A farewell to furloughs for Columbia County BY CODY MANN cmann@countrymedia.net

After 8 years of furloughs, the county will return to a full schedule of serving the public. In past years, some county employees saw as much as 10 percent of their schedules reduced due to furloughs. This past year there were eight days of furlough for the county. The furloughs affected the county from top to bottom, with county commissioners and other elected officials taking the first cuts. Columbia County Commissioner Tony Hyde said the budget passed for the coming fiscal year reflected a goodbye to lost workdays. For the past several years, the courthouse that is home to many county services was open four days of the week. The new budget allows for the full five days of operations. “I think that it’s directly due to economic development that’s been going on in the county,” Hyde said. “That’s now starting to manifest itself in a financial way.” The upswing in the budget also allowed for adding personnel to the rolls. Columbia County Finance and Taxation Director Jennifer Cuellar-Smith said the new budget included the capacity for 171 full-time employees, whereas the previous budget listed a capacity of 157 full-time employees. “It’s a great thing to get capacity back, “Cuellar-Smith said. “Hopefully by adding a little bit more capacity and having every-

body back, we’ll be able to feel less like we’re treading water on the basic core services, and be able to move on some things that we know are more strategic that we’ve had to put on hold for many years.” Cuellar-Smith said the number of furlough days increased in steps at first, but had steadily decreased in recent years and would not be seen in the coming year’s budget. She said declining timber funds from the federal government, directed to supporting the county’s general fund, played a big part in the need for furloughed workdays. The return to full-time operations is tied to Oregon’s Public Employee Retirement System (PERS) and Hyde’s close eye on the looming rate increase that was set for January of 2017. Hyde said there is a pall hanging over state and local governments because of the $1.5 billion deficit Oregon is facing, which Hyde largely attributes to court action that reversed PERS legislation designed to cut costs. “It’s a concern for all local and state governments because we’re all going to see a rate increase in January,” he said, adding that the increase might be in the double digits, 20 percent or more. However, Hyde said Columbia County is prepared for the big hit coming from PERS. “Even in the wake of all our layoffs and furloughs over the years, we put together a PERS savings account that was a rate-increase adjustment in case the PERS system did not prevail in court,” he said.

In other words, the county has been saving for the rainy day that is the PERS rate increase. According to Hyde, the coming PERS rate increase will not impact the county. He said that was a difficult goal to achieve in part because the optics involved in saving funds while simultaneously making layoffs and furloughs. Hyde said, “When that storm hits in January, you’re going to hear an outcry from a lot of local governments – you will not hear that from us – we are prepared for those numbers.” The PERS issue is one that Hyde tracked for the past 15 years, concluding that the system was fatally flawed in many ways. “I made it my chore to do something about it, and the next thing I know I was co-chair of the state committee for PERS reform,” he said. Hyde said at that time, a number of reforms were made such as updating the mortality rate to reflect longer average life spans. The statistical difference in life spans led to uncalculated costs, or unfunded actuarial liability. Hyde said PERS was tied to the stock market in the past, another factor that needed reform. He said the way it worked, if the stock market went up, the government took a hit, but if the stock market went down, the government also took a hit. “You could take your PERS account and invest in the stock market, and if the stock market went up your investment had to be paid ­­­­

Nursery volunteers restoring environment St. Helens man awarded hero’s medal A St. Helens man received national recognition for his heroic acts to disarm an assailant, saving the lives of his neighbors and himself. Jacob Scott Jones, 35, was awarded the Carnegie Medal for his actions in March 2015 that saved the life of Albert L. Schneider and others by disarming the assailant and holding him until police arrived. The Carnegie Hero Fund Commission in Pittsburg, Penn. announced the award June 30. Jones is one of 23 recipients of the medal, named Jacob Scott Jones after industrialist and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. The medal recognizes civilian heroism in the US and Canada. Jones will also receive a finan-

cial grant from the fund. According to police reports from the time, Schneider interceded in a confrontation between a neighbor, Robert Goin, and a teenager in the street. Goin produced a gun and shot Schneider in the stomach while both men wrestled to the ground. Alerted to the altercation, Jones took the gun, removed the ammunition magazine, and put the gun in his garage. In the meantime, police said Goin Courtesy photo went to the trunk of his car to retrieve another gun. Jones ran to the car, wrested the gun from Goin and pinned him down until police arrived. Schneider required hospitalization for his wound.

Some people would tell you working in the garden or greenhouse is the secret to happiness. When you add community volunteering to that, it becomes possible to pull great joy from the soil. The fresh air and exercise can do a body good, too. Scappoose Bay Watershed Council operates a native plant nursery on the campus at Scappoose High School. The plants grown at the nursery are used in local environmental restoration projects such as the 6,400 plants for a Milton Creek project that were placed on Pittsburg Road. Amber Kester is the watershed technician for the council and the Native Plant Center operations manager. She started as a volunteer in 2012 and became the manager for the nursery in 2014. Kester said she began volunteering out of an interest in cleaning up the environment and wanting to pass that spirit of restoration along to her children. From 9 a.m. until noon each Thursday, the nursery offers a volunteer work program. The public is welcome to help out during that time, and Kester said other times could be scheduled dependent on

need. She said there are typically five to 10 volunteers at the site on a Thursday. Volunteers have the opportunity to learn skills such as plant identification. Kester said her understanding of medicinal and edible plants has grown since getting involved at the nursery. If a person wants to know what they could survive on the wilderness, they might learn it volunteering at the nursery. Twice a year the nursery holds public sales at the site, with the sales taking place in April and October. Those sales are the primary source of funding for the nursery, but Kester said the organization is looking into possible grants and other funding sources for the nonprofit nursery. Using a native plant for your home project is preferable to a domestic plant in some cases because it may increase natural functionality in the environment. The seeds for the plant species are locally sourced, with material for larger projects coming from Northwest Oregon Restoration Partnership (NORP). The Native Plant Center is a satellite nursery of NORP, but strives to operate as independently as possible. The

organization promotes the use of local nursery stock derived from operations that are near restoration projects or watershed councils, a practical approach that reduces the carbon footprint of restoration projects. “We would like to expand,” Kes-

Sheriff’s Office arrests 79-year-old Clatskanie Operation Dry Water targets Sauvie Island man on Sodomy/Sex Abuse Charges Oregon State Police The driver was subsequently observed a vehicle near A 79-year-old Clatskanie man is behind bars following an investigation that stemmed from a referral to a school resource officer at a high school outside of Columbia County. Karl Cline is charged with two counts of First Degree Sodomy, seven counts of First Degree Sexual Abuse and one count of First Degree Attempted Sexual Abuse after indictments on those charges by the Columbia County grand jury. Two victims testified before the grand jury on June 23. Cline was later arraigned on the above charges as well as two counts of First Degree Unlawful Sexual Penetration. The investigation began with the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) investigator receiving a referral from a school police resource officer in a Clackamas County school district, advising that a female student disclosed the abuse from 2010. The investigation was submitted to the grand jury, which produced the indictment on the above-mentioned charges. Cline was contacted at his residence on June 29, and was

taken into custody without incident. Additional investigation at the residence could result in

additional criminal charges. Details of the abuse were initially delayed in coming, with the first report to Oregon Department of Human Services in 2010. The alleged victim, 12 years old at the time, was living in Clatskanie. Cline reportedly exposed himself to the victim, and a forensic interview was conducted in 2010. However, there was not enough infor-

mation developed to produce criminal charges. This past October, a school police resource officer learned of a more detailed disclosure from one of the alleged victim, now six years older. CCSO investigators opened a new case and investigators conducted a child forensic interview in February. In March, Cline met with investigators, but was not arrested at that time. Last week, both victims appeared before the Columbia County Grand Jury, which indicted Cline on the above-mentioned counts. Yesterday, the detective investigating the case went to Cline’s residence in the 19000 block of Shepard Rd. in the Clatskanie area and arrested Cline. He was lodged at the county jail with a bail amount of $1,080,000 (Cline can bond out on 10 percent of that, or $108,000). His bail was later increased to $5,400,000. Anyone having any information about this case or this suspect is invited to call the citizen report line at (503) 366-4698.

(OSP) urges visitors of Sauvie Island Wildlife Area (SIWA) to consume intoxicants responsibly after numerous DUII/BUII complaints and arrests during the past several weekends. OSP also reported parking issues and car break-ins. The public is urged not to park on the roadways in SIWA, a reoccurring problem at the site. According to OSP, there have been cars that completely blocked the roadways and required towing because emergency vehicles could not access SIWA. Additionally, OSP recommends leaving valuables at home, or if they are in your vehicle, hide them from plain sight. OSP and its partners are continuing joint enforcement efforts on SIWA and surrounding areas, including the waterways. Columbia County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) assisted OSP in the operation. The saturation was run in conjunction with Operation Dry Water, a National weekend of boating under the influence awareness, education and enforcement effort. Fish and Wildlife Troopers and CCSO patrolled the waters around Sauvie Island. As a result of the operation, one individual was cited for Boating Under the Influence of Intoxicants (BUII) and nine others were cited and/ or arrested for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants (DUII). Multiple warnings and citations were issued for boating related violations and multiple parking and traffic citations were also issued. The following are examples of the enforcement efforts during saturation patrols from June 24 to June 26: * One boater was found by CCSO to be BUII and was arrested and transported to the DUII Mobile Processing Center, where subject provided a breath sample at .04% BAC. A urine sample was also collected for analysis.

Paving slated for US 30 A repaving project is likely to slow commuter traffic on Highway 30 beginning in early July. Oregon Department of Transportation is planning to repave a 7.65-mile section of the popular commuter route from St. Johns Bridge to McNamee Road, just south of Cornelius Pass. ODOT expects to finish the project by Oct. 31. According to ODOT, most of the work will take place during daytime hours

through the use of lane reductions. The contractor will grind and pave one side of the road at a time section by section. The contractor will stage lane reductions in one direction at a time to avoid impacts to commuters traveling during peak hours. The shoulders of Highway 30 between the St. John’s bridge and the north end of Linnton will also be repaved to provide a smoother surface for bi-

cycle and walking traffic. In Linnton, the stamped crosswalks will be maintained and refreshed. In 2014, ODOT estimated 19,500 vehicles a day use the highway between Sauvie Island bridge and Linnton. ODOT is planning an public open house at the Linnton Community Center from 8 – 9 p.m., July 6 to talk about the planned project. The address is 10614 NW St. Helens Road.

Stan Grubbs said. Moyer said a sheriff’s deputy arrived at the park at 3:05 p.m. to investigate the call. “The deputy called Mr. Pohl’s probation officer who issued a detainer, like a warrant, and Mr. Pohl was taken into custody without incident and transported to the county jail.” Pohl was released earlier this week and may face a structured sanction. Details of that sanction were not available at press time. Pohl, a former, member of the Clatskanie Planning Commission, was originally booked for indecency on Sept. 15, 2015, at the Columbia County Jail.

Gilchrist was the last pastor to live in the quarters at the back of the building on South 15th Street. Gilchrist is not surprised that St. Helens Baptist is celebrating such longevity while other churches close their doors at an alarming rate. “Many members have stayed the course, remaining faithful in Biblical doctrines, attendance and financial support,” Gilchrist says. Gilchrist remembers the zeal, love, and cooperation most members had during [his] tenure as their pastor.

Probably started by a discarded cigarette butt. No spread to structures or vehicles and no injuries. 5/30/15 Structure fire: 29451 Old Rainier Road, Rainier. This was a significant structure fire involving a metal barn, approximately 40x50 in size. The barn was used for raising chickens (chicks), storage including a 1978 Chevy Camaro, and legal marijuana growing.

Loss is assigned at about $20,000 but may be more depending on insurance estimates.

the EU are over regulated by those same unelected bureaucrats in Brussels, while in the US; states are over regulated by bureaucrats in Washington, DC who are elected by the states themselves. Germany lost both first and second World Wars yet is at the center of EU control; without firing a shot. Even though the US won the Cold War with the Soviet Socialists Republic, after President Obama was elected Ms. Debbie Wasserman Schultz was televised saying that the extreme left Progressive Liberal Socialists had taken control of the Democratic Party; without firing a shot. One thing that Brexit has shown the world is that the pollsters and elected officials at all levels of government are out of touch with the regular working folk they have sworn to serve. And even maybe; working folk are not buying the global progressive liberal socialist form of government. Joseph Turner Columbia City

Jobless report shows gains, positive future BY JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

A key indicator of Columbia County’s economy is showing positive strengths in several job sectors as the shift of the economic base continues. The May unemployment report, issued by the Oregon Employment Department, shows Columbia County’s jobless rate at 5.7 percent, unchanged from April, but lower than the May 2015 rate at 7.3 percent. The county saw 100 jobs added in May. The private sector, including leisure and hospitality, grew by 80 jobs. Government employment rose by 20 and other industries had smaller changes.

Total nonfarm employment pipeline in Columbia County in May was 290 more than that could strengthen the manone year before, a gain of 2.8 ufacturing, natural resources, percent.

Oregon State University also will have a presence here.” Chuck Daughtry, the Executive Director of Columbia County Economic Team, told The Chief in an early June article. Daughtry said other stakeholders included Business Oregon, CCET, Columbia Pacific CCO, U.S. Economic Development Administration, Greater Portland Inc., University of Sheffield, England and Boeing. “Manufacturing seems to have some great cluster development advantages on the horizon in Columbia County,” Sykes said. “Much also depends upon the Port of St, Helens’ development at Port Westward and at around Scappoose Industrial Airpark.”

Sykes said most of Columbia County’s job openings are for year-round positions, but there are some construction positions that are seasonal and some temporary jobs. “Currently, the state employment department’s Columbia County open job listings are dominated by health care, professional and business services, financial activities, retail trade, transportation (truck driving and parcel delivery) and construction. “Wages really depend on the job and the applicants’ abilities and qualifications,” Sykes said.

apple pies, gardening, camping and thinking up entrepreneurial ideas were all part of Walt. He loved to design and build things, especially in wood. Some of his best fishing trips were enhanced by a tall Stanley thermos filled with hot coffee that was liberally sugared. Hot dogs on sticks over a campfire and telling fishing tales were his idea of a good time. On Nov. 19, 2003, Walt married a second time, to Pamela Bruner, of Bedford, Texas. She shared his love

of fishing and camping, and within months, the couple settled in Columbia County. For several years, they served as foster parents at their place on Scappoose Bay. Walt was a friend and mentor to other children, too. He took deep pride in his children’s many accomplishments and was thrilled to become a grandfather. He had hoped to bring the little ones out to Oregon and teach them how to fish; most importantly, he wanted to teach them about Jesus. Walt was preceded in death by his parents. Survivors include his wife, Pamela; son, Michael (Rachael) Vendsel of Dallas, Texas; daughters, Sarah (Radu) Du-

das, of Loma Linda, Calif. and Karen (Dave) Norvell of North Richland Hills, Texas; two stepdaughters, Courtney (Chris) Stevens of Dallas, Texas, and Sara Strickland of Carlsbad, NM; sisters, Jini Johnson of Bakersfield, Calif., Carol (Duane) Anderson of Bakersfield, Calif.; brothers, Jeff (Stephanie) Vendsel, of Castro Valley, Calif., and Earl (Monica) Vendsel of Bakersfield, Calif.; and two grandsons and three granddaughters. Funeral arrangements were handled by Columbia Funeral Home; interment was on July 1, in Columbia Memorial Gardens, Scappoose.

able for the class, she said, but this past year special education students volunteered at the nursery. Kester said the nursery would like to do more with the school if funding could be secured. Joan Rainey is one of the volunteers at the Native Plant Center. She began a few years ago by donating seeds, moved up to volunteering at the plant sales, and then joined the Thursday group after a fellow conservation enthusiast told her about it. “It’s fun to be around a project that involves people who are interested in the kinds of things I am, and I like to learn from the others about all aspects of propagating and growing native plants – techniques, identification, the science of plant communities,” Rainey said. “We plant seeds, set up

cuttings, transplant, weed, prune a bit, and help out at the sales,” Rainey said. “Everyone has their own set of interests, skills and experience, so some have repaired and built things, one has been key in organizing the space for plants, several others have been great resources for materials and knowledge.” “I see the sales as educational opportunities for the public to learn more about the value for native plants in the landscape, Rainey said. “They get these beautiful plants at really good value and when they plant them

we hope they’ll thrive and provide habitat.” If you are interested in volunteering at the nursery, contact Amber Kester at amber@scappoosebay-wc. org or call (503) 397-7904 or (503) 369-8589.

with the things he loved most: his family, farm, woodworking and sawmilling. He leaves his wife of 50 years, Dorothy “Dottie” Alloway; his daughter, Donna and Rich Stevens; son, Will and Concetta Alloway; son, Robb and Lindsie Alloway and grandchildren Kyrie, Kailynn, Keenan, Ethan, Baillie, Lily, Emma and Kaitie. The family has chosen a private service but ask that in lieu of flowers, any contributions be made to Scappoose Senior Center in his name.

Walter B. Vendsel April 16, 1949 ~ June 27, 2016 Walter B. Vendsel, of St. Helens, died at home, on June 27, after a long illness, surrounded by his wife, pastor and friends. Walt was born April 16, 1949, in Portland, Ore., to Gerald Karl and Varian “Marie” (Hendryx) Vendsel. As a boy, he spent several years in Cannon Beach with his grandparents, a time and place he always fondly remembered. Walt loved learning and never stopped. He received an AA degree from California’s Bakersfield College in June 1969, and then a BA in history from Chico State University in 1971. He married Angela Bardes in 1971, and they later returned

off,” Hyde said. “But if the market went down, you were still guaranteed 8 percent.” “Either way, the employees were great, but the counties and cities and the state were in trouble,” Hyde said. “I picked that mantle up just trying to tell my colleagues at the counties to please understand if the stock market goes up we’re screwed and if the stock market goes down we’re screwed.” Hyde said not only did the legislation change, that a reserve account also was put in place for the tough years. After a year that saw 22 percent earnings, Hyde said the PERS board awarded those earnings to employees without stashing

to Portland. Walt felt God calling him into ministry, and he earned his Master’s in Divinity from Western Seminary in June 1976. The couple started a family in Portland, and Walt served as pastor of Glencoe Baptist Church in southeast Portland. Pastoring there and later, at First Conservative Baptist Church in Anchorage, Alaska, were some of his favorite years. Even when he was not in the pulpit, Walt remained a man with a pastor’s heart. He was an outstanding Bible teacher, who memorized long passages from God’s Word, and loved to open his home to study groups. He is remembered for that deep

any anyway in the reserve account, leading to a lawsuit in which the courts decided the recipients would have to repay the windfall. Hyde said there was a move to freeze the cost of living expenses for those employees until the funds were repaid, but the courts denied that move. The county prepared for the coming increase by socking away the savings generated by the PERS legislation prior to its reversal by the courts. “We took what the savings was supposed to be and put it in an account,” Hyde said. “We have had all kinds of setbacks, and I already knew just because you get something passed legislatively doesn’t mean it isn’t going to be challenged and ultimately overturned,” Hyde said. “That was the impetus for me of why we needed to be cautious on these supposed PERS savings.”

love for Jesus, his desire to research and dig into Scripture, and for his powerful prayers. Walt grew up fishing and hunting, but a fishing pastime evolved into a passion during four years in Anchorage, Alaska. After a move to Texas in 1989, Walt worked at GTE in sales and customer service. However, he carved out two weeks each summer for an Alaskan fishing trip with his young son, funded by mowing lawns in their spare time. Fishing, baking

ter said. “I’d like to get some workshops and local education in here.” The potential for grant funding would be part of any growth plans, and Kester said volunteers who are versed in the subject could contribute to that effort (no work gloves needed). She noted that internet-savvy volunteers would be valuable to the digital side of the operation as well. The proximity to the high school makes for a natural connection, and Kester said initially there was a horticulture class offered at the nursery for students. There is no longer funding avail

The award amount posted on the EFSP website is $27,914. The selection was made by a National Board that is chaired by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and consists of representatives from The Salvation Army; American Red Cross; United Jewish Communities; Catholic Charities, USA; National Council of the Churches of Christ in the U.S. A.; and United Way of America which will provide the administrative staff and function as fiscal agent.

A local board made up of representatives from the VFW, American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Community Churches, Homeless and other community representatives will determine how the funds awarded to Columbia County are to be distributed. Under the terms of the grant from the National Board, local agencies chosen to receive funds must: • Be private voluntary non-profits or units of government • Be eligible to receive Federal funds • Have an accounting system. • Practice nondiscrimination and provide a copy of their policy on their letterhead. • Have no previous noncompliance or returned funds via the emergency food and shelter program. • Have demonstrated the capability to deliver emergency food and/or shelter programs within Columbia
