We hope you’ll find it a useful guide for making the best of living in this beautiful Northwest corner of Oregon.
Fort Clatsop was one of the earliest American structures on the West Coast. It was built by the Lewis and Clark expedition to shelter them during the winter of 1805-06, and named for the Clatsop Indians who lived in the area. The Tuality District was created in 1843 by the Provisional Legislature as one of the four original counties in Oregon. In 1844 Clatsop County was created from the western half of the Tuality District, bordered on the north by the Columbia River. Clatsop County was named for the Clatsop Tribe, one of the many Chinook tribes living in Oregon.
Astoria, Oregon’s oldest city, was founded in 1811 and was chosen by electors to be the county seat in 1854. In 1855 a two-story frame courthouse was completed. The first county government sat in Astoria in 1856. The second courthouse, at 749 Commercial Street was completed in 1908 and is still in use. County offices are now located in administration buildings near the courthouse at 800 Exchange Street.
In 1964 the county court was replaced by a board of commissioners. The voters of Clatsop County approved a home rule charter in 1988, which called for a board of county commissioners as the policy determining body of the county, and a county manager. County commissioners are elected to geographic districts to four-year terms. Current commissioners are: Chair Mark Kujala, Pamela Wev, Lianne Thompson, Courtney Bangs and John Toyooka.
The Board of Commissioners holds regular meetings on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month at 6 p.m. The Board holds hybrid meetings via Zoom link and in person, in the Judge Guy Boyington Building located at 857 Commercial St. in downtown Astoria. The public is always welcome to attend the Board meetings. The Zoom link may be found on the county website at: co.clatsop.or.us/boc

Twice a day the Lower Columbia experiences high and low tides with the gravitational pull of the moon. High tides will cover beaches, rocks and shores exposed just hours earlier, and has stranded the unwary. Low tides can ground boats on sandbars as water recedes. Pick up a tide book at local tourist retailers, check the tide schedule online, or download a tide app and plan your water recreation accordingly.

Although Clatsop County’s economy was historically driven by fisheries and forestry, diversification of business in the county has resulted in a shift to manufacturing, tourism and healthcare-centered employment. Fishing and logging businesses still make up a large portion of the owner-operated independent businesses and feed the processing and manufacturing of for those natural resources in Clatsop County. Hospitality-related employment in lodging and food service makes up nearly one-third of the county’s employment.

Del Thompson went to work for OK Rubber Welders in 1952. Then in 1962 he bought the business. In 1978 Klyde took over as manger and co-owner with Harrlet Thompson. He bought out Harrlet in 1997, so Klyde and his wife Mary Kaye are the present owners.
In 1983, Klyde was one of the founders of the NW Tire Factory Group, which has grown to over 350 locations in 41 years. In 2015, Tire Factory merged with Point S Tire and Auto Group, bringing the number of locations in North America and Europe to over 5,000.
As most of you know, Michael Barnett has been a key person in our company for over 14 years. And this year, we welcomed him into the company as a partner buying in as Klyde phases into retirement in the next few years.
Astoria was established in 1810 as the first permanent U.S. settlement west of the Rocky mountains. Men from the Tonquin, an Pacific Fur Company ship, named the outpost after owner John Jacob Astor. During the U.S. war with the British in 1812, isolation and lack of military protection caused Pacific Fur Company to fold, and the assets were sold to the British North West Company. From 1813 to 1818, the British owned Astoria, referred to during that time as Fort George. In 1818, a treaty with England established joint occupation of the Oregon Country. The first U.S. Post Office west of the Rocky Mountains was established in Astoria in 1847, and in 1854 Astoria was chosen by electors as county seat for recently created Clatsop County.

The city of Seaside is thought to have been named from Seaside House, a grand summer home built in 1871 by railroad magnate Ben Holladay. Ben Holladay has a Seaside street named for him as well.
The Promenade, or “Prom,” was established by real estate developer and Seaside mayor Alexandre Gilbert, who donated land to the City of Seaside for its development along the Pacific beach in 1912. Following a devastating fire in 1912, Gilbert helped businesses rebuild in Seaside, and established the Gilbert District east of the Neanicum River on Broadway. The historic Gilbert House is located at 341 Beach Drive.

The city is named for Phillip Gearhart, a settler from Missouri who in 1851, bought acreage on the Clatsop Plains. He increased the size of his holdings in 1859, and again in 1863 so that the parcel encompassed all of what is now Gearhart, as well as a portion of Seaside across the Necanicum River estuary. In 1889, a railroad was built between Astoria and Seaside. It carried vacationing Portlanders from the ferry in Astoria to Gearheart, increasing the numbers of vacationers who were drawn to.Gearhart for relaxing summer days at the beach, wandering the Ridge Path through the dunes and meadows of the Phillip Gearhart land claim.

Tips for coexisting with Roosevelt Elk in Gearhart
Enjoy watching from a distance. Keep pets on a leash at all times. Elk are most active at dawn and dusk, but avoid human and pet conflicts during September & October breeding seasonand May & June (when calves are born). Non-native vegetation attracts Elk. To move a herd off of you property, calmly approach the herd making your presense obvious. Avoid surprising the Elk or being aggressive. Source: City of Gearhart.

William Clark and several of his companions from the Corps of Discovery, including Sacagawea, made a three-day journey from Fort Clatsop on January 10, 1806, to the site of a beached whale. They encountered a group of Native Americans from the Tillamook tribe who were boiling blubber for storage. Ehkoli is thought to be a native word for “whale,” so Clark named the site Ecola Creek. Later settlers renamed the creek “Elk Creek,” a name that was also given to the settlement that developed nearby.
A cannon from the US Navy schooner Shark washed ashore just north of Arch Cape in 1846, a few miles south of Elk Creek. As a result, in 1922, Elk Creek was renamed Cannon Beach.
The shipwrecked cannon is in the city’s museum and a replica of it can be seen alongside U.S. 101. More artifacts from the Shark, and information about the settlement can be seen at the Columbia River Maritime Museum in Astoria.

Haystack Rock is a 235 ft-tall (72 m) sea stack in Cannon Beach, Oregon. The monolithic rock is adjacent to the beach and accessible by foot at low tide. The Haystack Rock tide pools are home to many intertidal animals, including starfish, sea anemone, crabs, chitons, limpets, and sea slugs. The rock is also a nesting site for many sea birds, including terns and puffins.
Haystack Rock is composed of basalt and was formed by lava flows emanating from the Blue Mountains and Columbia basin about 15-17 million years ago. Three smaller, adjacent rock formations to the south of Haystack Rock are collectively called “The Needles”.

All Clatsop County residents are required by law to license their dogs annually. An aluminum license tag attached to your dog’s collar can help identify your pet to be returned home safely. A license is required even when the dog is always indoors or on a farm. When the dog is not on the owner’s premises, it is required to wear a license tag. Residents of Seaside and Gearhart are required to license their dogs through their local police departments. There is no licensing required for cats or other types of domestic animals.
All dogs must be licensed at:
• 6 months of age, or
• When they have permanent canine teeth, or
• Within 30 days of acquisition, or
• Within 60 days after new residents move into Clatsop County.
• A license is required even when the dog is always indoors or on a farm.
What documents will I need?
• A current rabies inoculation certificate.
• For altered dogs, the spay or neuter certificate or a written statement from your veterinarian.

Licenses can be purchased or renewed in person or through the mail at the Animal Shelter by using the form online at www.co.clatsop.or.us/animalcontrol/page/dog-licenseapplication
