A busy spring awaits By VERNE MOBLEY Chamber President
Howdy — to our friends out there in the community of our Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce and our lucky friends who receive this great Pacific City Sun in their mail boxes around the world. Our editor, publisher, owner, janitor and all around good guy Tim Hirsch does a super job of bringing us the news and views of our beautiful area. A busy spring awaits us, and we are ready! Merrianne Hoffman, chairman for “Birding and Blues” has a fun time put together for April 21-23. This is always a big event and lots of folks come to town to see the “Birds” in the country and hear the “Blues” music at the Kiawanda Community Center. Clover’s Day is well planned with Dorothy Gann in charge. All arrangements are in order for the big fireworks display at the beach after Clover the cow leads the parade in Cloverdale. All this fun on July 1. Yes, the first! Our Chamber will have a new website, which will be up in mid-April. More on this next month. We need these kinds of things to help membership. To tell it like it is, our expenses have been more than our income the last 4 to 5 years. We want to keep doing all the things we do for the community, but cannot without more members. One way we can reduce expenses is to stop paying for street lights in Cloverdale and Hebo. Many people don’t know we do this. There are 19 or 20 lights times $9 a month. So…let’s NOT turn off the lights!! Call me at 971-257-0200 or talk to any Chamber member about membership — or about lights! Don’t forget our next membership meeting is on April 4 at noon at the Pelican. Paid Advertisement

TALKBACK Vote ‘yes’ on ESB Our families have ties to Pacific City going back 60 years. The area has not only grown in full- and part-time residents, but the increase in popularity and influx of short term “visitors” is staggering. Most folks around here don’t favor or embrace new or increased taxes. However, in the case of the Enhanced Sheriff’s Patrol District (ESPD) ballot measure, one might want to consider a few things before you vote. The ‘90s passing of Measures 5 and 50 limiting the amount of tax on assessed value of property reduced tax burden, but it significantly cut into local operating budgets. Tillamook County is no exception with cuts everywhere including public safety. “Special Event” funding is part of the equation with or without ESPD. But one only has to visit the popular beach access sites any weekend during most seasons to see those locations overwhelmed and overrun with people. Those who attended community meetings with county officials, including the sheriff, understand $0.58 per $1,000 of asssessed valuation offers a higher level of sheriff’s patrol in our local area 24/7/365. This figure covers not only salary and vehicle expense but also expenses like personal time off, ongoing training, proficiency testing along with a proportionate amount of administrative, office, and court time. That is to say, figures to support the ESPD measure weren’t pulled out of thin air. It’s safe to say (today) there’s limited sheriff’s office focus dedicated to “crime prevention” in our area. A full time focused presence of a deputy will reduce both reported and unreported crime as well as crime prevention dispelling the notion by criminals this area is an “easy mark.” Greater concern is for medical and fire first responder’s ability to provide life threat care and resources needed at a scene deemed unsafe until a deputy arrives. Clearing a scene can be a critical half hour or more waiting for a deputy to arrive when 10

minutes could mean the difference between life and death. We’re fortunate to have county politicians vested in our communities. Most folks would say our commissioners are not pushing “tax and spend” in getting the ESPD on the ballot. Yes, the entire county should be covered by the sheriff’s department at an equitable tax rate across the board. Yes, there should be a mechanism within the TLT rules for funding for public safety, at a minimum covering increased resource costs for law enforcement due to tourist activity. But if neither of those vehicles is immediately viable under the current funding scheme, shouldn’t we take it upon ourselves to do what’s needed for our community? We’ve long realized our location, at some distance from our County’s largest city, leaves us wanting and forgotten in many regards. A yes vote for the EPSD is a way our community can look after itself. Dan Doyle & Randy Johnston Pacific City
It’s too expensive I totally agree with the letter written by Daryl Jimmerson published by Pacific City Sun on March 3, page 2, titled “A Spendy Proposal.” The letter is about the expenses of having two deputy patrols in our small fishing village and Neskowin all year round at the price of $390,366.00 as previously reported by the Sun. The whole idea is not a bad one — but — not at the expense of the property owners. We already have a sheriff department coverage that we are paying for with our property taxes. We simply cannot afford to pay for this extremely expensive increase added to our already high taxes in our small town. Most of our full time residents are seniors on a fixed income. Many others are employees earning minimum wages or low paying salaries. Tillamook County property taxes keep increasing every year, so are the utilities, insurances, etc. If we vote to pass this ex-
pensive proposal, it will never go away — instead other “ideas” will come along in the near future and we’ll end up paying even higher taxes. When will it end? Tillamook Couty is responsible to pay for a deputy in the summer, when the town is full of tourist traffic. I say, use the money from the tourism lodging tax for this proposal. Leave the homeowners alone. I hope the County comes up with a solution before the May election. If not, vote no on the May ballot. Rose Perez Pacific City
Vote ‘yes’ for school On behalf of the Year of Wellness (YOW), I am urging a YES vote on the TSD9 bond measure this May. YOW goals include tobacco prevention, improved nutrition and increased physical activity for all Tillamook County residents. These three health habits drive 80% of our chances of developing a chronic disease which results in higher healthcare costs for everyone. The earlier we start healthy habits, the more likely they are to last a lifetime. Investing in a safe and healthy environment for our youth is a step in the right direction. Funds from this bond will be used to construct covered, outdoor play areas for all elementary schools. Increasing physical activity during the school day not only supports students’ physical health but also improves attention, behavior and learning. Combined with the state matching funds, these reasons make a yes vote a no-brainer. Michelle Jenck, M.Ed. Tillamook County Year of Wellness Coordinator

Oregon studded tire season ends March 31 Drivers in Oregon are reminded to remove studded tires by Friday, March 31. “We encourage drivers to not wait until the March 31 deadline to remove their studded tires, especially if they aren’t driving in the mountain passes between now and then,” said Luci Moore, State Maintenance and Operations Engineer. Studded tires are allowed in Oregon from Nov. 1 through March 31. While the law allows ODOT to extend the studded tire season when necessary, current weather forecasts do not support an extension this year. ODOT encourages drivers to consider other types of traction tires or chains to help minimize roadway damage caused by studded tires. A 2014
study concluded studded tires cause about $8.5 million in damage each year to state highways. In addition to studded tires, other types of traction tires are available. These traction tires meet the Rubber Manufacturers Association standards for use in severe snow conditions and carry an emblem on the tire sidewall of a three-peaked mountain with a snowflake in the center. Research shows these tires cause no more damage than standard all-weather radial tires and that they provide better traction than studded tires when used on bare pavement. Drivers with studded tires on their vehicles after the deadline can be charged by law enforcement with a Class C traffic violation.

The challenges of a multi-agency approach to water rescue services along the Oregon Coast are being addressed at a two-day water rescue summit in Florence, March 30-31. As the Sun is going to press, Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District management is meeting with a variety of agencies — all of which play important roles when it comes to water rescue. The meeting will include fire departments from Warrenton to Brookings, as well as the U.S. Coast Guard, Oregon Parks & Recreation Department, State of Oregon Emergency Management and Oregon State Police. “We’ve been working on putting
together this summit round table to bring many of the agencies to one place to talk about (each agency’s) responsibility and the roles each play,” Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland told the Sun on March 28. He said it owes its impetus — at least in part — to some of the instances seen at Cape Kiwanda where there was loss of life. “It’s going to be a good meeting because we’re bringing all the players,” he added. “What we’re looking for is the opportunity to get clear communication about what our roles are and what everyone’s expectations are (of other departments).” Watch for the April 14 issue of the Sun for a complete report on any progress gained at the meeting.
The conversation around the Pacific City-Woods Citizen Advisory Committee’s “20/30/40 Plan,” an effort that seeks to put the area’s many facility and infrastructure improvement ideas into action, continued during the CAC’s March 20 meeting with much of the discussion revolving around a possible multi-use path as well as funding sources for this concept and others. Developing a multi-use path has come up consistently in the area’s many planning documents as one with support from most residents. “Developing a multi-use path around town seems to be the one thing that the vast number of people agree with — whether they are a tourist or local,” said CAC Chair Sean Carlton.
“In terms of a biking and walking path, there’s lots of money out there. Lots of organizations are trying to promote an alternative to driving.” Conversely, some discussion revolved around ideas in the recently released Cape Kiwanda Master Plan that, while may make sense for tourists, might not be best for the community. “Just because it’s on the list, doesn’t mean it’s smart to do,” said Carlton referring to the idea of relocating Webb Park and putting a parking facility in its place. “That’s why I like to talk about this. It’s up to us to decide which (improvements on the Cape Kiwanda Master Plan) are important.” The next CAC meeting will be Saturday, April 15 at Pacific Coast Bible Church, starting at 10:30 a.m.
Pacific City Sun publisher launches second publication Pacific City Sun editor and publisher Tim Hirsch has debuted a second newspaper, the Emerald Valley Vine, a monthly publication serving the Christian community of the EugeneSpringfield area. The Vine was launched on Monday, March 27.

day-to-day operations. “The vast majority of my time and effort will still be spent here in Pacific City,” he said. “I remain 110 percent committed to the Sun and to providing the best local newspaper coverage I can. I feel blessed to be able to serve this community.” News tips for the Sun can be sent to tim@pacificcitysun.com. For more information about the Vine, visit www.emeraldvalleyvine.com.

Nestucca Fire Board whittles chief candidates down to 5 By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun The field to replace retiring Fire Chief Kris Weiland was narrowed from 12 to five candidates by the Nestucca Rural Fire Protection District Board of Directors during a recent workshop. The board will conduct phone interviews of the remaining candidates and then decide which to invite for a faceto-face interview with the board, as well as with a community-based and a technical-based committee. Board president Ken Crowe said he expects that by the end of May the board will have selected a new fire chief. Weiland, who is doing the administrative work for the search, said that the remaining candidates come from diverse backgrounds and locales with one candidate each from Arizona and Montana. “I would say we’ve got some pretty good candidates there,” Weiland said. “It’s going to come down to the conversations. (It’s then that) you really get to learn what makes them tick.”
Though it will be the board’s decision once all the interviews are done, Weiland said he particularly recognizes the value of having candidates face a panel of experts. He added that amongst the issues the expert group will focus on during interviews will be each candidate’s command experience, their knowledge of budgeting, and their personnel management experience. “They’ll look at the background of what (candidates) have done in the fire service and how it will apply to our particular community,” he said. “We’re unique because we’re the coast. That brings another dynamic that a lot of people aren’t engaged in.” For Weiland, the process gives him mixed feelings as he looks toward his planned retirement at the end of June. “It’s my baby, but I do think we have some viable candidates,” he said. “I would say (the candidates) are all pretty equal, but I’m watching this thing because I (care about) the future of the district. I’ve got a lot of blood and sweat and tears in it myself.”
Nestucca seniors take in capitol building, visit with state legislators during annual field trip By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun A group of Nestucca students were treated to a day of real-world education on Tuesday, March 28 when the Nestucca Valley Lions Club brought approximately 35 seniors from the school’s government class to the state capitol in Salem. The event is supported by the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce. The exposure to Oregon’s political process included a chance to sit in the gallery in both the House of Representatives and the Senate for the students, as well as spending an hour in conversation with Rep. David Gomberg (D-Otis) and Sen. Arnie Roblan (D-Coos Bay). “They were just fantastic,” said Lions Club member Dorothy Gann, who organized this year’s trip. “They interacted with the kids, and the kids
really enjoyed it. They asked a lot of questions and really paid attention.” Following the lunchtime visit with the two legislative members, the students toured the capitol. Gann said that during the tour they learned about the roles of both the house and senate, as well as the history behind the building itself. And all that education pays dividends, she said. “I think it’s important for (the students) to understand what happens on the state level and how the government passes bills,” she said. “I think it’s neat that kids get to go because a lot of them may not (otherwise) get a chance to do something like this.” Besides Gann, Lions members Monica Collett, Teresa Smith and Fred Whittlinger also made the trip, as did Nestucca Jr.-Sr. High School staff members John Elder and Tim Foster.

Kids invited to Nestucca Valley Lions Club’s Easter Egg Hunt on April 15 By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun
T
he search for candy-filled eggs, a friendly visit with the Easter Bunny, and a chance to put out a “mock” burning house — it’s all a part of the fun when the Nestucca Valley Lions Club hosts its annual Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 15. A South Tillamook County tradition, the event gets started at 9 a.m. at Nestucca Jr.-Sr. High School’s football field when children can explore a fire truck and then line up for a turn at a fire hose where they’ll squirt down painted on flames. It’ll also be the time for parents to snap photos of their little ones with one large — and friendly — rabbit. Children are advised to line up for the mad dash for Easter eggs in advance of the 10 a.m. start time. Two sections will be marked off — one for smaller children, ages 1 to 5, and the other for preschoolers through fourth-graders. In total, there will be approximately 1,000 eggs up for grabs — each filled with loot such as quarters, gift coupons from local merchants, and, of course, plenty of candy. As well, there will be coupons in some eggs that kids can exchange for stuffed animals when the mad dash has reached the finish line. “(We want) to make it a special day

much more. Tickets, now available at Oregon Coast Bank where people can see the basket, are $1 each or six for $5. Tickets can also be purchased at the event. The drawing will be held after the egg hunt. Funds raised from the raffle will benefit the egg hunt.

ODFW BIOLOGIST PAUL ATWOOD, who will be speaking on the benefit of habitat restoration for wildlife during an April 11 science pub at Pelican Pub & Brewery, is seen here putting a radio collar on a female black-tailed deer.
Science pub to focus on the benefits restored habitats bring to wildlife By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun It may be common knowledge that restored estuaries are game changers for fish such as endangered coho, but what about other species? Do birds, mammals and reptiles reap a benefit, too? The answer is “yes,” says biologist Paul Atwood, who will lead an April 11 science pub titled “A Walk on the Wild Side” at Pelican Pub & Brewery. He says that though grant-funded habitat restorations are mostly geared towards threatened fish species, wildlife benefits greatly as well. Hosted by the Nestucca, Neskowin and Sand Lake Council, the science pub will run from 6-8 p.m., during which Atwood will discuss ways wildlife utilize different estuary habitats such as salt marshes, flowing freshwater and adjacent uplands. “Habitat restoration benefits a wide variety of species that aren’t as economically or well known to the public (as salmon),” he said. “Pretty much every amphibian and reptile is associated — during at least some part of their life — with the
riparian area.” A good example, he said, are salamanders. He said the wood that is placed in stream to benefit fish, also pays dividends for these creatures. “As wood decays and settles in the bank, that’s really great for all salamanders,” he said. The Northern Red-Legged Frog is another amphibian that he says benefits from restoration work originally designed for fish as they can take refuge in the root balls placed in stream with the main intent of providing spawning habitat. Atwood is currently the assistant district wildlife biologist for ODFW, but previously worked for the agency as an assistant district fish biologist. Before joining ODFW, he worked for the Wyoming Game and Fish Department as a native fish biologist. Atwood holds a masters degree in Conservation Biology from Central Michigan University. In his free time, he enjoys taking advantage of the diverse local hunting and fishing opportunities. Doors will open at 5:30 p.m. for the science pub and food and beverages will be available for purchase.

Keyed Up in Neskowin Pianist Albert Kim to play April 9 Neskowin Chamber Music concert at Camp Wi-Ne-Ma A familiar face returns to Neskowin Chamber Music’s audiences on Sunday, April 9 when pianist Albert Kim presents a concert at 3 p.m. at Camp Wi-Ne-Ma. Kim performed a concert at the Donor Appreciation Reception to commemorate the 20th anniversary during the 2013-2014 season. Kim made his public debut at the age of 10, when he substituted on a day’s notice for an ailing Vladimir Horowitz to give the inaugural performance at Carnegie Hall on the 500,000th Steinway piano. Since then he has performed throughout the U.S. and Europe, giving recitals at such venues as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Weill Recital Hall. He has appeared as soloist with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, the Hartford Symphony, and the Mozart, Bach and Brahms Society Orchestras at Harvard. He has performed world premieres of concerto and chamber works by Ellen Taafe Zwilich, Toshio
Hosokawa, and Rivers Cuomo, the lead vocalist of Weezer. Currently on the music faculty at Linfield College in McMinnville, Kim received his B.A. degree from Harvard and a Master of Music and a Doctor of Musical Arts, both from the Eastman School of Music. And music isn’t his only talent. Some years back, he interrupted his musical career to go into aviation. He retains his private pilot’s license and his dream is to own his own airplane. Kim will also present a free outreach concert, which is open to the public, on April 10 at Neskowin Valley School, 10005 Slab Creek Rd., at 8:30 a.m. Season tickets ($110) to this year’s concerts can be purchased by calling 503-965-6499. Tickets at the door are $25. For more information, visit www. neskowinchambermusic.org. Camp Winema is located three miles north of Neskowin just off Highway 101.

Oregonians love the wild beauty of our 363 miles of coastline, but finding truly local seafood can be hard, even on the coast. The US imports approximately 90 percent of its seafood and ships out nearly as much to the global market. Why aren’t we eating more local seafood, now that preserving and distribution technologies are the most sophisticated they have ever been? Why do we consider seafood more a delicacy now than it has been in the past? This is the focus of “Fish Tales: Traditions and Challenges of Seafood in Oregon,” a free conversation with Jennifer Burns Bright on Tuesday, April 11, at 6:30 p.m. at South Tillamook County Library, 6200 Camp St., Pacific City. The program is hosted by the Tillamook County Library and sponsored by Oregon Humanities. Burns Bright is a food and travel writer based in Port Orford. She recently retired from teaching at the University of Oregon, where she researched desire in 20th-century literature, led a faculty research group in the emerging discipline of food studies, and won a national pedagogy award for a team-taught, interdisciplinary class on bread. She holds a PhD from the University of California at Irvine and a Master Food Preserver certification. As a community organizer linking local producers and consumers, Bright often speaks and teaches at events. Her writing appears in Gastronomica, Oregon Quarterly, NPR’s The Salt, AAA’s Via, and Eugene Magazine, among others. Through the Conversation Project, Oregon Humanities offers free programs that engage community members in thoughtful, challenging conversations about ideas critical to the daily lives of Oregonians and the state’s future.

raveling along the Pacific Coast has always been a challenge for sailors. The weather can change frequently and early ships had little navigation tools. The entrance to the Nestucca River has always been extremely dangerous. The channel over the bar changes frequently in position and depth. Snags brought on by winter storms also can change the depth of the river. Only light draft vessels with local knowledge were able to cross safely. Boats such as the Della and Gerald C. made regular trips over the bar into the Nestucca River to collect salmon from the cannery and deliver goods as far north as Cloverdale. Here are a few of the boats that wrecked in the Pacific City area. Pilots Bride, a sloop, became stranded on the Nestucca Bar on Aug. 1, 1881. Her captain was C.H. Lewis bound for Portland from the Nestucca. She was a total loss. Carmarthen Castle was a British ship sailing from San Pedro-Portland. Captain William Richards was stuck for several days offshore due to thick fog and unable to get a sighting. The vessel struck land on Dec. 2, 1886, south of Nestucca Bay, and became a total loss. The skipper and crew of 27 were saved. The captain proceeded on to Tillamook on a borrowed horse and stumbled and fell into a creek and nearly drowned. The Gerald C., a gas screw lumber cargo ship, wrecked on the north spit at the entrance to Nestucca Bay on May 10, 1907. It was a total loss. The Venus, a gas schooner, capsized on the Nestucca Bar on Nov. 4, 1923. The captain was Adolph Kangiser and his engineer, Olaf Bowman. Bowman and the captain fought clear of the wreck and swam for shore. The captain felt a violent tug on his foot that

THESE REMNANTS of the ship the Pioneer used to appear during winters of great erosion on the beach at Cape Kiwanda. nearly pulled him under. Kicking hard, he managed to free himself. Upon reaching shore, he found part of his boot missing, though he himself was not injured. The ripping teeth-marks on the boots indicated a shark attack. It is said to be the first recorded shark attack in Oregon. The Pioneer, a three-masted schooner with a load of lumber, shipwrecked on Dec. 17, 1900 at Cape Kiwanda’s beach. The ship was sailing from KnapptonSan Francisco and lost her rudder. Some 500,000 feet of her lumber cargo was bought by John and Leonard Krebs and Howard Kellow of Pacific City. Some of the lumber was used to build the Della. The Della was built in Woods and it worked the Nestucca and Tillamook Bay for years. The stern and ribs of the Pioneer used to be seen on the beach during certain times of beach erosion. Possibly, with new erosion, we may be able to see evidence again someday.
