Commissioners tackle lengthy agenda

Will Chappell Staff Writer

The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners met this Wednesday morning and addressed a lengthy agenda in a long session.

After Nan Devlin, Executive Director of the Tillamook Coast Visitors Association, delivered the group’s annual report, the Board’s first order of business was naming October “Domestic Violence Aware ness Month” in Tillamook.

Tides of Change will be leading efforts during the month. They are encouraging local businesses and residents to install purple light bulbs on the exteriors of buildings in an initiative dubbed, “Shine a Light

for Survivors.” The group will also be hosting a public educational and fundraising event on Thursday, October 20.

The rest of the agenda dealt with various matters, all of which were passed by unanimous consent.

Four items required fiscal outlays, with the largest coming in the ap proval of $1.5 million in funding for the first phase of the parking and facilities redevelopment project at Cape Kiwanda in Pacific City. The project had already been approved with a total budget of $4.2 million, with funding from a combination of the transient lodging tax and parking fees. $875,000 of the project’s bud get has already been secured.

Rachel Hagerty, the Board’s Chief

of Staff, said there is a chance the new parking lot can be completed by the beginning of next summer with the release of funds. If that does not prove possible a new vault toilet will be installed, with the parking lot project being postponed until next fall.

The Board approved a contract for just under $67,000, which will use funds from the American Rescue Plan Act to purchase new equip ment to enhance data security for the county.

The Board also approved $45,000 for the County’s Health and Human Services department to extend their contract with the Center for Health and Well Being, LLC for another year.

Health and Human Services

Director Marlene Putnam told the board that her department had been working with the contractor for eighteen months and that they help to facilitate patient referrals and with other bureaucratic and administra tive tasks.

Commissioners also approved a request by County Counsel, Bill Sargent, to hire attorney Daniel H. Kearns for consultation on poten tial regulations for short term and vacation rentals. The attorney will be paid $250 an hour for his work.

In non-financial decisions, the board approved the Housing Com mission’s request to apply for a private grant to address the lack of affordable housing in the county.

The grant, issued by the Weyer hauser Giving Fund, is targeted at rural timberland counties in Oregon, with its first priority being affordable housing. The Housing Commission is applying for a grant of $750,000.

Commissioners also gave ap proval to Community Development Director Sarah Absher to begin in vestigating potential regulations for Psilocybin production, processing and distribution in the county, pend ing voter approval of the industry in November’s elections. The Com missioners expressed concern at the Oregon Health Authority’s lack of guidelines for the industry with the looming legalization on January 1, 2023, quickly approving Absher’s request.

Nestucca K8 building expansion wins awards

Chelsea Yarnell Guest Writer

This is an exciting opportunity to meet the candidates who may play a valuable role in ensuring the success of our county.

Nestucca

K8 Building is not only a place for education, but a gathering point for the community in case of emergencies.

Back in 2016, Nestucca Valley School Dis trict began conceptualizing the renovation and expansion of the original 1950s era building.

“Going through the planning system,” Nestucca Valley School District Superintendent Misty Wharton said, “the whole community was concerned about the emergency preparedness of a facility to go if there’s a tsunami.

Using bond funds, state grants, and seismic

retrofit grants, the school district actively began the nearly $26 million construction project in 2019 and completed in 2021. The expansion and renovation added 45,500 square feet to the exist ing building, additional classrooms, a double gymnasium, back-up generators for power, and a 60,000-gallon underground water storage for firefighter usage.

For the project, the Nestucca Valley School District and their general contractor, O Brien & Company, have received the Daily Journal of Commerce Primary Education-Small First Place Award.

“Of the 290 projects that were nominated, ours was selected,” Wharton said. “It’s the first time that this award has been given out of the

I-5 corridor. We have become the protype for rural schools in Oregon and Washington because of all the self-sufficient aspects.”

The project was also awarded the Trimble Viewpoint “Most Outstanding Project”.

Viewpoint is a Trimble company that is a best-in-class nationwide construction industry project management software platform utilized by many of the ENR top 500 firms.

“The Board of Directors and staff thanks our community for their support in this long, suc cessful process of updating facilities for our kids in the community,” Wharton said. “We now see it being used the way that it was designed to be used.”

NKN School Dist hires 23 new staff over summer

New husband & wife team join administration

Will Chappell Staff Writer

The Neah-Kah-Nie School

District filled all of its open ings for teachers and administrators during a productive spring and summer hiring season.

The group of new hires moved to the coast from as far afield as Nebraska and Mexico City, and were lured by signing bonuses and moving stipends. The district hired 23 new staff this summer, both licensed and non-licensed.

Husband and wife, Ryan and Ericka Keefauver, both accepted administrative positions with the district and moved from Western Oregon. Ericka is the Special Student Services Director for the district based out of Garibaldi Elementary School. Ryan is the

Associate Princi pal and Athletic Director at NeahKah-Nie High School.

“The job of an adminis trator is removing barriers from teach ers so they can do the impor tant, important job of educating students,” Ericka said. In her new position, she helps teachers connect students with appropriate, Federal, State and community resources to address their needs.

In his dual roles as Associate Principal and Athletic Director at the High School, Ryan oversees athletics and other student extra curricular activities, while sharing other administrative duties with Principal Heidi Buckmaster.

Mr. Keefauver said that his strengths include improving ef

ficiency of com munica tions and “adapting systems to fit our school’s staff and students specific needs.”

The Keefau vers bring more than four decades of combined experi ence in education to the district. Both began their careers as teach ers before earning Masters Degrees and transitioning to administrative roles.

Ericka and Ryan were thrilled at the opportunity to move to the Ne ah-Kah-NIe School District when the positions became available.

“I moved to the most beautiful place in the world,” said Ericka, who went on to say that the family had been vacationing on the coast for more than a decade and the couple had planned to retire to the

area.

The Keefauvers have two daughters in the district, in the sixth and tenth grades. Ericka enjoys reading with an ocean view, while Ryan is passionate about sports, spending much of his free time cheering on the Pirates and his beloved Buffalo Bills.

In addition to the Keefauvers, the district was able to fill all of its teaching and administrative positions by retaining staff while making an aggressive hiring push.

“School administrators actively recruited new staff at recruitment fairs, through advertising and word of mouth,” said Superintendent Paul Erlebach.

The district filled previously vacant positions at the High School in Spanish, math and business, and hired new teachers for other open ings at the Middle and Elementary Schools.

“New hires, if permitted, will enhance the educational experience for students and staff with their infusion of successful ideas, ex

HPAI found in two Tillamook County backyard flocks

On Sept. 28, the U.S Department of Agriculture’s Animal Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA APHIS) confirmed two cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in neighboring non-commercial flocks in Tillamook County. These are the first confirmed cases of HPAI in Tillamook County. Other Oregon counties with confirmed cases of HPAI in 2022 include Coos, Deschutes, Lane, Linn, and Polk Counties. The two Tillamook County flocks consist of approximately 60 chickens and ducks. The flock own ers did not sell eggs or other poultry products therefore federal guidelines do not require a quarantine.

ODA in partnership with USDA APHIS Wildlife Services, humanely euthanized the flocks on the property to prevent the spread of the disease. The birds will not enter the food system. There is no immediate public concern due to the avian influenza virus detec tion. Avian influenza does not affect poultry meat or egg products, which remain safe to eat. Both wild and domestic poultry should be adequately prepared and cooked.

ODA advises commercial poultry and backyard flock owners to be vigilant with biosecurity measures and surveil lance. Preventing any contact between wild birds and domestic flocks is the best way to protect domestic birds from HPAI. Death or illness among domestic birds should be reported to ODA. Please report by calling 503-986-4711 (Alt phone 1-800-347-7028).

The Nestucca K8 building has received two awards for their $26 million dollar building expansion project.

Old House Dahlias offers pumpkin patch and hayrides in Oct.

Old House Dahlias opened their pumpkin patch this past weekend and it will be open for the remaining weekends of October.

Visitors can wander through the pumpkin patches nestled amongst the still blooming dahlia fields and choose their own pumpkin from nine different varieties and take a scenic hayride.

“The pumpkins are fun, and it’s just a nice relaxing time of year,” said Old House Dahlias owner, Mark Harvey. “We

just sit back and let the kids do all the work,” he added jokingly.

The patch is open to the public for self-picking pumpkins on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., but pumpkins are available for pickup at a self-serve stand on the farm the rest of the week.

This year Harvey has grown nine different varieties of pumpkins on his farm. They range from softball sized baking pumpkins all the way to the giant

pumpkins in a patch between two plots of sunflowers beckoning passersby on Highway 101 South.

Harvey recommends baking the small pumpkins plain or making them into a cream of pumpkin soup, while caution ing that the giant pumpkins won’t be ready until a little bit closer to Hallow een.

He also pointed to the picture-perfect Cinderella and white Porcelain Doll spe cies as crowd pleasers.

The Dory Fleet that Tricks Together Sticks Together

The Kiawanda Com munity Center (KCC) and Pacific City Dorymen’s Association (PCDA) are proud to present the second annual “Trick or Treat the Dory Fleet”. This event is like a trunk-or-treat with a Pacific City twist: dory boats. The community is in vited to celebrate Halloween and our incredible dory fleet on Oct. 29th from 5:00pm - 8:00pm at the Kiawanda Community Center.

“The event was wildly welcoming, safely set up

and fantastically decorated! Who knew our dory fleet was in need of a creative outlet? I’m looking forward to another year of ghoulish captains handing out candy from haunted dory boats” said co-organizer and KCC Board Member Whitney Rilette.

Last year’s event brought over a hundred kids to the Kiawanda Community Center to have a family-fun event in Pacific City. The dories that participated were decorated as pirate ships,

viking longships, alien ships, vampire lairs and an eagle’s nest. “These spooky boats and their crews didn’t scare our local kids one bit! In rural communities it’s not easy to find a place to take your kids trick or treating so we were thrilled to have our local butterflies, spidermen, witches and superheroes safely running around our beloved dories” said coorganizer and PCDA Board Member Arica Sears.

Community events like these are made possible by

local volunteers and com munity groups. Last year the Nesko Women’s Club do nated an incredible amount of candy and the Lion’s Club was instrumental in parking all of the trick or treaters and their families safely. You can support this event by marking your calendars to attend, donating candy and/ or volunteering! There are also a few more spaces if you would like to bring your dory boat. And remember… The dory fleet that tricks together sticks together.

Tillamook Kiwanis Club gives grants

Tillamook Kiwanis Club funded local organizations $16,000 in celebration of its 100 year anniversary.

A partnership between Adventist Health, Tillamook County YMCA and Tillamook County Wellness with support from NW Regional Education Service District was awarded $5,000 for community bike and safety resources that builds

on the “All Kids Bike” pro gram.

LifeChange Christian Fellowship launches school

Chelsea Yarnell Guest Contributor

Small class sizes and one-on-one attention is the goal of LifeChange School.

Hosted as a branch of the LifeChange Christian Fellowship Church in Tillamook, LifeChange School is still accepting students to their newly established school.

“We have a holistic approach to teaching,” LifeChange Christian Fel lowship Church Pastor Brad Smith wrote. “Every person is a special creation of God made with a mind, body, and a spirit. We will instruct in education, which builds the mind… we will create an environment that is conducive to learning.”

Last year, LifeChange operated as a “tutoring school” to help support students during their virtual and distance learning programs with the public school systems. This year, the school has become its own entity.

Starting with a single Kinder garten class lead by Janine Brown, LifeChange School operates MondayThursday on a half day, morning schedule with several field trips scheduled on select Fridays.

“We plan to add older grades in the future,” School Administrator Ginnie Isle said. “We’re hoping next year to find a teacher for first and second grade. We’ve focused on keeping classes small with one-on-one attention.”

The newly renovated school is housed in the upstairs of the LifeChange Christian Fellow ship Church and features classrooms, a library, snack area, and play area. The outside grounds also feature areas for outside recess with a playground in the midst of construction. The church’s kitchen is also available for use as students learn some life skills such as baking and cooking.

Every morning, Isle says hello to each stu dent at the door of the church to welcome them into the school.

“I would want my kids to have someone greet my child personally and have eye contact with each parent,” Isle said.

The current Kindergarten class has eight open spots. Monthly tuition is $125 with schol

arships available.

“We want everyone who desires for their child to have a private school education to be able to do so,” Smith wrote. “Our tuition is kept at a minimum cost for that reason.”

The LifeChange School is overseen by a board that meets once a month.

“They all want to provide the kids with the best education that they can get,” Isle said. “We have a lot to offer from our team. We have a heart to give extra to the kids.”

While the school uses a Christian-based cur riculum, students do not need to be members believers or members of LifeChange Christian Fellowship Church.

LifeChange School is located at 3500 Alder Lane, Tillamook. For more information, email: school@lifechangefellowship.com or visit lifechangefellowship.com/lifechangeschool/.

“Our current staff is what makes the school district shine so new staff want to join the Neah-Kah-Nie School District team.”

Old House Dahlias has a pumpkin patch each weekend in October! They’re located south of Tillamook on U.S. Highway 101, (between the rest area and the Pleas ant Valley R.V. Park). We can’t miss them because there’s a colorful mural on an outbuilding there. Thanks to Mark, who answered their telephone, for word that the pumpkin patch is open from 10:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays all month.

Bear Creek Artichokes has a pumpkin patch again this year as well. They’re located just over three miles north of Beaver on U.S. Highway 101, at Hemlock. Hours are 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. daily.

Fortunately, the boat and the whale parted com pany after that, and they each went about their business. Randy and Mike came home with four salmon: two hatch ery coho, one wild coho and one Chinook. We don’t know how well the whale did. Mike later sent us his videos, and Capt. Pete positively identi fied the whale as an adult gray whale. What an exciting fish ing trip for Mike and Randy!

I received an email out of the blue from a stranger named Bob Crane. He wrote that he had noticed a mention of “friend Bill Bolster” in a column I had written back in 2020. He wondered if that was the same Bill Bolster he went to high school with in Forest Grove after Bill trans ferred there from Tillamook. Bob was in the process of gathering material for an ap plication to nominate the For est Grove High School 1961 baseball team for the school’s athletic hall of fame—yes, they were really good—and he asked me to put him in touch with my Bill.

enough, our Bills were one and the same. As Bob said, “What a great reconnect!”

We had a delightful visit from Frankie and Daryl An derson of Portland, longtime friends of Mary Jane and Rod Pelson. Frankie joined me for a session of making greeting cards with a group of Til lamook County ladies while Daryl went fishing with Capt. Pete. The ladies had greater success than the gentle men in terms of take-home results. But then our foursome switched to playing canasta.

The guys put up a win on Tuesday afternoon, and the gals demanded a rematch on

Wednesday. The second game went to the gals. The Ander sons left for home with the record standing at 1:1; there will definitely have to be a tie-breaking playoff at some future point.

We went to investigate reports of a tiny building in Cape Meares. Yes, there it was, tucked up high on a nearby street. The structure is possibly 8 x 12’, glass-fronted on two sides. With no bath room, kitchen, or furniture, we speculate that it possibly serves as a windbreak. Or a bus shelter, but there is no bus service in Cape Meares, LOL.

Greetings Bay City. Yay! October is here! It’s my birthday month; and, if you’ve been following the Fencepost, then you know that I celebrate the whole month of October. And every year hubby Kin Daily sur prises me with a birthday gift that I wouldn’t have thought of in a million years; and he just knows, I’m going to love it. And Readers…. I always do. I am now the new owner of my very own portable ballet bar. Picture this: Jody unwraps gift; Jody’s thrilled; Kin assembles and reassem bles; Jody tells Alexa to play ballet bar exercise music; first position – good, plie – good, arms – good; Jody places her leg on top of 5’ bar (Are you kidding!?); Kin lowers bar; He is so sweet, he offers to help Jody lift her leg; Jody suggests we turn the bar upright like a pole and she’ll just swing on it (I jest). I love my ballet bar. Within the week, I have mastered simple ballet bar routines. And the good news…. I can lift my leg on the now-lower bar all by myself!

Speaking of October birth days, I will soon be celebrat ing Norma Seely’s birthday. My friend of 46 years, Norma is a writer...a published author, to be exact. In her book, “Love in the Wind”, one of my favorites, she used Bay Ocean and surround ing area as the backdrop. If you’re looking for her books, she wrote under her own name, Norma Seely, and her pen name, Yvonne Norman. Happy birthday to my dear friend, whom I dearly love.

We went to Mana’s Kitchen today to purchase our tickets for the upcoming performance of Amanda Stan away and Friends on October 15th at 7:00 PM. Buy your tickets early and come early and enjoy. Thank you, Bay City Arts Center, for hosting such great entertainment for Bay City.

Kin impressed on me that, with the cost of living going up and up (gas, food, rent), we need to watch where we spend our money, and, before we buy, ask ourselves “Do we really need this?” Being thrifty was once looked upon as a virtue; now, for many families, it is a necessity. I pulled out my mother’s WWII cookbook that was distributed to Americans. During the war, you could not readily buy what you needed. Gas and food were in short supply. If their child needed shoes, many parents prayed that they could buy them before winter.

Tips from my mother’s cookbook that I hope will help:

• Eat plentiful foods, lo cally grown.

• Buy only what you need.

• Never waste a morsel –make a stew or soup with all leftovers.

• Lesser cuts of meat will taste just as good as expensive ones if you cook them slowly and season them well.

• Cook from scratch when ever possible.

Thank you for reading the Fencepost, and I’ll see you next week.

Ihave been walking in the mornings with Sharon Fultz. We usually meander through the port area because there is always so much to see. We have been watching the activ ity at the Crab Rock Pizza building down at 604 Biak. I was driving back through the port area last week and saw their door opened, so I stopped in.

I met the owners, Bill and Theresa. They are currently living in Bay City but were drawn to the Garibaldi area and this storefront location due to the incredible view. They proudly showed me the beautiful top of the line mosaic pizza oven and how it works. Bill also showed me their incredible gelato machine which they plan to use for small, hand-crafted batches of gelato which they will feature in their restau rant. They are getting closer to being open once final hook-ups are completed. They will be serving pizza, wine, beer, and gelato: it doesn’t get better than that!

The first Listening Ses sion, held on Wednes day, September 28, brought together several dozen Rockaway Beach residents, with personnel from the City Council and the Planning Commission attending.

The purpose of this session, as envisioned by candidates Cindy Kay Gregory and Charles Mc Neilly, was to find out what issues Rockaway citizens would like city government to address. The session ap proached these issues in an orderly way, and residents were all encouraged to par ticipate in stating issues, but more important in proposing positive solutions.

The meeting covered a broad range of topics—from improving beach access, to making go-bags avail able in short-term rentals, to restrictions on motorized vessels on Lake Lytle. (The issue there: Oregon Depart ment of Fish & Wildlife is in charge of the water, while the county is in charge of the boat landing. Coordinating between these two different organizations can be chal lenging.)

One significant topic: emergency preparedness. I wrote about the CERT team meeting at the fire station early last August, and sadly the planned go-bag class for

common and diverse, creat ing more opportunities for our Young Pros members to connect and share ideas.

Looking to the future, our leadership team will play a large role in establishing a variety of events to engage our Young Pros members.

Family-friendly events are essential, but so are personal and professional develop ment and community engage ment activities. Having our members in the forefront of the community through social engagement or professional development with local businesses will open various opportunities for multiple interests, forging the way to a new career path or a business idea becoming realized for these yYoung pProfessionals.

For the rest of the year, Young Pros will be hosting monthly networking events for our monthly meetupsfor young professionals to build stronger relationships with one another. And with the help of our leadership team,

organizing a few as familyfriendly will be an easy feat. Not to mention all the fun games and conversations that our members will have while exploring ideas and connections. Being a member of Young Pros is also about supporting one another, and our leadership team will be focused on creating environ ments that all our members can access and take full advantage of professionally.

As our Young Pros members grow, so will our leadership team. With mul tiple people involved in the hands-on process of develop ing the Young Pros program, we can turn Young Pros into a premiere opportunistic pro gram within the Tillamook community.

September was cancelled. Un til this program resumes, the Rockaway Beach Library is developing a go-bag exhibit, with a list of recommended contents and suggested sources. As a member of the library board, I’ll make a point of publicizing this when it becomes available.

Other suggestions around emergency preparedness include making emergency information easily available in short-term rentals. Fur thermore, the suggestion was floated that the city would benefit from an emergency services director, who would be a single point of contact for city government, police, and fire services. “These have been fragmented,” said city council member Kristine Hayes.

If there was a single theme that came up time and time again, it was communica tion—in both directions. That is, the council and planning commissions stressed the need for citizen input on issues we find important.

Likewise, residents want to hear from city government about what progress is being made on these issues.

“We used to get a newslet ter,” said several residents. One of them, Catherine Carr, suggested working with jour nalism or speech-and-debate students from Neakahnie High as a possible source of content for the newsletter.

(If this comes to pass, please contact me as I’d love to act as mentor and editor to help empower the next generation of journalists.)

We also heard from sev eral city staff about the way citizen-proposed projects are

meant to work. There is a three-part process: Residents who have an idea, an issue, or a request communicate this to the mayor. The mayor then becomes a champion for the project based on these requests. Finally, under the mayor’s guidance and input, the city council implements the program that addresses the idea, issue, or request. There were many more topics of discussion, includ ing ways to ease the tension between out-of-town visitors who don’t seem to respect residents or otherwise cause friction. “We need to discour age the disposable attitude of large vacation rentals,” said Hayes. “We need to ask, what are you contributing to the city?”

Naturally, most people wanted to know how we plan to fund these programs. City council member Mary Mc Ginniss excitedly told about getting the Salmonberry Trail funded through a grant from ODOT. The $3.75 million grant is funding construc tion of a paved path from Washington Street to the High School. “The right-of-way follows the railroad tracks, which are owned by the Port of Tillamook,” she explained. “And the grant from ODOT means they are responsible for building it.”

But if there was a single, most-important theme, it would be this comment from Planning Commission mem ber Sandra Umholtz: “Please come to meetings. Ask these tough questions. Keep show ing up.”

If you missed this meet ing, the next one is currently scheduled for Saturday, Octo ber 15, at 10 AM in the new Rockaway Roastery, 165 S. Miller, a few blocks south of the Wayside on the ocean side of highway 101. Additionally, there are plans to add a third session as a Zoom conference in late October. Watch this column, and social media, for details.

Hear Ye - Hear Ye Garibaldians

I have attended many city council meetings since I fully retired in 2017 and I am aghast at the financial condition of the city. The city’s finances have not been balanced as reported to the state of Oregon since fiscal year 2015-2016. This is shocking news. The state of Oregon has penalized the city 10% of the state funds that would have been allocated to the city since that time. What does it mean to you? It means Garibaldi has been denied thousands of state dollars for the city’s operating general fund. In years 2019 to 2020 the mayor was Judy Riley (Riggs) and the city manag ers were John O’Leary and Geoff Wullschlager after John O’Leary resigned. Still no bal anced budget! The mayor in 2021-2022 is Tim Hall and the city manager was Juliet Hyams until a recent resignation in Au gust 2022 and also a resigna

tion by the asst. city manager.

Mayor Hall has reviewed past fiscal responsibility for Garibaldi and was awakened as to the status of city budgets in past years that were not certi fied by the state of Oregon.

Juliet Hyams did an out standing job as city manager, hiring an asst. city manager and arranging a task force of both city and city volunteers to a Financial Team to try to go back and repair the damage caused by previous city manag ers. The Financial Team con sisted of the city manager, asst. city manager, volunteers Carl Kopecek a retired CPA, Linda Bade a retired federal auditor. They have found many errors since 2015 but have corrected many of the mistakes created by past city managers. The city is on the right path but the work is not finished, Garibaldi is still behind but was gaining ground until the loss of both the city manager and asst. city manager. This is a tremendous loss to the city, now the city will need to hire a new city

manager.

The previous two city man agers added the 2017 fire levy funds to the general operating fund and it should not have been. This made a shortfall in the fire levy fund by approx. $150k.

Now you know some of the issues facing the city. The rea son CM Juliet Hyams resigned was because of harassment from two of the councilors. Juliet came to Garibaldi well regarded from other cities.

Former mayor Judy Riggs was responsible for her inept fiscal responsibility to this city. We can not afford another 2 years of Judy Riggs as she has cost the city thousands of dol lars worth of funds lost from the state of Oregon. This is NOT being fiscally responsible to the citizens of Garibaldi. I can not support Judy Riggs or Laurie Wandell for mayor or city council as they have caused division in this little vil lage. We don’t need division we need results of which nei ther candidate has expressed an

interest in. Garibaldi needs to get its financial house in order and Judy had her chance to get it corrected and failed.

Mayor Hall has the city going in the right direction and that is why I am supporting him for mayor. He has been harassed as a councilor and as mayor. It is wrong and it needs to stop! My support also goes out to Bud Shattuck and Linda Bade who are running for council positions supporting progress and financial responsi bility. The city is making prog ress and we need it to continue! The choice is yours!

Timber lawsuit was bad from the beginning

For years, Tillamook County Commissioners and timber companies have opined the existence of a contract between the county and the state to maximize timber revenue on state forest lands to the exclu sion of other permanent values such as water, animals, and recreation. The Oregon Court of Appeals recently stated that no such contract exits, never has, and directed the county’s case to be dismissed. When the counties appealed, the Or egon Supreme Court refused to hear the appeal, making it clear that once the case got before legal scholars, there was no case.

This puts to rest this effort by timber profiteers, and it shows the hypocrisy by which they operate. David Yama moto and timber advocates lament that the decision will have devastating economic effects on rural communities. So why don’t they support restoring the timber severance tax so rural counties can ad dress the devastating impacts of timber harvesting? Why not tax timber profits so those that bear the costs of logging in our community are com pensated? We used to!

Blaming the decision

on liberal judges, Salem and a rural/urban divide is false. The divides are actually between those who profit from more and more timber cutting, and those who want and need state forest lands for other things. Urban areas are not part of this except to the extent they know that community resources like water, air and public lands need to be managed for everyone, not one industry. Thank good ness, we have laws on the books, and judges able to apply them regardless of political deceptions. Maybe a public trust doctrine is coming to life to help us protect our living essentials.

I’m sorry that county taxpayers spent money on this far-fetched lawsuit, and that Tillamook County Commis sioners went along with it. It was always a loser, legally and economically. It does show that if people here want to protect our drinking water, air, and places of recreation, we can’t count on our current county commissioners. Given existing political gridlocks, our only hope is for the court of public opinion to issue com mon sense ballot measures to address our water and air, and our right to tax timber revenues to help offset the devastation caused by today’s industrial logging practices in our coastal communities.

Why I am supporting Betsy Johnson as our next Governor

I’ve known Betsy Johnson for over 25 years as a State Representative, a County Commissioner and now a Bay City Counselor. Betsy has been my State Senator for well over 20 years. Like many in her legislative district, I know her very well. Many Democrats, Republicans and Independents, including me, considered her to be the best State Senator in Oregon.

Now we get to share her with the rest of Oregon as our next Governor. Betsy doesn’t care what your party affiliation is. She cares about serving you. She is Brilliant, witty and your best friend if you have a prob lem with the state government.

I know from personal ex perience that our two political parties have gone too far on both sides of the political spec trum. If anybody can bring us back together and fix the huge problems facing us Betsy can.

Please join me in voting for Betsy Johnson as our next governor.

I’m with Betsy for Governor

As election day in Oregon draws near, we’ve heard can didates’ positions on nearly all the issues of the day. Home lessness, crime, Covid, abor tion, the urban – rural divide, and the list goes on.

One subject which has received little attention in the race for Oregon’s next Gov ernor is management skills and the proven ability to run a large organization. Oregon’s general fund budget is in the $ 30 Billion range and the all funds budget is well over $100 Billion. State employ ees number over 40,000 with thousands more under contract work. That puts our state in a class of big business along

He married his second wife Cheryl in 2010. They enjoyed many adventures together escaping the coastal rain and spending the winter months at Black Meadow Landing, and Lake Havasu. Ed truly had a lot of fond memories of this period in his life.

Edward Albert Hurliman, age 81, passed away in his home in Pacific City Oregon on Sept 5th. Ed was born to Anton and Bertha Hurli man on June 25th, 1941, in Woods, Oregon and raised on a dairy farm in Pacific City, Oregon. Anton and Bertha had 8 children, Ben, Jan, Jim, Ed, Dave, Christie, Kathy and Chuck.

Ed was married to Dana Lutz Hurliman for 28 years. They had 3 children together, Ashley, Chad and Stacey. They made their home in Pa cific City Oregon. Ed worked for Tillamook/Portland Freight for 35 years.

Ed definitely followed in his mother’s footsteps. He loved all of the natural bounties of the coastal area; fishing, clamming, hunting and picking wild berries. You could always count on Ed to help pack out an elk or deer, and he would always be there to assist in processing the meat. He made the best apple pie around and loved to can anything he could! He fished for perch off of the beaches of Pacific City, he also enjoyed traveling over to the Hells Canyon area with son Stacey,

with Intel, Nike, large hospital chains and Oregon’s largest organizations. Not a place for the untested, inexperienced, or timid CEO.

In recent years, Oregon’s governance has been con spicuous by its failures. Our state’s management structure is a textbook example of the well-known Peter Principle. One need only recall such fine examples of management as the Columbia Crossing, the Employment Department’s handling of claims during Covid and recent attempts to develop comprehensive userfriendly web sites.

That’s where Betsy Johnson has a clear advantage over her two opponents. Betsy owned and operated a medium sized company for many years and had her signature on the front of paychecks. She has also served on the boards of several large organizations. All experi ence her opponents cannot claim.

As an elected official in Tillamook County myself, I have known Betsy for over 20 years. I’ve seen her deliver on promises and solve problems regardless of political af filiation. She knows the state budget like a preacher knows the Bible.

I’ve seen Betsy cry and I’ve seen and heard her analyze a government department in

After his retirement from TP Freight you could always count on finding Ed at the local coffee shop in the mornings in Pacific City and Cloverdale. He was an excel lent storyteller, many a person enjoyed listening to all of his life adventures. Another one of his hobbies was cutting wood. It kept him active for many, many years! Ed was a very kindhearted man, he would help anyone, and give the shirt off his back without judgment if someone needed him. He was also a devout Catholic and many, many Saturday nights you would find Ed at St Joseph’s in Clo verdale celebrating mass. He would always joke and say to those of us who did not attend Saturday night mass, “I will pray for you.”

Ed is survived by his children, Ashley, Chad and Stacey. Grandchildren, Alex (Ashley), Benjamin and Lyn die (Stacey) and great grand daughter Emma (Ashley).

A funeral Mass will take place at St. Joseph’s Church in Cloverdale on October 15th at 10:30 am. Immediate ly following Mass there will be a gathering to celebrate Ed in St. Joseph’s community room. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Ed. He will be very missed.

exceptionally clear language. Betsy is the real deal.

Betsy will make the hard choices necessary to deliver services and keep state govern ment departments on track and accountable. Can’t deliver – find another line of work.

Something our state govern ment has not been able to do for many years. Government should not be a guaranteed job for life.

Betsy Johnson can be compassionate, patient, sym pathetic and understanding. She can also be firm, resolute and results driven. That’s why she’s my choice for Oregon’s next Governor.

OBITUARIES

Jerald Roderick Reeves

Jerald (Jerry, JR, Ace) Roderick Reeves was born in the hospital in Myrtle Point, OR on July 13, 1941 to William Clare Reeves and Helen Inez Stallard and spent 31 years living in Powers, OR. He graduated from Powers High School in 1959.

Jerry was first married to Jean Griswold with children Jerri and Rod born to the family. The saw mill in Pow ers closed so Jerry moved his family to Tillamook, OR in 1972 and began saw filing at Publishers Paper. That mar riage ended in 1982.

Almighty God moved to cross the paths of Jerry and Debbi (Schmitz) Werner on February 19, 1983, they married July 30, 1983 and the rest is history. Jerry and Debbi were raising Dena and Chris (Werner) in 1984 when Jerry’s sister Carmen passed away so her two daughters, Jerry’s nieces, Sharon (Bow ers) and Carrie (McCulloch) joined the Reeves family. From 1989 to 1991, with the help of many friends and family members, Jerry built a house for the family. This beautiful family home is where Jerry passed away qui etly and peacefully at the age of 81 years old on September 21, 2022 at 4 a.m. He was exactly where he wanted to be and loved to be.

Jerry worked as a saw filer, then Head Saw Filer, at the Tillamook Publishers Paper Lumber Mill, now the

Hampton Lumber Mill, for 36 years, retiring in 2008. In 2006 Jerry was honored to be inducted into the Western Saw Filer Hall of Fame due to his skill and expertise in the art of saw filing. Jerry was also inducted into the Powers Community Hall of Fame in 2021 for his lifelong commitment and love to Powers, his hometown com munity. Jerry was one of the founding members of Living Water Fellowship, a nondenominational church which began in Tillamook in 1985. He was a soft-spoken but dedicated and avid disciple for Jesus, even more so after his retirement when he had the time to be with others.

Jerry enjoyed elk and deer hunting with his boys or sauntering alone through the prairies and the forests in Til lamook and Powers. Digging up clams in the Netarts Bay was a favorite pastime for many years with and without family and friends. Most years he raised a beef for the family freezer. He maintained the outside of the house and acreage for 32 years. Be cause he lived with rheuma toid arthritis for 51 years and numerous complications of that disease he always said he had to keep moving and he did.

Jerry was a quiet, humble, generous man who loved others. If you were one of Jerry’s special people you knew it, for he always gave a little extra to those he became closest to. Like many younger people he had lessons to learn and he did learn from his mistakes and overcame to become an honorable man of God. His wisdom and love was known to all who met him and got to know him. One of Jerry’s favorite saying to others was “All is well”, knowing with God, all is well.

Jerry is survived by his wife, Debra (Debbi) Reeves, children Jerri (Doward)

May DeVries Maaike Oct. 14, 1934 ~ 2022

Tillamook, and the following year they moved about six miles up Wilson River HWY. May and her brother Hans rode the school bus to Liberty School, where May attended grades 8 and 9. Her class was the last class to graduate from Liberty, as the new Tillamook High School opened in 1951.

in 1991 and she was there to help take care of them in their final days.

May DeVries “Maaike” was born on October 14, 1934 in Hallumerhock, Netherlands, to Stewart DeVries and Saapke “Visser” DeVries.

May’s mother passed away at the young age of 33 when May was just 5 years old. Stewart was left with five small children, Sidney (Sietse – 7 years old) Stella (Sietske – 6 years old) May (Maaike – 5 years old) Hans (2 years old) and baby Ietje (3 weeks old). Stewart hired a housekeeper who was good with the older kids, but didn’t know how to take care of a baby, so Ietje went to live with an aunt and uncle, who didn’t have any children of their own. Stewart mar ried May’s stepmother, Teta Vansteinvoorn in 1942.

May attended grade school in Netherlands, and would immigrate to the United States with her family in 1948, when she was 14 years old. Their first home was on Sutton Creek Road in

In 1952, May’s father, Stewart, purchased a farm on Goodspeed Road in Tilla mook, but May went to live with Glade and Arlene Janes on Brickyard Road, so she could help take care of their children; a 2 year old boy and a baby boy and girl, who were twins. May finished her junior and senior years while living at the Jane’s home. May graduated from Tillamook High in 1954 and moved into town on the same day to live with Lee and Kenno Thun. In the fall of 1954, May started to work at T.C.C.A in the packing department and she would continue to work there for 38 and a half years.

In 1957, when her folks took their first trip back to Europe, May moved back to the farm where she, her sister Stella and brother Hans would operate the farm in their absence. In 1967, May moved back into town to live in her home on 6th Street and Cedar. May took a trip to Europe in 1974 with her father and again in 1976 with her sister Stella and family.

May’s folks would pass away

May retired in 1993 and started to babysit with her nieces and nephews. She was a member of the Tillamook Nazarene Church and worked with the kindergarten kids there for around 30 years. She also helped take care of the flowers around the church. Some of May’s favorite hobbies included handwork knitting, crochet ing, embroidering, and taking care of her yard.

May is survived by her brother Hans DeVries (Tilla mook, OR) her sister Ietje Li angis (Greece) and numerous nieces and nephews: Nonda (Ken) Zwald Tillamook, Gary DeVries of Prineville, Nancy (Bob) Browning of Tillamook, Andrew (Melissa) DeVries of Tillamook, Leroy Adams (Jewelie) of Otis, Gerald (Elsie) Adams of Otis, and many much-loved greatnieces and nephews.

May is preceded in death by her father Stewart DeVries, her mother Saapke “Visser” DeVries, her stepmother Teta “Vansteinvoorn” DeVries and her brother Sid DeVries, and her sister Stella Adams.

A private family only interment will be held at Sunset Heights Cemetery and a memorial service will be held at the Nazarene Church in Tillamook on October 8th at 3 PM.

Mooks take first league match-up against Seagulls

Will Chappell Staff Writer

The Tillamook High School football team downed the Seaside Seagulls 39-14 on Friday night in Seaside’s homecoming game at Broadway Field to im prove to 3-2 on the season.

The Cheesemakers started strong, with a touchdown on their first drive and carried a 20-point lead into the half on a night where they dominat ed both sides of the ball.

“We wanted to hit the gas pedal and play with good tempo, which we did early in the game,” said Mooks coach, Kye Johnson. “We ran the ball really effec tively, when we do that and get our quarterback involved in the run game that usually means we open up literally all the stuff that we have.”

Senior running back Judah Werner led the ground attack, totaling 176 yards on two carries and finding the end zone twice.

“Starting off 1-0 (in league play) is just a great feeling, we weren’t perfect, but we put almost 40 points on the board,” said Werner, who was supported by another 130 combined rushing yards from Seth Wehinger, Andrew White and Gilbert Whitlatch, who also notched a touch down.

The passing attack was also humming Friday night, with quarterback Tanner Hoskins completing seven of ten passes for 148 yards and two touchdowns. Wide receiver Tyler Moncrief also got in on the passing action, tossing a 51-yard touchdown to Zeyon Hurliman on a trick play that left the Gulls scrambling.

The Mooks defense also stifled Seaside’s offensive production for most of the evening. Seaside was unable to pick up a first down or cross midfield until their last drive of the first half and did not find the end zone until only a minute and a half re

mained in the third quarter.

“We’re so familiar with what they do, and they are with us too,” said Johnson, “I think we know what we need to stop when we play them.”

Johnson noted physical ity as a point of emphasis for the Mooks over the past few seasons and specifically pointed to Senior Sam Diaz, who anchors both lines for the Cheesemakers as a leader in that regard.

“At the line of scrimmage, we come out swinging and try to establish ourselves as a slug fest offensive and de fensive line. When you have guys like Sam it makes life a lot easier,” Johnson said.

Diaz pointed to prepara tion as key to the team’s recent success. “We practiced all week and made sure we knew every single thing that they would try to throw at us, all we had to do was just make sure that we continued to recognize everything that could and would be seen on the field,” Diaz said.

That preparation led the Mooks to touchdowns on three of their four first half possessions, with the final drive of the half ending in a turnover on downs inside of

Seaside’s twenty.

The Cheesemakers continued their momentum with a rushing touchdown on the first drive of the second half. For a moment, the gulls showed signs of life, driv ing to a first and goal before an interception by Parker McKibbin at the two started another Mooks drive that ended with a touchdown, put ting the team up 33-0.

Seaside managed to notch two touchdowns in the final quarter plus, with Tillamook adding one more before kneeling to end the game inside Seaside’s five.

Next week the Mooks head to St. Helen’s to take on the Lions, who they have not faced since both teams were last in the Cowapa league over a decade ago.

Johnson said that the lack of experience facing St. Hel ens presents a challenge but that the Lions run an offense similar to Tonasket and Sea side, whom the Mooks have defeated the past two weeks.

“We’ve had two success ful weeks against wing style offenses, and we’ll try to come out and make it three,” Johnson said.

Cheesemaker volleyball remains undefeated in league play with wins over Scappoose, Seaside

Mike Weber For The Herald

The No. 4 ranked Til lamook High Cheesemakers continued to enjoy a tremen dous amount of success as they won their eighth straight Cowapa League Class 4A volleyball game in a 3-1 win over the No. 14 ranked Scappoose High Indians (4-3 league, 7-5 oveall) Sept. 29 at Scappoose High School. That win followed a 3-0 victory Sept. 27 over the Seaside High Seagulls (3-4 league, 4-6 overall) at Seaside High School.

The Cheesemakers (8-0 league, 10-4 overall), guided by Coach LaVonne Rawe, will try to extend their streak to nine in a row when they meet the Astoria High Fishermen (3-4 league, 5-8 overall) Friday at 6:15 p.m. in a Homecoming contest at Tillamook High School.

“We sure have some work to do still,” said Rawe. “We’ve got some bugs that we’re trying to work out. We need to get our serving percentage up and I think our defense is getting better. We don’t really have one standout defensive player. I think Kate Klobas (six-foot

junior middle block/outside hitter) is an offensive bullet and she’s got some pop. She’s getting smarter and faster. Our setter (junior Dannika Goss) and her are getting more and more lined up to where they can just do one hit right after another and after another through many sets and they can just pound the ball down hard.”

The matchup against Scap poose was a hard fought and close battle with the Mooks coming out on top 25-17, 1325, 25-22, 25-15. Tillamook dominated the game with Seaside winning the first two sets by double-digit margins in a 25-12, 25-13, 25-23 three-game sweep.

“We really had a good week,” said Rawe. “Scap poose is getting better and

better and they have a couple of really good big hitters and a good setter and their serve receive is tough. I expect good things from them the next time we meet.”

Following Friday’s game versus Astoria, the Mooks will play in the Seaside Tour nament Saturday starting at 8 a.m. with pool play contest’s.

“We’ll see Astoria Friday and they really like to play, so I expect some good rally’s from them,” said Rawe.

Tillamook then follows with a matchup Oct. 11 against the St. Helens High Lions (0-7 league, 2-10 over all) at 6:45 p.m. at St. Helens Middle School. There’s five games left on the regular season schedule, which con cludes Oct. 17. The OSAA state playoffs begin Oct. 25.

Tillamook County is an equal opportunity employer

Jackie is a sweet, calm little lady. She plays with toys and her siblings but is generally a relaxed quiet little girl. She would do wonderfully with any other cats, especially dominant cats. She doesn’t need to be queen, just loved!

Jackie is one of 25 feral kittens rescued during a feral trapping. While Jackie has no exposure to dogs, she should be good with gentle slow introduction. Jackie should do ok with young kids who are respectful of her need for space. Loud aggressive kids are not her favorite! She will need time to adjust to changes and given a safe space to adjust. She will do fine with older kids and teens.

If you think Jackie might be right for you, here’s the application that you’ll need to take her home.
