Commissioners declare state of emergency WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
T
illamook’s board of county commissioners declared a state of emergency on January 17, in response to a winter storm that battered the area on January 13 and 14. Commissioners also approved a $3.47 million bridge project on Sand Lake Road, a $40,000 culvert repair on Blaine Road, wage increases for non-unionized and elected county staff, awarded $25,000 to the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce and continued a decision on the dissolution of the Beaver Water District. The declaration of emergency was issued in response to the winter storm that covered much of Tillamook County in a sheet of ice and sent temperatures plunging over the weekend. The declaration will allow the county to more easily access state and federal funding to offset the cost of response and recovery to the storm. Tillamook County Emergency Director Randy Thorpe said that he had already been in contact with the state about the declaration and that he expected it would take several weeks to assess the damage. He also noted that Community Action Resource Enterprises would be eligible to receive funding to help offset the cost of staffing its warming center.

Road is primarily coming from the federal government, which is contributing 90% against a 10% match from the county. Tillamook County Public Works Director Chris Laity said that the project would now begin design and permitting and that he expected construction to take place in 2028. The repair to the culvert at milepost 10.3 on Blaine Road will be completed using polyurethane foam that will help to secure the
culvert by filling voids around it and preventing subsidence of the road running over it. Non-unionized and elected officials will both receive a 2% cost of living adjustment effective as of January 1, with another 3% bump to come on July 1. The increases match those approved last week for county workers represented by AFSCME. The grant of $25,000 in transient lodging tax funds to the Pa-
cific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce will allow the group to hire a full-time employee to staff the south county visitors’ center at Kiawanda Community Center in Pacific City. The chamber used to run a welcome center in Cloverdale with a part-time employee but discontinued the offering when finding staff became untenable. Thanks to its recent success, the Kiawanda Community Center will be matching the grant from
the county to fully fund the new position. When hired, the staffer will work to organize events and activities at the visitors’ center and give information to visitors. After concluding the rest of their agenda, the commissioners held a public hearing on the dissolution of the Beaver water district. The dissolution saga began in August when the secretary of state’s office informed the county that the water district was three years behind on its audits. This tardiness automatically triggered the dissolution process, with an initial public hearing held on November 1. After receiving notice of the dissolution, the district’s board hired a new staff member, Heidi Reed, to address the district’s issues. At the November hearing, Reed said that she had been in contact with the secretary of state’s office and was working to find auditors to complete the necessary work. Commissioners agreed to continue the hearing until January to allow work to progress. At the hearing on January 17, Reed said that the district’s audits had now been completed through fiscal year 2021 and submitted to the secretary of state’s office. Reed said she is still working to find an auditor to complete the final two audits but that she has been in contact with several and has kept the secretary of state’s office apprised of the progress. Commissioners voted to continue the hearing again, setting the next hearing date for April 3, to allow Reed more time to complete the audits.
OCSR prepares for water tower plaza WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
The Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad is getting ready to break ground on a nearly $400,000 project to add a new plaza with a water tower, telegraph office and phone booth in Garibaldi. The new plaza is the first step in a plan to reimagine the railroad’s facilities in the town and increase their operations, with a new depot and learning center planned next to pave the way for two-train operations. ”This is going to be super, super fun for us and also for the area because it’s going to increase a lot of the local aesthetic,” said Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad (OCSR) Director Racheal Aldridge. Construction on the new plaza is expected to begin in late April or early May when weather improves, and OCSR staff will be doing much of the work themselves. The plaza will be located on the south side of the tracks, east of third street, in front of the Old Mill RV Park and Event Center.
The new water tower will stand 29 feet 9 inches tall with a capacity of 8,000 gallons and will serve as the water source for the railroad’s steam engines, removing the current reliance on a nearby fire hydrant. The tower will be painted a bright, brownish red according to OCSR Superintendent Samuel Aldridge and may carry OCSR branding. Garibaldi’s old telegraph office, constructed in 1938 and purchased and moved to its current location by the Lions’ Club in 1963, will have a new foundation added and serve as an office for OCSR staff. The plaza will be covered in pavers and feature planters with local plants and plaques detailing them, as well as an antique phone booth. 16 parking spaces will also be added adjacent to the plaza, as well as a ramp to add ADA accessibility to the plaza. The project is expected to be complete for a grand opening to the public in May 2025 and has a price tag of just under $400,000. A $100,000 grant from Travel Oregon and $75,000 transient lodging tax
The new water tower and plaza will stand on the southside of the tracks, opposite the town, in Garibaldi. grant from Tillamook County are the largest sources of funding, with the rest coming from private donations and a portion from OCSR’s funds. Samuel said that the railway plans to apply for a second transient lodging tax grant from the
county and that the labor by railroad staff was helping to keep the budget relatively low. The project is happening concurrently with $150,000 in upgrades to the railroad’s street crossings that are being undertaken by the Oregon Department
of Transportation as part of their Highway 101 project in Garibaldi. The crossing at Third Street has already been improved, with new sidewalks but a straighter alignment is still to come, as well as an SEE OCSR PAGE A4
Conversation with a conservationist Oregon’s timber future
WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
As the Oregon Board of Forestry nears a decision on a habitat conservation plan for western Oregon state forests, the Headlight Herald sat down with the Wild Salmon Center’s Oregon Policy Program Manager Michael Lang to discuss the plan, forest conservation and the recent Hampton sawmill closure in Banks. Lang said that the conservation plan was a good starting point, although he and other conservationists would like to see a plan to help species recover and questioned
Hampton blaming the Banks closure on declining harvests. “For the preservation of state forests for greatest permanent value for all Oregonians we think there’s a lot more we can do,” Lang said. “For our public lands, for our state forest, having a species recovery plan is where we want to end up long term.” When discussing the new habitat conservation plan (HCP) for state forests, Lang says that the past failures of the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) to meet conservation goals have shown the need for the plan. In particular, Lang points to a performance metric passed by the board of forestry over a decade ago that called for state forests to contain 30% complex layered habitat. That habitat is characterized by a mix of tree species and ages that create a multi-layered canopy. Since 2013, ODF has surveyed
the percentage of state forests meeting that goal biannually, and Lang said that from a baseline of 13% in 2013, state forests had declined to only 11% complex layered habitat by last year, with only 8% in the Tillamook State Forest. “That was put in place over ten years ago, yet the ODF kept selling timber and not trying to comply and obtain that goal and get more habitat in the forest,” Lang said. “I think that’s good background to show why an HCP is needed at this point and that ODF realizes that.” As for the proposed HCP, Lang said that it is a step in the right direction but said that he would like to see ODF go further and adopt plans that would help endangered species recover. “The HCP is just a start, it’s to stop the decline of endangered species,” Lang said, mentioning that he would like to see increased buffers on headwater streams and more protections for
mature tree stands next to habitat conservation areas. Lang also said that the angst among counties and special districts that rely on state forest timber revenues to fund their budgets was valid. He noted his group’s support for a bill last year that would have created a task force of government leaders, timber industry representatives, conservationists and other stakeholders to address the issue, which was ultimately not passed. “The reason why that bill didn’t pass is because the timber industry opposed it,” Lang said, noting that he suspected the opposition came from a fear that the proposed funding solution would be a tax on timber. Lang said it wasn’t his or the conservation community’s place to propose alternate funding sources but said that he would look at the history of funding in the state, mentioning the timber severance
tax that was eliminated in the early 1990s. “We ought to take a look at how we got here and look at remedies for how to take the burden off our state forests that have been overharvested for years,” Lang said. Lang also discussed the recently announced closure of Hampton Lumber’s sawmill in Banks, questioning the blame being placed on declining state forest harvests. Lang noted that Hampton recently completed $150 million in upgrades to their sawmill in Willamina and purchased large tracts land in Washington, belying the argument that poor business prospects caused the closure. “It looks like they’re shifting their business models and expanding mills where they need to and then closing their oldest mill and blaming it on the HCP and that doesn’t square with the facts,” Lang said.

Garibaldi council okays PFAS study WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
Garibaldi’s city council approved a study of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, also known as forever chemicals, in the city’s water supply at their meeting on January 17. The council also debated financing systems devel-

Oregon after testing last year revealed high levels of the chemicals in a sample of water from Garibaldi. City Manager John Schempf said that he and public works staff were not fully convinced that the test had been accurate and that he hoped the further testing would reveal there was not a problem with the city’s water supply. The first round of testing will be conducted on the city’s well in March, followed by testing of the aquifer in April, should it be necessary. If a problem is present, water from an alternative aquifer will be tested and a plan will be developed to address the
issue. Additional funding from Business Oregon will be available for suggested solutions. Coastal Housing Solutions LLC requested that the city finance the systems development charges of $147,216 for the apartment complex it is building at the east end of Garibaldi. Coastal Housing proposed an initial $25,000 down payment followed by a 30-year repayment term at 10.5% interest annually. Councilor Terry Kandle balked at the idea, saying that he didn’t think the city should be in the business of financing the charges for developers who did not demonstrate need,
especially given its current financial situation. Councilor Linda Bade said she was also concerned about the financial situation but that she thought the question warranted further discussion with the developer. Mayor Katie Findling noted that other projects in the past had been offered financing options and that she didn’t want the city to appear to be playing favorites and would favor giving the financing. With the uncertainty on council, Findling suggested that the council appoint a representative to discuss possible changes to the terms of the financing. The
other councilors agreed and Bade volunteered to meet with the developers to discuss options before the council’s next meeting. Schempf also told the council that he was working on updating the city’s systems development charges soon. Schempf said that the charges were last updated in 2013, with a mechanism for annual updates to keep up with inflation that had not been used. Schempf said that the consultant who had helped draft the last update suggested increasing the charges by 15% monthly for three months to make up for the 45% increase that would have occurred in annual updates.

ernments and other special districts and organizations that have an interest in the trail, including the Salmonberry Trail Foundation. The agency was formed with a ten-year mandate and was intended to get the ball rolling on the trail, with the focus being securing a lease for the land from the Port of Tillamook Bay, which they did in 2018. When the ten-year anniversary of the agency’s foundation comes next year, the board will need to decide whether to maintain the intergovernmental agency approach to the trail’s management or dissolve itself and move to a new model. Forest Grove District Forester Mike Cafferata, who is also a board member of STIA and has been involved in the trail project since its early days, discussed the possible paths forward for the trail. Cafferata said that in the leadup to STIA’s formation in 2015, partner agencies had worked with Oregon Solutions to explore the different models for managing the trail, finding four options in the study of other trails across the country. Those options were a special district model, where an independent government agency is set up to manage the trail, a lead agency model, where a government agency like Oregon Department of For-
estry or Parks and Recreation takes responsibility for the trail, a nonprofit model, where a nonprofit agency is responsible for the trail, and the intergovernmental agency model, which the Salmonberry has been using. Bill Baertlein, former Tillamook County commissioner and STIA board member said that he would favor dissolving the intergovernmental agency, transferring the lease to the Salmonberry Trail Foundation and allowing them to manage the trail’s future development. Baertlein said that STIA had been formed to help get over the hurdle of securing land for the project and that with that task complete, the quarterly board meetings and lack of staff for the agency would slow the project’s progress moving forward. There was not much discussion about the issue beyond that and the board has until summer 2025 to decide about the path forward. Following that conversation, Michael Neunzert, the chair of the Salmonberry Trail Foundation’s Working and Planning Committee, gave a presentation about minimum trail standards. At the group’s last meeting in October, Neunzert first brought up the possibility of building the trail to a lower design standard than had been initially envisioned to speed its opening. The initial vision for the trail called for an 82-mile, paved path extending from Banks to Tillamook, with a price tag of more than $40 million. By using gravel and reducing the minimum acceptable width of the trail, Neunzert said that the trail could be opened to the public much faster and upgraded to a higher standard in the future as more funding became
available. At January’s meeting, Neunzert discussed the minimum trail standards that he and other members of the working and planning committee have been discussing with partner agencies. Neunzert said that there would be three different minimum standards for different sections of the trail to reflect their different characteristics. The coastal section of the trail would be built to a minimum standard of a rail with trail project, sharing a right of way with Oregon Coast Scenic Railroad and having a minimum width of 36 inches. The backcountry section of the trail would be built as a railed trail, meaning that the existing railway infrastructure would be left, with gravel added to help hikers and bikers walk or ride in the railbed and a minimum width of 18 inches. The sections of the trail in Washington County would be built to a higher, rail-to-trail standard, with a minimum width of eight feet. In addition to these physical requirements, Neunzert said it is also important for STIA and the trail foundation to ensure that the organizations with whom they partner to build the trail have sufficient liability insurance, a plan to operate the trail after completion and can meet other requirements. The minimum trail standards have been reviewed by Washington County’s government, but not Tillamook’s. Finally, the board approved a signage policy that will allow for the installation of signs warning the public that the trail is not open and that users are liable for anything that happens if they use it.

As the tenth anniversary of its creation approaches, the Salmonberry Trail Intergovernmental Agency board began weighing the agency’s future as the trail progresses on January 18. The board also began a discussion about minimum trail standards for the Salmonberry now that the trail will be built to a lower standard to prioritize a speedy opening. The meeting began with an update from the Salmonberry Trail Foundation’s Executive Director Caroline Fitchett about recent progress on the trail. Fitchett said that funding had recently been awarded for an 1,800foot section of demonstration trail in Wheeler and that the foundation is working with Tillamook County to apply for federal RAISE grants, which could contribute up to $25 million in funding. After Fitchett’s presentation, the board moved into a discussion of the agency’s history and future. The Salmonberry Trail Intergovernmental Agency (STIA) was formed in 2015, following a study of the governing model for 27 other trails across the country.

Cheesemaker named Team BEEF Oregon Athlete of the Month Tillamook High School Senior Peyton Rawe was named Team BEEF Oregon’s January female athlete of the month in honor of her ability to manage good grades, agricultural projects and a healthy lifestyle simultaneously. Rawe has a 3.97 grade point average and is a threesport athlete, competing in cross country, basketball and track and field. Peyton raises beef cattle with multiple end goals. She has a herd of crossbred and purebred females for showing, as well as breeds for market projects. She also raises and shows two steer projects every year for the Tillamook County
Fair. Lastly, she also raises a herd of commercial beef that are sold for beef to consumers. Peyton deserves to be recognized because of her passion for her beef project. What started as raising one steer per year for the county fair when she was little, has turned into a multi facet beef project. She’s extremely active in our FFA chapter as well, serving as chapter president and a vital member of multiple winning state teams. Team BEEF Oregon is a division of the Oregon Beef Council and they select one male and one female athlete from across the state each month to honor.

Garibaldi fire responding to record call volumes WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
Garibaldi’s fire department responded to a record 305 calls in 2023, marking the fourth year in a row that call volume increased for the agency. Deputy Fire Chief Blake Paulsen said that he believes the increased call volume is being driven largely by increasing tourism in the area. “It just kind of ebbs and flows what type of call volume is and I think a lot of
it is tourism related,” Paulsen said. Paulsen also told the Headlight Herald that the proposal to ask for voter approval to form a new North Coast Fire and Rescue District has been delayed by a year to 2025. The Garibaldi Fire Department serves the city of Garibaldi and surrounding areas, extending to Twin Rocks, eight miles up Miami Foley Road and to the edge of Bay City. The department has a main firehall in downtown Garibaldi and a
secondary fire hall located on Miami Foley Road, housing three engines. The department currently employs three staffers, one of whom works part-time, and has 15 volunteers who respond to calls. The department is supported by a $1.35 levy per thousand dollars of assessed property value from Garibaldi city residents and a $1 levy from residents of the rural district, as well as a permanent tax rate of $0.48 per thousand dollars of assessed property value.
Paulsen said that while these taxation rates are sufficient to support the normal operations of the department, upcoming capital-intensive equipment needs will outstrip the city’s budget. For that reason, Paulsen and Fire Chief Jay Marugg have been working for several years on the formation of a new combined North Coast Fire and Rescue District. Originally, the new district was set to include the Bay City Fire Department as well as the Garibaldi Fire Department and Rural Fire Protec-
tion District. But in November, Bay City’s city council withdrew from the plan, citing concerns over Garibaldi’s financial situation, throwing the process into doubt. Paulsen said that Bay City’s withdrawal had caused a delay in submitting paperwork to the county and that the vote on the formation of a new district would probably be delayed until May 2025. Even without Bay City’s involvement, the new district would allow for the addition of a new medical response team, increase department
staffing, remove the burden of the fire department from the city’s general fund and finance the purchase of new fire engines. Paulsen said that with the delay, the department will look to see if other neighboring agencies would be interested in joining the proposed district while continuing its operations. Delivery of a new jet boat that will help in shallowwater responses is expected in February or March and department staff have already begun training for its use.
14th Annual North County Pie Day Auction and Feast
It’s the 14th Annual North County Pie Day. This annual and fun event takes place on Saturday January 27 from 3 to 5 p.m. at the White Clover Grange in Nehalem (36585 Highway 53) and is a fundraiser for the Grange building fund.
Fifteen dollars ($5 for children 10 and under) opens the door to a fast-paced pie auction with the funny and entertaining Susan Tone returning for her 6th year as auctioneer. The auction features two dozen creative, delicious, and impressive
pies from local bakers, chefs, and restaurants. And after the auction, there will be a pie and ice cream feast—fruit pies, custard pies, savory pies, vegan pies, gluten-free pies, and various pies-butnot-pies – all of them will be at this event. In addition,
the incredible Liz Cole will kick off the festivities with her traditional and always compelling performance of “Ode to Pie.” Join your community on Saturday, January 27. Doors open at 2:30 p.m. and the auction starts at 3. There’s
nothing better to get you through a winter’s afternoon than bidding on a delicious, locally made pie and then celebrating by eating lots of great pie and ice cream, all while supporting the White Clover Grange. Continue the ongoing work of maintaining

improved crossing at seventh street. After the water tower plaza is complete, OCSR will shift focus to the west side of Third Street and begin fundraising to build a new plaza and depot there. Plans for the depot, modeled after a Southern Pacific depot from the turn of the last century, include a restroom for guests, ticket window, gift shop and educational space. The project has a much larger price tag, estimated at $1.8 million in 2022, and Racheal and Samuel said that they believe the successful completion of the water tower plaza project will help to open new funding sources for that project. Both projects are part of the railroad’s long-term plan to continue growing its operations and increasing the number of people they serve, with the number of passengers surpassing 50,000 in 2023. The biggest limiting factor for the railroad’s future growth is capacity on trains during the peak season and serving more passengers will require the ability to run multiple trains simultaneously, which the railroad currently does not have. As part of the projects, a runaround will be added in Garibaldi, allowing two trains to operate at the same time, while the new water tower and other facilities will further facilitate expansion. While Racheal and Samuel said that they didn’t expect the depot project to be complete until 2028, at the earliest, they are working to increase the OCSR’s offerings in the interim. This year, a St. Patrick’s Day train will run on March 16 for those over 21 to celebrate the holiday, while an Easter Train and Christmas Party Train are also scheduled. The railroad is also interested in expanding its area of operations, with sights set on repairing a bridge at Larson Cove in Bay City to allow trains to run south to Kilchis Point soon. OCSR is also working on securing funding to repair two bridges east of Wheeler, over the Nehalem River and Fall Creek, with the ultimate goal of allowing trains to run to the confluence of the Salmonberry and Nehalem rivers.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Ban meat
Dear Editor, Congratulations to South Korea for finally joining Western civilization in banning dog meat trade. When will we be taking the next civilized step of banning all animal meat trade? What makes dogs more deserving of life and liberty than cows and pigs? But there is more.
According to the United Nations, meat and dairy use 83% of global farmland and account for 60% of agriculture’s greenhouse gas emissions? Last, but not least, the current Netflix hit series “You Are What You Eat” should convince any doubters that getting more civilized is actually good for our
health. Our local supermarket has responded by treating us to a rich selection of nutritious, convenient, eco-friendly, cruelty-free plant-based meats, milks, cheeses, and ice creams. Now, that’s civilized.
Serving on a school board has been described as the toughest volunteer job in America. Across the state of Oregon, school boards have been charged with increasing student learning during austere and uncertain times. To accomplish these tasks, it requires hard work, countless hours of effort, unwavering leadership, and a steadfast commitment to the children of our community. The individuals who have chosen to do this work are extraordinary people. Truly, they embody what it is to be a leader. They choose to listen to stakeholders within our community, review district policies, and moni-
tor the performance of our system. Each one of them has taken this work upon themselves because they believe in the future of our children and in Tillamook. The work that they do on behalf of our children is no easy feat. Annually, our school board advocates with state legislators, manages a budget of $46 million, and is responsible for the education of 2,105 students. The importance of a quality educational experience is something our board values and endeavors to create for our students. The Tillamook School District School Board: Matt Petty (Chair), Jesse Werner
(Vice Chair), Kris Lachenmeier, Kurt Mizee, and Justin Aufdermauer have collectively answered the call to serve our community by leading Tillamook School District. Please join me in thanking our board for the incredible work they have collectively completed and will continue to undertake. Please join me in recognizing these leaders with thankfulness and gratitude. We are truly blessed to have such a dedicated board of directors.

Banks mill closure is about corporate Dumpster at Tierra Del Mar Tillamook County ofThat does not appear to be between no dumpster and the restructuring, not habitat plan ficials can you please spend true anymore. amount of poo filled plastic
Senator Weber and Representative Javadi are peddling a false narrative about a mill closure in Banks, on behalf of the timber industry. The facts: Hampton Lumber, headquartered in Portland, made a business decision to invest $150 million into expanding its mill in Willamina thanks to state and local tax breaks. At the same time, it chose to close an ageing Banks mill (40 miles from Willamina) which is in need of substantial upgrades. This a clear case of corporate restructuring and consolidation made by Hampton executives in Portland, not the failure of the state Habitat Conservation Plan. But Hampton — and Weber and Javadi working on behalf of an industry that paid for their elections — blamed the State Forest Habitat Conservation Plan for the Banks mill closure. This so the company wouldn’t have to come clean to its workers in Banks: the truth is, the company doesn’t need them anymore.

It remains disturbing to me, that Senator Weber and Representative Javadi fail to see the benefits of the Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) being developed for our public, state forest lands. It’s been affirmed on many occasions, that these public lands are for the benefit of ALL Oregonians, not just timber companies. Maybe more disturbing is the fact that these two Tillamook County representatives continually fail to address the collapse of wild salmon in their districts and the subsequent millions of dollars in annual benefit they bring to rural Oregonians. And it’s not just a once-prosperous sportfishing industry that’s crippled, but the residents of the north coast that moved to the area for the once-abundant fishing opportunities that brought fresh salmon to their tables and communities. The wild salmon and steelhead of the north coast are all but gone, and the benefits they brought with
them are too. Furthermore, using the Habitat Conservation Plan as a scapegoat for the Banks mill closure by Hampton is asinine. If Hampton was so concerned about the future supply of timber, why would they invest $150 million into the mill at Willamina? Seems contradictory. A federally approved HCP safeguards against lawsuits that stall or squash timber sales for a reliable supply of timber in the future. Why is this not important to our elected officials? Finally, there remains around 300 million board feet of completed timber sales left un-harvested on our state lands. If timber companies really cared about revenue for their corporations and our community, why don’t they harvest what’s already been approved? Why aren’t Weber and Javadi encouraging this initiative to bring revenues to our county coffers?

he January 10 City Council meeting saw the adoption of four resolutions concerning drinking water safety for Rockaway Beach. The four resolutions are interconnected in important ways, but one in particular is worthy of attention: Resolution 2024-07, which establishes a Sourcewater Protection Plan Development Advisory Committee. The advisory committee established by this resolution will consist of five members who, in the words of the resolution, “are served by the Rockaway Beach Water District.” At least four of these members are required to be residents
ROCKAWAY BEACH SCOTT FISHER sfisher71@yahoo.com of Rockaway Beach. This is meant to make it possible for owners of Rockaway businesses who live outside the city to participate. The committee is charged with providing community input during the development of the city’s Sourcewater Protection Plan. The committee will
meet at least four times during the development of the plan. Once the plan is completed and has been approved by City Council, the committee will be dissolved.

T
he big story here and in much of Oregon is the weather! An ice storm hit Cape Meares on Saturday, January 13. Wet decks, roofs, roads and trees slowly iced up as temperatures dropped. As the day progressed, our village turned white with ice. Tree boughs bent low from the weight of the ice. We knew it was just a matter of time before the power would go out. Sure enough, after several instances of flickering lights, the power went off shortly before 3 p.m. People are in the know around here, however, and already had coolers
W
e have our oil heaters and extension cords sectioned off in the front of our living room, ready to go in the event we’re running on generators, again. It only takes a couple days in the ice to trigger the fear of it happening again on any day until… May. I hope y’all have properly recovered from those cold powerless days. Proper shoutout to all safety and utility workers to helping us get back to well-lit days. Driving to my motherin-law’s to check on her Saturday night, I discovered black ice does happen out here. Fortunately, my Chicago driving skills kicked in and all is well. That said, to the little SUV who whipped around the corner tried to pass me as I was gaining control…c’mon now.

The neighborhood emergency preparedness team checked on residents under the direction of team leader Kathy Burke. One egress from the village, the new Cape Meares Loop Road, had already been closed in anticipation of this weather event. The usual route, Bayocean Road, was iced over. Thus, Cape Meares residents hunkered down. At about 10:45 p.m., a little less than eight hours after the power outage started, the lights came on again. Were we surprised. Given wide-

Enough of that miserableness. Here are some happy thoughts: 1) If you are sad that you missed the Big River Paranormal Group Presentation at Garibaldi Maritime Museum on January 13, you’re in luck. Due to the weather, the event was backed up to Saturday, February 3, at 7 p.m. The event is free and tasty goodies from Brittney Bakes are also expected to be there as well. For those interested, he’s a snippet from the museum’s Facebook page: “The Garibaldi Maritime Museum recently invited Big River Paranormal Group from Portland, Oregon the night of December 9, 2023, after a few reported “events” by customers. We are inviting them back to the museum to present who they are, what findings they have in Garib-
finn@natfinn.com aldi, Tillamook and other sites in the Northwest and to educate the public about the paranormal phenomenon. Come check out their audio and visual recordings and equipment display in the museum community room.” For more information, please check out https:// www.facebook.com/garibaldimaritimemuseum/events And I live near the museum, so if we start getting haunted after the event,
is necessary, and I hear that they dance to all kinds of music. The next such events happen from 7-8 p.m. on February 10 and 17 (and on March 16 and 23). The address is 34600 Cape Kiawanda Drive, Pacific City.

ity to our little community in relatively short order. Thank you, PUD. The next day, the ice was thicker than ever, but the temperature got up to 40℉ and some ice melted. The weather stayed cold and clear the next two days, but the ice hung around. It didn’t finally go away until January 17. How welcome our plain old rain is. In other news, this is the final week for the “Indigo” community art show at the Hoffman Center for the Arts at 594 Laneda Ave. in Manzanita. Jan. 27 is the last day you can see the exhibit; visit https://hoffmanarts.org. for
hours of operation. I had listed four Cape Meares artists (Jenny Francis, Narayan Lincoln, Bev Stein, and Michael Stevens) participating in the exhibit in an earlier column, but just found out that neighbor Marcille Ansorge has a piece on exhibit, too. Hats off to our local artists. Sally McGee sent word about another event to be held at the Hoffman Center for the Arts. Sally and a friend from Tillamook, Kitt Patten, drive north to Manzanita every Friday to participate in a storytelling workshop led by Shay Knorr. On Friday, Feb. 2, the class will conclude with a live stage
presentation from 2-4 p.m. The public is invited free of charge, and registration is not required. Congratulations to Mike and Patti Smith on a marvelous milestone: 50 years of marriage. They marked their golden anniversary earlier this month, dining out at The Bunker Grille (Alderbrook Golf Course) in a quiet celebration. There may be more hoopla this summer, when weather permits the family to gather more easily. Mike’s parents celebrated 75 years of marriage before his father passed away, so Mike and Patti have quite a family record to chase.
we’re going to have to have a conversation. 2) Jeff Coon, pastor at God’s Lighthouse, wanted to give a thank you to Beach Beagle Print & Ship of downtown Garibaldi for sponsoring the Giving Tree for the Garibaldi Lions Club Christmas baskets. Pastor Coon would also like to thank everyone who gave gifts for the baskets as well as to the Old Mill for their help with the baskets. The combined efforts were pivotal in sharing muchneeded Christmas cheer and kindness to individuals and families in need of a little extra joy. Thank you to everyone. For more information about the Beach Beagle, check out https://www. beachbeagleprint.com/. For more information on Old Mill, please check out

If you’ve never been to Kelley’s, then you’re missing a serving bar that looks like the front end of a boat, and unfettered access along the Miami Cove shore of Tillamook Bay. Candidly speaking, it’s the one place I don’t get to enough. 4) She just got back. She’s in groove. She’s everybody’s favorite local librarian, June Ekborg: “I am happy to share that we now have a January/ February printed schedule of events for all library branches. You can pick one up at any location and have
a handy resource for what is happening everywhere. We also send out regular e-newsletters. If you would like to receive these just contact us at https://www. tillabook.org/library/webform/contact-us or stop by and I’m happy to get you signed up.” Lastly – The Planning Commission special session workshop originally scheduled for January 22nd has been rescheduled. The Chair absent-mindedly forgot his mayoral wife was leaving for Atlanta earlier that day and there is no babysitter yet for such evenings. They’re expected to resume on their regularly scheduled Friday session, to finish their first batch of legislative drafts. Keep warm. Keep dry. Keep the cans full of gas. Till next week…

concern water safety. Resolution 2024-02 authorizes a safe drinking water revolving loan fund grant contract for source water protection. This $50,000 fund is linked to Resolution 2024-05, which authorizes GSI Water Solution to contribute to the drinking water protection plan for Rockaway Beach. It further authorizes city manager Luke Shepard to execute a professional services agreement with GSI. GSI describes themselves as “a specialized groundwater, environmental, and water resources consulting firm” that has worked for clients in the Pacific Northwest and California, as well as internationally. Resolution 2024-06 brings in another organization, Sustainable Northwest. This group provides project management services around the issues of watershed acquisition, easements and land transfer. They have experience throughout the state and have worked with the North Coast Land Conservancy on watershed protection efforts in Clatsop County. Like Resolution 2024-05, this also authorizes City Manager Shepard to execute a professional services agreement with Sustainable
Northwest. The urgency of proceeding with a sourcewater protection plan for our Jetty Creek watershed will be the subject of a talk on Saturday, February 3, at 2 p.m. at St. Mary by the Sea, 275 S. Pacific. Hosted by North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection (https:// healthywatershed.org/), the talk features Chuck Willer, longtime codirector of the Coast Range Association. Chuck’s talk will stress the importance of community ownership and management of watersheds and will offer ways to promote this ownership. Over the past 20 years, the Jetty Creek watershed has lost 90% of its forest canopy, making it one of the most extensively logged watersheds on the coast. This leads to two immediate concerns around Jetty Creek. First is the increased turbidity (that is, soil particles suspended in the creek water) made possible by the elimination of mature trees in the upper reaches of the watershed. This puts a strain on filtration systems to make the water safe for drinking. This situation resulted in the Oregon Health Authority requiring the establishment of a new water treatment plant
in 2009, at a cost of $2.4 million. In addition, the high quantity of chlorine required to disinfect turbid water is known to create trihalomethanes (THMs). The National Toxicology Program describes THMs as “reasonably anticipated to be human carcinogens.” The second concern is pesticide and herbicide residue. In 2013, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality detected pesticide residues in untreated drinking water in Rockaway Beach after aerial spraying in the watershed. A 2021 study from Portland State University found that the types of pesticides used in forestry have been detected in shellfish on the Oregon Coast, as streams drain into the ocean. Chuck’s talk will offer ways residents can get involved in watershed protection. This is the first of three planned programs to be held by NCCWP, co-sponsored by the City of Rockaway Beach. I will publish the dates, times, and location for the future events as they become available. Sincere thanks to city government for taking steps to address this vital concern.

Prioritizing Pediatric ENT Health: Insights from David Kaba, MD DAVID KABA, MD, PHD Guest Column
Paul Welch, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Adventist Health Tillamook. As we approach February 2024, marking Kids ENT Health Month, it is my pleasure to introduce an editorial by Adventist Health Tillamook’s Otolaryngology (ENT) specialist, David Kaba, MD. Dr. Kaba brings a wealth of knowledge and advanced surgical expertise to our community here in Tillamook County. With an impressive background that includes an MD, a PhD in
immunology and specialized training in allergies and surgical treatment of obstructive sleep apnea, his contributions are truly shaping the future of pediatric ENT care.
Thank you, Dr. Welch, children are our community’s most precious assets, and their health is a top priority. In recognition of Kids ENT Health Month, I’d like to shed light on the importance of pediatric ENT care and how early interventions can significantly impact a child’s health and quality of life. Ear, nose and throat issues are among the most common reasons children
visit a doctor. From recurrent ear infections and tonsillitis to more complex conditions like obstructive sleep apnea, ENT disorders can significantly affect a child’s development, learning and
overall well-being. One of the key areas of concern in pediatric ENT is allergies. Allergic reactions can lead to chronic sinusitis, ear infections and even asthma. My training in immunology allows me to approach allergies holistically, understanding the underlying immune responses and providing targeted treatments that offer more than just symptomatic relief. Another critical area is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a condition often overlooked in children. OSA can lead to behavioral issues, learning difficulties and even cardiovascular prob-
lems. My surgical expertise in this field enables me to offer effective treatments that can transform the lives of children suffering from this debilitating condition. ENT specialists today are equipped with state-of-theart technology and methodologies to diagnose and treat a wide array of pediatric ENT issues. It’s not just about the advanced tools and techniques; it’s about a compassionate, patient-centered approach that acknowledges the unique needs of each child. Preventive care is equally vital. Regular check-ups can help identify potential
issues before they become severe problems. I encourage parents to be attentive to signs like frequent snoring, persistent ear infections, nasal congestion or voice changes in their children, as these can be indicators of underlying ENT issues. In conclusion, as we observe Kids ENT Health Month in February, let’s renew our commitment to our young ones’ health. Remember, a healthy childhood lays the foundation for a thriving, healthy adult life.

Kiwanda Corridor Project update Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot to be Operational by July 2024
What you might be able to see right now Vertical construction of the bathroom, including two-toned structural brick, is beginning to take shape. Light pole bases and electri-
cal conduit are going in this week. The first concrete pours for curb and gutter will happen in the coming weeks, which will begin to give a sense of the proposed layout of the parking lot. Utility work is ongoing around the site, including stormwater improvements at the boat ramp and installation of an electrical transformer vault. The work described above is part of Phase II, the north side of the Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot. The new restroom building and connecting sidewalks are located much closer to the beach, on the west side of the parking lot, allowing for locals and visitors to gain easier access from the beach. Phase III will begin immediately following Phase II and will primarily focus on the south side of the lot. The entire Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot project includes much-needed demolition of the existing restrooms; repaving / grading of the parking lot and Hungry Harbor Road with upgraded stormwater management systems;
construction of pedestrianonly pathways to the beach; civic overlook; upgraded refuse and recycling; EV charging stations; information kiosk; safe routes for drop-offs, pedestrians, bikes and the free PC Shuttle; and the trailhead for the MultiUse Path. The parking lot reconstruction is the first part of Tillamook County’s Kiwanda Corridor Project to be built. The design team has also incorporated infrastructure for future wayfinding connections to the five other project elements of the KCP. More information on the overall KCP please visit the project website: https:// tillamookcoast.com/southcounty/kiwanda-corridor. The project is being funded by County transient lodging taxes, day-use revenues from Pacific City parking lots, and grants from state agencies. The KCP connects multiple county properties and supports the development of other public spaces with a thoughtfully programmed design that disperses
crowds, creates opportunities for equitable outdoor play and education, and promotes stewardship of Pacific City and its natural resources as a whole. The six project elements include • Cape Kiwanda Parking Lot • Jensen Property • Nestucca Valley Community Alliance Park • Multi-Use Path • Webb Park • Shorepine Village Boardwalk
maintain affordability • Connectivity: Support and integrate multi-modal connectivity in and around Pacific City while prioritizing accessibility • Safety: Prioritize everyday safety alongside
emergency management For more information, please contact Rachel Hagerty, Tillamook County Chief of Staff, at rachel. hagerty@tillamookcounty. gov.

The Kiwanda Corridor Project (KCP) closes out 2023 by meeting project milestones on schedule, even with the recent wild weather. The new lot and all its amenities are scheduled to be ready for use by end of June 2024. The project management team and onsite construction crew have worked diligently with the local community and those needing access to Hungry Harbor Drive. Recently, first responders needed beach access during a day when Dorymen’s Way (renamed by the Board of Commissioners from Hungry Harbor Drive) was opened up for underground work. The onsite team was able to put down steel plates and get emergency vehicles safely across the construction site in a very short timeframe.

Mooks fall in overtime against St. Helens WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor
Tillamook High School’s boys’ basketball team lost an overtime game at home against the St. Helens Lions on January 20, falling by a score of 71-60. The Cheesemakers built a double-digit lead in the second quarter, only for the Lions to come roaring back in the third and eventually run away in overtime, pressing a height advantage to secure the win. Griffyn Boomer led the way for the Mooks, pouring in 20, as Andrew White chipped in 16 and Tanner Hoskins added 12. Tillamook sprang out to an early 5-0 lead thanks to a transition layup off a steal and three pointer from Boomer, before going cold as St. Helens interior length frustrated the other Cheesemakers. The Lions were struggling to find much offensive traction as well but had cut the lead to 5-4 halfway through the quarter and took a one-point lead moments later. The Mooks responded with six quick points to retake the lead and continued to stretch the advantage, with bench players scoring seven points in the waning minutes of the period to take a 15-10 lead into the second quarter. The Cheesemakers continued their methodical offensive attack and steady defensive pressure as the second quarter began and

Tillamook responded by pushing the lead to nine with back-to-back three pointers from Andrew White, forcing a Lions timeout. A Hoskins corner three after the timeout extended the lead to 12 and the Mooks held a 31-18 advantage at the break.
The Cheesemaker offense was cold to start the second half, but they continued their strong defensive play and were ahead 35-24 after four minutes had elapsed in the third. But as the quarter wore on, the Lions worked their interior height advantage to chip away at the Mooks’ lead, cutting it to seven with two minutes remaining in the quarter. Tillamook’s
cold shooting persisted as St. Helen’s rally picked up steam and a minute later the Mooks were up just one, 3837, the same score at which the game stood entering the fourth. St. Helens took their first lead since the opening quarter on the first possession of the fourth quarter with a three and continued to push their interior advantage to extend the lead to five
with five minutes to play in the game. White responded with four straight for the Cheesemakers to cut the lead back to one with four to go and after a St. Helens field goal, a Boomer three tied the game at 47. The game was tied again at 49 before a Lions three gave them a little bit of breathing room, which was promptly snatched away by a Hoskins’ three that tied the
game at 54 as one minute ticked by. St. Helens scored next on a mid-range floater and a White three-point attempt rattled out, giving St. Helens a chance to ice the win at the line. A Lion missed two straight free-throw attempts, an opportunity that Hoskins seized with a short-range jumper on the next possession to tie the game at 56 with ten seconds to go. St. Helens advanced the ball to the front court before committing a sloppy turnover on an inbounds play to give the Mooks a final chance to win the game in regulation with 3.9 seconds remaining. But a Boomer three-point attempt fell short of the mark as did a put-back attempt by Logan Mottsinger, sending the game to overtime with the score knotted at 56. The Lions started the four-minute overtime period strong with five straight points and held a 63-58 lead halfway through the period. The Mooks could not find an offensive rhythm in the period and St. Helens continued to press the inside advantage, stretching the lead further for a final score of 71-60. The loss dropped the Cheesemakers to 2-11 on the season and 0-3 in Cowapa league play. Tillamook has a slow week ahead with their sole game coming in a road matchup against the Astoria Fishermen on Friday before a rematch with the Lions at home on January 30.

The Tillamook High Lady Cheesemakers’ basketball team lost a league matchup against the St. Helens Lions 67-53 at home on January 20. The Mooks fell into a big hole in the second and third quarters and despite their best efforts were unable to claw back the deficit. Aubrey Hilton was the Cheesemakers’ leading scorer with 23 points, while Vivian Vogel contributed 11. Tillamook came out hot with two three pointers in the first minute and a half to grab a 6-2 lead, drawing a timeout from St. Helens coach. The timeout had the desired effect, prompting a four-point run from the Lions to draw the score before St. Helens ratcheted up the defensive pressure to take a 10-6 lead by the halfway
point of the quarter. Tillamook continued to hoist outside shots but could not find their range after the early success and struggled with turnovers, letting the Lions lead grow to a dozen with two minutes left and 20-6 at the end of one. The Mooks struggles continued into the second quarter, as their height disadvantage led them to avoid the paint as St. Helens continued to work it, extending their lead to 30-12 with four minutes remaining in the half. The rest of the quarter was more of the same for the Cheesemakers, as the offense failed to find a rhythm and St. Helens found continued success at the rim to push the lead to 42-17 at the half. Tillamook’s inability to generate offensive production or slow the Lions attack continued after the break and St. Helens’ lead
ballooned past 30 at points, with the score standing at 50-22 with four minutes remaining. The Cheesemakers came to life a bit for the rest of the quarter, hitting three long range shots, attacking the paint and slowing the St. Helens attack to trim the lead to 52-34 entering the fourth. Tillamook battled the Lions to a stalemate in the early minutes of the fourth quarter, with the score 63-42 with four minutes to play. Hilton went on a hot streak for the Mooks in the final minutes of the quarter, hitting four three pointers, ending the game with a final score of 67-53. with the loss the Cheesemakers fell to 7-7 on the season and 0-3 in the Cowapa League. Their next game is a road matchup against the Astoria Fishermen on January 26, before a rematch at St. Helens on January 30.

“Hi, I’m Mittens. Thursday, 01/04/2023, was my 4 month birthday. My brother, Monty, and I were part of a litter of 4. They call me Mittens because of my beautiful white feet and my lovely little pink toes. I’m a beautiful medium gray colored tabby with an array of other colors that are difficult to describe. I have the cutest pink nose. I’m a little bit shy, but I’m well socialized, and I play well with my siblings. I have to admit that I delight in ambushing her little buddies in our garage. I have super soft fur. If you just can’t wait to stroke it, just fill out and submit this app. You’ll be so glad that you did.” https://unitedpaws.wordpress.com/online-adoption-application
