The VRDs have been the center of debate for several years in Lincoln City. Over the past year, the Council has been reviewing pro-

posed VRD regulations to balance public safety and economic growth.

The new regulations include increased City inspections of the VRD’s to ensure public safety. Currently, the City only inspects the VRDs for smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The proposed regulations also include a Yes/No zone clarifying where a VRD can and cannot be located in

Michelle Branam took the Oath of Office from Judge Sheryl Bachart Jan. 31 during a ceremony at the Lincoln County Courthouse.

Lincoln City Police have arrested two suspects in what detectives are calling a gift card scam against merchants in Lincoln County.

On Jan. 30, officers were called to the Tanger Factory Outlet Center about a suspicious person.

The suspect had attempted to purchase merchandise using a fraudulent Visa gift card, according to Det. Bud Lane.

“The store clerk declined the card and the suspect tried to have the clerk run the card numbers manually, but the clerk refused,” said Lane.

“The store manager was alert enough to call police.”

As officers were interviewing the suspect, Donovan Stief, 27, of North Dakota, Lane said clerks from other stores at the Center approached police to say the suspect had attempted or had used the gift cards at their stores.

During the investi-

Lincoln City Police have arrested two people, believed to be ringleaders, in a gift card scam. gation, police located another person associated with Stief, Samantha Rautanen, 28, of Arizona, and a vehicle the two were believed to be operating.

“We discovered more evidence of the crime, including a number of fraudulent gift cards and hundreds of stolen credit card numbers,” said Lane.

During the same time, Police in Beaverton arrested two other people on

drug charges connected to Stief and Rautanen.

“We have reason to believe there was a ring of these suspects using the fraudulent gift cards,” said Lane. “But now we have caught the ring leaders.”

At least four stores in Lincoln City and four stores in Newport were victims of the fraudulent gift card scam, according See SCAM, Page A8

Tillamook County Transit has targeted the first week of March to launch a pilot program extending public bus service from Lincoln City to Salem, McMinnville and the Portland area.

The Salmon River Connector is an 18-month demonstration project coordinated through the Northwest Oregon Transit Alliance North by Northwest Connector program partnership with Lincoln, Tillamook, Clatsop, Clackamas and Benton counties.

“We had vehicles and drivers available to do this and we were able to get this started very quickly,” said Tillamook County Transportation District General Manager Doug Pilant.

“We have heard a lot of demand for bus service to the Willamette Valley from Lincoln City,” said Lincoln County Transit Program

Rock slide blocks road JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

Huge boulders and dirt blocked Slick Rock Creek Road early Tuesday morning, Feb. 4, following a landside.

“This is typical for this area,” said Steve Hodge, Lincoln County Public Works assistant director.

“It is a near vertical face and the road hugs that hill.”

Hodge said landslides are not uncommon along Slick Rock Creek Road and other areas throughout Lincoln County due to the geology of the Coast and winter rains that soak the ground, making it unstable along hillsides.

The slide occurred about a quarter mile east of Highway 18 in the Rose Lodge area.

“We brought in our crews and equipment and move what debris off the road that we could,” said Hodge.

The County depends on private contractors with larger equipment to come in to break up and haul away the larger boulders.

“There really isn’t an engineering solution that we could afford to prevent these slides,” said Hodge.

No homes were threatened and there were no injuries during the slide.

Hodge recommends that motorists pay attention and be cautious when driving along hillsides during the winter.

“When driving all rural roads, people need to be aware during the winter,” he said. “The slides are an ongoing issue. They are something we gear up for each winter.”

Fish on wall used as school teaching tool Patience and staying inside the lines, were two lessons learned by third graders at Taft Elementary School last week. The students got hands-on experience in painting a mural along the wall inside the front entrance of the school building.

Lifecycle in the Sand is the theme of the Taft mural and it is linked to the students’ studies about fish.

Reina Zehen, 9, called the mural very colorful.

“It is really cool,” she said. “We are painting the story about salmon.”

Lauryn Beckley, 8, was ready to try her hand at painting fish on the mural.

“I think this will be very nice when it is finished,” she said. “We are learning lots about fish.”

Travis Czekalski and Jon Stommel, Portland mural artists and children’s book illustrators, helped guide the students in painting fish along the wall inside the front entrance of the school building.

Taft Principal Chris Sullivan said he liked the work Czekalski and Stommel did at a school in Portland and hired them to help paint the mural.

“The direction of the mural flows from left to right with spawning salmon with older fish moving throughout the mural going through each stage of the salmon’s life,” said Czekalski. “At the right side of the mural is the ocean where the salmon spend most of their life.”

Czekalski said the mural fits into the third-grade studies.

“The students participate in raising young salmon and releasing them into the wild, so this is a really good way to teach them about the lifecycle and have them take part in it,” said Czekalski. “It is something that they will learn in third grade, but beyond that they will see it for the rest of the time they are in the school, and, hopefully, remember what they’ve learned and keep that with them for the rest of their lives.”

Czekalski said it was the first time the two artists have had the opportunity to paint directly with children.

“It is an awesome experience to work with the kids,” he said. “They have been really easy to work with.”

Third-grade teacher Susan Roper said the enthusiasm over the project is spreading.

“We talked as a class about learning about salmon, but also about students teaching other children about the future of the fish,” she said. “So, they are excited about learning

lots about fish.

-Lauryn Beckley, Taft Elementary third grader about the habitat and the different stages of the salmon’s lifecycle.”

Sullivan said the $1,000 cost for the mural was funded through a summer community benefit concert to support the arts.

“The artists with this project are doing this for very little cost,” said Sullivan.

“Chinook Winds Casino Resort has put them up and fed them for the past week, so this is a pretty good deal.

Everyone took a little piece of this, saying it is important for the kids.”

Sullivan said the mural would be a year-by-year learning tool for all the students.

“It is hard to forget what you’ve learned if you see it every day,” he said. “The teachers are excited that we have a built-in tool to help teach the kids.”

Sewer rate payers could help fund Nelscott Gap utility relocations Lincoln City sewer customers could see up to a 6 percent rate boost to help fund a utility relocation project at Nelscott Gap and construct other City projects, according to City officials.

“We think that the adjustments to fund this will result in a little higher rate increase than we would have otherwise expected,” Lincoln City City Manager David Hawker said.

“But we are still working through that,” Hawker said the rate adjustments would be determined during the upcoming City budget process. Hawker made the comments following a special City Council meeting, Monday afternoon, Feb. 3, to determine the funding for the Nelscott Gap utility relocations.

During that meeting, the Lincoln City City Council authorized the City’s public works department to send out an intent to award notice to K and E Excavating of Salem for a $688,530.75 contract to relocate and install the sewer and water lines.

The Council also authorized a contact for $127,462 to Consolidate Supply to purchase the

new water pipes as part of the Nelscott project.

The Oregon Department of Transportation this month will also be awarding a contract to have its portion of the utilities moved, according to City officials.

During a workshop before the Monday Council meeting, Hawker and the public works staff briefed the City councilors on funding options for the relocation projects.

Hawker said the total cost for the City’s portion of the relocation project is about $1.7 million.

“We’re going to ask the Council for authority to sell bonds to do the water project portion of the relocation and sev-

eral other projects,” said Hawker. “With the sewer, we’ll borrow from another fund and repay that over the next few years.”

Hawker said financing the relocation has been a challenge.

“Because it is costing a lot more money than we expected a year ago,” he said. “There is more work to do than we expected.”

Construction on the $17.5 million Nelscott Gap Improvement Project will likely begin in April.

The work is designed to improve the safety and operation of the Nelscott Gap along Highway 101 in south Lincoln City and will include a center turn lane, sidewalks, ramps for the disabled, pedestrian and bicycle lanes and a signal at 32nd Street.

A pedestrian activated crosswalk with a rapid flashing light, drainage and landscaping will also be installed.

Nelscott business operators and residents will have the opportunity to see maps and other details about the project at a meeting with Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) officials at 1 p.m. Feb. 14 at Lincoln City City Hall.

A flood of thanks and support We would like to thank everyone who supported us during the recent disaster, which befell us when the culvert became plugged and our parking lot and lodge were flooded.

We were forced to close down and vacate the

building for a period of time. This did not keep us from filling and delivering 156 food baskets and toys to families to South Lincoln City.

However, it did keep us from having our annual Christmas Basket fundraiser. We are planning our Christmas Basket Auction and Dinner, after the fact, on Feb. 14 at our newly opened lodge. We invite you all to attend and we thank all of our contributors. Your support during this difficult time will be long remembered and appreciated.

Congress is working on a bill that would stall flood insurance rate increases.

PHOTO COURTESY

Flood insurance rate increase delay moves ahead in Congress Property owners along the Oregon Coast could see relief from skyrocketing flood insurance rates under Homeowners Flood Insurance Affordability Act, S. 1926, which passed the U.S. Senate Jan. 30.

U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley and 27 other senators introduced the bill last fall.

Merkley called the act “a very important fix to halt the damage the Biggert-Waters Act is doing to middle-class families.”

Fixing the U.S. government’s flood insurance program, which was billions of dollars in debt, was a “laudable goal,” Merkley said, but BiggertWaters “has done it in way that’s caused a huge effect on the market.”

Every $1,000 in premium increases, Merkley claimed, devalued a home by $20,000.

“A lot is wrong when families are worried more about flood insurance than they are about floods,” he said.

Flood insurance hikes “are one of the top issues that comes up in town hall meetings,” Sen. Ron Wyden said. “A lot of folks are walking an economic tightrope and the escalating premiums are resulting in Americans being priced out of their homes.”

Wyden described the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s “remapping” process, that’s putting people in flood zones who were never there before, as “a bureaucratic never-never land.”

S.1926 proposes to delay flood insurance premium increases for two years, giving FEMA eight months to do an affordability study (one was mandated by the BiggertWaters Act, too, but FEMA never conducted the study) and giving Congress another six months to review the results.

The delay applies to homes and businesses that were built to code but subsequently “re-mapped” into higher-risk zones, and to those sold after July 6, 2012. The latter group is being forced to pay “market rate” flood insurance premiums immediately, rather than having increases phased in over a number of years, Wyden said.

Merkley said the bill also removes what he called a “Catch-22” in current regulations, that forces property owners appealing flood zone inclu-

A Verizon Wireless store opened Thursday, Jan. 30, in Lincoln City. Hannah Lamb is a sixyear local resident who will oversee operations of the Verizon store at 4095 N.W. Logan Road, Suite A. The premium retailer dealer, one of 500 in the United States, will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony during its grand opening, Feb. 21-24. Opened for business in the northwest corner of the Safeway shopping center, the store will be an active member of the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce, Lamb said.

sions to do so at their own expense. S.1926 would allow homeowners who successfully appeal to get reimbursed.

An amendment to the bill proposed by Merkley limits the practice of “force-placed” insurance, where a property owner is told they have to purchase flood insurance (after a “re-mapping,” for instance) and doesn’t do so fast enough.

“Force-placed policies are very good for insurers and very bad for families,” Merkley said. “They’re many times the fair market rate for policies, and can drive folks into foreclosure.”

The flood-insurance bill still has to be acted upon by the U.S. House of Representatives. There is a companion bill that was introduced in the House at the same time Merkley’s bill was introduced in the Senate. Rep. Kurt Schrader is one of the sponsors. A date for House action has yet to be determined.

Student flu immunization deadline nears OCCC to help further students’ education The Oregon Immunization Program alerts parents that children will not be able to attend school or childcare starting Feb. 19 if their records indicate missing immunizations.

State law requires that all children in public and private schools, preschools, Head Start, and certified childcare facilities have up-to-date documentation on their immunizations, or have a religious or medical exemption.

“Immunization is an effective way to keep schools and the entire community healthy,” said Stacy de Assis Matthews, school law coordinator in the Oregon Health Authority Public Health Division. “We want to make sure children are fully protected against vaccine-preventable diseases such as whooping cough.”

What parents need to know about updated vaccine requirements: – Parents of adolescents should be aware that one dose of Tdap vaccine is required for sevenththrough 12th-graders. Tdap is a tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough) booster.

– The hepatitis A vaccine, which protects against a communicable viral infection, is a two-dose series required for children 18 months and older in childcare, preschool and kindergarten through fifth grade.

COURTESY PHOTO

Oregon’s immunization deadline is Feb. 19. Beginning that day, students without proper immunizations will not be allowed in school or at daycare centers.

Immunization Information 1-800-SAFENET 1-800-723-3638 If school and childcare vaccination records are not current, the child will be sent home. In 2013, local health departments sent 30,501 letters to parents and guardians informing them that their children needed immunizations to stay in school or childcare. A total of 4,188 children were kept out of school or childcare until the necessary immunization information was turned in to the schools or childcare facilities.

Parents seeking immunizations for their children

should contact their healthcare provider or local health department, or call Oregon SafeNet at 1-800-SAFENET or 1-800-723-3638.

No one can be turned away from a local health department because of the inability to pay for required vaccines. Pharmacists can immunize children 11 and older. Parents should contact their neighborhood pharmacy for details.

Additional information on school immunizations can be found at the Immunization Program website at www.healthoregon.org/ imm. Follow the Oregon Immunization Program on Facebook at www.facebook. com/OregonImmunize and Twitter at twitter.com/OregonImmunize.

Oregon Coast Community College will host various institutions in helping assist student transition to a four-year college or university.

Representatives from Oregon schools will be on the Newport campus from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Feb. 11 to provide information at College Transfer Days.

Representatives will be on hand to assist students and community members throughout Lincoln County with transfer planning, or will aid individuals who might enroll directly in a four-year school.

Pacific University (Forest Grove), University of Oregon (Eugene), University of Portland (Portland), Southern Oregon University (Ashland), Oregon State University-Cascades

College Transfer Day

• 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Feb. 11 • OCCC Newport Campus 499 S.E. College Way • 541-265-2283 (Bend), Oregon State University (Corvallis), Linfield College (McMinnville), Eastern Oregon University (La Grande), University of Western States (Portland) and Oregon Institute of Technology (Klamath Falls) have signed up for the event.

The goal is to help students understand and prepare for the next step in college. Students can learn what each college offers, what the admissions

requirements are, how to choose courses wisely, and how to navigate college costs and financial aid so that their transition is as seamless as possible.

At Oregon’s public universities, the numbers of community college students transferring increased by 70 percent in the last 10 years. In 2011-2012, community college transfer students numbered 7,065 at Oregon public universities.

The increase is attributed to several factors, including co-enrollment and articulation agreements between community colleges and universities and the creation of options such as the Oregon Transfer Module, which enable students to ensure that their credits will apply at a four-year institution.

AARP offers free tax assistance AARP Foundation is again providing free tax assistance and preparation for taxpayers with low to moderate income through the AARP Foundation Tax-Aide program. AARP Foundation Tax-Aide, in its 46th year, is the nation’s largest free tax assistance and preparation service, giving special attention the older population.

You do not need to be a member of AARP or a retiree to use this service.

Last year in Oregon, nearly 1,200 AARP Founda-

tion Tax-Aide volunteers helped more than 84,000 Oregonians file more than 55,000 federal and state tax returns recovering close to $56 million in income tax refunds and more than $1.6 million in Earned Income Tax credits.

The program is offered at approximately 140 sites in Oregon including senior centers, libraries and other convenient locations.

In 2013, AARP Foundation Tax-Aide’s 35,000 volunteers at nearly 6,000 sites provided more than 2.6 million people

with free tax help. Taxpayers who used AARP Foundation Tax-Aide received $1.3 billion in income tax refunds and more than $244 million in Earned Income Tax credits.

City Rejects its own VRD Consultant’s Recommendations City Proposals: Criminally Prosecute VRD Owners, Send VRD Guests To Other Cities, Cut VRD Tax Revenues Over 2 years ago, Mayor Anderson and the City Council tried a new approach to resolve their concerns about vacation rentals in the area. The city spent $50,000 on a consultant that was hired to gather community members with differing opinions, and develop a consensus about the role of vacation rentals in Lincoln City. City officials promised to use the recommendations to guide them in making changes to current VRD laws. A Consensus Group was formed.

City Officials Ignore Recommendations from Local Residents The list of recommendations represents trade-offs for many group members, and group members pointed out that they would not have agreed to the list if the city was going to cherry pick which ones to implement.

Now officials are dumping the consultant’s recommendations and proposing new rules that will cut VRD tourism by up to 80%, reduce tax revenues and jobs, and hurt local businesses. Why are we throwing away the $50,000 and the effort that local residents put into finding a compromise?

The city has picked up strongly on only one of the group’s recommendations – that new restrictions should be imposed on where VRDs can be operated. Other recommendations are being largely ignored and strict new VRD restrictions are being proposed that directly contradict the group’s recommendations. The city has drafted 3 separate ordinances that include these suggested rules:

The Consensus Group Idea Worked!

 The current practice of allowing VRD owners to rent their home as much as they like will be discontinued.

Group members included those strongly in favor of VRDs and those firmly opposed to VRDs, but everyone agreed that it was time to put controversy about VRDs to bed. Nine meetings took place over six months, each 4 hours long and attended by about 75 people. Residents and business owners testified at length about VRDs at every meeting.



Strict new limits will be placed on how often guests can stay in a VRD – a limit of as few as 30 days per year is proposed, even though many VRDs currently bring guests to the city for up to 240 days per year and such a restriction could reduce VRD tourism for the city by up to 80%.

VRD owners won’t be able to own more than one VRD like they can in other cities, and when a VRD is sold the new owner can not buy it with certainty that they will be able to continue to operate it as a VRD. New building and safety standards would be imposed, despite the fact that there have been no significant safety incidents at VRDs. Current rules that don’t allow VRD guests to park in certain legal parking areas would continue.

New occupancy limits would be imposed even though the group proposed that the VRD rules should just comply with state standards concerning occupancy.

New insurance requirements would be imposed, even though no one testified that inadequate insurance was a problem at city VRDs. VRDs would continue to have revocable licenses instead of just being registered. Tourists would continue to be unsure if their reservation would be good when they request a house for the following year.

Group members and those attending report that the process was a positive one. Lincoln City residents worked long hours to resolve long standing, polarizing issues. Compromises were made.



Important themes emerged from the discussions.  Tourists who come to stay in the city’s VRDs support property values, increase tax revenues, support local businesses and create jobs. They are essential to the local economy.  Most VRD guests would go to another city if Lincoln City limits the availability of area VRDs.  VRDs should be welcomed, at least in certain areas of the city.  Impractical and unenforceable provisions in current regulations should be eliminated.  Arguing over whether VRDs are commercial businesses or just residential rental homes with a shorter rental period just creates divisions in the community.  Parking, garbage, noise and crime problems happen at all types of homes in the city, and city can not justify targeting VRD owners with special rules and requirements.  Regulations must be simple and fair, and should not disrupt tourism or destroy property rights.

 

Group Recommendations to City Officials

Residents that formed the Consensus Group felt that it was time to put controversy behind us, base new regulations on actual demonstrated facts, and partner with VRDs to solve problems and get the most economic benefit from the activity they generate.

A year later the group’s Consultant submitted a 72 page report to the city with 20 recommendations for a law that would replace current VRD laws. Here is a summary: 1) The city should define zones where VRDs are allowed (“Yes” zones), and zones where new VRDs are not allowed (“No” zones).

2) Cluster VRDs where they make the most economic sense.

3) The group presented a suggested map showing where VRDs would be welcomed, including many areas west of Hwy 101.

4) Existing VRDs in “No” zones could continue operating until ownership changed.

5) If a VRD owner in a “No” zone died, the VRD could continue to operate for 12 months so guests would not lose their reservation and go somewhere else.

6) A 24 hour complaint line should be established to handle VRD code enforcement issues.

7) Fines and criminal complaints should be directed to the offender, not only the owner. For example, if a guest was noisy, the guest would be fined or arrested, not the owner.

8) The city should create and maintain a “Best Practices Guide for VRDs”, like other cities do.

9) Maximum Occupancy for VRDs should be defined using existing state health and safety standards that apply to all homes.

10) Illegal VRDS (those that are unregistered or not paying taxes) should pay substantial fines.

11) Existing regulations concerning on-site parking would be continued.

12) VRDs should be subject to the same landscaping rules that apply to new buildings being constructed, not a special set of strict requirements that don’t apply to other rentals or homes.

13) VRD owners must ensure that garbage is handled properly, and can be fined if it is not.

14) Noisy guests in VRDs would be treated the same way that such guests would be treated in a hotel or a resident’s home. Enforcement would be directed at the guest, not the VRD owner.

15) The city could penalize VRDs through fines or temporary suspension of the right to operate, but would no longer be able to permanently revoke the right to operate in a Yes zone.

16) City parking options need improvement for everyone. Special restrictions on public parking

by VRD guests make no sense and should be eliminated.

17) When new VRDs are constructed, the city’s design review process should ensure the house fits into the character of the neighborhood, and has no negative impacts on nearby residents.

18) Enforcement of parking, landscaping and other rules should be consistent and even-handed.

19) VRD owners would register once with the city, pay TRT taxes, and be inspected, but would no longer be licensed and subject to license revocation on an annual basis.

20) VRD owners could operate more than one property in the city, like in other cities.

Police step up driving enforcement program JEREMY C. RUARK jruark@countrymedia.net

Distracted driving continues to pose a danger on Oregon roadways and across the nation. While it is illegal to use a handheld mobile communications device, Oregon drivers continue to do so, police said.

Officers said drivers increase their chances of getting into a crash when they divert their attention to another activity. Text messaging creates a crash risk 23 times higher than driving while not distracted, according to a news release from The Newport Police Department.

During a stepped up enforcement program Feb. 10 to Feb. 23, Newport Police will join with other law enforcement agencies across the state watching for drivers violating the distracted driving laws, speeding, not wearing seat belts or child restraint devices.

Newport Police are joining a statewide traffic enforcement effort this month.

FAST FACT • Text messaging creates a crash risk 23 times higher than driving while not distracted.

- Newport Police Department regarding the three most prevalent factors contributing to traffic crash injuries: safety restraint use, speed, and impaired drivers.

Since passage of the

• $160 while using a mobile communication device while driving • $160 no safety belt or child restraint • $97 and up depending on the speed adult safety belt law in 1990, statewide crash fatality and injury rates have dropped 59 percent and 37 percent, respectively. The law, combined with active enforcement, has resulted in a 2013 Oregon seatbelt use rate of 98 percent for all occupants. Oregon is one of the top two seatbelt-use states in the country.

The Newport Police Department, along with the Oregon Department of Transportation, encourages all drivers and passengers to make a concerted effort to use their seatbelt, drive responsibly, be aware of speed limits, stow electronic devices and stay alert.

“We will now decide whether to retry the case or dismiss the case,” Lincoln County District Attorney Michelle Branam said.

Swanson, 42, had been on a walk from Seattle to Brazil to attend the World Cup soccer tournament. He was walking southbound along Highway 101 in Cutler City when he was struck from behind by a pickup truck driven

by Hiatt.

Hiatt was arrested June 17 following a police investigation of the crash.

VRD From page A1

local neighborhoods.

City staff has developed two other alternative ordinances in response to the VRD Consensus Committee, a group of citizens who looked at concerns and solutions to the VRDs. The first alternative amends the City’s zoning ordinance and creates two new overlay zones.

The first is the exclusive residential overlay zone, which would prohibit VRDs and Bed and Breakfasts. It would be similar to the No Zone. There would also be a vacation rental Overlay Zone (both of the zones would apply in the single family residential zone). VRDs would be allowed similar to the Yes Zone.

The Planning Commission held the first public hearing to review the proposals on Jan. 6. But dur-

ing that hearing and since, City officials say public confusion, uncertainty and misunderstanding has surfaced concerning the City’s efforts.

“Yes, the main misunderstanding appears to be about the 30-day limitations on VRDs,” said Richard Townsend, Lincoln City Community Development director.

According to Townsend, there are two mutually exclusive proposals: one based on the consensus committee recommendations and the other at the request of the City Council.

“The second one includes the 30-day maximum use of the VRD as an accessory use,” said Townsend. “The Council can chose one or the other or neither or some combination.”

The Council could chose to adopt the Yes and No zones as proposed by the Consensus Committee and allow VRDs as an accessory use for some

limited number of days in the No zones, Townsend said.

“The 30 day thing is what’s got everyone’s attention,” said Townsend.

“What no one has paid attention to in the packet of material to the Planning Commission and the Council is an interpretation from me that says, in my opinion, to be an accessory use, a VRD can’t be used for more than 45 days a year. The City Attorney has put in the 30-day period. There is universal agreement that to be an accessory use you could not use a dwelling as a VRD for more than 180 days per year.

The Consensus Committee’s proposal does away with the accessory issue entirely. It would allow use of a dwelling as a VRD in a Yes Zone 365 days a year, and that is one of the proposals that is drafted.”

Some have also questioned the regulations as a move by the City to close down all VRDs.

“That is not at all true,” said Townsend.

“The proposals are to better regulate VRDs so that they are safe, and to minimize the impact on the neighborhoods while streamlining the application process and recordkeeping requirements for the owners.”

Lincoln City City Attorney Richard Appicello has created new criminal penalties to deal with the illegal operation of VRDs. “I have created only two criminal penalties,” said Appicello. “Operating an illegal VRD intentionally or knowingly has been elevated to a Class A misdemeanor. The other is if the Council keeps the accessory use limitations in the code now and you intentionally violate or conduct a commercial VRD in a residential zone, it also would be a Class C misdemeanor.”

Fines and jail time are associated with Appicello’s changes.

its own merit. He said the new penalties give the City the ability to more effectively deal with repeated violators.

Townsend said the debate over VRDs has divided the community.

“This has became a very emotional issue in the past and it has been simmering for some time,” he said. “Some residents are very concerned about the livability of their neighborhoods. On the other hand, people are concerned about the financial investments they have made in the VRDs.” Townsend said he expects that the City Council will take action over the VRD regulations

by March.

“Hopefully, that will put the matter to bed,” said Townsend. “A lot of time, effort, and money have gone in to getting us to where we are now with the intent of getting a final resolution.”

“This enhanced service really provides quite an updated level of mobility for residents in Lincoln City,” Bruce said. “We already offer a Newport to Corval-

With a full staff we would be more efficient.

I would anticipate bringing a request to the commissioners and the budget committee for full staff funding, but right now I understand the county’s fiscal limitations.

“But if we allege you intentionally and knowingly operated a VRD without a license, the maximum penalty is $1,250 and 30 days in jail.”

Appicello said the police would be the City’s enforcement tool to issue a criminal citation to those violating the proposed regulations.

“I would have to endorse the criminal complaint,” said Appicello.

“So, there is discretion built in. We don’t have to issue a criminal citation. We can just issue a violation citation and that would mean no criminal penalties. We have added, that if you intentionally and knowingly operate a VRD without a license, we would elevate it to a crime. “ Appicello said each case will be dealt with on

Taft girls defy numbers crunch JIM FOSSUM JFossum@countrymedia.net

The Taft High girls swim team, behind freshman Lizeth Cortes and a squad half the size of any of its opponents, placed third Tuesday, Jan. 28, in an Oregon West Conference meet at Philomath.

“As usual, we were outnumbered, but we had some good swims,” longtime Taft coach Lissa Parker said. “We had several kids just getting off finals and/or being sick. The girls did phenomenal with only four people.”

Cortes won the 100-yard backstroke (1:11.67) and 200-yard individual medley (2:40.53) as the only event winner for the Tigers.

Sophomore Madison Garding was second in the 100-yard breaststroke and third in the 200-yard freestyle for Taft, which finished behind winning Philomath (89) and runnerup Newport (53) with 42 points. Central (32) was fourth and Cascade fifth (8) in the five-team league competition.

Taft girls also teamed to win the 400-yard freestyle relay behind Cortes, Garding and the only two other girls able to compete — sophomores Makayla Martin and Shawna Harskjold. The same group finished second in the 200-yard medley relay.

Taft, which suited up just 10 swimmers compared to 44 who competed

Swimming

for the winning Warriors, managed to place fourth in the boys competition, led by senior Eli Shott’s second-place finish in the 50 free, and sophomore Justin Delfin’s runner-up showing in the 500 free.

Newport won the boys meet with 90 points, followed by Philomath, 56; Cascade, 42; Taft, 23; and Central, 13.

Freshmen Kole Kovachevich and Charles Sims joined Delfin as the lone Taft swimmers to reduce their personal-best times at the meet, where a shallow pool contributes to slower times due mostly to more difficult turns.

Taft returned to the pool Tuesday, Feb. 4, for a scrimmage against Newport and is at Astoria, Feb. 15.

Newport’s shooting deflates Taft JIM FOSSUM JFossum@countrymedia.net

It didn’t take Taft High boys basketball coach Scott Henderson long to start pointing fingers at the culprit behind his team’s 49-31 Oregon West Conference home defeat to Newport on Friday.

He only had to look in the mirror.

“I screwed up,” he said.

That, or the Cubs threw a wrench into his plans.

Newport, which seldom shot from long range during Henderson’s scouting efforts, buried nine of them Jan. 31 to keep the Tigers winless in league play.

“Our scouting report was wrong,” he said. “They hadn’t made a 3 in six games, and tonight they were on fire.”

Newport worked the ball around the perimeter in deliberate fashion and hit the open man for nine 3s and 27 points in handing the Tigers their 47th straight league loss dating to 2009.

“They won the game on the 3-ball and that’s something they’d never done all year long,” Henderson said. “They made nine tonight, after making like one in 10 games.”

Newport used a height advantage at virtually every position to dispose of the Ti-

gers, who opened the week Tuesday with a 50-34 home loss to Central.

“They’re bigger than us, but I thought the kids played hard,” Henderson said. “They didn’t quit, it’s just that the 3-ball killed us. Their height affected our shots a little, but the 27 points, that was the difference.”

Boys Basketball

Despite the defeat, Henderson said the Tigers exhibited greater composure.

“I don’t think our heads took us out of it as much as their shooting did,” he said.

“We were way better on that.

I’m pleased with all of them.

They’re all working hard.

“Our goal is to overcome some mental adversity and today I didn’t see as much.

These kids are competitors.

They don’t want to lose, but

it’s the culture around here we have to change.”

Taft was at Cascade Tuesday, Feb. 4 (past print deadline; see thenewsguard. com for results) and at Stayton on Friday, Feb. 7.

“We’re playing hard,” Henderson said. “If we continue to play hard, we’re going to get a break where something’s going to come our way. We just have to believe in ourselves.”

Pesky Tigers push Newport to finish JIM FOSSUM JFossum@countrymedia.net

What better way to snap a long losing streak against conference opponents than to beat Newport, the Tigers’ chief rival, in the final Oregon West Conference girls basketball game the teams play at Taft.

The Tigers, poised to drop from Class 4A to the 3A West Valley League next season, gave the Cubs all they could handle, but some hot early shooting proved enough for Newport to hand Taft a 51-41 defeat Friday, Jan. 31.

“I felt that this was one of the more all-around, complete games we have played this year, and I’m proud of the effort our girls put forth,” Taft coach Dan Mock said of the Tigers, who opened the week Tuesday with a 60-17 league home loss to Central.

The Cubs hit nearly 80 percent of their shots in the first quarter to build an eight-point lead they managed to retain as the Tigers stayed close, 35-33, the rest of the way behind a team-high 11 points from senior Keitra Mason.

“Newport really shot the ball at an out-ofthis-world rate in the first quarter, and that hot shooting was a big difference in the game,” Mock said.

Taft, which was handed its 58th straight league loss, showed improvement as a team, Mock said.

“Which is good, and we must continue down that path,” he said. “It is essential that we eliminate some of the things that continue to benefit

the other team, such as blown assignments on defense and second-chance points. If we would clean that up, it would go a long ways toward earning a league victory.”

Taft finished a long way from a league victory just three nights earlier in a 43-point loss to the Panthers, a much larger and deeper league opponent.

Mason again led the way with seven points, but the Tigers couldn’t overcome the sheer numbers they confronted, a major reason why the team will drop in classification beginning next season.

“Even though there was a large discrepancy in the score, we played an improved ballgame compared to our previous loss against Philomath [a 58-11 road loss, Jan. 28],” Mock said. “Nonetheless, Central is a difficult matchup for us. They are pretty talented at every position, have good depth on their bench, and they can shoot the ball fairly well.

“It is a challenge when you have 16 girls in your basketball program, while each of your conference foes have 30 to 40. I feel like a lot of people miss or underestimate that

Several promotions, sales and special events will be part of Antique Week beginning Friday in Lincoln City. Pictured, right, are quilts from a collection on display this week at the North Lincoln Historical Museum. At far right is Frank Farmer Loomis IV, who has written several books on collecting and will appraise your antiques Feb. 15 at Chinook Winds Casino Resort.

Antique Week; Love is in the air JIM FOSSUM JFossum@countrymedia.net

Leslie Schwartz, owner of Carrousel by the Beach antique store, is planning a special week of offerings during annual Antique Week in Lincoln City, she just hasn’t decided on precisely what yet.

“It’s always fun,” she said, “and you usually get lots of people if the weather cooperates, which is always a plus, but they seem to show up even if the weather’s bad.”

By “they,” Schwartz means shoppers looking for a discount.

Several will be enticed Feb. 7 through 17 when the city, in conjunction with the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau and the Lincoln City Cultural Center, holds its annual Antique Week. Schwartz, for one, will offer discounts and a special Valentines promotion “to make it interesting.”

Various deals, attractions and services will be available at other participating locations.

“The crux of the event is 10 days of citywide sales, so there will be quite a few antique stores par-

ticipating, and within the stores, quite a few dealers who participate,” said Scott Humpert of the Visitor & Convention Bureau. “We want to celebrate that and bring in visitors from all over.”

In addition to the many local events (see corresponding panel), the North Lincoln County Historical Museum, located at 4907 S.W. Highway 101, will showcase vintage Valentine cards, which are already on display in the museum’s upstairs gallery. The theme for Antique Week is “Vintage Love.”

Also on display is an exhibit of quilts that have been recommended by the Oregon Quilters Guild, including one compiled by Freyda Rothstein. Rothstein, who died in 2001, was a highly respected and prolific producer and considered a mentor by many women in the industry.

Contact the Lincoln City Cultural Center at 541-954-9994 for more information.

Volunteer firefighters with North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1 serve up ham dinners during the district’s annual fundraiser at Taft High 7-12 last year.

Ham dinners to support local firefighters

BY CAPT. JIM KUSZ North Lincoln Fire & Rescue District #1

The annual North Lincoln Fire & Rescue (NLFR) District #1 Firefighters’ Ham Dinner has been taking place since 1958 as a means for local volunteer firefighters to raise funds to support their work in providing the district with emergency services.

This year, the volunteers selected a succulent honey cured ham from Kenny’s IGA, a new brown gravy sauce by Chef Robert Wiffen, coleslaw dressing donated by Tidal Raves, Mo’s famous Marion berry cobbler, fresh coffee from Cape Foulweather Coffee Company and Karen Brown will be making the dinner tables’

flower arrangements, making this truly a community effort.

NLFR volunteers will welcome hungry friends and families with bigger displays than before. As well as our newest engines and trucks, there will be information on earthquakes, tsunamis, fire prevention and safety. Local CERT members and other Emergency Preparedness organizations will also be there. Any questions you mught have will be answered and you’ll have a chance to become better acquainted with your local fire personnel!

From this annual event, the volunteers acquire equipment or supplies that the District might not otherwise be able to make available. Over the years, money

raised by the dinner, along with generous donations, has funded the purchase of a number of items that allow the volunteers to provide better emergency service.

Heart monitors were purchased in 1998 and 2001. In 2002, over $12,000 was used to purchase a Thermal Imaging Camera, an infrared device useful in finding hot spots in fire situations and live victims in limited vision situations.

In 2003, the volunteers purchased a set of two rams and anchor plates to add to the “Jaws-ofLife” for $5,200. In 2006, $670 was spent to maintain water rescue gear and $3,500.00 was used to See FIREFIGHTERS, Page B3

Mixed Grill

By Everett Cutter

How to avoid exploding glass cake pans Sally’s kid brother, Russell, met a lovely Irish lass at university, and after graduation they married and moved together to Dublin.

They manage to come home stateside every year or two, and once we were privileged to visit them for a week in their Donnybrook home.

On their most recent visit here, over Christmas, Russ told about a kitchen incident he experienced with gravy in a supposedly ovenproof glass pan. Russ set the glass pan on top of the range and as soon as he added liquid, it exploded.

Sheepishly: “Michelle told me to use the stainless steel frying pan, but I didn’t think it would make a difference.”

The story prompted Sally to describe her experience with a favorite egg dish, also in so-called heatproof glass.

After some time at usual high temperature, the dish was done. But as soon as the oven door was opened the slightest crack, the bainmarie and two egg dishes exploded with sufficient force to break the inside window of the oven door.

While major disaster was averted, the event still required much cleanup and installation of a new interior window. My wife says that the glass cake pan (bain-marie) is a common brand in everyone’s kitchen and while we cannot use the product’s name, we do wonder if others have had similar experiences.

EGGS A LA SALLY Use Soufle Ramekins and an oblong cake pan (not glass) Preheat oven to 550 and position one rack into the center of oven.

Pour enough water 1/3 the way up the sides of an oblong pan (this is called a bain-marie) and when oven is preheated, lift the pan into the oven very carefully, not to spill water on oven elements! Let pan sit in heated oven for about 15 minutes before putting the ramekins in.

Meanwhile: 2 eggs 1 1/2 Tablespoon butter 2 Tablespoons chopped lean ham 2 Tablespoons crab meat or salad shrimp (NOT both) 2 teaspoons crumbled blue cheese (mashed with a little bit of cream) Heavy whipping cream (about 1/2 Pint) Salt and white pepper 1 teaspoon tarragon, divided Divide butter in half.

Butter the bottoms of individual soufle ramekins.

Sprinkle ham over bottoms, then crab/shrimp, break one egg on top of the chopped ham and crab/shrimp and sprinkle 1 teaspoon crumbled blue cheese over each egg. Lightly season with salt and white pepper.

Pour the heavy cream over the egg mixture covering completely. Judiciously sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of tarragon over the cream.

Wearing oven mitts, gently place each ramekin into the bain-marie. Bake this dish for 8 to 10 minutes.

In developing this recipe, I finally achieved a decadent breakfast fit for royalty. It also works well as a supper dish. These eggs are very, very rich and need a side that is light. We usually have fresh cut-up fruit, or tossed salad (at supper).

Most people who have tried this recipe have noted they think it is the best egg dish they have ever tried. Nice!

Bon Appetite.

sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 90 days or before your fixed term lease expires.

You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar at 800-452-7636 and ask for the lawyer referral service.
