Coos County Ballot Snapshot

Here’s what local races and measures you’ll be voting on May 19

BY NATE SCHWARTZ

The May primary elections for this midterm year are fast approaching, with voting day set for May 19. April 28 is the last day to register to vote or change your party affiliation, and you can check your registration status now at oregonvotes.gov/myvote.

While the primaries for the general election are party-restricted, and those races for Con-

gress, Senate, and Governor are set to be decided in November, there are several local positions up for grabs on this ballot. Two County Commission seats, the county clerk, and two measures for North Bend will be voted on.

While low voter turnout and general malaise can often color voting day in the U.S., it is local elections that make the most immediate impact on our day-to-day lives. It is paramount

that we all participate in our constitutional right to a representative government in an informed manner, especially in the races closest to home.

Coos County Commissioner, Position 2

County Commissioners serve a four-year term in Coos County.

Coming off the most recent of his three terms in the position,

John Sweet is running for reelection against first-time candidate Brandi Martindale.

Long-time residents of Coos County will know Commissioner Sweet well. His background is in forestry and business administration, having earned his bachelor’s in both fields from Oregon State University. Sweet has spoken extensively about the county’s financial difficulties and believes his experience is the

answer to the difficult funding challenges faced by the area’s sheriffs and schools.

Martindale has been hitting the campaign trail hard in recent months. Born and raised in Coos County and a Coquille High School grad, Martindale is currently a certified life coach in the area. She received her bachelor’s See SNAPSHOT Continued on Page 16

Development begins on the first phase of

North Bend’s new community plaza

­ ­ ­

BY NATE SCHWARTZ

If you’ve driven southbound on Highway 101 through North Bend in the last week or two,

you’ll have noticed construction in the area around the North Bend Visitors Center. The development is a continuation of the City’s mission to turn Grant

Circle into a community hub and town square.

The T-Mobile Plaza will convert an otherwise unutilized piece of pavement into a public space with a stage, seating, and a designated spot for community art and heritage displays. Thanks to a $50,000 Hometown Grant from T-Mobile, and a further $250,000 from Travel Oregon and the Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development, what has been a long-term vision of the City’s has broken ground.

“What was once a blighted, underutilized building and empty lot is now moving into the next phase of development as an accessible community gathering space. This project has been a long-term goal of the City Council and represents years of planning to enhance our community,” said North Bend’s Visitor Information Center. “Once complete, the site will be an accessi-

Architects, and its first phase will be built by Knife River, a local contractor. The project is project-

ble space for visitors and locals alike. The development will also serve as a hub for Main Street and City activities.”

The space was designed by a local architecture firm, HGE

Port Update: Eastside Housing Feasibility and Local PCIP Meetings

BY NATE SCHWARTZ

The Port of Coos Bay heard a presentation from AKS Engineering regarding their progress on a housing feasibility survey for a large piece of land in Eastside, Coos Bay. In conjunction with the City of Coos Bay, the port is exploring the possibility of housing to help alleviate the area’s need to expand its housing stock. Evaluations of the same property in 1996 and 2000 came back negatively on development, but there is hope that with up-to-date building techniques and ecological changes, the outlook may be more fruitful this go around.

Zack Pelz, AKS’ representative, spoke about their most recent findings, stating that a final draft will be ready soon.

According to Pelz, around 70% of the site is wetlands, which are typically avoided in developments like this, posing significant infrastructure challenges for most construction projects.

As part of its preliminary economic analysis, AKS determined what the market was able to

support in terms of housing costs for the constructed units. Around $346,000 to $598,000 for homes, and $1,320 to $2,100 per month for apartments, was the market rate used to justify whether the costs of development would be worth it in terms of return on investment. As he hinted at with the issue of large amounts of wetlands, the investment in infrastructure would need to be significant.

Analyzing a small, 17-lot development on the edge of where the current housing stock ends showed promise. Analyzing costs for street, storm and wastewater, and other miscellaneous infrastructure expenses, the development would cost under $4 million. That puts the per-unit cost within the $346,000-$598,000 range necessary to make the project feasible.

However, that does not consider off-site infrastructure costs like expanding nearby intersections and bridges to accommodate increased traffic. At a recent town hall held in Eastside, a strong turnout of around 80

residents made it clear that traffic was the primary concern regarding a development like this. In particular, the Isthmus Slough Bridge was a point of worry.

Pelz reminded the board that there were still numbers that needed to be considered in the final report and further development areas within the site that they wanted to add and explore, as the first 17 plots were just a preliminary analysis. Another town hall will be taking place on Wednesday, 25, at 6 PM, at Eastside Elementary, where those more fleshed out numbers will be presented.

When the report is completed, planned for sometime in midApril, it will be presented to the Coos Bay City Council in a joint meeting.

Local Meetings on the Pacific Coast Intermodal Port Project (PCIP) The Concerned Citizens of Empire, a group of locals with well-documented ques-

tions about the PCIP project, is holding a meeting at the Dolphin Playhouse on Wednesday, March 25, at 6 PM (unfortunately, the same time as the Eastside Housing Feasibility Town Hall). The

meeting will discuss the potential impacts of a large industrial development across the channel See PORT UPDATE Continued on Page 16

HOLY COW! HISTORY: The Woman Who Crashed D-Day

not only the biggest story of the year but one of the biggest of the entire war. She would simply switch to Plan B. All she had to do now was come up with Plan B. The daughter of a prominent doctor in St. Louis, Gellhorn was fascinated by world events from an early age. She dropped out of Bryn Mawr College to become a journalist. Writing first for The New Republic, she eventually landed her dream job as a foreign correspondent for United Press in Paris. It turned into a nightmare when a male co-worker

the country with a New Deal government agency and lost it when a bit of social activism went too far.

And that was when Ernest Hemingway entered her life.

It was a star-crossed romance from the start. They went to Spain together and, in between writing news stories and ducking fascist bullets during that country’s civil war, they fell in love.

It was an on-again, off-again relationship for four years until they decided to tie the knot in 1940. It was her first marriage, but Hemingway’s third (of four).

And although both Hemingways covered World War II, “Papa,” as he was nicknamed, increasingly resented Gellhorn’s long absences. “Are you a war correspondent or my wife?” he demanded in 1943 as she left their Cuban estate to follow the fighting in Italy.

The breaking point came in the spring of 1944. Husband and wife were in England, though separately, each reporting on mounting tension in the buildup to the anticipated invasion. Hemingway had tried to stop her from reaching Britain. When Gellhorn got there (after a nerve-racking journey through U-boat-infested waters), she told him their marriage was over.

Then came Ike’s edict: No women reporters allowed to cover the Allied landings in France.

A marriage that had just failed,

a potentially career-ending dead end. A lot of people would have given up. Not Martha Gellhorn.

Ike or no Ike, she was going to Normandy.

She was fully aware of the consequences. Being caught disobeying a general’s orders could have landed her in Leavenworth for a long time. And that was the least of it: A civilian caught without permission inside Army ranks would be liable to face espionage charges.

Gellhorn didn’t care. The story was too big.

She drove to southern England, persuaded American MPs that she was a nurse who had missed her ride back to the base, and bluffed her way onto a hospital ship.

Once onboard, she hid inside a bathroom, hoping against hope she wouldn’t be discovered.

Her ruse worked. She made it.

Two days later, Gellhorn was in a party that went ashore near Omaha Beach. She worked alongside medics recovering wounded GIs and ferrying them back across the English Channel. Once in port, she jumped ship and wrote what she had seen as the only woman journalist to land at Normandy on June 6.

The military was furious. She was briefly arrested and stripped of her war correspondent credentials. When the brass cooled down, she returned to the front

J. Mark Powell line in Italy and was among the first journalists to report on the horrors of the Dachau concentration camp when it was liberated.

“I followed the war wherever I could reach it,” she said later.

Gellhorn and Hemingway divorced in 1945. She married again, raised an adopted son, and covered almost every major conflict in the world over the next 40 years. She was 81 when she reported on the U.S. invasion of Panama in 1990.

A U.S. postage stamp was issued in her honor in 2008, and the prestigious Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism continues to perpetuate her remarkable legacy today.

Oregon gas tax opponents

TUESDAY, MARCH 24, 2026 | 5

THE WORLD

file another lawsuit in federal court MIA MALDONADO Oregon Capital Chronicle

Fast Fact Filing comes less than a week after a Marion County judge ruled the gas tax question will remain on May ballot.

Opponents of gas tax hikes are once again suing the state of Oregon over a law that rescheduled the date of a gas tax referendum from November to May. The Right to Vote on the Gas Tax Political Action Committee — organized by Sen. Bruce Starr, R-Dundee; Rep. Ed Diehl, R-Scio, and the Taxpayer Association of founder Jason Williams — filed a new lawsuit Tuesday in the U.S. District Court of Oregon in Portland one week after a Marion County judge denied their original claims, ruling that the gas tax vote would remain on the May ballot.

The lawsuit alleges Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read violated the First and 14th amendments of the U.S. Constitution, as well as the Americans with Disability Act because it didn’t provide Oregonians with enough time to collect the 500 signatures needed to get an argument into the Oregon Voters’ Pamphlet before the March 12 deadline if they can’t pay the alternative $1,200 fee.

“Oregonians were told they have a voice, then the state put a $1,200 price tag on it,” Diehl said in a statement. “That’s not democracy.

That’s a pay-to-play system designed to shut out ordinary citizens.”

Four people and an unspecified number of unidentified people who intended to file arguments but missed the March 12 deadline are also listed as plaintiffs.

“We will continue to follow the law as it is set out by the Constitution, the legislature and the courts,” Read said in a statement. “We hope this issue will be resolved quickly because there are rapidly approaching deadlines for elections officials to produce the voters’ pamphlet in a timely manner.”

The lawsuit stems from when Oregon Democrats on March 2 secured enough votes to pass a law rescheduling the date Oregon voters can approve or reject parts of a controversial 2025 transportation law that would raise the gas tax by six cents, double the payroll tax used for public transit and increase title and registration fees.

No Republican in either chamber supported the bill.

Just one Democratic senator and five House Democrats voted against it. Gov. Tina Kotek signed the bill into law immediately.

Lawmakers blew past a Feb. 25 suggested deadline Read gave them to pass the law to allow time for Oregonians to collect signatures. The lawsuit says Read admitted that lawmakers compressed the timeline for Oregonians to include their arguments in the voter pamphlet after missing the deadline.

“Senate Bill 1599A collapsed the existing statutory framework meant to provide robust public processes related to explanatory and fiscal statements, racial impact

statements, and avenues for citizens to engage in pure political speech,” the lawsuit reads.

The plaintiff’s claims are similar to those made

by Mary Martin, a disabled senior living in Klamath Falls who filed a lawsuit in federal court and argued that

the state violated federal disability rights by requiring she quickly submit 500 signatures or pay the $1,200. The judge in that case ordered Read to let her submit her argument against the measure without a fee or gathering signatures.

Tuesday’s lawsuit is at least the fourth lawsuit filed

After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place.

The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement.

The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave

before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing.

You will receive notice of the court hearing.

THE WORLD

PHOTO COURTESY OF MARY SCHAMEHORN

As I See It It’s hard to believe that one could have such a beautiful garden only blocks from the ocean, but Buck Rogers (first photo) spent his retirement years cultivating this garden in a plot between Ninth and Eighth street alongside his beautiful home. This photo was taken in July of 1992 after Buck had retired from his business, Buck’s Sentry Market, and joined his wife, Nadya, in community activities ...and passionate activism.

Today, that area is home to the Bandon Community Garden, which again is proof that you can grow almost anything in Bandon if you are prepared to give it the love and attention it needs.

If you think that the prospect of a Road Diet (narrowing the lanes through Bandon) generated some controversy in the community, you should have been around in July 1992 when a huge group of locals, including businessmen Martin Hauser and Al Layne, (second photo) gathered in front of city hall and inside at the city council meeting where the Parkway was discussed. Unlike the anti Road Diet people, who pretty much just signed their name to a petition, wrote letters, or testified at a council meeting, the Parkway people had plenty of swag, and most wore No Parkway shirts and buttons, while carrying No Parkway signs. They meant business!

The Parkway would have impacted turn lanes in the area of Elmira and Fillmore and Highway 101, and eventually, the idea was scrapped by the city council, just as the Road Diet was.

The third photo, taken in July 1986, is a telephoto shot of Old Town Mall, owned by Bob and Caroline McKemy, which later became the Wheelhouse and Crow’s Nest. You can see Moore Mill in the background, and the sign for the Chicago Eatery, which is what it was known as in those days. Inside the mall were various small businesses.

*

* * I learned this week that HB 4188 had passed, essentially changing public meeting laws in Oregon.

To someone like me, who serves on two public boards (the council and the hospital board), this was an important step in the right direction as it had become difficult (or downright illegal) for board members deciding through email on a date to meet ... without violating the public meeting law.

“This measure loosens the current ban on ‘serial communications’, which prevents members of a public body from deliberating in private by communicating asynchronously. HB 1477 says communications related to procedural matters, communications that share the views of outside parties, communications with the media, constituents, or the public, and communications from gathering information related to a deliberation or decision are exempt from the serial communications rules,” according to the Oregonian. This is long overdue!

Of course, we still cannot deliberate toward a decision in a serial email, but a lot of issues don’t fall into that category, and the legislature finally agreed they should be allowed. *

* * Ocean Crest Elementary School parents and guardians have been advised that the school has received a new visitor/volunteer management digital system thanks to the generous donation from the Bandon Dunes Charitable Foundation.

“We are excited to implement this system as part of our continued commitment to maintaining a safe and secure learning environment for all students and staff,” said the district.

“Beginning immediately, all parents, guardians and volunteers will be required to bring a valid state-issued photo ID (driver’s license, state ID card, passport or passport card) to the office when visiting the school.

Your ID will be scanned

By Mary Schamehorn into our system for instant screening. The system checks visitors against U.S. sex offender registrations, criminal databases, government watch lists and allows us to maintain customized in-house denied visitor lists.

“With the new system in place, parents and volunteers will no longer need to complete and submit background forms. Please note that a valid photo ID must be presented each time you plan to attend classroom holiday or birthday parties, volunteer in the classroom (with teacher permission), chaperone or attend field trips, or be present in the classroom during the instructional day.

“We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement this new safety measure. Thank you for your continuous partnership in keeping Ocean Crest a safe and welcoming place for students.” *

* * In last week’s column, I mentioned the academic achievements of the Bandon High School boys basketball team, which finished second academically among all 2A boys basketball teams. But I did not have a complete list of the coaches, who include head coach Vince Quattrocchi, his assistant Ken Nice and the JV coach Braden Fugate. Again, congratulations on the academic accomplishments.

If you are professional, a team player, honest, reliable, dependable and flexible, please pick up an application at the front desk. Experience desired, but not necessary. Positive team player attitude is a must! We offer a competitive wage and benefits.

* * Eddie Sanders, a Bandon man who owns a mechanic shop on Fillmore Avenue and has been cited in municipal court on numerous occasions for feeding the seagulls, has once again made the news.

In court Monday, Mary Wilson, co-owner of the adjacent care center, and her employee Cola Bryant, appeared before Judge Gary Milliman, seeking restitution from Sanders for damage done to the roof of the building and the vehicle paint job of Bryant. Sanders did not appear.

In an emotional plea to the judge, Wilson outlined the damage done to her building and the feces that are tracked inside on the wheels of clients’ wheelchairs. “This has got to stop,” said Wilson, urging the judge to grant the restitution they sought. During the trial, Wilson pointed out that Sanders had stopped feeding the birds for several weeks, and they had left the area. But he had begun feeding them again, and

Chuck helped to guide the company from that humble beginning to its position as a major regional grocery firm with 34 stores at its greatest extent. By the time he retired McKay’s had stores throughout western Oregon and Northern California.

Chuck was an avid hunter, fisherman, and hiker throughout his life, and enjoyed encouraging and teaching his family to enjoy the outdoors. He also enjoyed gardening, maintaining a large vegetable garden, and building a solar-heated greenhouse as an addition on to the family home. He converted the fields around his home into rhododendron production, and sold the plants through the McKay’s chain of stores. If you purchased a rhododendron from a McKay’s grocery store in the 1970’s, 80’s, or 90’s, Chuck grew it.

Chuck was preceded in death by his son Thomas Ruth. He is survived by his wife, Patty Ruth, of Coos Bay, daughter Barbara (Ruth) Young and her

Chuck was born on December 30, 1930, in Martinez, CA as the only child of Ralph C. Ruth and Mabel S. (Kernutt) Ruth.

The family moved to Eugene, OR when Chuck was five years old. He graduated from University High School in Eugene in 1948, and later served for two years in the United States Army as a cryptographer, stationed in Frankfurt, Germany.

Chuck began his career in the grocery business as a boxboy in Eugene at age 15. He began working for McKay’s Markets in 1959, and worked for the firm until his retirement in 1989. McKay’s had only two stores in 1959, and

Nancy Wilson

December 17, 1930 – March 16, 2026 A memorial service for Nancy Wilson, 95, of Coos Bay, will be held at 1pm, Thursday, March 26 at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church, 1290 Thompson Road in Coos Bay with Pastor Dan Heath, officiating. Private inurnment will be held at Sunset Memorial Park in Coos Bay. Nancy was born December 17, 1930 in Marshfield, Oregon, and was the only child of Ingrid and Carl Johnson. She passed away March 16, 2026 in Coos Bay. Nancy’s father, Carl passed away when she was 8 years old and Nancy and her mother, Ingrid continued to live on their farm in Coos River for several years. Nancy proudly took Coos River ferry to school each day before moving into then Coos Bay, after Marshfield changed its name to Coos Bay in 1944.

Nancy married Charles “Bert” Wilson, also a lifetime resident of Coos Bay, on November 15, 1952, when Bert returned from serving with the Army in Korea. Nancy worked at The Hub department store as an accountant for many years. She subsequently

got the entrepreneur spirit and started keeping the books as Bert’s businesses grew from his Mobilgas station on Central Avenue in Coos Bay, culminating with Bert’s RV Sales and Service, on Broadway in Coos Bay. Bert’s RV was, at one time, the largest RV dealership on the Oregon Coast.

Nancy was active in Soroptimist International for many years and participated in many activities with Bert at the Coos Bay Elks Club. She served on the church council at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church where she also sang in choir. She also loved to host Bridge games with her Bridge Club. She was devoted to her two children, Sharon, born in 1955, and Tom, born in 1956. The family took many fun RV trips with their RV family friends and often caravaned to campgrounds around the West.

After retiring, Nancy and Bert moved out of town to a 13-acre property off Old Wagon Road where Nancy harvested apples and made dozens, sometimes hundreds, of apple pies each summer. Bert

ents, Samuel J. Roderick of Spokane, Washington, and Mabel Roderick of Spokane, Washington and one niece.

Lew spent most of his life as a hairdresser in Las Vegas, Nevada. About 20 years ago, he moved to Spokane, Washington. Throughout his life, he had a deep love and appreciation for music, the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) rodeo, photography, watching NASCAR with his family, and collecting

various memorabilia. He also cherished attending family reunions in or near his hometown of Coos Bay, Oregon. Lew served in the Army in 1959 and traveled abroad. He always fondly remembered his time in the armed forces and the experiences it provided him. Lew has requested that his ashes be returned to Coos County, Oregon, where he will finally find peace at home.

Miriam Marie Brown August 14, 1937 – February 28, 2026 Miriam Marie (Train) Brown, 88, of Myrtle Point, passed away on February 28, 2026, at Bay Area Hospital in Coos Bay, Oregon. She was born on August 14, 1937, in McMullen Creek, Myrtle Point, to Russell Train and Dora Belle (McMullen) Train. Although Miriam passed away unexpectedly, she took her final breath, surrounded by an abundance of family and friends who filled the room with love. The room was packed as the chaplain offered a final prayer, and her son gently rubbed her heart while softly humming Amazing Grace.

It was a moment that reflected the very essence of her life—Miriam valued community, and in return, the community deeply valued her.

Miriam graduated from Saint Mary’s of the Valley Catholic School in Portland and later from Skadron College of Business in California with a degree in bookkeeping. After completing her education, she returned to Myrtle Point, where she met Orville Brown. They married in November 1957 and remained together until his passing in January 2005. In October 2005, she married Robert (Bob) Mast, and they were married until his passing in 2016.

Miriam lovingly embraced Orville’s three children from his previous marriage and, in June 1958, welcomed the first of her six children. While raising their family, she worked various jobs until discovering her true passion serving her community through the Myrtle Point Ambulance service. She

began volunteering in 1979 while working part-time at Security Bank. In 1986, when asked to choose between her job and her volunteer work, Miriam chose service.

She later became Director of Myrtle Point Ambulance, earning her Paramedic certification through Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC). She was instrumental in establishing the Myrtle Point Health/Fire District and wrote numerous grants that funded ambulances and essential equipment. As an EMT/ Paramedic instructor for SWOCC, she trained many who followed in her footsteps. After retiring from the ambulance service in 2005, she worked on-call as a medical assistant for North Bend Medical Center. She also played a key role in the passage of ORS 163.245, Oregon’s Custodial Interference Law. Miriam lived on the same family property where she raised her children, remaining there until her passing. She was active in the Myrtle Point Rotary Club, the Myrtle Point Senior Center, the Myrtle Point Health/Fire District, and local genealogy groups. She will be remembered for her unselfish acts of kindness, her generosity, her adventurous spirit including a spirited trip to Ireland just two years ago and the special bond she shared with her dog, Precious. Her greatest joy was her family: her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.

Miriam was predeceased by her parents; all siblings except her brother, Mike

Roby of Coos Bay; both husbands; daughters, Tammy Brown and Patricia Barney; and granddaughter, Daniella Elder-Brown.

She is survived by her children Kathy (Dan) Schnur of Myrtle Point; Rusty Brown of Hillsboro; Charlie Brown of Myrtle Point; Samuel Brown Sr. of Coos Bay; and Harry (Susan) Brown of Myrtle Point. She is also survived by six stepchildren: Daniel (Diana) Brown of Idaho; Tanya Brown of Coquille; Willena Pesacreta of California; and Robert Mast, Billy Mast, and Loretta Al-Essa, all of the Portland area. She leaves behind numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren.

A service will be held Saturday, March 28, at 11:00 a.m. at the Oaks Pavilion at the Myrtle Point Fairgrounds. Burial will follow at Norway Cemetery, with a private graveside service.

ed for completion in three phases, with the first phase expected to be done by the end of June this year. That will include a small amphitheater with seating and recreational space ready just in time for North Bend’s big summer event, July Jubilee.

“It provides an area for assembly and events. It’s a pocket park, which is going in right now,” said North Bend Public Works Director Relph Dunham.

The second phase will include further landscaping and planting. Also planned is a solar carport, which will be one of the first green projects for the city. The energy from that carport will power the Visitors Center, taking roughly $6,000 off the city’s power bill.

High graduate with a bachelor’s in English from Southern Oregon University, and an MBA from Portland State. He has served on several local budget committees, including those of the county, the Coos Bay School District, and the Corvallis School District. Rick keeps a strong focus on economic development, having also worked on the boards of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce and South Coast Development Council.

Coleman is a North Bend High graduate and a U.S. Army veteran currently working in management at Johnson Rock Products.

Coleman ran unsuccessfully for the SWOCC board in 2025 and has been in attendance at multiple events put on by FOCCR.

The third phase, which is expected to carry into the new year, consists of finishing the parking lot and installing a public restroom.

The total cost of the first phase of the project is projected at around $700,000. $300,000 of that is covered by the aforementioned grants. The remaining portion is covered through the City’s transient lodging tax.

“That’s where the funds are coming from because it helps as both a tourism attraction and as vitality for the community,” said Dunham. “What will be remaining is the new public restroom, the carport, and finishing the parking lot.

Then we’ll be done, and it will be ready to enjoy for years.”

The Visitor’s Center will remain open during construction, and North Bend Main Street events are expected to continue without

Julie Brecke is running for reelection as the Coos County Clerk, having served one term in the position. Brecke was a teacher in the North Bend School District for 15 years, and in addition to her work with the County, is an adjunct instructor at SWOCC. She is challenged for the position by Marty Kuhrt, a Bandon republican with 20 years of experience in computer science, for which he received a bachelor’s from Iowa State University.

Also running for the role is Pam Lewis, a coquille republican and registered nurse. Lewis served as an EMT supervisor for 30 years, as well as a nurse in multiple capacities: ER,

charge nurse, and in multiple correctional facilities.

She has also served on the County Fair Board.

Ballot Measures

There are two local measures on the ballot this May, both for the City of North Bend The first is measure 6-228, titled Measure Maintaining Police Services Through Public Safety Fee Increase. The measure seeks to increase the City’s public safety fee by $5 per month to fund the police department.

“The fee supports core public safety operations, including patrol staffing, emergency response, and overall service availability,” states the measure notice. “The increase would also fund a police

detective position, which is intended to improve the City’s ability to investigate crimes, manage caseloads, and maintain timely follow-ups on public safety concerns.”

The City warns that it may be required to reduce staffing throughout the department should a funding measure not be met.

The second measure, 6-229, concerns an update to the city charter. This would contain amendments to North Bend’s primary operational guidelines.

Some of the primary changes proposed include: -Increasing the Mayoral term from two years to four years -Changing the title of the ‘City Administrator’ to ‘City Manager’ -Allowing council rules

“As the Port of Coos Bay moves forward with this significant industrial project, residents of the historic Empire district and Barview are convening to discuss critical concerns regarding infrastructure, environmental changes, and neighborhood character.

The World will be going into depth on each of these ballot items in the weeks before the election, including interviews with candidates and deeper dives on the proposed measures. Stay tuned for election coverage all the way through vote certification.

Coos Bay City Council,” stated the group.

The meeting will be attended by members of the Port and Coos Bay City Council, which will be the first time outside of their chambers that people will be able to present their questions directly to members of both boards. The Concerned Citizens is hopeful that a representative from NorthPoint Development, the private company contracted with the construction of the terminal, will be present as well.
