Commissioners talk 2022 highlights, 2023 projects T

he Tillamook Board of County Commissioners had an active 2022 taking steps forward to address the housing and homelessness crises in the county and completing the first stage of a courthouse renovation.

County commissioners were enthusiastic about these accomplishments and excited for the year ahead, but also noted that the county faces hurdles as state lawmakers continue to implement new environmental policies that threaten to further limit the county’s revenues.

Housing was a major area of progress in 2022, as the county handed out its first round of Workforce Housing Grant money aimed at promoting affordable housing.

Over $700,000 of money collected by the county in short-term rental licensing fees was awarded by the housing commission to six different developments across the county in the inaugural year of a new grant program.

“I’m super pleased with the role the county is playing in housing development at this point,” Commissioner Erin Skaar said.

The money will help to add 87 units of below market rate housing across six different developments.

Work is already underway at several, including above the Oregon Coast Dance Center in Tillamook and at the Kingfisher Apartments in Bay City, with other projects in various stages of development.

In addition to funding housing development in 2022, the county also saw developers being able to take advantage of a property tax abatement aimed at incentivizing workforce housing.

Developers at Kingfisher and Bayside Commons will have their

property taxes waived by the county in exchange for agreeing to keep the units available to individuals making between 80% and 120% of the area’s median income.

“It was a difficult choice to determine if we were winning or losing by doing that,” Skaar said, “but it was one of the things we could do, and it has a lot less impact than one might think.”

The other major advancement in housing that Skaar pointed to was the passage of House Bill 4123. The bill, which Skaar lobbied on behalf of, will send $1 million to Tillamook County over the next two years to coordinate homeless services.

The bill set up the Coordinated Homeless Services Response System Grant that will fund the development of county-level systems to address the homelessness crisis across the state.

Tillamook is one of the first counties set to receive funding starting in 2022 to set up a coordination center and develop a comprehensive plan to tackle the issue.

Community Action Resource Enterprises (CARE) is partnering with the county and the seven cities in it to manage the office and administer the program.

The new office at CARE will work to direct funding and services across the county and will secure funding to continue its activities after the $1 million has been spent.

Skaar noted that even in advance of the funding coming, Tillamook Sheriff Josh Brown started coordinating with CARE and the Tillamook Family Counseling Center to do wellness checks on those living in county campgrounds in 2022.

“Nobody wants to see anyone living out of doors,” Skaar said. “There’s a place where you really have to partner that humanity with the greater good of the community…so it’s this balancing

EXCLUSIVE Tillamook County Courthouse. Headlight Herald file photo. piece that you have to do.”

Another major accomplishment for the commissioners in 2022 was the completion of the first stage of a major renovation to the county courthouse.

The work, completed in November, saw the county commissioners move their meetings from the second floor of the courthouse to what had previously been a courtroom on the first floor.

This allowed the court that had been housed in the space that was too small for its purpose to move to a

more appropriate venue in the vacated commissioners’ meeting room.

“That was a huge feather in our cap, because that has been for 15 years, 20 years, a serious bone of contention,” Commissioner Mary Faith Bell said.

Bell said that the next step in upgrading the courthouse to accommodate the county’s growth will be the addition of an annex either on the south end of the courthouse or adjacent to the Pioneer Museum across Laurel Avenue.

ORIGINAL

Work on the annex will not begin in 2023, but commissioners should start looking at plans, according to Bell.

The commissioners also used American Recovery Plan Act (ARPA) funds to commission a seismic study of the courthouse in 2022.

The report from the study revealed that retrofitting the building with seismic upgrades will cost between $5

Whale Watch Week got underway despite storms W

hale Watch Week opened last week, despite a blustery Whale Watch eve that brought downed trees, power outages and high water to the Oregon Coast.

Oregon Parks and Recreation Department encourages visitors to check the weather forecast and TripCheck before traveling to the Oregon Coast. Be prepared for wind, rain, possible high water and potential power outages. Follow all posted signs, dress for the weather and follow these safety tips.

High wind and power outages also affected parks across the state.

Ecola State Park closed due to high wind, and the day-use area at Sunset

Bay closed due to flooding. Silver Falls State Park closed all trailheads due to hazardous trees. The park also lost power. Cape Lookout, Cottonwood Canyon and Stub Stewart lost power but remained open. Please check stateparks.oregon.gov/ and search by park before visiting.

More about Whale Watch Week: Every year thousands of Gray whales migrate south through Oregon’s waters at the end of December, and Oregon Parks and Recreation Department invites visitors to the coast to see their journey.

Trained volunteers will be stationed at most of the 17 sites to help visitors spot whales, share information and answer questions from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily. The sites are some of the best places to watch for whales on the Oregon Coast.

“We really enjoy getting folks out to the coast for Whale Watch Week,” said Park Ranger Peter McBride.

“It’s something that Oregon State

Parks has been doing for more than 40 years now, and we’re really glad to be able to bring it back in person,” he said.

A map of volunteer-staffed sites is available online on the official event webpage: https://oregonstateparks.org/index.cfm?do=thingstodo. dsp_whaleWatching An estimated 17,000 Gray whales are expected to swim past Oregon’s shores over the next several weeks as part of their annual migration south to the warm calving lagoons near Baja, Mexico. The end of December is the peak time for their migration; roughly 30 whales pass by per hour.

All Whale Watch Week visitors are encouraged to dress for the weather, to bring binoculars and to follow beach safety guidelines such as remaining out of fenced areas, knowing the tide schedule and

illamook’s city government has been focused on updating its systems since the arrival of City Manager Nathan George two years ago but is nearing completion on those projects.

George hopes that the city will complete those updates in 2023 while also moving forward with several capital improvement Tillamook Mayor projects.

Aaron Burris.

A major focus for city staff in 2022 was updating the city’s code, which had fallen out of date and did not reflect all ordinances that had been passed by city council.

That project has now been completed and the updated code will be included on the city’s new website, which is set to premier early in 2023. The new website will also let residents electronically submit forms to the city.

The public works department reattached the Faucet Creek intake to the water plant in 2022, after it had been disconnected for eight years.

Next year, design work will begin on replacing the water transmission line from the plant to town. The line currently runs under Tillamook Airport’s runway and is outdated.

Replacement of the line will be funded by state dollars, which were secured by State Senator Suzanne Weber.

The city will also be repaving Fifth Street in the summer, using public works’ funds.

Staffing has continued to be a struggle for the city, but George was

able to make progress on the issue.

The police department is now fully staffed and other prospective hires are awaiting final approval pending background checks.

“We’re hiring really good people, they’re hard working, and they want to be a part of our team,” George said.

Mayor Aaron Burris said that he was excited about the advances in housing that came to Tillamook in 2022, and those that he anticipates in Tillamook City Manager Nathan 2023.

George.

He pointed to the development of affordable housing units at the Willet Apartments on Nestucca Avenue and the million dollars of state funding to coordinate homeless services in conjunction with the county as major steps forward in 2022.

“It’s been nice to see some growth in housing in the city because it’s really needed,” Burris said.

Tillamook’s city council will begin work on a new strategic plan this year, with Burris saying finding a facilitator to help with that process is a top priority.

George said that the city will be undertaking a comprehensive compensation study this year, which will compare the wages of city employees to those of employees of other Oregon cities.

This will give the city council an idea of how Tillamook’s compensation stacks up and allow it to update employee pay as it sees fit.

2023 PROSPECTIVE

Bay City council ready for 2023 improvement projects Will Chappell Headlight Reporter Bay City has a full slate of capital improvement projects lined up for 2023, after 2022 saw the city focus on planning for those and offering services to residents.

The projects include the drilling of a new water well, construction of a new sanitary sewer pump station, road improvements and the conversion of Al Griffin Park into a hiker and biker campground.

“We have an excellent public works director, he gets things done,” City Manager Liane Welch said of Roy Markee, who has helped initiate the many projects.

The new water well will be added to the city’s existing well field on

Kilchis River Road on a plot that the city owns. Construction of the new well is currently underway and is expected to be completed by the summer.

The new sanitary sewer pump station will replace the aging pump station by the recycling center. That project is in the design phase and construction is expected to begin in the summer.

Bay City applied for American Rescue Plan Act fund to cover the cost of both projects, which will have a combined cost of $820,000.

Road improvements on 16th and 14th streets between Spruce and Williams, and on Main Street between 9th and 13th streets will be conducted in the summer.

The Oregon Department of

Transportation’s Small City Allotment grant is providing $250,000 in funding for the projects.

Updates to Al Griffin Park to expand it into a hiker and biker campground with toilet and shower facilities hit a slight snag late in 2022, as native artifacts were discovered during an archaeological survey.

But Welch said she has been in communication with local tribes and believes that the project will be able to proceed shortly.

The project will cost just over $400,000, with the lion’s share of the funding coming from Oregon State Parks, which is contributing $318,000, while the remainder is made coming from county and city transitory lodging taxes.

Al Griffin Park’s redevelopment

is part of the larger Salmonberry Trail project. Welch said that the next Salmonberry related project for Bay City will be building a 1.7-mile path to Idaville.

In December 2022, city council passed new regulations for short-term rentals in the city, capping the number at 5% of the available housing stock.

The regulations also include a provision requiring short-term rental operators to stock their accommodations with emergency go-bags for visitors.

While the requirement drew ire from some local operators, Welch said it fit with the city’s focus on emergency preparedness.

“We’re putting a lot of energy into emergency planning,” Welch said.

She pointed to the Bay City Emer-

gency Volunteers as a key element of the city’s planning, saying that they had recently launched a new website and are always looking for new members.

The city budget includes $10,000 in general fund dollars annually for preparedness. The city uses those funds to stock two emergency supply sheds and in 2022, they handed out one-gallon buckets filled with emergency preparedness supplies to each resident.

In 2023, the focus will pivot to visitor preparedness, with the new short-term rental measures marking the first step in that process.

Garibaldi City Council ready for new start in 2023 But he said he believes the city is finally moving forward, with new councilors set to arrive in January.

Former City Manager Juliet Hyams resigned in July and sent a letter of intent to sue to the city in September, claiming that City Councilor Judy Riggs had retaliated against her for whistleblowing and defamed her.

Following news of the suit, Riggs lost a November challenge to unseat Mayor Tim Hall. Riggs announced her resignation from the city council to the Herald in late December.

The search for Hyams’ replacement is ongoing and being facilitated by HR Annie, with applications currently

Will Chappell Headlight Reporter The City of Garibaldi had a tumultuous 2022, seeing a city manager depart after only a year on the job and later file suit against the city, but several exciting projects are on the horizon for 2023.

The city council was plagued by infighting in an election year, struggling to address the bookkeeping shortcomings of past administrations, which continue to hamper the city.

“Change comes hard for some and easy for others,” interim City Manager Jay Marugg said reflecting on the turbulent year.

allotment grant.

Several community activities returned in 2022 after pandemic-induced layoffs.

The Fourth of July parade was staged for the first time since 2019 and Rockaway Beach’s Emergency Preparedness Team began meeting again to prepare for emergent situations.

More projects are coming to Rockaway Beach in 2023, with a special focus on parks.

The city government will be constructing a new park on South Anchor Street.

The park will feature paved parking, an event site, restrooms, a picnic area, play structure and electric vehicle charging stations.

There is no cost estimate for the new park project yet, but funds will be allotted from transient lodging tax revenues.

The city government also plans to begin leasing Lake Lytle Park from the county and to make its facilities free to use.

City Manager Luke Shepard said that following finalization of a lease agreement the city government plans to add a fishing pier or new docks, kayak launches and a covered picnic area with grills.

Rockaway Beach’s wayside will receive accessibility upgrades in the form of a new beach access, new sidewalks and an upgraded railroad crossing with a new restroom possible as well.

The city council will also be purchasing a 10-acre site outside of the inundation zone to begin the process of moving city facilities into a more secure location.

The city has already selected a site to purchase and rezoned it to lie within Rockaway Beach’s urban growth boundary.

This year, the city will purchase the plot and begin work on a master development plan for the site.

Wheeler’s city government was constrained in 2022 by a budget limited by costly ongoing litigation before the land use board of appeals.

City Manager Mary Johnson said that despite a still-unsettled case, she is optimistic that 2023 will see the city able to move forward on much needed projects.

“Unfortunately, 2022 has been a bit of a rough year for Wheeler,” Johnson said in December.

The ongoing litigation stems from development proposals for a piece of waterfront property in downtown Wheeler.

Separate applications for a hotel and restaurant, and a fish processing plant were both

rejected by the city council in 2019, leading the applicant to appeal those decisions to LUBA. In a lengthy saga, the hotel and restaurant application was returned to the city seven times before the board finally upheld the denial in 2022.

The application for the fish processing plant is still in front of LUBA on its third appeal.

Johnson said that the city had put $85,000 aside to cover those legal fees in 2022.

“That’s a huge amount for our budget,” Johnson said.

This constrained the city’s ability to undertake major projects throughout the year.

Public Works completed installation of new water meters in town that have cut down on their time reading meters and alert customers to leaks

sooner, but otherwise the city mostly focused on day-to-day operations.

Johnson hopes that 2023 will be a more productive year for the city, as several projects need to go ahead.

The biggest of these is the Gervais Creek stormwater mitigation project, which will improve water flow under downtown to lower the risk of flooding.

Civil West has completed the engineering designs for the project and is helping the city move forward with grant applications for the $8 million project.

There are two potential funding sources, the Oregon Department of Emergency Management’s hazard mitigation grant, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s building resilient

District will be placing the powerline for the lights underground before turning the lease for the land, owned by Lewis and Clark Timber Company, to the city.

Final preparatory work will also progress for the Oregon Department of Transportation’s upgrade to Highway 101.

The project will repave the highway through town and upgrade pedestrian crossings. It is expected to cost $12.5 million, with just $157,000 coming from the city, and ODOT hopes to begin work in early 2024.

Rockaway Beach City Council looks to continue with infrastructure projects in 2023 Rockaway Beach’s government had a productive 2022, completing multiple infrastructure projects, and is set to continue that momentum in 2023.

The city council moved forward on implementing short-term rental regulations and delegating the collection of its transient lodging tax to the state government.

The costliest project completed in 2022 was the replacement of the city’s largest sewage pumping station. The new station came with a price tag of $800,000, paid for by the sewer master plan fund.

The city also paved two thirds of a mile of road surface in 2022. The total cost of that paving was $300,000, of which $200,000 was contributed by the city with the balance coming from the Oregon Department of Transportation’s small city

infrastructure grant, with the former offering more favorable terms to the city.

Johnson said that upgrading drinking water lines in the Wheeler Heights neighborhood is also a priority.

The city will be applying to Business Oregon’s safe water revolving loan fund next year for money to move forward with that work.

Elected officials will begin the final adoption process for a new transportation system plan (TSP) for Wheeler starting in January.

The new TSP has been under development in coordination with Nehalem and Manzanita and will comprehensively address the transportation needs of the three cities.

The city council will also be starting work on a new vision plan in 2023, with outside consultants currently under consideration.

“It’s really important to me that everyone is heard, and we don’t just have a few people making decisions for the entire community,” Johnson said of her hope for public involvement in the new plan’s development.

She said that it is important for the city’s government to have a roadmap for where its citizens want to go moving forward so that it can craft policies to achieve those goals.

million and $12 million.

Bell said that the commissioners will add the county to the state’s list of rotating funding for courthouse improvements for the project.

Progress also continued in bringing broadband internet to the rural communities in Tillamook County in 2022.

“The best economic development tool that any rural area can have is high speed internet,” Commissioner David Yamamoto said.

Yamamoto said that the work was slow to advance, but that crews have been steadily working their way down Highway 101 laying fiberoptic cable.

Another development in the push to bring broadband to the south of Tillamook County is coming with the arrival of a new trans-Pacific, data transmission cable being laid

by Amazon.

The cable will join more than half a dozen other cables that land in Tillamook, more than all other Oregon coastal counties combined.

The new cable will be more powerful than previous cables and Amazon will be adding branches off it to rural com-

munities along the route to give them broadband access.

Amazon will also be partnering with cell phone companies to use the cable’s data transmission capabilities to add new cellphone towers along the Wilson River Highway.

This will finally bring cellular service to the critical road link, which also sees high volumes of crashes.

The broadband push for rural areas of the county received a further boost in late December when Senators Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkeley secured $3 million in federal funding towards rural broadband in an omnibus spending bill.

That bill allocated a further $2 million in funding for public safety radio communications systems in the county.

Those radio systems will be critical for Tillamook County during emergency situations and will help facilitate communications and supply delivery.

The county government is also in the final stages of having Tillamook Airport designated as the distribution point for supplies for the coast in an emergency event.

The plan should be approved next year and would see the county partner with the Port of Tillamook Bay and the Near Space Corporation to receive supplies at the airport and coordinate their distribution up and down the coast.

Another major improvement for emergent situations will come with the completion of Cape Meares Road in late 2023.

The road that used to connect the Cape Meares and Oceanside has been closed since 2013, following multiple landslides in the preceding years. Since the closure, both communities have been left without secondary Tsunami evacuation routes.

The new road will cut over Cape Meares and is expected to open in November of 2023.

The project will have a total cost around $21 million, with 90% of that is coming from the federal government, since the new route cuts through federal forest lands on the cape.

“I’m thrilled about that because it’s what provides emergency egress to those communities,” Bell said.

But in addition to these advances and accomplishments, the county also faced challenges in 2022 that are set to persist moving forward.

For the first time in three years, the county’s timber revenue fell in 2022, as prices settled after surging the previous two years and the amount harvested continued to decrease.

Around $19 million in funding from the timber harvest was generated for special districts across the county and

Page A3

the county government, which received around a quarter of those proceeds.

Next year promises to be a challenging one for the timber industry in the county as a habitat conservation plan (HCP) for protection of the spotted owl is set to come into effect.

The plan will curtail logging activities further in forests managed by the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) and could lead to a 20% fall in timber revenues for the county, according to Yamamoto.

“We’re going to start seeing the effects of reduced harvest even before the HCP gets implemented,” Yamamoto said.

He said that in the last weeks of December commissioners had learned that ODF will begin implementation of the plan in January, sooner than previously expected.

Yamamoto contended that the plan would not only prove deleterious to the county’s finances, but also fail to help the spotted owls.

He pointed to a recent Oregon State University study of federal forestlands that have already implemented logging restrictions like those about to come to state forests.

The study found that spotted owl populations had not recovered and that barred owls, which compete with spotted owls for food, were the real

cause of the spotted owls’ decline.

Regardless, the new restrictions are coming and will leave the county’s budget stretched even thinner.

“As timber revenue continues to go down it’s going to be a struggle,” Yamamoto said.

All three commissioners repeatedly returned to this point as 2022 drew to a close.

They said that while many residents are frustrated by the decline in the number of services offered by the county over the past decades, the vicissitudes of declining timber revenues had left prior commissioners and themselves with little other choice.

The commissioners’ options for increasing revenue are limited, as measure 5, in effect since 1990, has capped property tax increases at 3% annually.

With a lack of land to develop to increase the tax base, the only other option to supplement timber revenues is voter approved levies.

With the difficulty of passing such levies, commissioners have opted to trim budgets and services.

“We want people to know where their dollars are going,” Skaar said. “We want people to understand that it’s not that we’re bad stewards of their dollar, we just don’t have enough.”

The commissioners all remained upbeat despite the challenges faced and are being proactive in addressing them.

A major initiative coming in 2023 that all brought up was a comprehensive wage assessment they have ordered for the county.

The assessment will determine where county employees’ wages stand compared to those in their positions in similar counties in Oregon.

Commissioners will follow the study by assessing and updating the compensation of employees as needed to make them competitive with other counties.

“We have to figure out how to pay people what they deserve to be paid,” Bell said.

Other projects coming from the county government in 2023 include: beginning redevelopment work at the Cape Kiwanda parking area in Pacific City, the dredging of the Memaloose Boat Ramp, new short-term rental regulations stemming from the work of a citizens’ advisory committee, a new director for the Salmonberry Trail Foundation, a new strategic plan for the county’s libraries and a reconstitution of the Tillamook Bay Watershed Council.

2023 PROSPECTIVE

Nehalem city staff to focus on work to upgrade water system in 2023 Will Chappell Headlight Reporter Nehalem’s city staff focused on upgrading water services in the city in 2022 and will continue to do so in 2023.

The city’s elected officials are also set to finalize updates to several of the city’s development plans.

Public works completed installation of a roof over a raw water settling basin in 2022 and expects to put a roof over another basin by July.

The roofs will extend the lifespan of the reservoirs’ floating covers by

reducing the number of debris that fall on to them.

Engineering and design will also take place in 2023 for a raw water transmission main to carry water from Anderson creek to the water treatment plant.

Design for the project will cost $400,000 with funding is coming from the American Rescue Plan Act. City Manager Melissa ThompsonKiefer said the bidding process for engineering and design will begin in January.

Anderson Creek is Nehalem’s secondary water supply with Bob’s

Creek serving as the primary.

The new project will upgrade transmission capabilities from Anderson Creek and improve service in periods of peak demand in late summer and early fall.

Thompson-Kiefer said that she expects the project will be completed by June 2024.

The city government completed a water rate study in July of 2022 and began offering online bill payment options in August.

A new sidewalk will be installed by the elementary school on Eighth Street between B and C streets next

summer. The Oregon Department of Transportation’s small city allotment grant will pay for the $247,000 project.

Elected officials will also move forward with the final adoption of two updates to city plans.

A new transportation system plan (TSP) will come before the planning commission in January before going to the city council in February for final approval.

The new TSP has been in development in coordination with Manzanita and Wheeler and will address the three cities’ combined needs.

The planning commission has also been working on an update to the development code, which Thompson-Kiefer expects to be finished by June.

Thompson-Kiefer also said that the city’s government needs to start planning for construction of a new public works building.

The existing building has cracks in the structure and needs to be replaced by a new facility.

Please send any comments to headlightreporter@countrymedia. net.

Manzanita city leaders look to move major projects forward in 2023 Will Chappell Headlight Reporter Manzanita’s city government spent much of 2022 soliciting public feedback on various issues, chief among them the development of a new city hall, for which planning will proceed in 2023.

City staff also continued to work on achieving three goals set forth by city council to move the city forward.

Planning for the new city hall, progressed through a series of public meetings and studies of the proposed site that now houses a closed elementary school.

Late in 2022, geologic

and site studies revealed that the existing structures were largely not fit for repurposing and doing so would be extremely expensive.

City council will decide in January on a way for the designers to proceed, either by repurposing what materials they can or with a from-the-ground construction proposal.

This will allow the architects and contractor to create design proposals and cost estimates for the city council.

Armed with those designs and estimates, the city council will decide in the spring whether to proceed with the project.

City Manager Leila Aman said that construction could be ready to begin on the project by late 2023, pending council approval and funding allocation.

The council will also be hearing a presentation on a new transportation system plan (TSP) at the January meeting and deciding on its adoption.

The new TSP has been in development in coordination with Wheeler and Nehalem and will comprehensively address the cities’ transportation needs.

The city council will also be proceeding with work on a new comprehensive plan.

Aman hosted three town hall meetings in the second half of 2022 to solicit residents’ feedback for the new plan.

“It’s really going to help us establish a vision for the city and for growth,” Aman said of the plan which will address issues from public safety to growth to tourism.

The comprehensive plan update is one part of the three complimentary goals that city council laid out for Aman.

The plan update is an initiative the council dubbed “envision Manzanita” and is joined by “level up Manzanita” and “budget forward

Manzanita.”

“Level up Manzanita” is focused on updating the city’s government. It includes digitizing city processes and the new city hall project.

“Budget forward Manzanita” is concerned with diversifying the city’s revenue streams. Currently 65% of the city’s revenue comes from short-term rental licensing fees and Eco Northwest is consulting with the city on ways to diversify its income.

In 2022, Manzanita’s city council approved a property tax abatement for developers of workforce housing in the town and passed a tempo-

rary moratorium on net new short-term rental license issuance in the city in October.

A short-term rental advisory committee is examining the issue in the city and will bring recommendations forward in 2023.

Aman was excited about Manzanita’s prospects in 2023 and enthusiastic about both her staff and the new city council.

“I’m feeling really optimistic about the council that’s coming in to make the decisions to move Manzanita forward,” Aman said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We need to read more than text and posts Dear Editor, (from a contributor and long-time Tillamook cheesehead) The wonderful thing about America is that almost everybody knows how to read. The sad thing is that people don’t know what to read.

We sharpen our minds today by reading text messages, business signage and advertising, office memos, social media posts, magazines with lots of pictures. Hurray for us!

But we don’t read newspapers to stay up with local and regional news anymore.

That whole national pastime has been evaporating like dew on a hot summer day. And we don’t read books anymore either.

Remember the song that started, “Don’t know much about history . . .” That was a frank admission of our culture in the 1960s. Think it has gotten better? It has gotten much

worse. Some few men might read a little sports history or military history. Women maybe read a little history with romance or fantasy or families in it. But real comprehensive history, with real breadth and depth? Uh uh. Not a thing in America, and it shows, especially when we have no idea what or who to vote for when the time comes.

And how about the handwriting on the wall? Do we really know how to read where things are headed? Not a clue.

Not even interested.

PUD Smart HUB or not We called in an outage on the Dec 27 around noon time. We like to use the smart hub web site as not to bother the staff in the office. Did a status check around 3 pm and the case said power could be returned around 5pm. Did another status check. Power

could be turned on around 9pm. Did another case status check at 10 pm. Power might be turned on around 9 pm (no change). Checked the outage map. Red circle in Tillamook had same status as our case.

Then there was a large red message that indicated we could be without power overnight. Called into PUD 7am DEC 28. Had a discussion on the poor updates on SMART HUB. In a nutshell there are problems with updating the website. I asked for current status. “Power might be returned sometime around noon”. I went out and bought some ice. Got back by 8am filled up the cooler and you guess it the lights went on. A good ending.

I think some investigation needs to be done with regards to communication within the PUD organization. Along with how to improve updating the SMART HUB to make it SMARTER and ACCURATE. Jake Rzuczek Tillamook

All the nominees are honored at the annual Banquet, held next year at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds on January 28. The winner in each category is selected by a nomination committee composed of past winners and community members (not Chamber staff or board members. I have to reiterate that every year, so here is your annual reminder.)

This year we accepted nominations until Dec. 23, and then the nominees are notified by mail. Because those notifications went out last week we can announce the category nominees here for all to see!

ABOUT US

Highway 101 has showcased their commitment to Tillamook by undertaking a full remodel, hiring locally, and offering full benefits to their employees.

Rockaway Roastery: This brand-new coffee shop/wine bar brings a vibe to Rockaway Beach that has been missing, giving both locals and tourists a space to hang out, get something delicious to eat, and providing a space for live music, games, and speaking events. The remodel was extensive and done incredibly well!

Koch’s Drug Store Building: The Koch’s Drug Store property or what was most recently known as “the pet store” was turned in to another gorgeous storefront in downtown Tillamook and the new home to West Elliott Boutique. Taking arguably the most blighted of properties and turning it into a sparkling gem.

by providing a safe haven for those in need during emergencies, including weather events and large-scale disruptions to everyday living. The fairgrounds have also opened their doors for emergency services to practice drills and do hands-on training and education.

Tillamook Swiss Centennial: This event was spearheaded by the Tillamook Coast Visitors Association to celebrate and honor our Swiss heritage in Tillamook County. The day was jam packed with traditional Swiss activities, food, dancing, and displays and both brought together local partnerships, the community and even attracted people from out of the area.

TBCC Welding Program: The Welding Program at Tillamook Bay Community College helps build a skilled workforce and gives community members access to high-quality instruction.

Through this program, locals can level up their skills and gain access to high-paying jobs, and industries are able to hire locally. The welding program also partners with other organizations to help with projects, including fabricating the rendering of the K-Class blimp that now sits above Long Prairie Road and Hwy 101.

Thank to everyone who made a nomination, and congratulations to our nominees!

ous and acceptable as banning drugs and alcohol, to what might seem less acceptable or even objectionable, like banning pets, not allowing couples to remain together, or even prohibitions on parking a car on site. But whatever the barrier, they all have the same effect, someone needing shelter spends another night in their car, on the street, or in the forest. And with every night that passes, it becomes increasingly difficult to break the cycle of houselessness.

Why do so many shelters have barriers to entry? This has been the conventional wisdom for so many homelessness programs through the years, but does it make sense?

Well, if you take Maslow’s hierarchy of needs seriously, it does not.

Maslow’s hierarchy of needs argues that basic needs like shelter must be met before more complex needs can be addressed. There are five levels of needs in Maslow’s hierarchy, starting with physiological needs before progressing to, safety, belonging, esteem, and then finally, self-actualization. The basic needs of one level must be attained before the needs of the subsequent, and so on.

In essence, this theory of motivational psychology argues that before someone who is unsheltered can address something like drug or alcohol dependency, they must first have their more basic needs met,

like shelter, food and water, sleep, personal safety, secured belongings, and healthcare.

This is what the concept of no-barrier shelter is based on, and a no-barrier shelter is exactly what Tillamook County needs. No-barrier means that an individual is not required to have any prerequisites, or barriers, to entry. It means that anyone seeking shelter receives a meal, a bed, and a support network first. Then they can move into supportive services and paperwork after they are settled and feeling secure.

There are different shelter models that provide different benefits to the community, including low-barrier and high-barrier shelters. Tillamook County already has a high-barrier shelter and a low-barrier shelter that are making a positive impact in our community. In fact, our low-barrier shelter is run by the organization where I work, CARE, Inc. in Tillamook. But these models, absent a no-barrier shelter, deny the basic principles of human needs. Shelter is one of our most basic needs and it is no longer acceptable that in our community anyone should be denied this basic need. We have the means to provide a no-barrier shelter in Tillamook County. I hope that you will join me in supporting an effort to bring a no-barrier shelter to Tillamook County.

That had no sooner passed than… ’Twas the night after Christmas. I in my ‘kerchief’ and Pa in his cap had just settled our brains for a long winter’s nap—when the power went out! We reported the outage to Tillamook PUD at 9:10 p.m. We later heard that the Ollikainens’ younger son and his family had been on their way to Cape Meares for a belated Christmas when

Our plans for 2023 definitely include adding a few essentials. Fortunately we were well stocked with leftovers from Christmas dinner, and we have a single-burner butane stove which not only let us cook meals, but more important, let me brew coffee.

Candles we have in quantity: we bought a package of 100 tea lights a year or two ago and still have probably 80 of them left, even after illuminating the Tiny Beach Cottage during the long, cold night when we were without power.

It’s worth pointing out, though, that unattended candles are one of the largest

causes of house fires. Tea lights, in a small glass or saucer, are relatively safe because they’re wider than they are high, so they’re not as likely to tip over as a tall, decorative taper. Just keep an eye on them, and have something on hand to put out the fire if necessary.

Flashlights are another necessity. One of the most useful additions this year was a headlamp: an elastic

Our intrepid PUD crew restored power at 2:37 a.m.

But then...

At noon on Dec. 27, the power went out again! This time a huge spruce tree, 26” in diameter, had fallen across the entrance to Cape Meares (by the old alpaca farm), taking out the power line and completely blocking the road. Fortunately, there were no injuries or property damage. It turns out that we were but a small part of larger outages from Manzanita to Pacific City. PUD

crews got to our fallen tree late in the afternoon of Dec. 27 and opened one lane to get in/out of Cape Meares, but power wasn’t restored until 5 p.m. on Dec. 28. Knowing businesses, larger residential areas, the hospital, traffic signals and the like were out, we were just pleased to get power back as soon as we did. It beat Dec. 2007, when we were out of power for five days. A later column will address emergency preparedness lessons learned from this significant winter storm.

Kathy Burke contributed authentic English tea, straight from the British Isles; Carolyn Ollikainen brought chocolate from a recent trip to Victoria, B.C.; I added a few frosted Christmas cookies. What a special event to celebrate Diane’s visit!

band with an LED light on the forehead. Ours has two brightness settings and the lamp unit tilts up and down, making it a good choice for checking out the branches blown down in our yard.

Another favorite emergency light source: miniature keychain lights with a tiny LED bulb that’s very bright for the price (usually under $10). Be sure to get the kind that will let you click a switch to keep it lit. When the kids were little, I used to keep one of these keychain lights for each one of us, hung on lanyards normally kept where we hung the keys to the house and cars. The lanyard let us hang the lights around our necks, where they made a pool of light on the floor right in front of us.

As we lived in a house with

stairs, cats, and a curious pug dog (not to mention the occasional toy or pair of shoes), this was a real safety feature.

And because the lights we chose came in different colors, we had the added benefit of knowing who was coming down the hall by the color of their micro-light. They made every power outage a festive event for the kids, not a stressful one.

All this is fine if the power goes out for a few hours. But what about a longer outage?

While our home on N. 3rd was out of power for just short of 24 hours, neighbors at the north and south ends of Rockaway were out nearly twice that long. Our indoor temperatures dropped to 53 degrees F — chilly, but we had blankets and warm clothing for that. (My wife

said we must have looked like the grandparents in Willy Wonka, huddled under every blanket in the house.) But if this had happened on a subfreezing night, things could have been much worse.

Another concern: food spoilage due to refrigerators and freezers having no power. It’s less of an issue for a short outage in winter. A friend who lives in Hawaii lost everything in her refrigerator and freezer due to spoilage in the 80-degree weather there.

So we’ve been pricing generators and backup battery protection. It’s not cheap, but if it allows us to run our (electrically operated) pellet stove if the next storm coincides with freezing weather, or not have to chuck everything in the freezer and

fridge and buy it all again, it will be worth it.

Most important, though, is to keep in touch with the emergency management group here in Rockaway Beach. Based out of the fire department behind City Hall, the emergency management group gives training on all aspects of survival in the event of a lengthy emergency. They have classes on go-bag preparation, CPR, and other emergency knowledge.

And the group is planning an emergency preparedness fair for the spring, which I’ll share once details are set.

veloping a smartphone app that gives farmers real time advice on what chemicals to avoid when bees are in the field.

But we may not all want to get into formal beekeeping, but home gardeners can still provide food for the bees. How? Well, we can offer bee-friendly plants and water sources for our winged workers. Flowers are the best source for nectar pollen and native plants are the best to attract native bees. Monarda (bee balm) is one of the best plants, as is Echinacea (cone flower).

Goldenrod, Joe-Pye Weed (Eupatorium), common milkweed, and butterfly weed are good, too, but would be best in a wildflower meadow. Lavender, while not a native plant, is

and bumblebees seem to be drawn to blue Ceanothus (California lilac) which is a nice, native shrub for our coastal gardens as are the Cotoneasters. Planting more than one variety of Cotoneaster will provide more flowers over a longer period of bloom. The blue globe thistle (Echinops) is also an attractive plant for the garden and the pollinators.

As for herbs, if you can stand to let your basil, rosemary, culinary sage, and oregano flower instead of harvesting it, the bees will flock to the plants. You can always harvest the leaves after the flowers are gone and the bees move on.

Annual sunflowers and zinnias can be added to the list for bees and butterflies.

Plant these bright colored flowers among your vegetables so they can draw the bees to pollinate tomatoes and beans that have less-showy flowers.

Another bee tip for planning and planting your garden is to use several colors of flowers and plant them in clumps instead of individual plantings.

Including flowers of different shapes will attract a broader range of bees. Plant where bees will visit like sunny spots and where they can be sheltered from winds. If you plant a diverse group of flowers, they will bloom at different times during the season, allowing nectar and pollen for a wide variety of bees.

So with so many things to consider, January is the perfect time to start planning for our pollinators as well as our families. And don’t forget to visit www.savethebee. org, an organization based in Eugene, for more information on helping the bees.

We talked a little bit about the bees and butterflies in columns last year, but now is the time to plan to do something about them.

Claire Moody from the Tillamook Beekeepers Association has been contributing some excellent columns in the Headlight Herald this past year, so be sure to check those out.

Did you know that Oregon State University has a Honey Bee Lab? It conducts applied research on the health and nutrition of bees as well as provides best management practices to both commercial and hobbyist beekeepers.

According to the savethebee.org website, OSU is evaluating stress factors on honeybees when the crops are being pollinated. They are also checking on the longterm effects of pesticides on the bee colonies and what nutritional composition there are of pollens from crops as well as ornamental and native plants. This will be compiled into a data base for bee nutrition.

In just the last five years, OSU’s research has saved commercial bee keepers about $5 million by providing management advice.

Rudbeckia (black-eyed Susan) and lupines are great garden plants for bees, too. Honey bees

TRYING TO SEE

Meet your new emperor: No, not Ron DeSantis I

am making an exceptionally important announcement that shall be implemented immediately. Everybody, please listen up! (I only say “please” once.)

As of this moment, I am appointing myself Emperor of the Entire World. So that no more dissension will be permitted relating to election outcomes, voting will now be eliminated completely.

Also, no longer allowed are: pointlessly time-consuming texts, phone conversations (like posted letters, nobody calls anybody anymore anyway). And no negative social media comments about my self-anointment moments ago. However, many people already have told me, “So special, so very special.”

Benefits of your new silence will include fewer furious neighbors who refuse to acknowledge each other’s right to exist, and fewer mindless disputes that end in bloodshed (gunfire, stabbings, thrown lamps, extreme snubbing, etc.).

These improvements are “win-win” developments for me and, secondarily, for

all of you. After a while you will be grateful to me for my Solomon-like wisdom.

Starting right now, there will be no more national or local corporate media broadcasts that pretend to provide factual, unbiased news, but which in truth only belch unsubtle propaganda for specific political tribes (eg, FOX, MSNBC, etc.). Convenient for me in my new job is the fact that you tribal members long ago gave up thinking independently. My decree also eliminates all podcasts, and other forms of electronic, print and digital reporting as well. These are only pushed onto the public square by people who want to be on TV anyway.

My first decrees (and the many that will follow) represent no loss to society, except to those TV anchors with well-proportioned faces and nicely puffed hair who pretend sagacity (yes, it’s a word). Annoying factoid: most of us do not look like them anyway. Also, it will be a quieter world and many people will have the chance (and necessity) to think for

themselves instead of parroting what they just heard some idiot spout electronically. Full disclosure: I will be the only one who continues to spout.

I realize my lofty new position will sorely disappoint China’s Xi “Covid Cleaner” Jin Ping, Russia’s Vladimir “Little-Peter-Wannabe” Putin, “Shoeless Joe” Biden, “Donnie-the-TwiceImpeached-Victim” Trump and others who did not have their most important needs met when they were children.

Given that I am now in charge of everything, they will have to get over it, and without whimpering. I will be a firm but just ruler.

The Hoffman Center for the Arts 594 Laneda Avenue Manzanita, OR 97130

Since 2017, the Hoffman Center for the Arts has hosted an annual winter art exhibit featuring artists from Clatsop and Tillamook counties. The 2023 exhibit posted an open call for artists to reflect their interpretation of the theme “Scarlet” through their mediums.

The 7th annual community art exhibit runs January 7-29

during regular gallery hours, Friday-Sunday, 1-4 pm. There will be a reception, open to the entire community, on January 7 from 2-4 pm.

Work is available for purchase with 70% of the purchase price going to the artist and the remainder benefitting the not-for-profit Hoffman Center for the arts.

Our mission is to be “a

welcoming place for north Oregon coast residents and visitors to create, explore and enjoy arts and culture.” We offer year-round events and workshops in Clay, Gallery, Horticulture, Visual Arts, and Writing.

tiny bit of your patience (not a problem, for your attention spans are toddler-short). First, I will multi-task to bring to conclusion the wars in Yemen and Ethiopia, the current humanitarian catastrophe in Afghanistan, the political crisis in Myanmar, shouting and threats between the US, China and Russia regarding Ukraine, Taiwan and Iran’s development of nuclear weapons, Covid -19 and the climate emergency. Also, I will successfully address the deterioration of numerous nation states into tribal groups that are hating and killing each other (like here in the US with 615 mass shootings so far in 2022; you can look it up).

I count 18 African countries now involved with fighting Islamist extremists, none of whose fighters seem to have any sense of humor.

They even fight and torture members of each other’s sects in the name of Allah. (Is that like if the Episcopalians and Baptists started in on each other?) Also, I will deal with a preliminary list of about 75 different violent conflicts

taking place in the world right now: terrorist insurgencies, drug wars, ethnic violence and civil wars (some of them four and six-sided battles).

This list includes Putin’s attack on Ukraine. Because he has those stubby little hands, he has developed some serious needs.

We are still pitching drone strikes and commando raids wherever our deciders like.

But our citizens pay little attention to offshore stuff now that the military draft is gone.

Full transparency: from now on, I will be the decider about seal team raids and drone targets (If you happen to hear something humming and hovering above your neighborhood, don’t look up. Just remember my motto: “just but firm”).

Under my reign, you will have to discard your contempt for those neighbors whose political ideas you consider to be nuts. I am having a special facility built for those of you who insist on continuing to spew venom at strangers on social media (hoping to display your virtue while enlightening the rest of us),

name calling and whining at school board meetings, or trying to ban books that most of us want to read. Left winger or right winger, you will find your new abode less than comfortable.

Of course, here in the land of the free and the home of the brave we fight (hate, malign, shoot, stab, then deport) other people who look different and have arrived here recently seeking help.

Like so many other issues, Congress has decided not to solve this, so I have to settle the matter, and I will. It is sad that neither political party can have an idea that the other party will not immediately disparage and work against.

Umm, does that seem grownup to you?

Call me crazy, cuckoo and a megalomaniac, but call me Emperor (and remember that unit humming and hovering overhead). Just leave it all to me and there will be no more problems. I am watching everyone and everything all the time and, like my new mascot Elon Musk, I possess a bias toward carefully considered action.

State provides coastal communities new planning resources for seal level rise STAFF REPORT Climate change is causing sea levels around the world to rise, which is impacting Oregon’s coastlines and coastal communities, according to the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (ODLC).

As demonstrated by king tides, sea level rise will make existing erosion and flooding patterns worse in coastal regions and put pressure on already stressed ecosystems and freshwater resources. The Oregon Coastal Management Program (OCMP) has created tools to assist communities in planning for these impacts and continues to lead a community science effort documenting Oregon’s king tides.

The sea level rise adaptation planning toolkit is a set of three resources for local governments and communities to assess and address the impacts of sea level rise: Sea Level Rise Impact Explorer is an interactive, online planning tool that covers all of Oregon’s coast zone areas. The tool illustrates coastal areas that are likely to be impacted by sea level rise over the next 30-50 years. Inclusion of an area in the SLR planning area could mean permanent inundation or that the area will be impacted periodically by high tide flooding, storm surge, or erosion events.

Sea Level Rise Impact Assessment Tool is a digital workbook designed to help users inventory what activities take place within areas affected by sea level rise, assess vulnerability to harm, and prioritize further investigation into remedial and adaptative actions.

Completing the workbook serves as a jurisdiction’s or organization’s vulnerability assessment.

Sea Level Rise Planning Guide for Coastal Oregon is a document that provides a

suggested approach to evaluating the assets at risk from the impacts of sea level rise.

It offers potential adaptation strategies to adapt to those impacts within Oregon’s regulatory framework. The guide provides authoritative information about sea level rise projections and impacts.

It is intended to guide local planning, capital improvements, and development decisions on the Oregon Coast that support community resilience and ensure effective coastal management.

To help document the highest tides of the year, and contribute to the library of images that helps us envision a future with sea level rise, volunteers from every part of the Oregon coast are needed to take photos of this winter’s king tide events.

From Nov. 24 - 26, 2022; Dec. 22 - 24, 2022; and January 20 - 22, 2023, these high tide events will give communities a preview of the impacts of sea level rise along the Oregon coast. The thirteen years of data and photos gathered through the King Tides project have helped the OCMP create the sea level rise adaptation resources now available.

The Oregon King Tides program will host several events throughout the winter

season about how to participate in this community science effort and about current climate change research. The king tides website has information about how to become involved and submit photos.

Sea-level rise rates are slower in Oregon than other parts of the country, but Oregon’s coast, particularly the central coast, is experiencing sea level rise every year. The coming years will bring higher tides, and more inundation of coastal communities. OCMP staff are available to help interested communities apply the planning resources and create a plan for an adapted future.

Be Safe Whenever you are on the Oregon Coast it is imperative that you keep an eye on the ocean at all times. Never put yourself in danger. Be very cautious of rising water, eroding shorelines, flooded roadways, and high winds during any extreme high tide events.

Resources All three sea level rise adaptation resources are found on the Oregon Coastal Atlas website: www.coastalatlas. net/sealevelrise. This is an active area of continued research, and the OCMP will continue to update these resources as new data and

Insight into Oregon’s nonprofits: A look at the numbers DALLAS FRIDLEY Guest Article A not-for-profit corporation, commonly referred to as a “nonprofit,” is organized to achieve a purpose other than to generate a profit.

These entities qualify for federal tax-exempt status and must reinvest any surplus revenues into efforts that further the mission of the organization. They are prohibited from passing profits on to those who control the organization.

These organizations range from trade unions and religious groups to food banks and private schools. Many hospitals are also organized as nonprofit corporations.

For the purposes of this article, the impact of nonprofits presented is limited to employment and wages.

Oregon’s 2021 nonprofit stats: • 9,800 nonprofit establishments with employment and payroll • 185,900 nonprofit jobs • 41% of all nonprofits were in the other services industry • 63% of nonprofit employment was in health care and social assistance • $62,859 in average annual pay • $28.01 median hourly wage (third quarter 2021) • 10% of nonprofit jobs paid less than $15.00 per hour • Most nonprofit jobs – 73% – paid $20.00 or more per hour Keep in mind that not all nonprofit organizations are employers, and thus are not included in the employment and wage data presented here. Nonprofits in Oregon must register and be certified by the Secretary of State’s office, while the Department of Justice regulates charitable

activities.

The Secretary of State’s office provides a searchable database of active nonprofit corporations, available at this URL: • https://data.oregon.gov/ Business/Active-NonprofitCorporations/8kyv-b2kw • Likewise, the Department of Justice has a searchable database for Oregon charities, here: https://www.doj.state. or.us/charitable-activities/ How Many Nonprofit Employers Are There in Oregon?

In 2021, there were around 10,800 nonprofit business units that filed an employment report in Oregon. Most of these employers (91%) reported one or more jobs in 2021, but around 900 units missed that threshold. Nonprofit organizations played an integral role in Oregon’s economy. They made up 6% of all private businesses in the state and had 185,900 jobs, accounting for 12% of Oregon’s private-sector employment. As a share of Oregon’s total (private and public) employment, nonprofits made up 10% in 2021, about the same amount as the state’s manufacturing industry.

Nonprofits by Industry Health care and social assistance dominated Oregon’s nonprofit employment in 2021, representing 116,400 jobs or 63%. Other services included 22,000 nonprofit jobs and educational services employed 19,100. Together, the top three industries represented 85% of Oregon’s total nonprofit employment.

Nonprofit Hospitals: Health Care and Social Assistance Health care and social assistance led nonprofits with 116,400 jobs or 63% of Oregon’s nonprofit employment.

Like other services, there is diversity in the industry from

assisted living facilities to mental health services. However, hospitals completely overshadow the sector’s employment.

Oregon’s nonprofit hospitals (general medical and surgical; psychiatric and substance abuse; and specialty) included 75 reporting units in 2021 and employed 55,800, or 48% of the nonprofit health care and social assistance industry’s total employment.

Hospitals in Oregon (government and private) included 99 reporting units and provided 67,200 jobs in 2021, with nonprofit hospitals representing 83% of the employment.

Service Organizations Other services represented about 12% of the state’s nonprofit employment (22,000 jobs). The correlation between other services and nonprofits makes sense. It is the industry that includes religious, grant making, civic, professional, and similar organizations.

Places of worship, the Boys & Girls Club, The United Way, and local chambers of commerce are some of the most widely recognized nonprofits in Oregon, and there are a lot of these organizations across the state. Other services accounted for 41% of Oregon’s nonprofit organizations

(4,100).

Educational and Employment Training Providers Educational services accounted for 10% of Oregon’s nonprofit employment in 2021 with 19,100 jobs. The organizations in this industry range from preschools and tutoring services to colleges and employment training places.

Nonprofit elementary and secondary schools represented the biggest slice with 9,500 jobs (50%) and 333 reporting units (40%). Nonprofit colleges, universities, and professional schools accounted for 7,900 jobs (41%) while representing 21% of the nonprofit educational services provider reporting units.

Other schools and instruction, including sports training, provided 1,100 jobs (6%), and 20% of nonprofit educational services reporting units.

Pay at Nonprofits Follows Industry Standards Oregon’s private for-profit industries paid an average annual wage of $63,116 in 2021, compared with $62,859 for nonprofits. Although the average wage gap between for-profit and nonprofit employers was just $300 (0.4%) in 2021, their industry profiles were quite different.

In 2021, six industry sec-

tors reported higher annual average wages for nonprofits compared with for-profit businesses. Nonprofits in financial activities paid an average $89,340 in 2021, which exceeded for-profit pay by about $3,400 or 4%. Leisure and hospitality also favored nonprofits by $6,629 (+25%), despite having a relatively low annual average pay at $33,506.

Health care and social assistance, Oregon’s largest nonprofit industry, enjoyed a pay advantage of nearly $18,600 or 37% over forprofit employers, paying an average $69,325 in 2021.

Other services paid $37,364 in 2021, falling about $10,400 or 22% below for-profit employers. Educational services paid an average $46,531 in 2021, exceeding for-profit pay by about $4,700 or 11%.

Rural Versus Urban Oregon’s 23 nonmetro counties provided a home base for 1,700 nonprofit employer units in 2021 or 7% of all nonmetro private industry employer reporting units. Nonprofit organizations provided about 22,500 rural Oregon jobs, or 11% of all nonmetro private employment. Rural nonprofit pay averaged $53,919 in 2021, which exceeded the average for all private industries by 21%, around $9,400.

In Oregon’s metropolitan areas, nonprofits provided close to 163,400 jobs in 2021, or 12% of all metro private employment. With about 8,100 employer units, metros provided a home base for 83% of Oregon nonprofits, and nonprofits represented 6% of all metro private employer units. In 2021, nonprofit pay averaged $64,090 in metro Oregon, falling 2% (about $1,000) below the all

private industries average.

Only four rural counties provided more than 1% of Oregon’s nonprofit jobs in 2021.

Douglas County led rural Oregon with 3,500 nonprofit jobs, or 1.9% of Oregon’s total, followed by Klamath County (1.5%), Umatilla County (1.2%), and Wasco County (1.1%). Metropolitan areas commanded 88% of Oregon’s nonprofit employment led by Multnomah County’s 33% (about 60,300 jobs). Together with Washington County (10.7%) and Lane County (8.2%), Oregon’s top three metro counties represented 51% of all nonprofit jobs in 2021.

The Future of Nonprofit Employment The future of nonprofit employment in Oregon is directly linked to growth in health care and social assistance. The industry reached 267,400 jobs in 2021, an increase of about 31% or 64,400 since 2011, including the reclassification of more than 15,000 home care workers to health care and social assistance from state government in 2018.

With 63% of Oregon’s nonprofit employment in 2021, health care and social assistance will continue to lead its job growth. Health care and social assistance represented an even larger share of rural Oregon’s nonprofit employment and payroll. The industry provided 74% of rural Oregon’s 22,500 nonprofit jobs along with 84% of its $1.2 billion payroll.

Adventist Health Tillamook hosts Oregon legislators Twelve Oregon legislators, including those who serve on House/Senate health care committees, joined Adventist Health Tillamook President Eric Swanson and Patient Care Executive Heather Thompson, RN, on November 20, 2022, for a tour of the medical center, and a discussion about recent healthcare systematic changes coming out of the coronavirus pandemic. The purpose of the tour, facilitated by the Oregon Association of Hospitals and Health Systems, was for legislators to determine facts and priorities related to patient care challenges unique to hospitals serving rural Oregon.

ate need like staffing. We are also pushing against systemic challenges that long-term community needs for high-quality, dependable healthcare at risk,” shared Eric Swanson. He continues, “This tour was an important opportunity to discuss current issues openly and, at the same time, share my enthusiasm for what the future of healthcare in Tillamook County could look like with legislative support of rural Oregon communities like ours.”

The tour, which began in Astoria at Columbia Memorial Hospital and completed at the Adventist Health Tillamook campus, served to accurately detail the role rural hospitals play in commu-

nity health, including access to care, social services roles, community infrastructure and economic development.

The changes in hospital care from 2019 to 2022 present more challenging and complex care needs, including acuity, length of stay and discharge difficulties to postacute care.

Going in Reverse: AAA Study shows rise in dangerous driving behaviors STAFF REPORT Country Media, Inc. A new report from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety finds dangerous driving behaviors such as speeding, red-light running, drowsy driving, and driving impaired on cannabis or alcohol, rose from 2020 to 2021.

The most alarming increase was among drivers admitting to getting behind the wheel after drinking enough that they felt they were over the legal limit – an increase of nearly 24%.

This is a reversal in the steady declines in these dangerous driving behaviors in the three years from 2018 through 2020.

This survey is done every year by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. For more than a decade, the annual Traffic Safety Culture Index (TSCI) looks at driver behaviors and attitudes.

“The reversal in the frequency of U.S. drivers engaging in risky driving behavior is disturbing,” said Dr. David Yang, Executive Director of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. “We must be aware of the serious consequences of dangerous

driving behaviors and change course.”

“This study shows a big disconnect between driver attitudes and behaviors.

Drivers know behaviors such as speeding or driving impaired are dangerous and that their loved ones would disapprove. But many drivers still admit to engaging in risky behaviors in the past 30 days,” AAA Oregon/Idaho AAA public Affairs Director Marie Dodds said.

As in previous years, drivers reported too often engaging in risky behaviors that they know are dangerous and would meet with disapproval from friends or family. For example: Texting While Driving • 92% think it’s very or extremely dangerous • 96% think someone important to them would disapprove • 26% admitted to doing it in the last 30 days Aggressive driving • 88% think it’s very or extremely dangerous • 96% think someone important to them would disapprove

• 23% admitted to doing it in the last 30 days Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, traffic fatalities have risen. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimated that 42,915 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes last year, a 10.5% increase from the 38,824 fatalities in 2020.

According to NHTSA, dangerous driving behaviors such as speeding, alcohol impairment, and non-use of seatbelts account for a considerable proportion of the increased fatalities. Accordingly, AAA urges drivers to keep everyone safe on the roads and avoid dangerous driving habits.

In Oregon, 599 people died in crashes in 2021, according to data from the Oregon Crash Analysis & Reporting Unit, compared to 507 people in 2020. This is an increase of 18% and the largest number since 2003 when 512 people lost their lives in crashes. Find more information at the ODOT Crash Statistics & Reports website.

For 2022, the Oregon yearto-date fatalities as of November 28 are 512 compared to 543 for the same period

last year. This is a decrease of 5.7%.

AAA recommends these safe driving tips: Comply with speed limits.

Drivers tend to overestimate the time saved by speeding. You’d have to travel 100 miles to save roughly 5 minutes, moving at 80 mph instead of 75 mph. Speed kills and isn’t worth the cost.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Stow your smartphone away, turn it to airplane mode, or activate call/text blocking features such as Apple’s Do Not Disturb.

Only drive sober. If you

consume marijuana, alcohol, or use potentially impairing prescription medications, then don’t drive. And if you’re going to drive, then don’t consume these substances.

Stay alert. Stop driving if you become sleepy because you could fall asleep at any time. Fatigue impacts reaction time, judgment, and vision, causing people who are very tired to behave in similar ways to those who are drunk.

Buckle up on every ride. A properly worn seatbelt is the most effective way to survive a traffic crash.

fies attitudes and behaviors related to traffic safety. The survey data are from a sample of more than 2,657 licensed drivers ages 16 or older who completed the online survey and reported driving in the 30 days before the survey.

Data from the 2021 TSCI were collected between July 26 and August 30, 2021, using a probability-based sampling panel representative of the U.S. population.

The AAA Foundation issued its first TSCI in 2008, and the latest report is online at AAAFoundation.org

Cases of respiratory viruses – particularly influenza – continue to put strain on hospitals, so Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is reminding people to take steps that protect themselves and loved ones from infection as holiday weekends loom.

“No one wants to spend the holidays in the hospital with flu, RSV or COVID-19,” said Dean Sidelinger, M.D., M.S.Ed., health officer and state epidemiologist at OHA, and a pediatrician. “Using common-sense approaches for preventing these viruses can keep you safe, and that reduces demand for scarce hospital beds.”

Beau Gilmore, M.D., pediatrician and chief informaticist at Mosaic Medical in central Oregon, shares his thoughts on staying safe.

Gilmore also offers advice for parents on how to know when to go to the hospital.

While the percentage of positive RSV tests and resulting hospitalizations declined since peaking in early December, percent positivity and hospitalizations for influenza rapidly increased in the last several weeks. That, along with a rise in COVID-19 cases, pushed hospitalizations – including patients waiting in emergency departments because no bed is available – well above 300 per day and kept bed capacity at or near 100%.

Like RSV, influenza is particularly dangerous for children who have not gotten a flu shot this year, or who can’t yet receive the vaccine because they are younger than 6 months old.

Underscoring this point: OHA’s weekly Flu Bites surveillance report coming Friday will include two pediatric influenza deaths that occurred last week in Oregon.

“Sadly, influenza deaths in Oregon children do happen,” Sidelinger said. “It doesn’t have to be this way. While no vaccine is 100% effective, deaths of vaccinated children are exceptionally rare.”

People with children at high risk for severe disease – those younger than 5 or with underlying medical conditions – “need to take influenza seriously, especially if their child’s flu symptoms are getting worse,” Sidelinger said.

Antiviral medications, such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu), may be available to help reduce risk of severe disease in these children, although local shortages are being reported.

“The best way to protect children from influenza is to take steps to increase their chances of not getting the virus in the first place,” Sidelinger explained.
