City of Brookings’ Due Diligence

BY LINDA LEE Curry Coastal Pilot

A lot can be said about a small community’s ability to follow through with due diligence once a speciﬁc requirement is mandated by the federal government.

This is exactly the case when it comes to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) instructing the city to follow compliance with required statutes.

“A letter, mandated and drafted by the EPA, was sent from the city to any public water user if we (the city) do not have a record of what their water service line is,” said Brookings Public Works and Service Director Anthony Baron.

What began in 2021 with the EPA’s Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) requirements for communities with a public water system has become one of the biggest environmental initiatives for the current administration.

Approximately, nine months ago the EPA ordered cities across the United States to begin to comply with The Lead and Copper

Rule Improvements (LCRI) handed down by the Biden-Harris administration.

A final ruling was issued last October for cities to begin complying with the mandate which includes the initial service line inventory, notification to persons served of known or potential lead service line, Tier 1 public notification of a lead action level exceedance, and associated reporting requirements, according to the EPA’s website.

“We had to identify all the homes that were built prior to 1986 because we know that materials, like galvanized and copper pipes and parts, have lead associated with them,” said Baron. “Anything after 1986, we know what the line is because that type of material was banned.”

Baron further explained that the city has records on their side of the pipeline, which leads up to the property, but does not have records for the private side of the pipeline which goes from public service line to the property boundary to include inside any dwelling.

“If somebody has some concerns, they need to have somebody come check it out,” stated Baron “This also gives the homeowner peace of mind knowing what type of materials their home has.”

The LCRI rule would also require cities to provide more thorough testing of the public drinking water to help further protect its citizens from exposure to toxic lead in future.

According to the ruling, cities have ten years to comply with identifying and replacing lead pipes, but says nothing about the private sector and how homeowners are to manage the issue.

“We sent out 1,634 letters to our citizens,” said Baron. “It doesn’t mean they have lead in their pipes. It just means they should do due diligence and know what type of serviceline materials they have.”

No ocean wind turbines along Oregon’s Southern Coast

CONTRIBUTED ARTICLE

Coos Bay, OR — Oregonians Against Wind Turbines (OAWT) has long been at the forefront of opposing the massive offshore wind energy development proposed for Oregon's southern coast. Supported by both the state of Oregon and the federal government, this project would place hundreds of towering wind turbines in near-shore ocean waters off Coos and Curry Counties. These turbines are designed to be as tall as the Empire State Building, disrupting the local environment and community.

The ﬁght to stop this wind energy development has been a surprise to many South Coast residents, but for OAWT, the opposition began in earnest long before the 2024 proposals gained attention. Efforts to develop ocean energy in Oregon date back to 2013, when the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) received an unsolicited proposal from Oregon State University (OSU) to study the potential of wave energy offshore Newport, OR. The OSU’s Paciﬁc Marine Energy Center, or PacWave, was initially seen as a small-scale research initiative aimed at advancing clean energy.

However, as OAWT’s founders emphasize, things have dramatically changed since then. By 2024, BOEM’s proposal to lease 200,000 acres of nearshore ocean waters for a massive industrial-scale wind turbine project has sparked overwhelming opposition. The vast majority of Coos and Curry County residents now view the proposal as detrimental to their communities. In fact, during the November 5, 2024 elections, local voters decisively rejected the project, with more than 30,000 voters voicing their opposition through Ballot Measures 8-116 and 6-219.

“Thanks to the leader-

ship in Coos and Curry counties, more than 30,000 voters sent a clear message to BOEM: ‘NO OCEAN

WIND TURBINES

ALONG OREGON’S SOUTHERN COAST,’” said Rob Taylor, OAWT Co-Founder.

Voters are increasingly skeptical of the project, citing what they see as ﬂawed science and poor economic projections. Many feel the proposed wind turbines are based on unreliable scientific data, as the projections have not been grounded in actual construction or operational experience. As a result, wind energy developers are struggling to estimate the true costs and

risks of the project, leaving taxpayers and electricity consumers to bear the burden. The concern is that the government will step in to shield developers from ﬁnancial failure through higher electricity rates, subsidies, and reimbursements.

Diane Rich, OAWT Co-Founder, adds, “The proposed wind turbine project is neither green nor economically viable. It would result in skyrocketing electric bills—up to 3 to 4 times higher for utility customers—and it’s based on bad science and questionable ﬁnancial assumptions.”

While the victory on November 5 is a signiﬁcant

win for local residents, OAWT leaders caution that the ﬁght is far from over. “We didn’t win the battle; we’ve won a step toward victory,” said Taylor. Despite the strong local opposition, BOEM still has the power to push forward with the project without the transparency and oversight typically required for such large-scale developments. In fact, BOEM can still accept non-competitive, unsolicited proposals from developers—meaning future wind turbine proposals could bypass local planning controls and public involvement.

STAFF REPORT

The Oregon Community Foundation announced the recipients for their Fall Cycle of Community Grants, with South Coast organizations and non-proﬁts receiving $206,000 from the philanthropic foundation. The statewide funder has distributed 8 new grants on the South Coast to support capacity building, small capital and new or expanding projects by nonproﬁts.

The announcement came on #GivingTuesday, an international day of generosity that follows Thanksgiving.

Statewide, the new round of funding includes 248 grants for nearly $5.8 million. That brings the total awarded in Community Grants by OCF to a record $11.1 million for the year, including funding previously announced in the spring.

“Community Grants are OCF’s ‘open door’ for nonproﬁts working to improve the lives of people in Southern Oregon in so many ways,” says OCF Board Member and United Way of Jackson County CEO and Executive Director Dee Anne Everson, “Sometimes that’s wildﬁre resilience programs or a kitchen that serves kids in need. And other times, what's needed is a vehicle that helps a program reach rural communities. The goal is to support what’s working.”

The grants are possible because of the generosity of Oregon Community Foundation donors.

Just as the new funding reaches Oregon nonproﬁts, OCF has opened the next round of Community Grants to be distributed in spring 2025. The deadline is Jan. 14, 2025. The goal is to provide equitable access to ﬂexible funding for organiza-

Oregon Lottery transfers $947M back to the state

JEREMY C. RUARK Country Media, Inc.

The Oregon Lottery will return more than $947 million to the state for the 2024 ﬁscal year – a $48 million increase from the previous year.

BY THE NUMBERS

The Oregon Lottery generated $940 million in proﬁt and reduced reserves nearly $8 million, enabling the higher return, according to a release from Oregon Lottery ofﬁcials.

Unclaimed prizes for the year totaled $8 million and will also go back to the state. The funding directly beneﬁts state parks and natural habitats, public schools, veteran services, outdoor school, and economic development, the release states.

Oregon Lottery is self-funded through the sale of games, not tax dollars, and voters and the Legislature designate where the money goes.

“Oregonians help support the state programs they care about by playing our games,” Oregon Lottery Director Mike Wells said. “We continue to celebrate the wins of our players, the retailers who sell our games, and the public programs lifted up by these funds in our communities.”

WINNER HISTORY

Lucky lottery players earned payouts totaling nearly $16 billion for the year.

Including a record-breaking $1.3 billion Powerball win in the spring, 13 players took home prizes worth $1 million or more. Prizes big and small account for about 92% of the Lottery dollars played, according to the state lottery ofﬁcials. Sales commissions on Lottery games also support retailers, many of whom are small business owners. The 3,800 Lottery retailers across Oregon collectively earned close to $310 million in commissions this year. Since 2016, Oregon Lottery has maintained the highest level of accreditation for responsible gambling from both the National Association of State and Provincial Lotteries/National Council on Problem Gambling and the World Lottery Association’s (WLA) Responsible Gambling programs, the release states. Oregon is one of only eight lotteries in the U.S. to reach this level by the WLA.

The Lottery’s ﬁnancial year runs from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024. A ﬁnal audited report is posted to Oregon Lottery’s website under “Proceeds and Financials.” Since the Oregon Lottery began selling tickets on April 25, 1985, it has earned nearly $15.5 billion for economic development, public education, outdoor school, state parks, veteran services, and watershed enhancements.

Curry County Commissioners Deliberate Law

BY ELLIOT SCHWARZ

Curry Coastal Pilot

The Curry County Board of Commissioners held a workshop on November 25 to refine plans for a proposed five-year public safety levy aimed at addressing critical understaffing in the Sheriff's Office. If approved, the levy, set at $1.12 per $1,000 of assessed property value, could raise approximately $4.3 million annually to hire five new patrol deputies and two dispatchers.

Purpose and Urgency

Advocates of the levy, including a group of concerned citizens, emphasized the urgent need for more patrol deputies to cover the county’s extensive rural areas, citing rising crime and limited resources. Currently, the Sheriff's Ofﬁce operates with three deputies patrolling over 100 miles of coastline.

“This levy would restore safety to our community,” said Georgia Cockerham, a representative of the citizen group supporting the proposal and advocating the position held by Curry County Sheriff John Ward, who was not in attendance.

Sheriff’s Lt. Jeremy Krohn outlined how the funds would provide additional stafﬁng, alleviate strain on the general fund, and improve dispatch services. A ﬁve-member citizen oversight committee is planned to ensure transparency in fund allocation.

Proposal to Add a Detective

During the workshop, Commissioner Brad Alcorn suggested expanding the levy’s scope to include a detective position. Alcorn argued that having a detective focus on follow-up investigations could free up deputies for patrol duties. “Right now, deputies are tied up with follow-up work on their own cases, leaving calls unanswered and reducing time spent on patrol,” he said.

He cited the Sheriff's Office’s history of employing detectives who previously managed significant caseloads, emphasizing the potential efficiency gains. By offloading investigative responsibilities to a dedicated detective, patrol deputies could focus on responding to active calls. However, Alcorn noted that the proposal would require further data to determine how many cases currently require follow-up and whether the addition of a detective would effectively reduce the strain on patrol resources.

Krohn, presenting the Sheriff's position, acknowledged the potential value of a detective but expressed concerns about prioritizing patrol stafﬁng under the current plan, calling the plan “…a big city solution for a small county.” He described the levy’s primary mission as increasing visible law enforcement presence on Curry County roads.

Contentious Discussions

The commissioners debated whether the current levy proposal sufﬁciently addressed public safety or if broader changes were needed. Commissioner Alcorn also advocated for funding additional corrections staff to ensure adequate jail operations, preventing the ongoing issue of backﬁlling jail vacancies with patrol deputies.

County Counsel and Director of Operations Ted Fitzgerald raised concerns about ﬁscal sustainability, pointing to projections showing the levy may become insufﬁcient by its fourth year due to rising costs.

“We need to ensure this funding lasts and delivers tangible results for public safety,” Fitzgerald stated.

Operational Logistics and Challenges

Questions about deployment strategies emerged. Khron conﬁrmed the new deputies would restore pre-cut hours, with two deputies covering the county from 6 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. Alcorn questioned whether this schedule was the most effective use of resources, suggesting alternative stafﬁng models that could include nighttime coverage.

Public Trust and Next Steps

A key challenge discussed was public skepticism after a prior levy failed. Over 71 percent of Curry County voters rejected a ballot measure to set a ﬁve-year property tax levy of $2.23 per $1,000 of assessed property value to fund 24-7 sheriff’s patrols. It is widely assumed that the voters felt the proposed tax was too high.

Commissioners and advocates agreed on the need for clear and precise communication about how the funds would be used. They also acknowledged potential hurdles in recruiting staff due to limited funding guarantees and existing stafﬁng shortages.

The workshop ended with calls for collaboration between the Sheriff’s Ofﬁce, commissioners, and community members to reﬁne the levy proposal before it goes to voters in May.

Wild Rivers Coast

“This levy is about prioritizing safety for all residents,” said Commissioner Jay Trost. He emphasized to Cokerham and Krohn that the objective in crafting the levy was to draft the “…most robust legislation that the voters would support. He urged unity in the county’s approach.

Alcorn asked Commissioner-elect Patrick Hollinger, who was in attendance, to weigh in, noting. “…you take ofﬁce in a few weeks, and I'd like to hear your perspective.”

Hollinger expressed his concern that “…this will directly affect me I cannot sit here … without having … involvement…and saying yeah I support this because what if I don't agree …what if I don't have the answers by the time I'm sworn in and now I'm forced to go out and essentially lie to the public… to get a vote, so my request would be; let's take the foot off the gas pedal…let's move forward with and complete a third-party audit.”

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to fee and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have the right to purchase this property after the trustee auction, pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the

property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 530-246-2727; Toll Free: 844-333-6766, or visit this internet website: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS#24-3114, to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the street address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call the trustee’s information line at 530-246-2727; Toll Free: 844-333-6766, or visit this Internet Website: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS #243114. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.
