June.

According to Sierra Gardiner, state industrial lands specialist, designations have been approved for the city of Goshen, Douglas County and Spalding Industrial Park in Grants Pass.

$1,000 donation gives boost to backpack program

BY AMANDA FRINK amandaf@thechronicleonline.com

ST. HELENS — Last week, a large donation came to the St. Helens School District Backpack Program to ensure that local children don’t go hungry.

On Thursday, Steve Kober and Robert Dowell, of pipeline and terminal operator NuStar Energy, presented program volunteers with a $1,000 check and food donations for their meal program backpacks.

With nearly half of all children enrolled in St. Helens elementary schools receiving free or reduced price meals during the school week, the St. Helens School District Backpack Program was created to ensure that those children have breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks over the weekend.

Each week, volunteers pack 44 backpacks with childfriendly, easy to prepare, nonperishable food items, such as macaroni and cheese, soup, ramen noodles, applesauce, pudding cups, individual cereal boxes, raisins, granola bars, oatmeal, crackers, juice and shelf stable milk boxes.

On Friday, volunteers deliver the bags to McBride Ele-

mentary and Lewis & Clark Elementary, where they are discreetly distributed to participating kids. For kids with siblings at home, the program also provides a “sibling bag” with additional meal ingredients to feed brothers and sisters as well.

Kober, NuStar terminal manager, says the donation is just part of NuStar’s philosophy of giving. And this isn’t NuStar’s first donation to the program. In the past, the company collected and delivered over 800 jars of peanut butter to feed the hungry.

A 501c3 non-profit organization, the St. Helens School District Backpack Program is a partner agency with St. Helens United Methodist Church and the Columbia Pacific Food Bank.

A $7 donation buys one weekend of food for one child. Anyone wishing to donate to the effort may send checks to St. Helens Methodist Church, 560 Columbia Blvd, St. Helens, OR 97051.

Checks should be made out to SHSD Backpack Program.

There are also donation jars available at Sunshine Pizza and Sherlock’s Grocery.

For more information about the program, contact the St. Helens United Methodist Church at 503-3970061.

Harry and Claudia Peterson and Donna and Doyle Baer volunteer their time to fill backpacks with food for local elementary school kids who might otherwise go hungry over the weekend.

Oregon DEQ fines company Vandals smash store window for Cornelius Pass spill The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued a $72,000 penalty to Wilco Farmers for causing pollution to waters of the state. On July 10, 2013, a semitruck and tank trailer owned by the company overturned and spilled approximately 2,200 gallons of ammonia containing fertilizer into a drainage ditch alongside NW Cornelius Pass Road between Highway 30 and Skyline Blvd.

DEQ investigators said fertilizer flowed into McCarthy Creek and killed a significant number of fish and other aquatic wildlife. Wilco Farmers promptly responded and initiated clean up of the spill. Wilco’s efforts were considered by DEQ when determining the amount of the penalty.

DEQ said it issued the penalty because Oregon law prohibits discharge of hazardous materials into Oregon’s rivers, lakes and streams.

The accident closed Cornelius Pass Road for 28 hours while workers removed the tanker and environmental crews cleaned the contaminants.

Vandals smashed a display window at a St. Helens store on May 24.

Late Saturday night, someone broke the front display window of Fashion Mystique at 2254 Columbia Boulevard.

According to store owner, Trina Romero-Hash,

several youths were seen on the sidewalk in front of the store. One of them struck the window with a bicycle, shattering it.

In addition to the broken window, merchandise in the store and store fixtures were damaged by the broken glass.

Romero-Hash said images of the youths were captured on the store’s surveillance camera, and she hopes the video will help police catch the culprits.

Anyone with information about the incident is requested to contact the St. Helens Police Department.

Letters Be safe on roadways I do not have internet service, so I am writing to express concern over the safety of children and adults who walk on our roadways. Most are walking to school, on the wrong side of the road.

This morning I came very close to hitting a young girl with my car because she and her two little friends were walking on the wrong side of the road on their way to school. I slowed down to about 5 miles an hour as I approached them, and I’m so glad I did because just as I came close to them, the lead girl stepped into the road in front of my car.

I slammed on the breaks and blew my horn. I even rolled down the window and told them that they were walking on the wrong side of the road and it was dangerous. They didn’t seem to care.

This does not only apply to children. Several months ago I was making a right turn on a side street, I came across a young family with a baby in a stroller. It was

very late and very dark, they were all wearing dark clothing, no sidewalks, and had it not been for a light beam from the man’s hat, I would have hit them, they had their backs to the traffic. Luckily no other cars were coming toward me. I swerved and avoided tragedy.

I found it interesting that the man was conscientious enough to have a flashlight apparatus on his hat, and then work dark clothing, and walked on the wrong side of the road.

Please, let people know of the following rules: Q. On what side of the road should I walk?

A. If no sidewalks exist on the road, walk facing oncoming traffic (so that you can see the cars coming toward you). Also you should get as far to the side of the road as possible to provide additional space between you and oncoming cars. For a road that has sidewalks on both sides of the road, walk on the sidewalk on either side of the road because you are separated from the automobiles.

by

Dave Coverly

For a road with a sidewalk only on one side, use the sidewalk for traveling in either direction. Again, the sidewalk helps separate you from the automobiles.

When bicycling, you will want to ride on the right (going in the same direction as automobile traffic).

A few notes to all bicyclists: If you are afraid to ride with the traffic, you are probably not experienced or confident enough to be riding on public thoroughfares.

Please don’t ride on the sidewalks as this is dangerous for the people walking who can’t see you coming up behind the, That is why they are called Sidewalks.

Please obey traffic laws; your bicycle is considered a mode of transportation just like cars or trucks.

Don’t cut in-between traffic on the road, don’t go the wrong way on one-way streets, and obey traffic signs and signals.

Thank you for your time.

Efforts shift to operating Columbia County jail instead of dealing with its closure

BY JEFF DICKERSON Columbia County Sheriff

All the plans we were making to close the jail came to an immediate halt last week after the voters passed the $7 million levy to keep our jail going for the next three years. Our effort and energy leading up to the vote had been devoted to getting everything in

place for what would have been a very quick closure if the levy had been defeated.

Once the levy revenue is figured into the equation, we will begin in earnest to reverse direction. This will take some doing, initially, as the jail remains on life support due to low staffing.

There is a long process that must be initiated before we can begin hiring staff, but we have contingency plans in place to fill gaps until

we can begin the hiring process.

We also have several vendor contracts that need to be renegotiated, as we had let them lapse pending the vote, continuing on a month-to-month basis.

Now that we know we will be in business, we need to start afresh with new contracts for food, inmate telephones, and inmate medical.

We need to upgrade our software for jail inspec-

tions and jail management, and it will be better to do that now, than while we are in the hiring process.

The Board of Commissioners also will empanel the citizen review committee that the commissioners were talking about during the election campaign.

I am hoping for a good cross-section of individuals to sit on the panel, and I also hope those who voted against the levy will be well

represented.

The fact is that this county is pretty much divided on using additional tax money to support the jail. We need to develop a long-term strategy to fund the jail, and we need to build consensus around a solution that will work for longer than three years. Let us work together to build consensus for a safer, more secure community for our future.

The Way We See It Local government’s credibility problem requires trust to fix

BY DON PATTERSON dpatterson@countrymedia.net

Measure 5-238, more commonly known as the jail levy, passed by the narrowest of margins; less than 300 votes. For now, Columbia County has been spared the deleterious effects closing the jail would certainly have on its residents and businesses.

The levy provides operating funds for three

years. After that, county residents may once again face the prospect of closing the jail, unless another operating levy is approved or more permanent funding is found.

County leaders have blamed defeat of the previous two levies on a lack of knowledge by the electorate. Quite simply, they believed the good people of Columbia County would support the jail levy if they only knew what the consequences

were.

The same cannot be said this time around. The campaign to pass this levy drew an enormous amount of coverage in the media, from both inside and outside the county. There was a concerted effort by supporters to get the word out on social media and a herculean effort by County Commissioners to advocate for it at public forums and meetings.

How could you live in Columbia County or

anywhere near Columbia County and not know what was at stake?

The closeness of the vote points to a more serious problem facing county leadership. When it comes to spending tax dollars, there is a lack of trust in local government. Nearly half the voters simply did not believe the dire predictions being proffered by county officials were the result of not enough taxes.

It is not a matter of

county residents not wanting a jail, or knowing they need to pay for it. It is a matter of voters not trusting that tax dollars already given are being spent carefully.

Whether deserved or not, local government has a credibility problem with a substantial segment of the voting public.

If county leaders want to find a permanent solution to the jail-funding problem, they need first to restore that trust.

BBB warns service men and women to be on guard of shysters LAKE OSWEGO — As Oregonians take time to honor service men and women this Memorial Day, Better Business Bureau warns of scammers who have their sights set on ripping off military personnel. “It doesn’t get much lower than this,” says Tyler Andrew, CEO of BBB serving Alaska Oregon and Western Washington. “Too many times we hear stories of people coming back from deployment only to be sucked into elaborate and costly scams.”

BBB is alerting the military community and the public to malicious tactics that scammers use to steal

money and identities.

Phone Scams: Impostors pose as Veterans Administration employees and call to “verify” personal information, sometimes using scare tactics like VA benefits cancellations to collect birthdates, Social Security numbers and bank account information.

Rental Listings: Cyber thieves create bogus online rental listings and lure in potential victims by offering military discounts, requiring that deposits and rent be wired to landlords who are out of the country.

Military Loans: Sketchy lenders promise “instant approvals” and no

credit checks, but loans often carry extremely high interest rates and hidden fees.

Insurance Policies: Solicitors make false statements or inflate claims regarding the benefits of policies they offer, using high-pressured sales pitches to sell expensive—and often unnecessary—life insurance policies.

BBB advises consumers to take the following precautions: Do the recon. Learn about businesses and charities by visiting bbb.org before making payments or donations.

Arm computers. Never

click on unknown links in unsolicited emails, which may install malware and attempt to steal identities.

Take watch. Deployed service members can issue “active duty” credit alerts to minimize the risk of identity theft. Creditors are then required to verify identification before making adjustments to accounts.

Through BBB Foundation, the BBB Military Line provides free resources to all branches of the U.S. military, including financial literacy information, scam alerts and access to BBB services like complaint handling and dispute resolution.

Sarah Shipman has been selected as the Elks Teen of the Month for May. Sarah was very surprised upon learning she had been selected as the Elks teen.

She said, Sarah Shipman “Being selected as the Elks Teen of the Month is a huge honor and I am so grateful to re-

ceive this award when there are so many great students eligible to receive it.” Sarah is a wonderful young woman who is an outstanding student, someone who works really hard and the type of person who always does what is right.

As a student, Sarah is incredibly hard working. One of her teachers even commented, “ Sarah was always prepared for class, came ready to learn and did her absolute best every day.” Sarah would even say that her best quality is her perseverance and hard work when it comes

to school and grades.

Sarah has spent much of her high school years taking all of the art classes she could and participated in art shows and competitions. She holds herself to a very high standard and expects her work to show time and effort. What is also nice about Sarah is that she tries so hard and always has a smile and friendly demeanor even if she has worked extremely hard to accomplish her work.

Sarah is not only a good student, she has also been involved in Youth Group activities as well as volun-

teering for food ministries to help people in the community. All of this shows why Sarah was an easy choice for the Elks Teen award.

Sarah plans on attending a local beauty school and take cosmetology courses to eventually work as a cosmetologist in a spa setting.

Some of Sarah’s interests are drawing, painting, hiking and riding ATV’s. She would also like to thank her parents as well as her teachers throughout high school because they have helped her become the person she is today.

RAINIER — Saturday, June 14, the Rainier Jr. Sr. High School History Club will honor Columbia County veterans with informational displays and guest speakers.

The event will start at 6 p.m. in the school’s auditorium.

Master of ceremonies for the event will be Captain David Sills of the Oregon National Guard. The national anthem will be performed by Grant Cavaness.

Speakers at the event include Dr. Elaine Pacido, CW04 Jonathan Placido, Lt. Colonel Alisha Hamel, RJSHS History Club member David Placido and ASB Student Body President Tiffany Fletcher.

Elaine Placido began her military service in the US Coast Guard, serving seven years on active duty as a

Boatswain’s Mate at small boat stations on both the east and west coasts. After completing her Coast Guard career, she served in the National Guard Military Police for another three years. She holds a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice, a master’s degree in public administration and a doctoral degree in public administration. Her time in the military solidified her interest in the public sector and inspired what has become a varied career in non-profit management and local government service.

Dr. Placido currently serves as the Director of Cowlitz County Building and Planning.

Jonathan Placido is currently serving as the Commanding Officer of the Coast Guard Cutter Bluebell in

Portland. His assignment on the Bluebell is the latest assignment in a nearly three-decade military career. He has served as a surfman at several Coast Guard Lifeboat stations in the Pacific Northwest; onboard the Coast Guard cutters Planetree, Mobile Bay, Gasconade, Buckthorn, and Healy; and at Sector Humboldt Bay. Hamel, of the Historical Outreach Foundation, is an experienced historical presenter. She is a lieutenant colonel in the Oregon National Guard, and as such was tasked to develop a Lewis and Clark presentation to take to schools during the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial. The program proved to be so popular that she continued it after the bicentennial and expanded it to include

“Oregon’s Role in WWII.” The program was adopted by the National Guard. When the Oregon National Guard could no longer fund this education program, Hamel started a non-profit, the Historical Outreach Foundation, to continue to take these history programs out to schools and organizations throughout Oregon and into neighboring states. She has also finished a documentary about the 41st Infantry Division during WWII that premiered in Salem on Sept.

18, 2012, and has written many news articles.

The Historical Outreach Foundation has also started a major $6.5 million capital campaign for the Oregon Military Museum to open it as a regional attraction to showcase Oregon’s military history.

Comments: The change to the General Fund FY14 budget is due to a number of factors. (1) Accounting technical issue to reclassify indirect PERS costs (Bond and Reserve) from Program/Personnel category to Interfund Transfer cost category. (2) Contingency transfer for jail layoff costs (timing of certification of 5/21/14 ballot measure election and supplemental budget process conflict; prudent course is to add these costs though the layoff action may not be required). (3) Small contingency transfers for increased personnel costs due to unbudgeted retirements, staff transitions and a handful of underbudgeted materials and services expenditures of less than 10,000 each.

Indians win relay, earn a trophy Scappoose boys’ state title in the 4x400 relay clinches a third-place finish at the state meet, the school’s best since 1983 by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

EUGENE — The fourthplace trophy from 1983 will have some fresh company in the display case at Scappoose High School.

The Indians finished in third place at the 2014 OSAA Track and Field State Championships. That earned the school its second trophy in track and field.

“That was kind of the goal, to get fourth or higher,” said Scappoose coach David Harley.

They were very close to getting a different color trophy – North Bend won the meet with 51 points and Scappoose scored 48.

“You look at the final scores and the results, you see a state championship in a dozen different scenarios. I think the boys were disappointed initially that they came up just a few points short,” Harley said. “To win the relay at the end, that was a good way to end it.”

Seniors Mychal Hortert, Matt Shoun, Nick Rust and Justice Oman capped the meet by winning the 4x400 relay with a time of 3:23.

“They were not afraid of anybody. They beat the best.

They lost to Jesuit once, then beat them the next week,” Harley said. Jesuit won the 6A title.

Hortert, Shoun and Oman won a state title in the relay as sophomores as well.

Last year, Hortert, Rust and Oman were on the team that took second place.

“It feels really good because last year we came out and we got a second place.

I mean it’s great, but it was

kind of a letdown. It was nice to come back and take a win. It felt good,” Rust said.

The Tribe was up front for nearly the entire race, and took over for good on Shoun’s second leg.

“He really ran a fantastic second leg. He was so aggressive and took control and we never looked back after that,” Harley said.

The relay cemented the third-place finish. Had the

Indians finished out of first place in the relay, they could have dropped as far as fifth place. But there was no doubt they would win it.

“You can’t be too cocky about it, but we were very

confident because we had the best time in the state,” Rust said.

Earlier in the meet, Rust, Shoun, Oman and sophomore Jarrett White finished third in the 4x100 relay. That event started a busy day for Oman, who added a thirdplace finish in the 400 and a second-place finish in the 200.

“It’s a pretty good day for me. In the 400 I ran close to my second-fastest time I’ve ever ran. I can’t complain.

Everyone that’s beat me today has just beat me,” he said. He finished the 400 in 49.94 seconds. In the 200, he set a new personal record with a time of 22.31 seconds.

“He did a lot of running the last few weeks. For him

to come out with four medals is a great individual effort for him,” Harley said.

Rust was sixth in the 200, finishing in 22.84.

White added a seventhplace finish in the 100-meter dash, setting a new PR with a time of 11.34 seconds.

“What can you say about Jarrett White? The kid’s real shaky at the start of the year after surviving a very nasty car accident, makes it to the finals and finishes seventh,” Harley said.

Senior Kenny Klippel added 13 team points in the throws. He took second place in the shot put, throwing 51-8.5. That’s an improvement of nearly a full See indians, Page A16

Lions duo is third in state by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

PORTLAND — St. Helens seniors Madison Kaplan and Lexi Normine finished in third place at the 2014 OSAA 5A Girls Tennis State Championship doubles tournament.

The pair of Lions entered the state meet undefeated and extended their win streak to 23 matches by winning their first two matches at the state tournament.

The duo opened with a 6-4, 6-0 win over Pendleton juniors Keren Hampton and Keziah Hampton.

In the second round, St. Helens played the No. 3 seed, Morgan Wood and Marin Wood of Corvallis.

The Lions lost the first set, 7-5, then won the second 6-2. Corvallis jumped out to a 4-1 lead in the final set before Normine and Kaplan stormed back to win the final set, 7-5, and advance to the semifinals.

“They were mentally tougher than a lot of teams.

group. They stay focused and are very coachable,” said St. Helens coach Dave Geiger. “We had to get to the net and put away balls because they weren’t going to make mistakes. We did that, got some overhead shots and some volleys.”

The No. 2 seed, Summit’s Kelsey Collis and Morgan DeMeyer, handed Normine and Kaplan their first defeat, 6-0, 6-4. The pair from Summit finished second in the state.

The Lions won another three-set match in the third-

place match. This time St. Helens beat a pair of Marist Spartans 6-7 (3), 6-2, 6-2.

“For the season you couldn’t ask for anything better,” Geiger said.

Normine and Kaplan scored five team points for St. Helens, giving the Lions fifth place in the state tournament. St. Helens finished higher than any other team from the Northwest Oregon Conference. Ashland won the state title with 14 points.

This season was the first time Normine and Kaplan played together as a doubles team. Kaplan played singles her first three years.

“It’s a good match. They complement each other very well. Madison is emotional and fiery, Lexi is just calm out there,” Geiger said.

“Chris [Baruffi] has done a great job with them, taking them from freshman year not having played tennis to taking third place in the state.”

This was Geiger’s first year as head coach; Baruffi has been an assistant throughout Normine and Kaplan’s high school career.

Reinholdt paces SHHS at Hayward by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

EUGENE — In her final high school meet, Kylie Reinholdt came up with lifetime-best jumps in the long jump and triple jump.

The St. Helens High School senior took second place in the triple jump and ended fourth in the long jump at the 2014 OSAA 5A Track and Field State Championships.

Reinholdt and Summit junior Miranda Brown battled it out in the triple jump, each one outdoing

the other on their first five attempts. Reinholdt jumped 36-3, Brown answered by going 36-4. When Reinholdt jumped 36-5, Brown went 36-7. On her second-to-last attempt, Reinholdt sprung a 37-foot jump. Brown then jumped 37-0.25. Neither athlete improved on their final attempt, giving Brown a state title by a quarter of an inch.

“What an amazing competition,” said St. Helens coach Gerry Tinkle. “They were going back and forth and competing hard. She gave it everything she had.”

The day before, Reinholdt

long jumped 17-1.25, good for fourth place. Coincidentally, Brown was third with a jump of 17-1.5.

Reinholdt also competed in the high jump, finishing in a three-way tie for tenth place with a clearance of 4-10.

Reinholdt’s 37-foot triple jump creates plenty of separation at the top of the SHHS all-time list, as no other St. Helens girl has ever hit 36 feet.

“I’d say that it went really well and I’m happy ending my high school career on that,” Reinholdt said.

Davidson wins state title, again by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

EUGENE — Charlie Davidson burst onto the scene with a state title in the 1,500 meters as a freshman in 2011. As a senior in 2014, she capped her career with another state championship in that same event.

The Scappoose High School senior won the event with a season-best time of 4:45.48 at the 2014 OSAA 4A Track and Field State Championships on May 24.

“It makes it so much more amazing. I was disappointed getting second the last two years – I mean that’s still

really good – but since I got it as a freshman, it’s like, shoot, I’m not maintaining it.

I really wanted to win it my senior year and I’m really happy I did,” Davidson said.

She won it in convincing fashion, shooting out to the lead right away and staying ahead of the pack the entire race.

“I knew Shaylen (Crook, of Marshfield) and some of the other girls would have a nice hard pace. So I was thinking I’d just stay with them. But at the start I was just feeling so great I just decided to go. I had to kind of keep that pace, otherwise See shs, Page A16

St. Helens ends up ninth in 5A the courses they play are so soggy. As a result, the Lions tend to hit high shots so the ball can carry in the air because it won’t roll when it hits the ground.

At the state meet, teams are forced to play the ball as it lies. That encourages lower drives so the ball rolls.

“It was a learning experience for the guys. And they never gave up, to the last hole. The last hole, Jacob had his farthest drive of the tournament,” Lawrence said.

“Jacob had the longest drive by probably 20 yards in the whole tournament. There were guys up on the putting green saying ‘That can’t be his drive.’”

The state experience has sparked an interest in competing in some OGA Junior Golf tournaments this summer for a few St. Helens players. With two juniors and a sophomore competing at state this year, that could bode well for the future.

by kyle boggs sports@thechronicleonline.com

BANKS — The St. Helens High School boys golf team finished ninth in the state at the 2014 OSAA 5A Boys Golf State Championships.

The Lions were making their first trip to the 5A state tournament. They finished the two-day, 36-hole tournament at Quail Valley Golf Course with a four-person total of 688 strokes. State champion Bend ended up with 617.

“It didn’t pan out as well as they hoped, but they’re ninth in the state and that’s pretty good. Are they satisfied? No,” said St. Helens coach Dave Lawrence.

As they have done all season, the Lions didn’t have any outliers score near the top of the pack or at the bottom. Instead, the five SHHS players all shot scores within 11 strokes of each other.

Senior Eric Aldridge had the top showing, tying for 40th place individually with a 25-over-par 169. Aldridge was consistent over both days of the tournament, shooting an 84 the first day and 85 the second.

Junior Michael Hewlett tied for 43rd with a score of 171. Two strokes behind him was senior Cody Teyema, who followed a first-day 85 with 88 on the second day.

Following the two-stroke trend, junior Jacob Roxey shot 175 to tie for 51st individually.

KYLE BOGGS / The Chronicle St. Helens senior Eric Aldridge led the St. Helens Lions with a 36-hole score of 169 during the 2014 5A Boys Golf State Championships.

Sophomore Jordan Roark ended the two days with a score of 180.

“They all made a birdie or two [both days],” Lawrence said. “But when they had a bad hole it turned into a triple bogey. We had avoided

that the last few weeks.”

Something else that differed from the past few weeks was the style of play at the state tournament.

In the Northwest Oregon Conference, teams typically play winter rules because

LIONS: Tinkle retires after 35 years From PAGE A13 Senior Thomas Hughes finished seventh in the 110-meter high hurdles and eighth in the 300-meter intermediate hurdles. He finished the high hurdles in 15.43 seconds and the intermediates in 42.65.

“He had an incredible career at St. Helens. He had some dominating performances this season and last season,” Tinkle said.

Senior Jacob Zartman took seventh place in the shot put with a throw of 45-5. Silverton’s Matthew Willis won the event with a throw of 50-3.75.

This was the last state meet for Tinkle as the St. Helens head track and field coach. He said he will coach cross country again in the fall and return to the track program as an assistant coach, but he is retiring as head track coach.

“I felt the program needed some new, younger direction. I’ve been a head track coach for 35 years,” he said.

Thirty-two of those years were at St. Helens, where the boys team won a state title in 2007. He coached the Lions to 18 league championships and three state trophies.

TAMMY LUKINBEAL / For The Chronicle Scappoose junior Tyler Lukinbeal takes a shot at Eagle Crest during the 2014 OSAA 4A Boys Golf State Championships.

Lukinbeal finished 31st with a 36-hole score of 168.

Young Indians gain experience at state REDMOND —Tyler Lukinbeal golfed at the 2013 OSAA 4A Boys Golf State Championships, when the Scappoose Indians finished third in the state.

The junior is the only holdover from last year’s team. The experience he gained as a sophomore paid off for Lukinbeal during the 2014 OSAA 4A Boys Golf State Championships.

He led the way for the Tribe with a 36-hole score of 168 (24 over par). That was good for 31st out of 85 individuals at the meet and it helped the Indians finish the season as the No. 13 team in Oregon.

As a team, Scappoose ended the two-day state tournament at Eagle Crest with a four-man, 36-hole score of 803. State champion Seaside scored 649.

“Everyone, except for Tyler, had never experienced anything like a state championship before and were very nervous. It contributed to their scores,” said SHS coach Steve Hagen. “The fact that they made it to state is exceptional considering how little competitive golf they have played.”

Lukinbeal played the first day of the tournament at 10-over, then shot 86 the second day. Baker’s Brandon Ellwanger won the individual title after shooting one-under the first day and one-over the second day to end at even par.

Freshman Nathan Mapes was the No. 2 scorer for Scappoose, shooting a twoday total of 196. Sophomore Braxton Sue came in with 210 and sophomore Andrew Kercher scored 229.

Hagen is hopeful the youthful group will learn from this year’s state tournament and use it as a tool to improve in the future.

“Hopefully, they will play in some Oregon Junior Golf tournaments this summer and they will definitely benefit from the additional experience. We’re looking forward to 2015,” he said. “The experience they gained from the state tournament will go a long ways to improving their play for next season.”

Tribe hosts Tigers in Healthy Smiles of Scappoose first round of playoffs The fifth-ranked Scappoose Indians (20-6, 13-2) will host the La Grande Tigers (16-11, 9-3 Greater Oregon League) in the first round of the 2014 OSAA 4A Baseball State Championships. The teams will play in Scappoose at 4 p.m. on May 28.

This will be the second meeting this season for these two teams. La Grande took a 4-3 win over Scappoose during the Treasure Valley Classic over Spring Break.

La Grande reached the state playoffs after finishing second in the Greater Oregon League, then beating Tillamook (12-9, 9-6) 6-1 in the play-in round on May 22.

Because Scappoose won the Cowapa League, the Indians had a bye in the playin round. To fill the void in the schedule, they picked up a game against the Valley Catholic Valiants (25-1, 15-0 3A Lewis & Clark League) on May 22. Valley Catholic is the top-ranked 3A team in the state and will be joining the Cowapa League next season.

Valley Catholic topped Scappoose 10-8.

The Indians jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but didn’t score again until the fourth frame. By then, they trailed 6-4. The Tribe tied the game in the top of the fourth, but the Valiants scored three in the bottom of the fourth to make it a 9-6 game. Again, the Tribe responded with two more runs in the fifth inning before Valley Catholic added an insurance run in

I don’t know what would have happened,” Davidson said.

Crook came close to catching her with about a lap remaining, but Davidson stayed in the lead and finished a full second ahead of second place.

“That was her goal all season long. That (1,500) was the one she really wanted. You get a taste of it as a freshman, think that’s the way it’s gonna be all four years. She was very determined that that’s the one she wanted. That’s why she ran so hard from the start,” said Scappoose coach David Harley.

Two hours after the 1,500 began, Davidson was on the starting line again, this time for the 800. She finished third with a time of 2:19.

Fellow senior Abby Kessi was seventh, finishing in 2:24 – a lifetime best. She had run 2:25 several times previously before shaving a second off in her final race.

“That’s the difference between getting to the podium and not,” Harley said.

Harley said Davidson appeared more excited for Kessi than for herself.

“It meant a lot to her to get to share the podium with a teammate, with Abby getting seventh,” Harley said.

This state meet capped a tremendous four years for Davidson. She finished first or second in the state all four years in the 1,500.

After taking fourth place in the 800 as a freshman, she finished third each of the last three years.

“Phenomenal career. It blows you away what she accomplished,” Harley said.

Those two accounted for the Tribe’s 18 team points.

Sophomore Eleanor Jones finished tenth in the 300-meter hurdles and 14th in the 100 hurdles. She clocked times of 48.37 seconds in the 300 and 16.95 in the 100.
