High court rules in favor of St. Timothy’s

BY NATE SCHWARTZ Country Media Inc.

Medford, OR - A decision was handed down in the case of St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church (plaintiff) v. City of Brookings (defendant) this week after being heard in the US District Court in Medford. The court ruled in the church’s favor, granting a motion for summary judgment to St. Timothy’s, while denying the city’s motions for summary judgment and dismissal.

Background

The City of Brookings enacted an ordinance in late October 2021, which changed the zoning code to require conditional use permits for ‘benevolent meal service’, and restricted the frequency with which meals could be served. St. Timothy’s, which is technically located in a residential zone, was directly affected by the new ordinance.

St. Timothy’s, who have operated at 401 Fir Street in Brookings since 1953, predate the city’s original residential code and we’re therefore grandfathered in. They have provided free lunchtime meals since 2009. Then overseen by Ron Hedenskog, the meal service continued to grow during his Mayoral stint from 20122018.

The church increased the frequency of its meal service as homelessness numbers rose in Brookings. When the Covid-19 Pandemic reached Brookings, many other churches stopped serving meals. St. Timothy’s increased their meal service again to compensate, offering five to six meals a week.

In early 2021, the City issued St. Timothy’s a permit to host individuals living out of their cars on their property, as part of a City-sponsored program

Waterspout spotted off Cape Farrelo

An uncommon weather phenomenon was captured on video on Wednesday, March 27th, 2024, by multiple Curry County residents. A waterspout was spotted about a quartermile offshore at Cape Ferrelo at around 7:45 PM, and quickly reported by RogueWeather.com.

Two videos, captured by Andy Martin and Mark Unger of Curry County, show the impressive size and rotation of the waterspout. We spoke with Ryan Sandler, Warning Coordination Meteorologist for the National Weather Service branch in Medford, Oregon, to get some more information.

Waterspouts can fall into one of two categories. There are fair weather waterspouts, which form in relatively calm conditions and are generally less dangerous. The waterspout seen on Wednesday was a tornadic waterspout.

Functionally identical to a tornado, a tornadic waterspout is simply a tornado that forms over water or moves from land to water. The source of the rotation comes from up in the clouds and

works its way downward to the water. This is a tricky thing to track off-shore, as the rotations form below the zone typically detectable by radar, hence why reports of waterspouts are few and far between.

“They are a little more common on the Northern Oregon coast. I would say there may be one a year, or one every couple years, that we know about,” said Sandler on their rarity, “We don’t issue many special marine warnings. They’re unusual partly because our radar… as you get to the coast, the radar beam goes higher and higher.”

In the videos, you can clearly see the rotation originating from the upper and middle portions of the storm. The funnel descends from the dropping supercell cloud wall and is picking up water from the surface and taking it upwards. This had weather enthusiasts of the South Coast very interested.

RougeWeather.com’s forecaster Greg Roberts commentated on some of the footage in awe of the

Curry Health Network receives $2 Million to launch chemotherapy services in Curry County

Gold Beach, OR – In a landmark advancement for healthcare services in Curry County, Curry Health Network (CHN) is elated to announce the receipt of $2 million in federal appropriation funds. This significant grant underscores a pivotal advancement in CHN’s mission to enhance local healthcare capabilities, notably through the expansion of infusion services and the introduction of essential chemotherapy treatment within the community.

The federal funds were secured thanks to the dedicated advocacy and collaborative efforts of CHN’s leadership and staff, alongside Oregon’s federal legislators. “We are profoundly grateful for the support and dedication of Senators Wyden and Merkley, as well as Congresswoman Hoyle, who have played instrumental roles in securing these funds for our community,” expressed Ginny Williams, CEO of Curry Health Network. “Their recognition of our needs and their decisive actions will significantly enhance the quality of life for Curry County residents confronting cancer.”

This successful funding application followed extensive

efforts, including a critical trip to Washington D.C. in March 2023. CEO Ginny Williams, CFO Rick Sicora, Dr. Reginald Williams, Derral Hawthorne, PA and member of the CHN Board of Directors, and Shelby Mickelson, CHN’s Dietary Manager, made a compelling case for the project. Shelby Mickelson’s poignant account of the challenges she and her late husband encountered during his cancer battle left a profound impression on the delegates, with Congresswoman Hoyle, in her announcement call, specifically praising Shelby for her courage and the significant impact of her story.

If all goes as planned, construction could begin in Spring 2025. The new chemotherapy facility will adjoin Curry General Hospital in Gold Beach, with an anticipated opening in January 2026. The center will feature 8 chemotherapy chairs and clinic space for an oncologist, aiming to serve over 100 patients annually. This initiative represents a beacon of hope for residents who currently endure significant travel burdens for cancer treatment, substantially improving access to vital

Ballot snapshot for Curry County May

Primary

The May Primary for Oregon is quickly approaching in what is shaping up to be a divisive and contentious election cycle. In order to cut through the rhetoric and over-promising ever present in any election, here are the basics that you need to know for your Curry County primary election.

Ballots

In Oregon, no voter will see all the candidates on their ballot. Instead, the spring primary is set up to allow major political parties to nominate contenders for the General Election ballot, where pivotal positions like the presidency are decided. To cast a vote in a major party’s nominations, individuals must be registered with that party at least 21 days before the May 21st election date, which is April 30, 2024. This deadline also applies to new voter registrations for those who hope to partake in the May Primary Election. Those aligned with minor parties, or unaffiliated voters, will exclusively receive ballots for nonpartisan races.

Starting May 1st, 2024, all active registered voters in Curry County will receive their ballots via mail. For those who haven’t received their ballots by May 9th, the Elections Office can be reached at (541) 396-7610 or via email at elections@ co.coos.or.us. Additionally, voters can monitor the status of their ballots online approximately 45 days before the election at www. oregonvotes.gov/myvote.

for sheriff, John Ward stands head and shoulders above the field. He checks all the boxes for professional competency through both training and experience. In fact, John Ward is the only candidate on your ballot who possesses all the statutory qualifications to serve as an Oregon sheriff.

But there is more to John Ward than his professional qualifications. There is what we know about him as a person.

• He is a life-long member of the Curry County community, with time away only to serve in the U.S. Navy

• He has served the people of this county as a deputy, Sgt., Lt. and as our sheriff

• He is a quiet and humble man who is known by his actions

• He is a hands-on sheriff who does it all--as likely to attend a state-level legislative meeting as to leave his office to handle a radio call, supervise a hostage situation, participate in search and rescue or to help his patrol deputies by serving civil papers

• He has proven his personal courage and commitment to his people many times, as when he helped rescue in a single incident one of his deputies and a young boy both of whom were in peril in the ocean

• He is one of those rare people who leads by example

• He continues every day to

demonstrate caring, honesty, commitment to service and humility

He has earned the respect of those who know him, and he has earned the votes we proudly give to reelect him as Curry County Sheriff.

People, clean up after your dogs

I don’t mind that your dogs poop in my yards. They’re dogs; they don’t know any better. I do mind that you leave their poop for me to clean up.

Kathleen E. Kenealy Brookings

Stand together or be divided I will try and put this as politely as I can. The homeless are here weather you want them or not, a lot of them don’t want to be homeless and are doing their best to get out of a bad position, when you treat them bad then they will be bad to you. You are wrong they are wrong, this is the U.S.A. If we don’t all stand together to make this country great again then we will all be divided. That would be far worse than standing together. I know some homeless don’t want help, most of them do. I have lived in Curry and Coos county for 61 years I have never seen it so bad. Wake up people!

Thank you.

7 resources you can use to manage your mental health

BY STAN POPOVICH Guest Column

Are you having trouble finding places to get some assistance for your mental health?

Nowadays, many places have waiting lists, and some places can be very expensive. This can be very frustrating when you need help right away.

As a result, here are 7 options you can use to start the process of getting some assistance as quickly as possible.

1. Contact your doctor: Your doctor is a great source in finding available mental health resources in your area. Explain your situation to your doctor and ask if he or she knows of anyone that can help you. Chances are your doctor will be able to give you some referrals.

2. Go to the nearest hospital: Your local hospitals can give you immediate assistance for your mental health issues. The people who work at a hospital know of other professionals in your area that can provide you with additional treatment. In addition, some hospitals may offer various mental health services that are available to the public.

3. Talk to the insurance companies: Your insurance company can provide a list of mental health services and other treatment programs that are covered in your health plan. If you do not have health insurance, you could still contact some of those companies and see if they can point you in the right direction regarding your current circumstances. There could be some affordable programs in your area that you do not know about.

4. Talk to the local churches: Your local churches may know of

programs in your area that you could go to in overcoming your anxieties and stresses. Many churches offer mental health and addiction programs that anyone can take advantage of. A priest or minister can also provide additional advice to your situation.

5. Find a support group: There are all kinds of mental health support groups that can help you with your issues. Go to a support group in your area and meet people who are also struggling with addiction and depression. A person can go on the internet or talk to some of the local mental health organizations to get more information about what is in their area.

6. Network with others: Many people have dealt with fear and anxiety sometime in their life. Talk to the people that you trust to see if they have any suggestions on where you can go for some assistance. Make sure that your friends can keep things confidential and do not get into the habit of giving out too much personal information to others.

7. Contact your local mental health organizations: There are many private, public, nonprofit, and governmental organizations that specialize in various mental health services that you can talk to for some assistance. The people at these places can give you some ideas on where you can find some mental health programs and counselors that can help you right away.

phenomenon. “You know if this thing came on shore and it hit say Brookings, with that kind of rotation, that kind of punch to it, this would have been very capable of doing some damage. Again, we just don’t get tornadoes in Oregon very often, but today is a day where we did. I’m so happy that we had multiple people out there in the area to get the pictures, get the videos… Red-letter day for weather in Oregon,” said Roberts on the RogueWeather Facebook page.

healthcare services.

Curry County residents face alarming cancer mortality rates, 11.8% higher than the Oregon state average and 12.3% higher than the national average.

The establishment of local chemotherapy services is anticipated to directly address these disparities, significantly reducing the need for extensive travel that many patients currently face.

Curry County’s geographic isolation, compounded by the susceptibility of U.S. Highway 101 to frequent closures, underscores the critical need for accessible cancer treatment services. “We extend our heartfelt appreciation to Senators Wyden and Merkley, Congresswoman Hoyle, and our dedicated team members

who traveled to Washington D.C. to champion this cause,” Williams added. “Their commitment to the health and well-being of our community is truly commendable.”

The total cost of the project is estimated at approximately $8.5 million, with the federal funding playing a crucial role in realizing this vital service. As Curry Health Network progresses with this project, it reaffirms its dedication to enhancing healthcare services and improving the lives of

Curry County residents.

Pride-in-the-Park returns for a second year

Southern Oregon Coast Pride (SOC Pride) is returning to Brookings on June 1, 2024 for its second-annual Pride-in-the-Park celebration! The festival is hoping to bring in another large turnout and continue that enthusiasm through additional events taking place all month long.

“The park is FILLED with attendees. Last year was our first big event and drew a lot of, ‘I never thought this would happen here’ reaction from both 2SLGBTQIA+ community members and allies,” said Southern Oregon Coast Pride Director Laura Erceg.

SOC Pride is inviting the community to engage and participate in the event in multiple ways. They are seeking community members to host activity, information, and vendor tables for the festival. Contributions of in-kind goods, among other things, are also a great way to support the event according to Rev. Sister Cora Lea Rose, another of the event’s organizers.

•

“I think that the best way the community can help out are through sponsorships, volunteering day-of, donating in-kind goods, and of courseattending! Another important step is to commit to affirming people and being a safe and supportive adult to the young people in your life, all year long,” said Rose.

The festival is also offering sponsorship opportunities for local businesses. Sponsorships levels start as low as $25 to encourage everyone to support the event. Options range up to $5000 with a commensurate range of publicity opportunities to match.

“Fred Meyer donated goods for a portion of our free community meal, and local organizations and businesses showed support by having a table at the event and/or by fiscally sponsoring the event. It was amazing,” said Erceg about their local sponsors.

Those looking to support the event through volunteering or other means can visit SOCPride.org. SOC Pride states

that whatever your business or organization’s interest or sponsorship level, you are invited to reach out to Director Laura Erceg, whose information is

CASE NO. PB247012

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the lost WILL or estate, or both of DEANNA L. ESMAEEL.

AN AMENDED PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by LAILA ESMAEEL AND OMAR ESMAEEL in the Superior Court of California, County of Del Norte.

THE AMENDED PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that LAILA ESMAEEL AND OMAR ESMAEEL be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE AMENDED PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 05/10/24 at 10:00AM in Dept. 10 located at 450 H STREET #209, CRESCENT CITY, CA 95531

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.

PLAINTIFF’S COMPLAINT TO QUIET TITLE TO REAL PROPERTY, NOT SUBJECT TO MANDATORY

ARBITRATION

Plaintiff alleges as follows:

1. Plaintiff is entitled to immediate possession and ownership of a parcel of real property (“Property”)

located in Curry County, Oregon, known as 42681 Arizona Street, consisting of 4.55 acres, MAP: 3215-29-01500-00 CODE

1-3, and more particularly described as:

Beginning at a point 870 feet West of the Quarter Corner between Section Twenty-nine (29) and Thirty-two (32) in Township Thirty-two (32) South, Range Fifteen (15) West of the Willamette Meridian; thence running North 521.78 feet; thence West 417.42 feet; thence South 521.78 feet; thence East 417.42 feet to the place of beginning, all in Curry County, Oregon.

EXPECTING THEREFROM those parcels conveyed by John C. Price and Ida M. Price to Oscar Potter and Odie Mae Potter recorded April 14, 1958, in Deed Book 52, page 655 and corrected by instrument recorded November 12, 1959, in Deed Book 57, page 259 and further EXCEPTING THEREFROM that parcel conveyed by John C. Price and Ida M. Price, husband and wife, to Ben Potter and Dobra [sic] Potter by deed recorded November 12, 1959, in Deed Book 57, page 260. 2. Plaintiff is entitled to a percentage of ownership of the property legally described above by way of the following Estates: i. FRANCIS MARIE BARRINGTON, Curry County Court Case No. 04PR056. ii. KENNETH MELVIN HENSLEY, Curry County Court Case No. 07PR028. iii. GLENN EVERETT HENSLEY, DOD March 30, 1998. iv. LYLE BYRON HENSLEY, DOD May 25, 2018.

3. The real property described above herein currently remains titled in the name of FRANCIS

MARIE BARRINGTON, by way of Curry County Instrument No. 33-353 and 33-354 as shown on attached Exhibit “A” incorporated herein.

KENNETH MELVIN

HENSLEY filed an Affidavit of Claiming Successor of Small Estate Administration of Testate Estate on July 20, 2004 under Curry County Court Case No. 04PR056 for FRANCIS MARIE BARRINGTON in which the real property is listed on the Inventory of the Estate. The real property was to be divided as follows: i. KENNETH M. HENSLEY (Francis’ son) - 1/4 interest.

ii. LYLE B. HENSLEY (Francis’ son) - 1/4 interest. iii. NICKOLAS B. HENSELY (Francis’s son) - 1/4 interest.

iv. KYLE E. HENSLEY (Francis’ Grandson, son of Francis’ deceased son, Glenn Everett Hensley, DOD: 3/30/1998) - 1/8 interest. v. SCOTT L. HENSLEY (Francis’ Grandson, son of Francis’ deceased son, Glenn Everett Hensley, DOD: 3/30/1998) - 1/8 interest.

4. The real property was never deeded out in the appropriate shares by Claiming Successor, KENNETH M. HENSLEY, and thus still remains vested in FRANCIS MARIE BARRINGTON.

5. KENNETH MELVIN HENSLEY passed away on January 3, 2007. His brother, LYLE B. HENSLEY, was appointed Personal Representative of his Intestate Estate under Curry County Court Case No. 07PR028. The real property described herein above was not listed on the Inventory of the Estate likely because Kenneth never received his share of ownership by way of deed from Francis’s Estate. Kenneth had no children. The heirs to receive Kenneth’s Estate and share of the Arizona Street property, by way of Oregon Intestate laws are as follows: i. LYLE B. HENSLEY (Brother) - 1/3 interest.

ii. NICKOLAS B. HENSELY (Brother) - 1/3 interest.

iii. KYLE E. HENSLEY (Kenneth’s nephew, son of brother, Glenn Everett

Hensley - 1/6 interest.

v. SCOTT L. HENSLEY (Kenneth’s’ nephew, son of Brother, Glenn Everett Hensley - 1/6 interest.

6. KENNETH M. HENSLEY (Francis’ son) 1/4 interest in the 42681 Arizona Street real property described herein above was never deeded out in the appropriate percentages by the Personal Representative, LYLE B. HENSLEY, who then passed away on May 25, 2018.

7. There has been no administration of LYLE BYRON HENSLEY’S Estate. He leaves behind two daughters who would be entitled to his Intestate Estate in 50/50 equal shares, including his percentage of ownership he was to receive in the 42681 Arizona Street property.

Lyle’s two heirs are:

i. LISA HENSLEY, KNA: LISA COX.

ii. JEANIE HENSLEY.

8. If the Arizona Street property had been deeded out accordingly in all three of the above estates, ownership would be as follows:

i. LISA HENSLEY, KNA: LISA COX- 0.1666 interest (1/6).

ii. JEANIE HENSLEY 0.1666 interest (1/6).

iii. NICKOLAS B. HENSELY 0.3333 interest (1/3).

iv. KYLE E. HENSLEY 0.1666 interest (1/6).

v. SCOTT L. HENSLEY 0.1666 interest (1/6).

9. Plaintiff, JEANIE HENSLEY owns the Manufactured Structure that sits on 42861 Arizona Street, Port Orford, Oregon. She has been taking care of the property and paying the taxes and insurance on the entirety of the property since 2018 to present. This process is necessary to cure prior title defects and vest title into Plaintiff, JEANIE HENSLEY.

10. The known heirs/ devisees of the FRANCIS MARIE BARRINGTON, KENNETH MELVIN HENSLEY, and LYLE BYRON HENSLEY, all may claim some estate, right, title, lien, or interest in the property described above and however all known heirs/devisees have notified Plaintiff that they would be willing to sign a Quitclaim Deed and Release, granting any interest they may own to Plaintiff, JEANIE HENSLEY, the tittle company requires all known and unknown heirs/ devisees to be named as Defendants in this suit to produce a clean title.

to assist the homeless community. The neighbors were not happy with this development and issued a ‘Petition to Remove Homeless from St. Timothy Church’, citing vagrancy and concerns for public safety and property value.

The sentiment toward the church seemed to turn during this period, and the City seemed to overcorrect. After ceasing the car camping program and cooperating with law enforcement during that period, the City reported the plaintiffs to several public health agencies. In response, the Church applied for and received

a license from the Oregon Health Authority to serve meals.

On October 25th, 2021, the City enacted an ordinance which created a newly required conditional use permit specifically aimed at ‘benevolent meal services’ and the ability for residentially zoned facilities to provide them. The ordinance restricted meal service to two days a week.

The Suit

In January, 2022, the plaintiffs filed a suit against the City claiming the ordinance as unlawful and requesting an injunction against its enforcement. The plaintiffs invoked the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons

Act of 2000 (RLUIPA) and the First Amendment of the Constitution.

Following a long period of discovery, both the plaintiff and defendant filed motions for summary judgement, meaning they both aimed to have the Court rule in their favor without need for trial, with the decision made based on the evidence already submitted.

Based on this information, the Court decided to grant summary judgement to the plaintiff, and denying it for the defendant. This is a comprehensive victory for St. Timothy’s. The Court explained its decision in a release on March 27, 2023.

“As a preliminary matter, there can be no genuine question that St.

Timothy’s feeding ministry is a sincerely held religious belief… as a general, practical matter, feeding the hungry and caring for the most vulnerable members of a community is at the very heart and foundation of the Christian tradition,” stated the Court, alongside citations from the bible supporting this statement.

The legal basis for the decision was that the City’s ordinance violated RLUIPA, stating that the ordinance greatly burdens the plaintiff in exercising its religion, and does not serve a compelling government interest.

“RLUIPA prohibits the government from implementing a land use regulation that imposes a substantial burden on religious exercise unless

Redwoods and after a short courtship they married on May 26, 1989. Together they raised their girls, Amber and Ashley.

In 1999, Jerry moved to Nevada and after a lifelong career as a heavy equipment operator he retired in July 2013. In 2017, Jerry and Pamela moved back to the coast where they were active in their church and enjoying spending time with their children and grandchildren. Jerry could once again be found with their dogs, Georgi and Rogue fishing in the river or enjoying a walk on the beach. Jerry thoroughly enjoyed retirement and living so close to his daughters and their families.

Jerry is survived by his mother Valerie; his wife Pamela; his brother Mike; his sisters Jeannie (Don) and Suzie (Dan); his daughters Amber (Alan) and Ashley (Jerimiah); his granddaughters Emily (Taylor), Aubrey, Lindsay, Madison, Alexa, Ruby, and his grandsons Aidin and Jace. Jerry was preceded in death by his son and father.

A celebration of life service will be held on April 6th, 2024, at 3 p.m. at the Brookings Church of the Nazarene, 1600 Chetco Avenue Brookings, Oregon. There will be food and refreshments immediately following the service. Purple was Jerry’s favorite color, so please come and support the family wearing your favorite purple attire.

the government can show that the regulation is the least restrictive means of achieving a compelling governmental interest,” stated the Court’s decision.

The Court continued to describe why the City’s claims were not seen as substantive enough. The City claimed that protecting public welfare and preventing crime should serve as ‘compelling government interest’, yet never specified how restricting meal service would accomplish this interest in practice.

The Court also cited the fact that the city had not tried to restrict the meal service of other nonsingle-family residential facilities that serve public meals (golf courses, day

cares, hospitals, etc).

This indicated to the Court that this ordinance was specifically targeted toward St. Timothy’s, despite the fact they had conducted meal service for over a decade with City knowledge.

Conclusion With US Judge Mark D Clarke presiding, St Timothy’s convincingly retained its right to religious land use, and its ability to continue meal service. Clarke stated that Brookings is ‘very fortunate’ to have Reverand Lindley their congregation in the community.

“The clergy and the congregation at St. Timothy’s have shown that they have been prepared to work with the City to care for those in need, and at the same time preserve the livability of the area for their neighbors by cooperating with law enforcement when necessary. The homeless are not ‘vagrants,’ but are citizens in need. This is a time for collaboration, not ill-conceived ordinances that restrict care and resources for vulnerable people in our communities,” stated Clarke in conclusion.

The question remains as to why the folks at City Hall thought this was a hill worth dying on. Surely the time and resources that went into restricting religious charity could have been better allocated toward actually attempting to abate the issue of homelessness in Brookings, rather than arbitrarily restricting their access to crucial services.

Kotek’s wife gets aide, office space as governor considers creating ‘Office of the First Spouse’

BY JULIA SHUMWAY Oregon Capital Chronicle

Gov. Tina Kotek is hiring a temporary aide to assist her wife, Aimee Kotek Wilson, as the governor considers expanding Kotek Wilson’s role and creating a new “Office of the First Spouse.”

Kotek spokeswoman Elisabeth Shepard confirmed that Meliah Masiba, the legislative director for the Department of Administrative Services, joined the governor’s office on a six-month rotation that began Monday. Masiba will explore creating the new office and “assist and support the current first spouse in her official capacity in support of the administration,” according to the governor’s office. Kotek’s plan, first reported by Willamette Week, comes as three top staffers left the governor’s office, departures some sources speculated were due to conflicts with Kotek Wilson. The governor’s office has declined to say why Chief of Staff Andrea Cooper, Deputy Chief of Staff Lindsey O’Brien and special adviser Abby Tibbs are leaving the office and have not yet turned over public records requested by the Capital Chronicle that could provide clarity. Shepard said Monday the three employees have not turned in resignation letters.

Cooper will leave Friday. Tibbs, a longtime lobbyist for Oregon Health & Science University, will return to the university on Sunday. O’Brien will go on leave April 5, and the governor’s office declined to say Friday whether O’Brien will return from that leave.

The governor’s office will pay Masiba her DAS salary of $11,984 per month, or nearly $72,000 for her six months in the governor’s office. She’ll report to acting Chief of Staff Chris Warner.

One of her first tasks will be joining Kotek Wilson at the National Governors’ Association’s annual first spouses retreat, which will be held in Salt Lake City Tuesday and Wednesday.

Mary Rowinski, the state employee who manages Mahonia Hall, will also attend, as will officers from Oregon State Police’s Dignitary Protection Unit. The association will pay for Kotek Wilson’s travel and lodging and reimburse most costs for state staff, according to the governor’s office.

Kotek ordered state police beginning in March to consistently provide security for Kotek Wilson when she attends events as a representative of the governor’s office. Thus far, Kotek Wilson has averaged less than one event per month, according to the governor’s office.

The governor’s office plans to cover the costs of increased security with its existing budget, which totaled nearly $31 million in the current two-year budget cycle.

Kotek Wilson has an office in the governor’s office that’s approximately 8 feet by 8 feet, the same size as other offices, Shepard said. She has attended several of Kotek’s standing weekly meetings with staff about behavioral health initiatives. Kotek Wilson has a masters in social work from Portland State University and has worked on social justice and social welfare issues.

Governors’ spouses typically take a back seat in Oregon, but they have held more prominent roles in other states. In California, for instance,

First Partner Jennifer Seibel Newsom leads campaigns focused on children’s mental and physical health and women’s equality. And in Washington, a state employee serves as First Lady Trudi Inslee’s assistant. According to the National Governors Association, many states have staff supporting the governor’s spouse.

Former Gov. Kate Brown’s husband, Dan Little, joined her at some public events and state travel but overall kept a low profile. Brown took over after former Gov. John Kitzhaber resigned because of an influencepeddling scandal involving

his fiancée, Cylvia Hayes. Before Kitzhaber’s resignation, top staff in his office were concerned about conflicts of interest involving Hayes and tried to minimize her role in the governor’s office, according to reporting from Willamette Week at the time.

Kotek Wilson has been more visible, including accompanying Kotek to most stops on her 36-county tour of the state in 2023 and sitting in on discussions about housing, behavioral health and education during the tour. During a December interview with the Capital Chronicle, Kotek said it was helpful to have Kotek Wilson with her both to show Oregonians that they were a family and because of Kotek Wilson’s social work experience.

“We knew we’d be

talking about mental health and addiction issues,” Kotek said. “Because of the First Lady’s background, just having her hear from local practitioners what was going on, that’s been a very helpful feedback loop as we continue to set our priorities in that area.”

The governor’s office added more information about Kotek Wilson, including a form to invite her to events, to the “about” page on the office’s website at some

point since the page was last archived by the Wayback Machine in December.
