Planning Commission reviews vacation rental standards

By RYAN HOOVER Country Media, Inc.

The City of Coos Bay Planning Commission reviewed the city’s standards for vacation rentals during their April 11 meeting, discussing in depth the requirement that vacation rentals must have sprinklers.

The decision to review vacation rental standards came after Commission Member Jim Berg commented at the March 14 meeting that he had heard concerns over the city’s sprinkler requirement.

Coos Bay Planning Administrator Chelsea Schnabel presented an overview of the vacation rental standards at Tuesday night’s meeting.

Definitions and special standards Chapter 17.370 of the Coos Bay Development Code defines a vacation rental as “a residential structure being rented for

compensation for less than 30 days without concurrent occupation by the owner/ operator.”

Vacation rentals differ only slightly from homestays, which are residential structures being rented for compensation for less than 30 days, but the owner must also reside in another dwelling on the same property.

Both vacation rentals and homestays are permitted in all residential zone districts, although special standards apply. The city has limited the number of vacation rentals and homestays allowed in city limits to no more than 75, which makes up about 1% of the city’s current housing stock. Other requirements include a carbon monoxide and smoke detector in every room, a hardsurfaced parking space for each bedroom in the home, and a contact person who lives within

One killed, Mitts sworn in as NB police chief one injured

in North Bend fire

For The World

A new police chief was sworn in Thursday to lead the North Bend Police Department, but the move will continue the changes started by outgoing Chief Gary McCullough.

Cal Mitts took the oath of office, bringing more than 26 years of law enforcement experience to the job, including the last 18 months where he served as captain in the department.

McCullough and Mitts were named the leaders of the North Bend Police Department 18 months ago after the former chief and captain resigned due to a conflict with City Administrator David Milliron.

At the time, there was a lot of dissent in the city and concern in the police department, but Milliron said McCullough and Mitts agreeing to come to North Bend changed everything.

Both men came out of retirement after serving decades

By DAVID RUPKALVIS For The World

One man died and a woman was critically injured in a house fire in North Bend last week that likely started due to a cigarette burning inside a home.

North Bend Fire Chief Jim Brown said his department was called to a home on Virginia Avenue at around 12:30 p.m. Tuesday.

“We were there within two minutes,” Brown said. “There was light smoke showing from around the building. When we arrived, one of the residents was outside on the porch. She was struggling to breathe. She said there was someone still in Photo by David Rupkalvis/For The World the house.”

Pink Floyd tribute band Pigs on the Wing comes performing in Coos Bay

By BREE LAUGHLIN The World

A Pink Floyd tribute band is coming to the Egyptian Theatre this Friday.

Pigs on the Wing is a Portland-based tribute band that captures the qualities that make Pink Floyd so iconic. They have also been referred to as “the most punk rock of the Pink Floyd tributes.”

That is a badge the band wears with pride.

Pigs on the Wing’s 2023 tour will showcase a full performance of the 1973 classic The Dark Side of the Moon in honor of the 50th anniversary of that album’s release.

discretionary authority and what the building official classifies it as.”

According to Linder, residential building codes do not require sprinklers, which is why homestays do not have the requirement.

Commercial building codes do have the sprinkler requirement.

Because vacation rentals are considered a commercial use, they fall under the commercial building codes.

“What it boils down to is we have a residential code and a commercial code,” Linder added. “Both of those codes deem it the responsibility of the building official to assign the use to the occupancy.”

To explain her reasoning behind classifying vacation rentals as a commercial use, Linder said understanding transient occupancy is key.

“One of the key factors when I made this decision on requiring sprinklers in vacation rentals has to do with transient occupancy and permanent occupancy,” Linder said. “In transient occupancy, people are not familiar with their surroundings.

Transient really kicks it to commercial use, which requires sprinklers.”

Two Coos Bay

residents provided public comment on the vacation rental standards, supporting Linder’s decision to require sprinklers in vacation rentals.

“You building official is on the ball. The rest of the state may be a little behind,” Jim Burns stated. “The Oregon Restaurant and Lodging Association wants a level playing field. A level playing field is sprinkler commercial applications.”

Emily Gardner praised Linder for creating a policy that works to prevent fire emergencies.

“Amy created a policy. It’s a policy that’s erring on the side of extreme caution,” Gardner said. “Policies are usually not created by the state unless something happens.

And usually, it’s something bad. She’s pre-empted that.”

No changes were made to any of the city’s vacation rental standards. All commission members agreed that they did not want to put anyone’s life in danger, but just wanted to further examine the sprinkler requirement.

15 minutes of the home, to name a few.

Of all the commercial or industrial zone districts, vacation rentals – considered a commercial use – are only fully allowed in the Commercial/MixedUse and Waterfront Industrial Districts.

Homestays – considered a residential use – are only fully allowed in the Commercial/MixedUse and Industrial Commercial Districts.

All special standards in the Coos Bay Development Code fall under land-use regulations that the Planning Commission recommends and City Council implements.

The current special standards were first adopted by City Council in 2022.

Building codes, on the other hand, are implemented by the building official.

According to the Coos Bay building codes, all vacation rentals must have fire sprinklers, Planning Administrator Chelsea Schnabel told the Planning Commission. This does not include homestays.

“I just want to highlight that the city’s requirement that vacation rentals have fire sprinklers is not a

Commission members probe fire sprinkler requirement Commission Member Jim Berg started the discussion by reiterating the complaint he received about the sprinkler requirement.

“The complaint that I got was the seemingly onerous requirement for the sprinkler system,” Berg stated. “It’s almost impossible to get someone to come and do it in a house that you’re never more than 10 feet from the front door.”

Another commission member asked whether there was any flexibility in the building code regarding the sprinkler systems. Amy Linder, Coos Bay’s Building Official who oversees all building codes for the city, responded by explaining the complex nature of the state’s building codes.

“This is a case where this is not a consistent application throughout the state,” Linder responded. “There are some jurisdictions who are going this way, including Coos County.

Milliron then turned to McCullough and addressed the longtime law-enforcement veteran.

“We are eternally grateful for you and the sacrifice your wife has made,” Milliron said.

“What you’ve accomplished in 18 months is amazing. You’ve made the North Bend Police Department proud.

You’ve got police officers involved in the community. You have built a team we can all be proud of.”

Milliron finally turned to Mitts.

“We always recognized it’s never one person,” Milliron said. “I always recognized just as much accolades as we give Chief McCullough and the officers, we give them to you, too.

You have a department you’re inheriting that you will be able to put your legacy on.”

Coos County District Attorney R. Paul Frasier also spoke about the two officers, saying he was relieved when he heard McCullough and Mitts were named to lead North Bend.

“My first reaction was ‘Thank God,’” Frasier said. “I’m grateful that Gary and Cal stepped up and came to this department. I’ve worked with them a long time.”

Frasier said he has worked with Mitts for decades and is confident he will do an amazing job as police chief.

“He is a wonderful individual and is committed to the city of North Bend as police chief,” Frasier said. “I look forward to working with him. I’m grateful these two men stood up and came to this department. It has shown.”

Coos Bay City Manager Rodger Craddock also recognized McCullough and Mitts.

Long before he was city manager, Craddock joined the Coos Bay Police Department at the

same time as Mitts and McCullough. Craddock served as police chief in Coos Bay, picking McCullough as his replacement and Mitts as a captain.

“As I reflect on the year where you both became sergeants, both became captains, I don’t regret a single day,” Craddock said before turning to Mitts. “I think you will be a great police chief. The training you have, the things you have done, I believe you will make a great police chief.”

As he retired for the second time in two years, McCullough said working in North Bend was worth delaying his retirement plans.

“It’s been an honor and a privilege to work with the men and women in the police department and the men and women in the city,” McCullough said. “From the very first day we started it was obvious we had the support and trust from all the men and women from every department in the city.”

McCullough then turned to Mitts, a man he has worked with for decades, in good times and bad.

“Mr. Mitts, I can’t say enough about you,” McCullough said. “You and I have worked side by side for 26 years. I can honestly say there’s not a better person who can take over the mantle of the police department.”

Milliron than asked Lori McCullough to join her husband, saying Lori

sacrificed a lot to let her husband serve one more time. Lori said she had no choice because the city they live in needed him.

“When Gary was asked to do this, I know that was the only choice for the North Bend Police Department, and I supported it wholeheartedly,” she said.

“The department is far better for having the two of them.”

After he was sworn in as the new chief, Mitts finally got a chance to speak. He talked about the men and women who have guided his career, his father, former Chief Eura Washburn and McCullough.

“All of them taught me what being a good human, being a good officer and being a good leader is like,” Mitts said before turning to McCullough. “For the last 27 years, I’ve worked with you every day, Today is our last day working together.

All of the great leaders I associated with believed in making a difference. I have made it my mission to make a difference no matter what my job is.”

As North Bend’s police chief, Mitts said his goal is to make the department better every day.

“I will continue to push and raise the bar higher,” he said. “I will serve with integrity and never do anything to cause the department embarrassment. I will leave the department better than I found it.”

Historic woodland garden tours being held near Reedsport

By BREE LAUGHLIN The World

The public can view a woodland garden boasting hundreds of rhododendrons, camellias, and azaleas – some more than a century old, just outside Reedsport this Spring.

Officials from the Bureau of Land Management and the Friends of Hinsdale Garden invite visitors to enjoy hundreds of blooming flowers in the historic garden on Saturday, April 29 and May 13. A previous tour was held April 15.

“The garden was very artfully planned and was designed in layers,” said Megan Harper, with

the Bureau of Land Management.

“There are tall Spruce Trees and Douglas Firs. There is a layer of really tall rhododendrons and camellias and there are layers of azaleas.”

Harper said the original property owners, the Hinsdale family, planned it so the plants would bloom sequentially throughout the spring – and were very passionate and organized about it. The Bureau of Land Management acquired the property in the early 1990s, at the same time as the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area.

Harper said the BLM didn’t know quite how special the property was, until they started

doing some digging into its’ history, along with local community members, now the Friends of Hinsdale Garden, and the American Rhododendron Society.

“This is a unique and special place,” Harper said. “This is a woodland garden. It was created in a style that was meant to seem like you are walking through the woods and seeing all these plants and flowers along the way, and it feels a little bit wild.”

Visitors will ride shuttles to the garden from the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area and check-in to get a ride at the Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area pavilion.

“We are excited to have visitors back at the garden after a three-year break,” said Matt Bailey, Umpqua Field Office Manager. “Walking through the garden surrounded by 30-foottall rhododendrons is a special experience.”

There is no cost to view the gardens. They are open to any age and ability. A small bus will shuttle people to and from the garden from the Elk viewing pavilion every 10 to 15 minutes between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 29 and May 13.

The Dean Creek Elk Viewing Area pavilion is located at 48819 OR-38, Reedsport, OR 97467.

Obituaries (continued from page A5) Blake Edward Wehrlie Blake Edward Wehrlie, 75, died April 11, 2023 in Bandon after a long battle with dementia.

He was born in El Cerrito, California to Melvin and Janet Wehrlie and attended parochial school at St. Jerome Catholic School through junior high. He then attended El Cerrito High School, where he met many lifelong friends.

Blake served four years in the United States Air Force as a flight mechanic, and met his wife, Janis while he was stationed at Norton Air Force Base in San Bernardino, California. Following his service, they returned to the Bay Area, where he earned a Bachelor’s Degree and teaching certificate from San Francisco State University.

Blake and Jan moved to Coos Bay in 1975, and they homesteaded in Sumner.

Blake taught school at North Bay Elementary and Coquille High School, where he led

Randi Lynn Gulseth

the wood shop and drafting programs. He continued his love of woodworking throughout his life, and was a skilled cabinet maker. He put his talents to use at the Port of Coos Bay, where much of his handiwork on docks, walkways and structures is still enjoyed by visitors. He was an avid outdoorsman, hunter, fisherman and devoted years to re-foresting the family property, planting hundreds of Douglas fir trees by hand.

Blake was a devoted and hilarious grandfather, cat lover and jokester. His multitude of sayings continue to be uttered by family and friends, in homage to his impish nature.

Blake is survived by his wife of fifty-three years, Janis; his daughters, Rachael Rossman and Amy Hansen; grandchildren, Evan Hansen, Reagan Hansen, Ian Rossman and Harper Rossman; and his sons-in-law, Alton Rossman

July 4, 1956 – April 7, 2023

and Anthony Hansen. He is also survived by his sister, Pamela York and brother, Neil Wehrlie. He is preceded in death by his father; his mother; and sister, Lynne Wehrlie after their own battles with dementia.

A small private ceremony will be held at a later date.

Remembrances can be made in Blake’s name to the Alzheimer’s Association.

A celebration of life for Randi Lynn Gulseth, 66, of Coos Bay, was held Friday, April 14 at the Coos Bay Chapel.

Randi was born July 4, 1956 in New Jersey to Robert and Shirley Lorraine (Huff) Lippincott. She passed away April 7, 2023 at her residence in Coos Bay. Randi loved music, and shared that love with all of those around her.

Gulseth; children, Amanda Beth George, Nancy Renee Harmon, Peter Andre Camreta, Ryan Gulseth, Jaina Gulseth and Casey Gulseth; 12 grandchildren; 2 sisters; 1 brother; bucketloads of nieces and nephews and children and their spouses; and all of whose lives were touched by

There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision.

attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off.

Commonly known as: 1866 16TH ST, NORTH BEND, OR 97459-2630 The undersigned hereby certifies that based upon business records there are no known written assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary and no appointments of a successor trustee have been made, except as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described real property is situated. Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7).

There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: Not applicable due to loan maturity TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $26,295.41 PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT REINSTATEMENT WILL NOT BE AN OPTION AT THIS TIME, AS THE ENTIRE BALANCE OF THE DEBT IS OWED AND DUE.

It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The loan has matured and all balances due under the terms of the promissory note dated 12/27/2006 have not been paid, including the balance

of principal and interest, along with late charges, foreclosure fees and costs, any legal fees, and/or advances that have become due.

Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale. Other than as shown of record, neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any person having or claiming to have any lien upon or interest in the real property hereinabove described subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed, or of any successor in interest to grantor or of any lessee or other person in possession of or occupying the property, except: Name and Last Known Address and Nature of Right, Lien or Interest JOHANNA CURELO 1866 16TH ST NORTH BEND, OR 97459-2630 Original Borrower JOEL CURELO 1866 16TH ST NORTH BEND, OR 97459-2630 Original Borrower For Sale Information Call: 916-9390772 or Login to: www. nationwideposting.com In construing this notice, the singular includes the plural, the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to this grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any.

Guest Column Budget Committee Announces Public Meetings on 2023-24 Proposed Budgets The City of Coos Bay staff have been busy preparing the 2023-24 proposed budgets which include the City and Urban Renewal Agency (URA).

The proposals will be presented to the Budget Committee on Thursday, May 4, 2023, starting at 6 p.m. This is a public meeting and will also be streamed live on the City’s YouTube Channel. Remote attendance is available via Zoom and can be accessed through the agenda for each meeting, found on the City’s website on the Agendas and Minutes page.

The City and URA adopted budgets are a financial plan prepared for one fiscal year (July 1-June 30). The budgets are one of the most important and informative documents city officials and the public will use. Both entities are required to adhere to the state’s local budget law which is a group of statutes that require the preparation and adoption an annual budget that follows a very specific process. As such, the adopted budgets are a legal document that establishes the authorization to receive and spend money. It presents the anticipated resources (revenue) available to pay for the estimated requirements (expense) necessary to provide services to the community.

In actuality, the budget is a cycle which takes 12 months to complete. The budgeting process is composed of four phases: Preparation, Approval, Adoption, and Execution.

Preparation Phase Preparation of the budget is the first phase of the cycle and allows for a review of needs considering the funds available. As Oregon municipalities, both the City and URA must plan for a balanced budget, meaning that resources and requirements are equal. As designated by the City’s Charter, the Budget Officer for the City is the City Manager. The Budget Officer for the URA is the Assistant City Manager. The Budget Officers, along with the Finance Director and other Department Directors, develop the proposed budgets.

Approval Phase The next phase of the budget cycle is the approval phase, which is performed in a public meeting environment. Oregon

Budget Law requires each government to have a budget committee that is comprised (in part) of citizens. The Budget Committee is tasked with reviewing the budget, as proposed by the Budget Officer, and to monitor the process to ensure adherence to State Law. The Budget Committees (City and URA) will hold a public meeting, as mentioned above, on May 4, 2023, in which the budget message will be delivered and the budget will be presented, and to listen to comments and questions regarding the proposed budget from interested citizens.

Ultimately, the Budget Committee members who serve alongside the City Council and URA Board will approve the City and URA budgets for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. When approving the budgets, the Budget Committees must also approve the property tax rate and amounts.

Some people just like to get things done

By JOHN CLAYTON Writers on the Range

Although I’ve lived in a small Western town for 30 years now, I have never known much about one of its fundamental institutions, the service club. Many small-town residents still center their lives on Lions, Elks, Rotary or similar organizations.

Not me: I’m not a joiner.

Yet as our national culture moves farther away from such settings for broad discussions, I worry that I’m part of the problem.

A while ago when I was asked to speak at our local Rotary Club, I hesitated, picturing white guys networking with each Adoption Phase other and complaining After the Budget about newcomers. But I Committees have approved had published a book, and the budget, the approved publishers instruct authors to budgets are then forwarded market wherever you can. to the City Council and URA Upon arrival, I cataloged Board for adoption.

Rehabilitative work to 10 steel bridges on the Coos Bay Rail Line concludes In 2019, the Oregon International Port of Coos Bay received a grant of $20 million through the BUILD program from the federal government and matching funds of $5 million from the state of Oregon to complete a comprehensive rehabilitation program for 15 steel bridges along the Coos Bay Rail Line, with the vision of strengthening the line to meet future increased volume along the line.

The first phase of the project has been completed with the full replacement of the Coalbank Slough Bridge.

This is the last bridge on the line approaching the Terminal One property, a 167-acre site that was formerly a Georgia

Pacific Mill purchased by the Port in 2022 for redevelopment as a multi-user marine terminal.

Work has recently been completed by Scott Partney Construction on 10 additional steel bridges in the Wild Cat Creek area. Work included tie replacement on the bridges and certain approaches, complete replacement of a section of rail on one of the bridges improving wing walls to aid in ballast retention, replacing rivets with high strength bolds, stringer replacement, and web stiffeners.

In total, the project cost approximately $1.88 million and took just over a year to complete.

Legacy Construction has

initiated the third phase of the project, which will include repairs to all three of the swing span bridges on the line in North Bend, Reedsport, and Cushman. The final phase of this project will include significant repairs to the Vaughn Viaduct bridge on the north end of the line, which nearly ever rail car must pass over.

In the coming months, the Port will also be kicking off a comprehensive tie and ballast replacement project throughout the line. This work will be funded by a $10 million grant through the Port Infrastructure and Development program, with the goal of increasing overall train speeds on the line.

founder Gifford Pinchot. The two men are often seen as enemies: Muir’s preservation philosophy dictated a handsoff policy to nature, while Pinchot advocated aggressive management of natural resources to provide for human needs.

So when Muir and Pinchot camped together in 1896, alongside Montana’s Lake McDonald in what would later become Glacier National Park, did they argue about whether to cut trees or dam valleys? No. They set aside their ideological differences to focus on a bigger threat.

The then-new idea of public lands — national parks, national forests, and other lands held collectively and managed with public involvement by our democratic government — was controversial. While disagreeing about the priorities for those lands, Muir and Pinchot were united in believing that public lands mattered.

The Rotarians I met immediately connected with this message. That’s what lively small town folk do: Set aside differences to get things done.

By contrast, in metropolitan areas, I’ve found that people resist the message about collaborating on common goals, especially when I suggest it could work today. Surely the 1890s were different, they say.

Ideologies were different, or personalities were different, or the stakes were not as high.

To me, the difference is that today we cluster in like-minded neighborhoods.

Our stores, restaurants and media are all ideologically segregated. We wrap our identity in ideology. And we forget how to find common ground.

I say “we” because I do it, too. My attempted justification is the one I mentioned: I’m not a joiner.

But John Muir wasn’t

John Clayton a joiner either. The individualistic mountaineer wasn’t even an official member of the blueribbon commission visiting Montana’s Lake McDonald.

He just decided to tag along so that he could converse with — and listen to — people who disagreed with him.

In the dramatic results of those conversations, Muir’s essays and interviews of 1896 and 1897 merged his ideas with Pinchot’s to help persuade citizens of the value of public lands.

If we still think of today’s Rotarians as old-fashioned, maybe it’s because they attract members of all stripes who embrace idealistic values about helping people help themselves. I learned, for example, that they work to end the scourge of polio internationally while providing scholarships to high school kids. And they don’t have a political test for pitching in.

They just pick their causes, and then they fight for them.

John Clayton is a contributor to Writers on the Range, writersontherange. org, an independent nonprofit that promotes lively dialog about the West.

He lives in Montana and is the author of several books including Natural Rivals: John Muir, Gifford Pinchot, and the Creation of America’s Public Lands.
