Why are you running for Commissioner of Tillamook County? Since being elected, I am proud of my accomplishments yet find there is much more to be done. I am an unabashed advocate for our natural resource-based industries which provide so many fully benefited, family wage jobs…all while protecting the environment. Public safety is paramount and I have been able to bolster the Sheriff’s Office to the point we have reinstituted the Tillamook Narcotics Task Force and are preparing to institute 24/7 patrols.

framework for reopening Oregon: a plan Brown introduced on April 14 to restart public life and business while maintaining healthy Oregon communities. Oregon must first slow the growth of COVID-19, as well as acquire adequate personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect health care workers and first responders. Once that is done, Oregon can begin to reopen by ramping up COVID-19 testing capacity in every region of Oregon, developing a robust contact tracing system to track and contain cases, and establishing a quarantine and isolation program for new cases. Eric Swanson, president of Adventist Health Tillamook, said the hospital has a good supply of PPE and they are ready to begin reopening steps. The hospital has 25 beds normally but can expand to 50 beds. The hospital is ready to open back up for normal business.
Marlene Putman, administrator of Tillamook County Community Health Centers, said revised COVID-19 testing has expanded to provide for medical, frontline workers, and grocery workers. The new revised guidelines state to increase testing of these groups. “By expanding that testing, they’ll have a better idea of who really is impacted, even including some that are asymptomatic,” Putman said. The center is continuing to do testing and follow up investigation. The emergency preparedness coordinator is continuing to order and distribute PPE. Commissioner Bill Baertlein asked if restaurants will have to be inspected before opening back up or if that will happen on a normal basis. “We are still doing inspections for those restaurants that are providing take out,” Putman said.
Putman said there may still be things that need to be checked before reopening. Oregon State Rep. David Gomberg said Oregon is under increasing pressure to reopen but needs to do so cautiously. Chairman David Yamamoto said the county has been in contact with Lincoln, Clatsop and Columbia counties to coordinate together on reopening. Reopening on a slow and consistent basis will be a challenge. The state parks department said they are coordinating with cities where state parks are located and are considering a limited day use. Commissioner Bill Baertlein said the county will be trying to reopen for residents in the near future. Discussion in the teleconference was aimed at doing this in a slow and safe manner with the health and safety of residents a top priority.
COVID-19 cases stay at six Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@countrymedia.net
N
o new positive cases of COVID-19 have been reported in Tillamook County as of Monday, April 27. Cases in the county remain at six. In a County Leadership Team Teleconference on Monday, April 27, president of Adventist Health, Eric Swanson, said the hospital saw 18 vehicles Sunday, April 26, and one person was screened for COVID-19. Adventist Health received guidance from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) on Friday, April 24, for nonurgent procedures. Restrictions for visitors will remain in effect. “We’re seeing less and less people being screened,” Swanson said. Tillamook County Community Health Centers Administrator Marlen Putman said the center has seen a decrease in people being screened as well. According to data released by OHA on Friday, April 24, Oregon has prevented as many as 1,500 hospitalizations and 70,000 positive COVID-19 cases. “We’re monitoring, the hospital is monitoring, the state is monitoring daily and weekly to see what those numbers are looking like, including working with our dental providers,” Putman said. The center is looking at the American Dental Association for guidance with reopening. They will also look for additional guidance in the next two weeks for what restrictions will be loosened. “We’ll have some additional testing to do over this next week to address those populations that have been identified for expanded testing,” Putman said. Tillamook Family Counseling Center is continuing to provide telehealth services. They are anticipating forming some support groups. As of April 27, there have been 2,311 positive cases in Oregon, with 91 deaths and 48,964 people tested. There have been zero deaths in Tillamook County and 254 negative cases. According to the OHA, as of Friday, April 24, Oregon’s cumulative positive testing rate has remained consistent at about five percent tests performed. The national average is 18.4 percent. Oregon’s low test positivity rate reflects decreasing numbers of individuals with COVID-19 symptoms due to Gov. Kate Brown’s stay-at-home order and increasing testing statewide.
State eyes lifting order on non-urgent procedures Hilary Dorsey headlightreporter@countrymedia.net
G
ov. Kate Brown announced Thursday, April 23, that she will be lifting her order delaying non-urgent procedures for health care providers, as long as they can demonstrate they have met new requirements for COVID-19 safety and preparedness. Hospitals, surgical centers, medical offices, and dental offices that meet those requirements will be able to resume non-urgent procedures on May 1. In a press teleconference held April 23, Brown said Oregon is in a position where she can lift the executive order on non-urgent procedures. Brown had halted non-elective procedures that required person protective equipment (PPE) on March 23. People can now start to think about much-needed medical or dental work. Medical providers will need to demonstrate they have the ability to minimize the risk of coronavirus transmis-

I am a Lieutenant and Emergency Management Director. During manpower shortages I still assist in these areas. With many Management courses and my training, I am qualified to become Sheriff. What is the biggest issue you want to fix in the department? Manpower. The next few years will be a challenge because of the financial impact of COVID-19. If our manpower suffers in this, public safety will become a bigger issue. What are your goals for the Sheriff’s Dept. over the next 4 years? To strengthen staff relationships, foster professionalism, continue the successes the Sheriff’s Office has seen in drug intervention and mental health assistance. To provide a professional, well-trained force to assure the highest possible level of service to our county.

I have many goals and ideas, far more than I am able to list here. Some highlighted ideas would be my hope to reestablish the Reserve Program, the Tactical Team, the Traffic Enforcement position, and the Civil Deputy position. All of these once existed and were valuable tools but unfortunately are no longer a part of the Sheriff’s Office. Another is to strengthen the relationship with the public we serve through face to face contacts, press releases, social media posts, and town hall style meetings. I have always believed in positive, proactive policing and this will be another focus of mine.

Our heroes wear scrubs! Practicing medicine in a rural community is rewarding and challenging. In urban areas it is possible to specialize but rural providers must possess a broad range of medic,al knowledge and skills. Among other things, they must know how to treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries and when to seek specialty care for the best possible outcome. Our health care providers live, work, and play in our community. By providing care to anyone in need, they are a key part of our County’s health, safety, and wellness. We are lucky to have health care providers serving on the frontline during this pandemic.
Led by our medical director, Lisa Steffey, D.O., we have a talented team of providers who are committed to respond to the needs of our community. Dr. Steffey’s team includes: Melissa Paulissen, M.D., Patricia Dannen, PA-C, Dove Rainbow, PA-C and Chris Craft, FNP. Please join us in sharing appreciation for our health care providers who are tirelessly working to protect and care for the health of our community. Most heroes wear capes, but our heroes wear scrubs!

What is the biggest issue you want to fix in Tillamook County? I believe the greatest issue in front of us is finding a shared path through the changing face of Tillamook County’s population and economy.

What is the biggest issue you want to fix in Tillamook County? The biggest issue we face today is economic recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic.

What are your goals for Tillamook County over the next 4 years – what do you want to accomplish if elected? 1. Use my influence as a Commissioner to bring together diverse stakeholders to address complex county issues. The Housing Commission is a good model that could be applied to social issues such as addiction, environmental issues such as climate change, and economic issues such as workforce development. 2. Ensure that county services are offered in the most efficient and effective ways. The barriers are slightly different in each department, however, all need updated technology, strong partnerships between departments, and new funding sources. 3.Be a strong advocate for the county at the State and Federal levels to ensure we take advantage of opportunities from outside our borders, and protect our county from actions taken by others outside of our county.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR I endorse David Yamamoto I have spent my entire life as a Tillamook County Resident and during that time I have never endorsed a candidate for public office. In this unprecedented turbulent time, under conditions not seen in over 100 years, I find the need to express my support for the re-election of Commissioner David Yamamoto. With my retirement at the end of this year, Tillamook County will desperately need a commissioner with experience to help guide it through the challenging times ahead. Commissioner Yamamoto has that experience and has shown great leadership in keeping the County Citizens safe during this pandemic. Life, health, and safety has been his mantra during his time as a commissioner. He is liaison to the courts, Sheriff, Juvenile and has taken a leadership role in getting the Tillamook Narcotics Team back in operation. He has supported my efforts to get a
mental health court started in Tillamook County. I have also appreciated his efforts to get in front of the housing crisis. As A Certified Public Accountant, I have been impressed by his grasp of the financial position of the County and his efforts to control spending. When Commissioner Josi retired we lost a great leader and spokesman for our timber interests. Commissioner Yamamoto has stepped into that role and has done an exceptional job of representing our interests at a state level. His work with the Tillamook Working Lands and Water Cooperative showing local, state and federal leaders from across the state and nation how Tillamook does farming and timber right has put our community on the map for balancing the environment with our industries. As one who has worked with Commissioner Yamamoto and his opponent I can unequivocally state that Commissioner Yamamoto leads his opponent in experience, competence and disposition necessary to continue to serve
with the Board of County Commissioners. Bill Baertlein Tillamook Commissioner
Commissioners need to enforce the stay at home orders With every opportunity to get in front of a microphone the Board of County Commissioners wastes no time expressing that safety of County residents is their #1 priority. Recent reports from local residents and the County Sheriff’s office indicate that there remains a significant number of non-residents traveling to Tillamook County for recreation. Even if you set aside the State facility closures, the Governor’s Stay at Home order and the County Commissioners closures and stay at home order, why is it that the Board has not taken decisive action to eliminate this threat of spreading the virus to County residents?

just be spaced out more to allow each vendor enough space to keep them safe. New signs welcoming you to the Market and reminding you to utilize the hand sanitizer and hand washing stations, maintain social distancing with other customers and vendors, and only touch what you’re going to buy. SNAP customers will still be able to spend those dollars on food, and receive a match for fruits, vegetables, herbs, mushrooms and nuts via the Double Up Food Bucks program. You won’t find live music, kids games and activities, or tables and chairs to hang out with friends at. This isn’t the time to be hanging out, lingering, or meeting up with friends. We all want to be there again someday (maybe even before the season end) but in order to do that we have to make some sacrifices now in the interim. My hope is that the community will continue to come out and support these farmers and small business owners who rely on the Market to help sustain their businesses.

hese are unprecedented times. Each one of us is impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Restaurants have shifted to take-out and delivery, our K-12 educators are teaching online, many in our community are suffering hardship. These are uncharted waters. However, as is always the case, Tillamook County residents rise up in support of one another to ensure the safety and well-being of our community and to take care of those who need additional help during this time. It has been humbling to engage in and witness all this. Your community college is expanding to meet your needs as well. We are running spring term classes all online; we know it is important to help students continue to progress toward a degree or certificate. We are providing 180 high school students with free college courses this term to help them and the local school districts ensure our juniors and seniors have the support they need to stay on track for graduation. We have added more short-term skill building certificates and online community and continuing education courses to support those

We know traditionally our Market attracts a lot of outof-town visitors who won’t be able to patronize our vendors this year, so we need our local community to be intentional about buying their produce, berries, bread, and other goodies from our vendors. Now is the time to shop small and shop local as often as possible to ensure that all of our businesses – including farmers market vendors – make it to the other side of this pandemic. It is these small businesses that make our community vibrant, fun, and full of soul and losing them would be devastating. So many of them give back to the community in abundance year after year and now it’s our turn to give back to them. So shop small, shop local, and come June shop the Tillamook Farmers Market. If you’re interested in being a vendor this year, you can find a link to the application at tillamookchamber.org. Our season opens June 13, and we are still accepting new vendors up until the season starts.

et’s share some good news: The Tillamook Farmers Market is returning in 2020, with a new opening date of June 13. Per Gov. Brown’s Executive Order, farmers markets are considered an “essential business.” Why? Because they offer communities the opportunity to purchase fresh, locally-grown foods that they wouldn’t have access to otherwise and support farmers who are making a living by feeding their communities. Sounds pretty essential to me. However, it won’t be the Market that you’ve come to expect from us the last two years. And that’s OK. We are all making adaptation to normal life, and the Market will be no different. Here is what you can expect to find at the Market this year: Many of your favorite vendors selling produce, plant starts, craft, baked goods, hand-made soaps and lotions, flowers and more. They will

n Letters Continued from Page 4 With the various orders in place and an obvious public safety emergency, why is it that the Board of County Commissioners has not directed the Sheriff’s Office to pursue citations to individuals that continually, habitually, violate the standing orders? Would it not be the best deterrent to send these people home with an invitation to send the County $10,000? This would certainly get their attention and the story of actual enforcement would likely spread faster than the virus itself. Wouldn’t this be an actual deterrent that would actually help keep County residents safe? If a resident habitually drives their car or truck faster than the Sheriff’s office can allow by traffic law, does the Sheriff’s Office stop them
n TBCC Continued from Page 4 TBCC students work fulltime (or more than full-time with multiple jobs), have families to raise and support, and struggle to make ends meet each month even before the pandemic struck. Earlier this year, TBCC students participated in a national survey conducted by the Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice called #RealCollege. The survey was taken by approximately 30% of TBCC students. Results showed that 53% of the respondents experienced food insecurity in the prior 30 days. This is defined as the limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe food, or the ability to acquire such food in a socially acceptable manner. Sixty percent of respondents experienced housing insecurity in the previous year. This includes a broad set of challenges such as the inabil-

and politely ask them to slow down? Or do they write citations providing the offender the opportunity to visit with a traffic Judge to determine appropriate penalties? Are the County Commissioners going to equate the need for polished finger nails, fresh cut hair, surfing and mountain biking to taking the life of unknown innocent bystanders? Of course, the other option is to openly admit that, in point of fact, resident safety is simply one of the priorities on the same list as re-election. County Boards across the state need look no farther than the very data that they receive on a daily basis to see what happens when the Covid-19 virus is allowed to spread unchecked. It’s time for Government at all levels to grow a spine and make actual hard choices. Lucy Brewer Tillamook, Oregon ity to pay rent or utilities, or the need to move frequently. Finally, 27% of respondents experienced homelessness in the previous year. This means that a person does not have a stable place to live. For all three of these categories, results for TBCC students were significantly higher than the rates of all survey respondents at two-year colleges nationwide. It was painful to learn. TBCC is working incredibly hard to support our students and our community. We appreciate and value everyone who continues to contribute to scholarships and emergency funds to support students during these uncertain times. We are working diligently to understand student need and develop ways to get resources in their hands. And we will continue to listen to the needs of the community and adapt to meet new and evolving ways to deliver educational opportunities. We are in this together and we are here for you.
The following is a letter to the Tillamook County Commissioners As a short-term rental owner I would like to advocate for some sort of grant/return out of the TLT fees and taxes I have dutifully collected over the years. I understand that both the City of Seaside and the City of Manzanita have managed to do this. Having worked for nonprofits in our community for 40+ years at low wages and no benefits, this income from my rental is the bulk of my retirement income. (I also have a long-term rental that I rent very affordably at undermarket rates to “make up for” the rates I can charge shortterm vacationers.) You can imagine that the COVID 19 virus situation has hit me hard and I am leaking money. I have had to refund over $8,000 so far, starting with folks afraid to travel even before the County’s ban. There are more cancellations to come even if the ban gets lifted for the end of May (which I am not optimistic about). The situation for the summer months hardly bears thinking about!

Erin Skaar for County Commissioner
I have been happy to collect these TLT taxes, especially when they support local infrastructure and facilities that serve us all. And I have just paid this year’s $250 licensing fee. However, at this time it seems a priority should be keeping us small owners afloat. Assuming the current grant requests are similar to last year, most, though worthy, seem like “icing on the cake” in the current pandemic situation. (As a side note I have always had questions about the amount of TLT funds that go to presumably non-local advertising firms to lure more people to come to Tillamook County, threatening the quality of the natural areas we have the privilege of sharing.) It probably isn’t feasible to target funds to owners like myself who live here and depend on this income as opposed to folks for whom this is an investment or a way of paying for their beach house. But I pray that some reasonable solution can be found that recognizes us as small business owners who are vital to the local tourist economy and are greatly impacted by this pandemic. Thank you,
In my opinion Erin Skaar is a perfect fit for Tillamook County Position #1. She has shown proven leadership in in the matters and concerns of many local citizens. By my observation in several meetings with Erin in leadership roles she
intently listens to all voices. If she needs additional clarification of any input she will seek clarity of the issue brought forward. With Director Leadership demonstrated, she is intent in finding situational assistance.

Under the framework, medical providers must also demonstrate that they have an adequate amount of PPE available for health care workers, following CDC guidance for the extended use or reuse of PPE. Hospitals must continue to report PPE supply levels daily to the Oregon Health

Authority. Hospitals must also demonstrate adequate COVID-19 testing capacity when needed, including the ability to screen patients before non-urgent procedures, and follow strict infection control protocols. Dr. Dana Hargunani of the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) said COVID-19 hospitalizations have been flat. One of the aggressive measures to cancel elective procedures was necessary, but prolonged procedures come at a cost to Oregonians. Hospitals must minimize transmission of the virus, to maintain adequate hospital bed capacity, to reduce financial impacts, and more. “Health care facilities must start slowly,” Hargunani said. “They must maintain hospital bed capacity at or above 20 percent in order to accommodate for the potential increase in hospitalizations ahead.” Criteria will be reassessed biweekly. Hargunani said the
state will continue to monitor and update as needed. The framework is a balanced and safe way to get health care workers back to work. The OHA asks that facilities postpone procedures that require critical resources. “This is one small step towards reopening our state and its only possible because of all the work we’ve done together to contain COVID-19,” Hargunani said. Someone who called in to the teleconference addressed that some people feel the announcement has come too soon. Brown said Oregonians on the frontlines have conserved PPE and companies big and small are making PPE. Hargunani said the increase of PPE has been critical and adequate PPE is in place for health care workers. On the question of testing, Hargunani said OHA has been targeting people most at risk of contracting COVID-19. OHA
has expanded guidelines to include those who are asymptomatic. Dr. Bruce Goldberg of the Governor’s Medical Advisory Panel said as testing capacity grows, more people will be able to be tested. “We need to have a robust public health system in place that can continue to do surveillance testing amongst our population,” Brown said. “It’s a little different than our flu surveillance network because it will have to be more rapid acting and more extensive but essentially it’s the same concept.” Brown said it is critically important for Oregonians to get access to medical and dental care. Hargunani said procedures that will be allowed are elective or non-urgent such as joint procedures, biopsies, etc. Those types of procedures include those that need to be scheduled ahead. Other types of health care have been maintained.

I would also like to partner with the District Attorney’s Office and the County Sheriff’s office to continue the effort to crack down on drug dealers and trafficking.

Barbara Brown, who owns the nursery (located just north of Brooten Road off of U.S. Highway 101), is open her regular hours with social distancing measures in place. She tells me that three quarters of what she’s selling this season are edibles. “Do you remember the idea of a Victory Garden?” she asked. I do. Victory gardens were planted during both World Wars, when food was rationed, to improve folks’ selfsufficiency and to boost morale. According to Barbara, many locals are growing Victory Gardens in response to Covid 19. Often, according to Barbara, three generations are in on the act- with grandparents showing grandchildren how to garden. If this appeals, but you lack deer

Arla is also growing strawberries from bare root in a vertical, stacking planter called “Mr. Stacky.” The Klobases are eating chard that is coming up on its own, rhubarb and chives, plus they always have mint. They also have a tree that has produced limes. My husband, Pete, is the gardener in our family and has planted kale, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, chives, onions, carrots, and potatoes, with basil yet to come.

Maggie kept her grooming appointment that morning at South Paws Groom Shop (also open with safety measures in place). I wandered the downtown Cloverdale neighborhood as I waited, spotting a new business in town. “Curious- Plants and Treasures” has a window full of plants for sale, and promises other delights. I had a nice chat with the owner, Linda, who is employed with Nestucca Valley Schools. She tells me that her little shop will open for business when Covid-19 restrictions are lifted. The enterprise is housed in the quirky purple house (where Illene Mazura lived) directly across from Rusty Cow Antiques on U.S. Highway 101 in Cloverdale. Bear Creek Artichokes has joined other local eateries in offering a takeout menu. They’re located in Hemlock (3 plus miles north of Beaver on U.S. Highway 101).

In closing I would like to leave you with another recipe from my Mother’s 1943 cook book titled “Recipes for Today” by General Foods Corporation. Because it was during World War II and they were rationing meat, the chapter was called “S-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g Meat” The recipe is for hamburger pinwheels as follows: Saute ½ c minced onion in 2 tbs of fat in covered sauce pan for 5 minutes; Add only 2 tbs of sauteed onion to ¾ lb of ground beef; Add 1
tsp salt, dash of pepper, 1/3 c fine bread crumbs, 1/3 c milk; Mix well and set aside; Mix Bisquick dough to directions and add remaining cooked minced onions to dough; Roll dough into a 12X9 inch rectangle; Spread hamburger mixture and roll lengthwise as a jelly roll; Seal edges and cut into 12 slices; Place cut side up on greased baking sheet; Bake in hot oven (450 degrees) for 15-20 minutes, or until done; Serve hot with marinara or green pea sauce. ( My note: I always cook the hamburger before I add any other ingredients to it and bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until done).

continue each week until I get them all. My good friend Scott made it easy for me. I am just going to type his entire story. It is really good! Here it is. “I’ve worked at home exclusively since 2001 (and between 20% and 75% since 1994). My biggest tip: Establish “office hours,” whatever works for you, and when “office hours” are over, turn off the lights off and walk away. This is very important to make it seem like you’re not “at work” 24/7. Similarly, if possible given the layout of your home or space, try to assign one specific area of it to your office. (The IRS will encourage you to do this anyway, come tax time.) It seems cool at first to hook
up the laptop on your kitchen counter or the side porch, but people are hugely associative, often without realizing it. This means that the Adirondack chair on your porch where you like to sit with a cup of coffee in the morning, listening to the birds and admiring your neighbor’s magnolia tree, is better left as the kind of respite and getaway you want. If you start working there, you’ll begin to associate that spot with work and its challenges and frustrations, instead of centering and renewing yourself there.” I, Sugar, am having fun on the Zoom app on my smart phone jamming on my ukulele with other players. It is not the same as socializing with my friends with lots of hugging, but
it is working during this quarantine. When given lemons, make lemonade, right? My friend Anne, from Rockaway Beach has been inspired on pinterest. She is making little Cornish Cottages using beach finds, leftover wood and wire. She says they are quite time consuming, but hey, that’s good during the quarantine. I have a feeling you will be able to purchase one at the Little Crow, when things reopen. We will see. “Sometimes, life will kick you around, but sooner or later, you realize you’re not just a survivor.

What are your goals for Tillamook County over the next 4 years – what do you want to accomplish if elected? While we reopen our local community, adjusting to the “new normal” in our daily lives, we need to integrate tourism into our economy in a way that not only coexists with the traditional natural resources fields of farming, timber, and fishing, but actually benefits all of us. As we do this, we need to
improve our preparation for other types of disasters and emergencies, actually realize additional housing for our workforce, and constantly keep improving. To do this, we need to improve our communication with residents, and better involve them with opportunities in the process. Too many areas in Tillamook County have neither cell nor adequate Internet services, and we need to bring government to the people, not just expect the people to come to us. If my fellow commissioners don’t want to regularly interact with the public throughout the county, then I’ll do it alone, and publicly inform people how we can meet up. More info: VoteMcCall.org

I am continually humbled and encouraged by our community’s generosity.” United Way Treasurer, Erin Skaar, said, “This year was especially challenging as our non-profits are struggling to support the community’s increased needs during the COVID 19 pandemic. Because of this, the United Way board voted to release funds early to non-profits.”

The 2020 Almanac and the 2020 Discovery, published by the Headlight Herald and Country Media, are out. Be sure to pick them up and read about Bay City. The article about Bay City has a nice announcement about the Pearl and Oyster Music Festival, and gives a short, but well done, history of Tillamook County’s first pioneer settler, Joe Champion, and Kilchis Point. It also highlights the historical Methodist Church building, the Bay City Art Center, and more. My favorite part of the article is the opening. In part it reads “Bay City, which commands a gorgeous view of Tillamook Bay”; and it does. The secret is out; this is the best spot on the Oregon coast.

A friend gave me a wooden heart that reads “In my Father’s house there are many mansions, and I hope yours is next to mine “. Heaven to me would be like that, only I don’t care about having a mansion; please give me a small white cottage. I just finished an ebook titled “Shamed” by Linda Castillo that I borrowed online from the Tillamook County Library. My favorite pastimes are reading and cooking, although Kin said he didn’t know that cooking was my favorite pastime. It is, if it can be made fast, with no cleanup. It would be fair to say I love reading, visiting with friends, and going out to dinner.
