Rocks rolling for south jetty repair

WILL CHAPPELL

Headlight Editor

After building up a stockpile of six-to-ten-ton rocks at the Port of Garibaldi through May and early June, contractors working to repair the south jetty at the entrance to Tillamook Bay have started transporting rocks across the bay to Kincheloe Point.

Andy Leavitt, project manager and president of Trade West Construction, the company performing the work, said that crews would begin placing stones near the root of the jetty within the month, at which point work will speed up.

Up to this point, stones have only been arriving at the staging area at the Port of Garibaldi in the early hours of the morning but as work ramps up, they will become common during the day.

Leavitt said that they hope to place between 500 and 600 tons of stone a day once they are operating at full capacity. Throughout the entire project, crews will place around 100,000 tons, or between four and six thousand individual rocks, helping to repair two, separate sections of the jetty near its root and head.

Initially, the stones are being transported from the Port of Garibaldi staging area to Kincheloe Point directly on the deck of the barge but they will soon be placed in the backs of transport trucks that will drive onto the barge and then directly to the jetty upon offload.

Before any of this work could begin, crews spent months preparing the area at Bayocean County Park between Kincheloe Point and the root of the south jetty to support the repair. Those efforts included

constructing a portion of new road and improving another section of existing road to accommodate the large transport trucks in the mile between the offload site and jetty. Crews also cleared a 10-acre site near the root of the jetty to be used for secondary staging of the stones, although Garrett Bryner, a quality control manager for Trade West, said that ideally rocks would move straight from the barge to the jetty. Workers also installed a temporary scale that will weigh the rocks

for final payment to the contractor.

Two or three teams of stone spotters and placers will be responsible for placing the rocks into the jetty using excavators. Leavitt said that finding people capable of performing the painstaking task of maneuvering the stones into the perfect position was difficult but that his crews had become experienced enough to move a stone from a barge into the jetty in Coos Bay in under an hour.

Work will begin on a 600-foot section of the jetty near its root this

year, before focus moves to an 800foot section near the head at the end of the jetty. Relatively smaller rocks will be used on the root section, while larger rocks, some weighing up to 40 tons, will be used near the head. The two sections are separated by a 3500-foot section of jetty on which crews will construct a temporary road for hauling the stones. Leavitt said that the team had budgeted for work stoppages during

Oeder helms Oregon Fire Chiefs Association

Headlight Editor

Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District Chief Jim Oeder took over as president of the Oregon Fire Chiefs Association in March and will lead the organization for the next year, coordinating lobbying and outreach activities. Oeder said that his primary focuses would be on amending new health and safety rules that would negatively impact firefighting services and working to boost funding for services across the state that are cash strapped due to rising costs and demand, and restrictions on taxing.

“It doesn’t matter whether we’re Portland area, Tualatin Valley, Clackamas Fires or even smaller than us, your Bay City, Netarts,” Oeder said, “we’re all up against the same thing, service and

Commissioners approve contract for Shiloh Levee project design

WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor

T he Tillamook County Board of Commissioners approved a $670,000 contract with DOWL for the design and construction engineering phases of the Shiloh Levee Project.

Rehabilitation of the 72-yearold levee that holds water back above Highway 101 north of the City of Tillamook will cost a projected $4.3 million total. County officials had been aware of issues with the levee dating back at least a decade and a 2018 survey by the United States Army Corps of Engineers gave the levee a rating of minimally acceptable due to shortcomings in the riverward slope and erosion.

Funding for the project has so far come from two grants from Business Oregon, one for $1.3 million and the other for $400,000. Tillamook County Chief of Staff Rachel Hagerty said that she is investigating further grants to support the project and that Business Oregon has a loan program that could also be used to fund the project, if none are available.

DOWL will manage the design and construction engineering phases of the project, including a wide variety of survey and model work, environmental assessments, and local, state and federal permitting.

The firm will also be responsible for developing a plan for the work and helping to put the project out to bid in March 2025.

your operating costs are getting to where we’re going to make cuts because we just can’t do everything anymore.”

Oeder took over the presidency of the Oregon Fire Chiefs Association (OFCA) after serving on the board of directors for the previous six years and holding the second and first vice presidencies in the last two years. The OFCA includes members from more than 300 firefighting services across the state and advocates for issues concerning them, as well as providing training.

Oeder has been a professional firefighter since arriving in Nestucca in 2009, following a 30-year career as a volunteer firefighter in Lebanon while working as a machinist.

In his role as president of the

OFCA, Oeder has already traveled to Washington D.C. to meet with federal legislators but says that most of his advocacy work will take place in Salem. Addressing the funding crunch hitting fire services across the state is the top priority for Oeder and the OFCA, as departments are caught between rising costs and stagnant revenues. Oeder said that firefighting apparatuses and equipment have seen cost increases anywhere from 50% to 200% in recent years and that less features are now included as standard, driving costs even higher.

Combined with Measures 5 and 50 restricting property tax increases in Oregon, Oregon fire districts are being forced increasingly to rely

Commissioners also approved adding the new veterans’ memorial coming to downtown Tillamook to the county’s insurance policy at a cost of $250 annually. The new memorial is scheduled for installation in the last week of June and will feature a sevenfoot-tall granite plinth topped by a bronze bald eagle situated in the triangle property between Pacific and Main Avenues and First Street. The front of the monument will bear an inscription memorializing veterans, while the right side will feature a POW MIA logo and the left an image of boots, a rifle and a helmet in honor of soldiers who died in combat. The memorial cost around $83,000 on its own, while the overall budget for the project including pathways to the memorial, the foundation for the memorial and landscaping will be over $200,000. Late Tillamook City Councilor Doug Henson spearheaded the project, raising funds and in-kind contributions to construct the memorial in 2023. Tillamook City Councilor Nick Torres has taken over the project since Henson’s passing in late April and said that the memorial needed insurance provided through a government entity, with the county being the most logical partner. Commissioners unanimously approved the request and voiced their appreciation for the monument’s addition. Commissioners also approved the installation of a French drain at the site of Community Action Resource Enterprise’s forthcoming homeless shelter on First Street in Tillamook and a $59,450 contract with Praxis Political to promote the campaign for a November bond in support of a new emergency radio system for the county.

Pacific coast gray whales have gotten shorter, OSU study finds

MOLLY ROSBACH

Gray whales that spend their summers feeding in the shallow waters off the Pacific Northwest coast have undergone a significant decline in body length since around the year 2000, a new Oregon State University study found.

The smaller size could have major consequences for the health and reproductive success of the affected whales, and also raises alarm bells about the state of the food

web in which they coexist, researchers say.

“This could be an early warning sign that the abundance of this population is starting to decline, or is not healthy,” said K.C. Bierlich, co-author on the study and an assistant professor at OSU’s Marine Mammal Institute in Newport. “And whales are considered ecosystem sentinels, so if the whale population isn’t doing well, that might say a lot about the environment itself.”

The study, published in Global Change Biology, looks

at the Pacific Coast Feeding Group (PCFG), a small subset of about 200 gray whales within the larger Eastern North Pacific (ENP) population of around 14,500. This subgroup stays closer to shore along the Oregon coast, feeding in shallower, warmer waters than the Arctic seas where the bulk of the gray whale population spends most of the year.

Recent studies from OSU have shown that whales in this subgroup are smaller and in overall worse body condition than their ENP counterparts. The current study reveals that

they’ve been getting smaller in recent decades. The Marine Mammal Institute’s Geospatial Ecology of Marine Megafauna (GEMM) Lab has been studying this subgroup of gray whales since 2016, including flying drones over the whales to measure their size.

Using images from 20162022 of 130 individual whales with known or estimated age, researchers determined that a full-grown gray whale born in 2020 is expected to reach an adult body length that is 1.65 meters (about 5 feet, 5 inches) shorter than a gray whale born prior to 2000. For PCFG gray whales that grow to be 38-41 feet long at full maturity, that accounts for a loss of more than 13% of their total length.

If the same trend were to happen in humans, that would be like the height of the average American woman shrinking from 5 feet, 4 inches to 4 feet, 8 inches tall over the course of 20 years.

“In general, size is critical for animals,” said Enrico Pirotta, lead author on the study and a researcher at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. “It affects their behavior, their physiology, their life history, and it has cascading effects for the animals and for the community they’re a part of.”

Whale calves that are smaller at weaning age may be unable to cope with the uncertainty that comes with being newly independent, which can affect survival rates,

Pirotta said.

For adult gray whales, one of the biggest concerns is reproductive success.

“With them being smaller, there are questions of how effectively these PCFG gray whales can store and allocate energy toward growing and maintaining their health. Importantly, are they able to put enough energy toward reproduction and keep the population growing?” Bierlich said.

Scarring on PCFG whales from boat strikes and fishing gear entanglement also makes the team concerned that smaller body size with lower energy reserves may make the whales less resilient to injuries.

The study also examined the patterns of the ocean environment that likely regulate food availability for these gray whales off the Pacific coast by tracking cycles of “upwelling” and “relaxation” in the ocean. Upwelling sweeps nutrients from deeper to shallower regions, while relaxation periods then allow those nutrients to remain in shallower areas where light allows for growth of plankton and other tiny organisms, including the prey of gray whales.

“Without a balance between upwelling and relaxation, the ecosystem may not be able to produce enough prey to support the large size of these gray whales,” said coauthor Leigh Torres, associate professor and director of the GEMM Lab at OSU.

The data show that whale size declined concurrently with changes in the balance between upwelling and relaxation, Pirotta said.

“We haven’t looked specifically at how climate change is affecting these patterns, but in general we know that climate change is affecting the oceanography of the Northeast Pacific through changes in wind patterns and water temperature,” he said. “And these factors and others affect the dynamics of upwelling and relaxation in the area.”

Now that they know the PCFG gray whales’ body size is declining, researchers say they have a lot of new questions about downstream consequences of that decline and the factors that could be contributing to it.

“We’re heading into our ninth field season studying this PCFG subgroup,” Bierlich said. “This is a powerful dataset that allows us to detect changes in body condition each year, so now we’re examining the environmental drivers of those changes.”

The other co-authors on the paper were Lisa Hildebrand, Clara Bird and Alejandro Ajó at OSU and Leslie New at Ursinus College in Pennsylvania.

Tillamook County meetings roundup

The cities of Rockaway Beach and Bay City, as well as the Tillamook School District approved budgets for fiscal year 2025 at their June meetings.

The Bay City City Council and school board also appointed new members and the Rockaway Beach Council signed a letter of intent with Nuveen Capital signaling their desire to buy the Jetty Creek watershed.

The Tillamook School District’s board of directors adopted a budget of just over $63 million for next fiscal year and approved raises for confidential employees and administrators across the district at their meeting on June 10. The board declined to increase the construction excise tax levied on new buildings

in the district, with members saying that they feared doing so would decrease developers’ desire to build in the area.

The board also made appointments to fill two positions that became open with the recent resignations of Jesse Werner and Kurt Mizee. Ryan Lewis was selected to fill the position being vacated by Werner until June 30, 2025. Jean Christensen was appointed to fill Mizee’s position and will also serve through the end of June next year.

The Bay City City Council adopted a budget of just under $12 million for the upcoming fiscal year and appointed Josh McRae and Justin Howard to serve in open positions on the council on June 11. McRae’s term will

expire in December 2026, while Howard’s will expire at the end of this year. Rockaway Beach’s city council adopted a $26 million budget for fiscal year 2025 at their meeting on June 12. Council also extended their law enforcement agreement with the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office through June 2028 and established an economic stability fund. The council also signed a letter of intent with Nuveen Capital formally declaring their intention to buy the Jetty Creek watershed, whence the city’s drinking water comes. The letter also states Nuveen’s interest in selling. While it is nonbinding, the letter will allow the city to apply for federal grants to support the purchase.

Man drowns in Nehalem River

SUBMITTED BY THE TILLAMOOK COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE

On Thursday, June 6, 2024, TCSO Deputies, Nehalem Bay Fire & Rescue and Tillamook Ambulance were dispatched by Tillamook 911 to a report of a possible drowning on the Nehalem River just downstream from the MiamiFoley bridge.

“There were two adults, a man and a woman, in a

canoe floating down the river when they hit an obstruction, got sideways, and both people were ejected from the boat into the water,” said TCSO Marine Deputy Dennis Greiner.

“The woman started to swim to shore, but when she looked back, the male was face-down in the water not moving. She went back to get him and bring him to shore”

The woman’s cries for help were heard by

residents nearby, who then called 911. Neighbors quickly responded to the scene and began CPR on the man until first responders arrived. Tragically, despite the heroic rescue and resuscitation attempts by the woman, neighbors and first responders, the 49-year-old Nehalem man was pronounced deceased on scene. Our thoughts are with his friends and family.

“It is imperative that PFD’s (personal floatation devices) are readily accessible, but preferably worn and fastened correctly,” said Deputy Greiner. “Even though you might be a lifelong boater or expert swimmer, one never knows what might happen when you hit the water during a boating incident.”

Rainier School District hires Nestucca’s Holloway as superintendent

WILL CHAPPELL Headlight

The Rainier School District has announced Chad Holloway as its new superintendent. Holloway will take the helm from Joseph Hattrick starting July 1. The district made the announcement on Facebook on May 29. The appointment came after a selection process that concluded with three final candidates being

interviewed on May 13 and May 16.

Holloway was a districtlevel administrator for the Nestucca Valley School District in Cloverdale. In the Facebook post to the community, Holloway shared a message. “I am honored to have been selected as the next Superintendent of the Rainier School District. I look forward to working beside each of you, as we strive to make

Rainier School District the best place we can. Thank you for the opportunity to make a lasting difference in our community and the lives of our students,” Holloway said.

Holloway spent more than ten years at Nestucca Valley School District, serving in a variety of roles. He began as a Special Education Teacher in 2014 and finished at the district as Administrator of Facilities and Alterna-

tive Education. According to Holloway’s LinkedIn profile, his responsibilities within the district involved facilities, transportation, program development, personnel supervision, and educational leadership. To aid in their search, the district retained the services of McPherson & Jacobson, L.L.C. The consultants reviewed, screened, and conducted extensive background checks on 17 applicants. The school board made the final decision on the appointment. The district found itself in need of a new superintendent after Hattrick announced he would be leaving the district in February. Hattrick became Rainier Superintendent in 2020. Hattrick decided to leave the district to become superintendent of Ashland School District but said that serving Rainier was an “enormous honor.”

Tillamook County Wellness: Why cancer screening is important

Cancer screening can seem

really scary, time consuming, like a waste of time, or a host of other things that it doesn’t have to be! It’s sometimes uncomfortable, stressful, and anxiety-inducing until you get those negative results. Nevertheless, cancer screening saves lives! Increased cancer screening, along with fewer people smoking and

improved cancer treatments, have contributed to preventing about 3.2 million cancer deaths from 1991-2018 (American Cancer Society, 2021). The American Cancer Society (ACS) recommends screenings for breast, cervical, colorectal, lung, and prostate cancers. Early detection of these cancers can substantially improve a patient’s chances at entering remission and having less intense treatment. There are things we can do for our bodies to naturally

decrease our cancer risks, though anyone can get cancer. The ACS has several recommendations aimed at reducing cancer risks:

• Stay away from tobacco

• Get to and stay at a healthy weight

• Get moving with regular physical activity

• Eat healthy with plenty of fruits and vegetables

• Eliminate alcohol consumption. If you do consume alcohol, have no more than 1

drink per day for women or 2 per day for men.

• Protect your skin (i.e. SPF, UV protectant clothing, etc.)

• Know yourself, your family history, and your risks

• Get regular check-ups and cancer screening tests

Following these recommendations and participating in the recommended screenings at the appropriate ages can substantially reduce your risk of serious cancer illness and even death. Even the ‘healthiest’ person may develop cancer, so it is important to follow screening guidelines.

Barbara Klein, a 60-year-old school bus driver ignored recommendations for screenings like many Americans, until a 40-year-old friend was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. This shocked her, but motivated Barbara to order Cologuard to check her colon health at home. Presuming she was in good health with nothing to worry about, the call that something abnormal was found in her colon shocked her further. Barbara was eventually diagnosed with stage 1 colon cancer, promptly underwent surgery, and as of June 2022, had been cancer-free for 5 years (Klein, 2022).

Barbara’s story started with devastating news of a friend, but yours doesn’t have to. Keep up with your own cancer screenings to reduce your risks of advancing cancer. Contact your primary care provider if you have concerning symptoms or are overdue for a cancer screening. Knowledge can be one of the best prescriptions for cancer risk reduction!

the winter months, but that rain alone would not impede their work, only waves overtopping the jetty or winds exceeding safety limits.

In addition to repairing the two sections of the jetty, the $52.7-million project will see the jetty’s head re-established with a 40-foot width at the end. All areas around the worksite will also be restored to their pre-project state, including the removal of the one-mile section of road.

Leavitt said that the team was doing what it could to minimize the impacts of the project on locals and to leave the community better than they found it. To that end, workers have performed maintenance and upgrades at the Tillamook Elks RV

Campground, where they are staying.

Contractors are also monitoring a population of western snowy plovers that have a nesting site near the 10-acre staging area that was cleared near the end of the jetty. In

addition to installing stakes to discourage the birds from taking up residence in the active construction area, workers are also driving around the site daily to check for their presence. Access to the work site is restricted to authorized personnel. Although there are no barriers to entry, the contractors said that so far, a public outreach campaign including signage at the Bayocean County Park parking area has kept most people from wandering through. They stressed that as the large stones start moving it will be critical that members of the public give the workers a wide berth in the bay and on the beach.

The United States Army Corps of Engineers is managing all aspects of the project and responsible for ensuring Trade West’s compliance with safety, quality, environmental, schedule and cost provisions in its contract. The project is being funded by the Infrastructure and Jobs Act of 2021 and aims to restore the jetty’s functionality to maintain the navigability of the entrance to Tillamook Bay.

on levies, like the five-year one that voters in Nestucca approved last year. “If it wasn’t like that, there would be calls that we couldn’t handle,” Oeder said of the levy.

While specific proposals have not yet been advanced, Oeder said that he has had discussions with State Senator Suzanne Weber, who represents Tillamook County, and is optimistic that supportive legislators

will be able to deliver help in next year’s long session.

“We have quite a few senators and representatives very supportive for the fire service,” Oeder said, “and so there’s going to be a number of things that we’re able to look at.”

The other major issue that Oeder said he will be focusing his attention on is proposed updates to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s rules governing fire services. The proposed rules update is currently in a public comment period which has been extended twice and contains provisions that Oeder said would put an undue strain on services.

As an example, Oeder

mentioned a proposed rule that would require departments to check each of their self-contained beathing apparatuses daily. Especially in small services with multiple stations, like Nestucca, this would require copious staff time, hampering operations.

“My full-time crew with six fire stations, they would have to go to each one of those every single day of the week and I’m not gonna get anything else done with them,” Oeder said.

Oeder said that he had discussed the rules with federal legislators while he was in Washington D.C. in May and that he was hopeful the final rule update would be revised to reflect firefighters’ concerns.

The pile of stones accumulated at the Port of Garibaldi during May and early June before transport to the worksite began.

FENCEPOSTS

The June 12 meeting of Rockaway Beach City Council included passage of a number of resolutions, but the highlight for many was the selection of the Grand Marshal and Volunteer of the Year for the Fourth of July parade.

Bill Hassell of the Planning Commission was selected as Grand Marshal. Of particular note in many of the nominations were Bill’s work on the Old Growth Cedar Trail, his championing of ADA accessibility throughout the city, and his leadership and fairness.

Ronnie Duckworth’s selection as Volunteer of the Year was also accompanied by praise from many residents. They called out his work with Meals for Seniors, mowing lawns for community members who can’t, his work with feral and injured animals and much more.

Significant resolutions included passing a budget for the next fiscal year and amending the intergovernmental agreement with the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office. Resolution 202430 ensures that TCSO will continue to provide locally centered law enforcement services through June 2028. This includes a local satellite office where deputies can file reports and other administrative duties without requiring a round trip to Tillamook.

Resolution 2024-32 approved a Letter of Intent and non-disclosure agreement with Nuveen Natural Capital to pursue the purchase of the lower portion of the Jetty Creek watershed.

Daniel Wear of Sustainable Northwest gave a remote presentation on this issue.

Daniel explained that this step makes Rockaway Beach eligible for several state and federal grants to fund the acquisition, including the Forest Legacy Program

Mayor Charles McNeilly called this “a monumental step in an important direction.” He went on to thank Nancy Webster of North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection “for priming the pump” on community awareness.

Resolutions 2024-34, 35, and 36 ensured reserve funds for the city and declared the city’s election to receive state revenues. Mayor McNeilly explained that the reserve funds are intended to compensate for possible downturns in tourist income, and that the funds could only be appropriated by city council. State revenues of approximately $28,000 will be used to fund our community grants.

Resolution 2024-33 gives City Manager Luke Shepard authority to acquire the Granicus software package for management and tracking of short-term rental (STR) businesses. Granicus has been in use by Tillamook County for some time and has helped them recover revenue that had not been accounted for previously. It simplifies the process of renewal and registration of STR licenses. It also centralizes and streamlines the complaint process in the event of noise or other problems that affect residents. Granicus includes a complaint hotline that runs 24/7. This number (which I

The Salmonberry Trail project, which I covered extensively during initial discussions in 2023, has now entered the design phase. Councilor McGinniss will lead two walks along one of the proposed sections of the trail on Saturday, June 29 and Sunday, June 30. The walks will accompany discussion on some of the proposals and issues around the trail’s construction. For details, call City Hall at (503) 374-1752 or email at cityhall@corb.us.

On June 22, North Coast Communities for Watershed Protection will hold the first of an international seminar series titled “Deciduous Heroes.” Speakers James Steidle, Deke Gundersen, and Ryan Branstetter will speak on the importance of removing pesticides from forests and watersheds, and on the importance of biodiversity to the healthy recovery of forests damaged by decades of clearcutting.

This talk will be held at St. Mary by the Sea, 275 S Pacific, from 2 -3:30 p.m. on June 22. Future talks from British Columbia, Canada will be held on June 27 and July 3 and will be available on Zoom. Contact rockawaycitizen.water@gmail.com for more information.

2024, when another angel stopped by my office, name of Nick Mobley- with my wallet in hand, and most of its contents inside; he said he tried to pick up as much as he could. He said, as angels do, that he would not accept any reward for his efforts. Nick, please know that I have been advised by higher ups that two gold stars have been added after your name in the great scoreboard in heaven.

C ape Meares grandparents Randy and Spike Klobas are extremely proud of granddaughter Kate Klobas: She graduated as the salutatorian of the Tillamook High School Class of 2024. The salutatorian is the student with the second highest rank in a graduating class who delivers the salutatory address at the commencement exercises. Kate has been awarded several scholarships and will be off to study at Western Oregon State University this fall. Congrats to Kate and her supportive family. Also, a shout-out to Spike for mowing the grass around the benches at the end of Pacific Avenue, overlooking the beach. Hope the summer visitors appreciate the nice landscaping. Shortly after 6 a.m. on a recent foggy morning, our boat passed fishing regular Tim Buongiorno after he had just caught a spring Chinook. But the fish was still in the net, hanging over the side of the boat. “A native?”

I called over, knowing he would have to release the fish if that were the case.

“Missing half a fin!” he called back.

“Keep it,” I shouted, “it’s a misclip.” Tim must have agreed, as he lifted the fish into the boat.

Verifying on the internet when home, I found that fish with clearly misclipped fins are legal to keep. However, the final authority is the checking Oregon State Police officer who has the discretion to cite, warn, or interpret as a clip.

Proposed fall salmon regulations have been released. For the Tillamook basin, the proposed 2024 regs are simi-

Thank you Tillamook County fire fighters

My husband and I have been mired during the winter in insurance requirements after our shop burned to the ground last summer. At the first sight of flames we dialed 911. Tim Carpenter, the Chief then, was there so fast you would think he lived next door, and the Netarts-Oceanside fire crew followed almost immediately thereafter. They were efficient and incredibly well trained. We live in a wooded area. Our property houses a forest with some old growth trees among other huge ones. Tillamook firemen arrived also and Garabaldi

had a drone overhead. The flames were huge. These fantastic men and women kept the fire becoming a forest fire, saved our home and, thankfully, kept it from spreading to our neighbors property. My husband lost his tools from decades long work as a millwright and electrician, his tractor and riding mower, compressor, etc. I am an artist and lost six large paintings, a number of frames, all my accumulated Christmas decorations including ornaments made by my children and grandchildren. All the paraphernalia from my childrens early years through high school. But thanks to our fire department we did not lose our house, which stood only 50 feet away. The crew also worked after the fact sorting the debris enough to be sure they missed nothing and left a huge hose in case of further flames igniting overnight. None did. They were truly amazing. I can never thank them all enough. A stellar department of brave and thorough members. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Representatives from the city, Port of Garibaldi and Bay City will be a part of the two interviewing committees.

It’s a smart move.

The second notable, and wonderfully intense element is that all the candidates will be going through the interview with both committees on the same day. One long day.

For Grammy and Auntie Finn Finn (Katie), it’ll be first time the grandkids are all together. Queue up the photo app on the camera. And everything else that makes Garibaldi a quiet place to live.

Art’s greatest joy came from his family. He was a pillar of strength and wisdom, offering unwavering support and sage advice to his children and grandchildren. To them, he was not just a father or grandfather, he was their rock and clos-

fixing things. Charlie was a movie buff and also enjoyed music and cars. Charlie loved the outdoors and after retirement from Deluxe Ice Cream, he enjoyed life in the Pine Hollow Tygh Valley, Oregon area.

Charlie is preceded in death by his grandparents, Joseph F. Ruede, Rosa Ella

Statewide transportation tour coming to Tillamook June 18

Oregon lawmakers are coming to Tillamook on Tuesday, June 18 for their next stop on the legislature’s Statewide Transportation Safety and Sustainability Outreach Tour. The goal of the tour is to help build public understanding around the challenges Oregon faces in maintaining a safe, accessible, and reliable transportation system.

Transportation agencies across the state, including ODOT, are facing structural funding challenges that impact their ability to deliver core services. State leaders are looking to fix that, and this tour is laying the roadmap.

Legislators will start the day in Tillamook with a tour of the area highlighting the challenges agencies face in maintaining the transportation system and providing customer service to residents.

For instance, this heavily forested coastal area often experiences heavy rains that lead to rock and mud slides, highway sinkholes and flooding.

Providing DMV services in rural areas like Tillamook also presents unique challenges. ODOT has just four offices and 11 employees between Newport, Tillamook, Lincoln City and Astoria that serve more than 90,000 customers a year. At times, Lincoln City and Tillamook must operate with only one employee.

Oregon legislators and the governor are working together, along with ODOT and other transportation agencies, to identify sustainable funding solutions so that Oregonians can continue to receive essential maintenance and safety services.

The public and media are encouraged to join the conversation about Oregon’s transportation system by attending a public hearing Tuesday evening from 5 –7 p.m. Find details on the agenda here: Transportation Joint 2023-2024 Interim - Oregon

Bluey & Springer

He will snuggle in the crook of

neck and just be with you for a long

In addition to being a calm, loving cat, he is also a serious caretaker and makes sure all the other kittens in his foster home, about 8 of them, are taken care of. You could call Springer an “old soul” because he is so calm, accepting & loving of others. Springer will bond with his humans, whether it’s a family with children who are gentle, or with an older single person looking for a special bond with a cat.

Bluey is a cuddler and he can be playful, too. He’s a handsome tabby with tan & dark gray markings who will melt your heart when he looks at you with his big bright eyes. After running and playing for a while, Bluey is happy to settle into your lap for a movie, content to just hang with you.

Springer & Bluey are well socialized and will bond with their humans. They even sleep in their fosters’ bed at night, along with several other kittens, and are used to a lot of interaction. They both eat wet food, along with a little crunchies, and they are good with a cat box,. Springer & Bluey are neutered, vaccinated, chipped, and content—just waiting for their special homes. Interested? Fill out an adoption form below or message United Paws through Facebook, or call (503) 842-5663. https://unitedpaws.wordpress.com/online-adoption-application/
