Worth the cost? Nestucca Fire board approves plan to tap into credit line for new station By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun HEBO — The Nestucca Rural Fire Board of Directors voted on Dec. 14 to move forward with plans to construct a 9,595 square foot fire hall and administrative building on their Hebo site. The board had previously approved a budget of $1.52 million for its general contractor, Dalke Construction. But to get at that number, several reductions to the plan were penciled in including dropping a plan for a mezzanine, opting for a composite roof instead for a metal one, and concrete floors in the area that is to be roughed in with hopes of finishing it off at a later date when more funds are available. Also on the initial chopping block were copper wiring, and a sprinkler system and fire alarm. As it turns out, a sprinkler system is important as it is a requirement for adding resident quarters — something board members have increasingly pointed to as a must do. To add back in the most desired of the cuts is budgeted to cost the district an additional $179,355. By using the $75,000 contingency built into the budget, the shortfall would have shrunk to a more palatable $104,355. But several of the board members have said throughout the process that borrowing money was one direction they didn’t want to go. In the end, though, the majority of the board members came to the conclusion that borrowing $200,000 or less is a small price to pay to build a complete facility. With that in mind, the board voted to compromise — adding in some of the lost features and forgoing others. Making the list will be Cemplank siding, the sprinkler system, support structure to allow for a later finishing of the mezzanine, copper wiring, and resident quarters. The total quoted “add back in” price for those items is $28,889 after putting the contingency in play. That figure,
however, does not include the price of resident quarters. Several low-cost options that could include some slight reconfiguration of the floor plan are being considered. Amongst those concepts are Weiland’s idea to reconfigure office space into the living quarters. The board did have one other option — that of shrinking the footprint to 7,200 square feet. But based on subcontractor quotes, that would only save the district about $40,000. And that savings would shrink further yet once engineering for a smaller facility is figured in. “The fact is we’d end up with the same (financial) hole we’re in now,” said board member John Emerson. It was with that in mind that the majority begrudgingly came to the conclusion that it is more important to build everything necessary. Still, it wasn’t a unanimous decision. Board director Steven Traylor said conversations he’s had with constituents have supported the idea of holding the line and not going into debt. But directors Emerson and Jan Bayless, both of whom have been vocal in their opposition to borrowing money for the project, said that in light of all the figures, they are changing their tune. “I have not at all wanted to borrow money,” said Emerson, “but public buildings typically don’t get built with money saved. Maybe we do need to look into tapping into that line of credit.” Chiming in from a taxpayer perspective, project manager Doug Olson said it was his opinion that this is a project worth doing right. “I’ve been here 20 years, and I’ve seen a lot of public buildings where they did a (substandard) job,” he said. “Virtually any public building of significance is financed with debt. I don’t see anything wrong with it. I’ve looked at the budget, and I think you can come up with $8,000 to $10,000 a year.” An important point that several board members underscored was that any money financed will be a part of the district’s budget. The board said they have no intention of seeking a bond and the higher taxes that would come along with it. The board’s plan going forward will be to use the contingency money first and only tap into their available line of credit should they need it. Board members are holding up hope that none of the contingency money will be needed and that the project will come in under budget — thereby lessening or eliminating the need to borrow.

the truck,” he said. “I feel this will be a real asset. There’s a certain amount of pride (bringing in) something that I’m familiar with. This apparatus is a real workhorse.” Weiland said the purchase represents another step in improving the district’s insurance rating, which will ultimately mean savings for consumers. It also gives them fire fighting capabilities that they have long lacked. He said that currently the district can’t get to any structure over two stories tall. It will also serve to reach areas currently not accessible because of tight roads. Annual maintenance costs of the truck are expected to be in the neighborhood of $5,000. While waiting for the Hebo station to be built, the rig will be stored at a Tillamook PUD storage building.

District secures ladder truck BEAVER — Nestucca Fire Chief Kris Weiland told the Nestucca Fire Board of Directors on Dec. 14 that the district will purchase a 1986 46-foot ladder truck from the City of Renton for $10,000. Weiland said he expects to take delivery of the truck in mid-January. Funds for the purchase will come from the district’s apparatus fund. He said the purchase price compares favorably with what was available on the open market. He cited one example where a similar ladder truck was available at a starting bid of $10,000. The truck, which features a 110foot extension ladder, is no stranger to Weiland. During his 28-year career at Renton, he operated the rig from 2001 to 2006. “I personally know the history of

A fine finish to 2011 Rock into the New Year during the Sportsman’s annual celebration on Dec. 31 By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — On the eve of Dec. 31, the sun will set on another year, but not before the rock ‘n roll of the Rockhounds brings a celebratory finish to the comings and goings of 2011 during the Sportsman’s Pub-n-Grub annual end-of-year bash. Also on tap for the New Year’s
party will be party favors at midnight, as well as a complimentary champagne toast. Boasting a musical repertoire that focuses on favorites from the ‘50s through the ‘80s, the Rockhounds feature keyboard player/ vocalist Greg Sommers, rhythm guitarist Rusty Cook, guitarist/ vocalist Kevin Kaneta, bassist James Scheidt, and drummer Craig Cunningham. The vocal talents of Lois McLennen chimes in for select songs to add a diverse dimension to the group’s sound. The group has played the Sporty at least once a year for the past decade. With a play list that attracts young and old, the Rockhounds are a sure bet if you’re looking for a chance to let your hair down as 2011 comes to a close and
2012 makes its grand entrance. “We love playing there,” says Cunningham. “People seem to have as much fun listening to our music as we do playing it.” Though he calls Beaverton home, Cunningham says his frequent weekend coast trips are never complete without a visit to Pacific City’s place to “rub elbows with the locals.” “I don’t think you can get any better fish and chips anywhere in the state than right there in the Sportsman,” he boasts. And, he says, it doesn’t hurt that they have my favorite beer on tap. The Sportsman’s Pub-n-Grub is located in downtown Pacific City at 34975 Brooten Road. Call 503-9659991 for more information.

Master gardening secrets in 2012 TILLAMOOK — The OSU Master Gardener Training Program is now registering for the 2012 season. The program consists of two parts: the first is the training classes, which are offered once a year; the second is the practicum (or practical application) of the training, which is completed when class members volunteer in the community and share what they have learned with the public through organized and informal educational activities. The goal of the OSU Extension Service is to share research-based information throughout the state, and to help individuals continue to learn. The Tillamook County OSU Extension Service provides the Oregon Master Gardener certification classes for a fee of $100. This fee includes handouts, instructor mileage, and the comprehensive 526-page gardening handbook for the Pacific Northwest, “Sustainable Gardening: The Oregon-Washington Master Gardener Handbook.” For registration or more information, contact the OSU Extension Service at 2204 Fourth Street, Tillamook, or call 503-842-3433. Pre-registration deadline is Jan. 4. Gift certificates for the classes are available at the OSU Extension Service. The recipient can complete the class registration once they have received their gift. According to the OSU Extension Service, the class is geared to individuals with a strong interest in gardening, a little experience, and an interest in helping others.

The ‘reason for the season’ By TIM HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — Decorated trees may be meaningful and twinkling lights a festive touch, but if you really want to celebrate the reason for the season, a visit to one of South Tillamook County’s many churches promises a chance to pay tribute to the real meaning of Christmas. Area churches are commemorating the birth of Jesus during services that range from the traditional candlelight services to Christmas Day celebrations on Sunday morning. Pacific Coast Bible Church, located in downtown Pacific City at 35220 Brooten Road, will get things started off with a 6 p.m. candlelight service on Friday, Dec. 23 when the church hosts a night of carols, special music and a Christmas message. The church will also hold a Christmas Day worship service at 9:30 a.m. At Nestucca Valley Presbyterian Church, 35305 Brooten Road, Pacific City, the Christmas celebrations get started with a free community Christmas concert on Sunday, Dec. 18. The 3 p.m. concert will feature the musical sounds of organist Margaret Slagle, pianist/ organist Shelley Stoll and vocalist Jill Becker. Or Page 4 • Pacific City Sun • December 16, 2011

ADU ordinance Enjoy a Visit with Mrs. Claus! goes back to the Live Christmas Trees 5’-6’ $ drawing board 35 Bulb Clearance! Everyday through Christmas Eve
TILLAMOOK — Tillamook Planning Commissioners unanimously voted to direct staff to rework a proposed accessory dwelling unit proposal at its Dec. 15 meeting. The decision came on the heels of a more than three-hour discussion involving citizens, staff and commission members. The decision was at least in part because of objections raised by Pacific City residents who objected to parking and density ramifications of the rule change. An ADU is defined as a “secondary, self-contained dwelling unit that may be allowed in conjunction with a primary dwelling. An ADU generally has its own outside entrance, and always has a separate kitchen and bathroom.” Planning Commission members directed staff to look at several key areas of the language including whether they still want to make the amendment a conditional use only. “Requiring a conditional use is just another expense,” said Commissioner Terry Jones. Chair Kurt Heckeroth said that he understood the reason it was added as a way to give neighbors — who may not like the idea of the change in allowed density — a chance to give input. “The reason for the conditional use (provision) was to provide an oppor-
tunity for adjacent land owners and infrastructure to respond accordingly. If the county applies this ordinance and approves it, that’s changing what people bought into,” he said. “By having a conditional use, you at least allow people to raise questions about impacts to their property whereas if it was an outright use, you don’t have any way to mitigate exposure.” With that in mind, Jones speculated that the Workforce Housing Task Force, which is responsible for the proposal, should at least consider making commercial zones an outright use. Other areas the Workforce Task Force was asked to examine included parking and zones where ADUs would be allowed in. Planning Commissioner Gale Ousele said that one possible revision might be to just not include Pacific CityWoods zones. “I’m not saying it’s my favorite idea, but it is a solution,” she said. In addition, at Planning Commissioner Sierra Lauder Schnabel’s request, they will look at whether it would be appropriate to allow detached ADUs taller than one story. In an effort to make ADUs clearly subordinate to the primary residence, currently language in the draft stipulates that detached ADUs must be single-story structures.

Dory Fleet Project issues call for oral history participants McMINNVILLE — Dory boat owners in Pacific City, McMinnville and small towns in the area are invited to contribute their voice to a unique oral history project, one that will preserve the cultural traditions of one of the last dory fleets in the world. Linfield College students and professors interviewed 40 dory fishermen and women last summer, and hope to schedule more interviews for January. The project is capturing the voices and images of those who have played a role in the 100-year tradition at Pacific City — a tradition that survives despite numerous changes. Students are also collecting images, which will be digitized and made available to scholars and the public. The push to preserve the dory culture has been spearheaded by Linfield, in partnership with the Pacific City Arts Association and the Pacific City Dorymen’s Association. Initial interviews edited from interviews conducted last summer have been posted at digitalcommons.linfield.edu/dory. For more information, contact Linfield College professor Brenda DeVore Marshall by phone at (503) 883-2290 or bmarshal@ linfield.edu.

Developer to highlight vision for new resort ORETOWN — Developer John DeJong will highlight a proposed 105-acre planned destination resort during presentations to the Pacific CityWoods CPAC on Dec. 17. The forum will start at 10:30 a.m. at Pacific Coast Bible Church. Located near Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge, the Nestucca Sea Ranch development, currently in pre-application stage, calls for a 85- to 90room hotel, 16 condo units, and 50 residential lots. To meet Tillamook County’s requirement of at least 50 percent open space, the proposal is planning for a three-hole golf course, a community center, swimming pool, tennis courts, and trails. DeJong is developing the property for the Eulav Pearn Life Estate. For more information, call Tillamook County Department of Community Development at 503842-3408.

The event is annually sponsored by the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce and organized by the Christmas Committe, a subcommittee of the Chamber’s Cloverdale Committee. Porter reports that the event also collected two boxes of food that was donated to the South County Christmas Basket Program. Attendees were given one raffle ticket for each food item donated. Cami Goodman took home the raffle prize — a gift basket filled with more than $175 worth of merchandise donated by local businesses and community members.

Winning contributions Chamber lauds volunteers, top business during annual awards banquet
PAST CHAMBER PRESIDENTS Mary Jones and Rob Royster were lauded as 2011 Citizens of the Year during the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce’s annual Awards Banquet and Auction on Dec. 6. Below, the staff of the Pacific City branch of Oregon Coast Bank is all smiles after being singled out as the 2011 Business of the Year. Pictured below, far left is featured speaker Kerry Tymchuck. Though final figures were unavailable at press time, 2011 President Jeremy Strober expects the event to net between $4,000 and $5,000 for Chamber coffers — all of which, he says, will go to serve the community in one way or another.
By VICKY HIRSCH of the Sun PACIFIC CITY — The Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce held its annual awards banquet Dec. 6 at the Pelican Pub & Brewery in Pacific City. Attendees participated in both a silent and oral auction, dined on the Pelican Pub’s tasty fare and were entertained with historical anecdotes by Oregon Historical Society Executive Director Kerry Tymchuck. But the real highlight of the evening was the awards given for Volunteer of the Year, Business of the Year, and Citizen of the Year. John Griggs, 2011 Chamber Vice-president and owner of Cloverdale Pharmacy, presented the Volunteer of the Year award, which went to Dave Baxter, owner of Pacific City Homes. Griggs credited Baxter for his service as a Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce board member, and a member of the Pacific City Committee. He also thanked Baxter for being very active in the 4th of July fireworks and in Dory Days. “Basically, if it’s to be done around here we call on this gentleman because he can’t say no or he can’t spell it real well,” joked Griggs. Two volunteer recognition awards were given to Howard Goodman and Vern Mobley. Goodman is a member of the Chamber board as well as the Pacific City Committee. He works on putting the Pacific City Christmas tree up and was key to raising $6,000 for the 4th of July fireworks. Among many other volunteer jobs, Mobley is the voice of the oral auction every year at the Chamber banquet. Taking applause for the Chamber’s top business of the year was the Pacific City branch of Oregon Coast Bank. “Every year we do this we try to find a business of the year that has some distinguishing characters that have really gone the extra mile and they’ve really become an integral part of what’s going on in South Tillamook County,” said Griggs. Frank Brawner, who was on the bank’s board for a number of years and helped bring Oregon Coast Bank to Pacific City, said that banks have gotten a well deserved bad rap these days where you never get to a human being, but that Oregon Coast Bank is cut from a different mold. “There’s another type of bank in America and it’s called a community bank and that’s what you folks are,” said Brawner to the bank employees in attendance. He added that the Oregon Coast Bank workers are plugged into the community and singled out employees Danielle Hutton, who serves as secretary of the Cloverdale Committee, bank manager Rose Wharton, who serves in the Tillamook Bay Community College board, and Anne Price, who serves on the Pacific City Joint WaterSanitary board of directors. “We’re very proud of them and proud of our cus-

tomers and proud of the community we serve,” said Brawner. This year, the Chamber had a difficult time picking one individual to take home the Citizen of the Year award. Their solution? Pick two. Mary Jones and Rob Royster, both of whom have served the Chamber as presidents and continue to be deeply involved in events throughout the year, were lauded as co-Citizens of the Year. “Every year we try to single an individual out by your ballots and a review by the board as someone who has made a significant amount of contributions both to the chamber and our community,” said board member Doug Olson. “It was a difficult choice — so (we) chose two —Mary Jones and Rob Royster.” Royster owns the Sportsman’s Pub-N-Grub where he provides numerous jobs in the community. He has served as Chamber president and he has been with the Doryman’s Association since it was founded, serving on Page 8 • Pacific City Sun • December 16, 2011
the board and as an officer. He has also served as CPAC chair. “He’s a strong school supporter,” added Olson. “When we have Dory Days he usually steps up and does most of the fish fry. He’s one of those people that makes things happen.” 2011 Chamber president Jeremy Strober also had flowing praise for Jones. “She talks the talk and walks the walk,” he said. “She’s one that makes things happen in our community.” Jones and her husband and business partner Jeff Schons provide more than 100 jobs in the community with their Nestucca Ridge Family of Companies. She also helped secure the property for the Kiawanda Community Center, assisted with the Doryman’s Memorial and has served on the Chamber board, including a 1 ¼-year stint as president. Though at press time the Chamber only had preliminary figures in, Strober said he expects the organization to net between $4,000 and $5,000 from the event. “It all goes back to the community in one way or another,” he said. “This is about community tonight. It was really last year that sunk into me that commerce is community and community is commerce.” To learn more about the Pacific City-Nestucca Valley Chamber of Commerce, visit www.pacificcity.com or call 503-392-4340.

A Christmas tradition By SALLY RISSEL for the Sun ORETOWN — Every Christmas season, visiting motorists traveling along Highway 101 north of Neskowin routinely almost hit their brakes when they see the huge Christmas tree-shaped light display suspended on a hillside behind a longtime farm house. For many of the rest of us, we look forward to this unusual display of lights in an unlikely place. For 30 years, Bill and Pat Rock and family have constructed a 280-foot Christmas tree outline on the hill in back of their house. I asked Bill why and how he got the idea. “The hill was bare so I just decided to put up a tree,” he says. Bill Rock’s grandfather, Hardy Rock, came to Oretown in 1886 for his first view of the Pacific Ocean. He returned to Oregon City to file his claim in the area for a grassy piece of land with good pasture. He bought and raised sheep despite a constant threat of bears. For the first three years, Hardy was unable to make a living on the homestead, and he became a pioneer commuter between Oretown and the Willamette Valley where he worked in the harvest Photo by Tim Hirsch fields and assisted surveyIn what has become a holiday tradition in South Tillamook County for 30 ing parties to earn enough years, Bill and Pat Rock and family have constructed a 280-foot Christmas treemoney to carry him though shaped light display suspended on a hillside behind a longtime farmhouse. the winter. He also carried the mail for four years between Oretown and Grand Ronde. One year, he had to make the trip on foot carrying mail bags on his back because of the deep snow, which took three months to melt. A young women, Miss Alexandria (Lexie) Ley came to the Valley to teach in 1887 and immediately caught the eye of Hardy Rock. They were married in 1888 and raised three children: Gilbert, John and Jessie. John Rock married Evelyn Millie Etzwiler who came to South County in 1902.

By PAT GEFRE for the Sun In school you are taught a lesson then given a test. In life and nature you are given a test and then taught a lesson. There are no truer truths when it comes to understanding the subtleties of fishing. Or for that matter, hunting or dating — neither of which I was ever any good at. This December has been a strange one as far as the weather is concerned. Dry, no rain to speak of and we are supposed to be in the peak of the early Three Rivers run of hatchery steelhead. Because we have had little to no rain, steelhead have not shown up in Three Rivers in any numbers. The mouth of Three Rivers, where it enters the Nestucca, changed dramatically last winter when we had very high waters and flooding. The mouth of the river ended up splitting into three separate little rivers, none of which have enough water for Photo courtesy of Pat Gefre fish to move upstream in unless WINTER STEELHEAD are still out there — we have periods of higher water. but dry weather requires the implementation Added to that, the river bed of the of plan B.

‘Cats win league opener By DEE MOORE for the Sun CLOVERDALE — The Nestucca Bobcats (4-2) started league play on the right foot on Tuesday, Nov. 13, besting the Riverdale Mavericks 33-26 on the strength of a strong defensive presence and an aggressive offense. Though the Mavericks drew first blood scoring 45 seconds into the contest, it was the Bobcats’ defense that set the tone. The Cat’s made them fight for every shot they got. That said, the win wasn’t necessarily pretty. Nevertheless, boys varsity coach Jim Kiser was pleased with the win. “We snuck out of it with a win, but it was kind of ugly,” Kiser said. “Riverdale plays an aggressive physical defense that worked us over a bit, and we struggled to hit some outside shots, but because of our defense we were able to overcome it.” Though there were several ties early in the first, the ‘Cats took the lead for good mid-way through the first quarter behind the strong post play of Mike Tipton. Nick Ahn led the team with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Tyler Zeller had 8 rebounds and Cody Roos had 8 points. The ‘Cats had built a 14-9 lead by the time there was just 1:19 left in the first half. But the close of the second quarter saw the Mavericks surging, despite the fact that two players came up limping. Riverdale junior Josh Peltz left the floor with a minor ankle injury and teammate Nathan Hensleigh soon followed this with an ankle
injury of his own not long after he made a running jump shot to bring the Mavs within two, 14-12. It was 16-12 when the teams headed to the locker room. Though the pace slowed in the second half, the ‘Cats were able to build on their lead and took a 25-16 lead after three quarters after Tyler Zeller followed a strong rebound with a score. In the fourth, the Mavs pulled to within 25-20 but Nestucca responded with a run of their own, cementing their 33-26 win. “We’ve been playing pretty well as of late,” said Kiser. “That was our third win in a row. Defensively we’ve been playing really well.” Kiser is pleased with how far the team has come this season. “We’re now 4 and 2 on the season.

ON THE STRENGTH OF 19 points by Nick Ahn (above), the Nestucca Bobcats opened league play with a 33-26 triumph over the Riverdale Mavericks on Tuesday, Nov. 13. The 4-2 (overall) ‘Cats next face the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates at home on Friday, Dec. 16 followed by a trip to Amity on Dec. 20. They’re also slated to participate in the Gervais Tournament from Dec. 27-28.
No significant injuries to speak of. Mike Tipton has been a huge factor for us in
the middle of our defense. His size and smarts have been giving teams fits,” said Kiser. “We’ve been rebounding the ball better than we did early in the season.” But he does see room for improvement. “Offensively we’ve been a little up and down. Patience on offense has been a real problem. We rush a lot of shots, but we’ve been getting better at slowing ourselves down and running our offense

a little more,” he said. Though Riverdale did a pretty good job defending Mike Tipton, according to Kiser, the post had 8 rebounds and was able to block several shots. The Bobcats next action is Friday, Dec. 16 when the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates come to town. They’ll then hit the road on Dec. 20 to face Amity and will enter a tournament in Gervais Dec. 27-28.

THE LADY BOBCATS continue to struggle and opened league play with a 64-29 defeat to the Riverdale Mavericks on Dec. 13. The girls next chance to get back in the win column is a Friday, Dec. 16 home contest against the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates.
Mavs dominate Lady ‘Cats as league play opens By DEE MOORE for the Sun CLOVERDALE — The Lady Cats (1-5) lost their league opener 64-29 to the Riverdale Mavericks on Dec. 13. The game marks the latest in a series of lopsided defeats. The ‘Cats have also fallen victim to Sheridan 49-23, Santiam 58-13, Portland Lutheran 45-19, and Willamina 61-25. Right from the tip-off, Riverdale dominated the court. They set the stage for a very aggressive game, taking control of the court with the first basket of the season. The rest of the quarter was much the same with the Lady Mavs racking up points as they made basket after basket. This was in part due to a height advantage. The Mavericks had five players 5’ 9” or taller. In addition to this they had a superior passing game enabling them to hurl the ball across the court. The visiting team soon figured out that junior Jasmine Bosia was a threat and their defense rode her hard, preventing her numerous attempts to put the ball through the hoop. It was not long before Bosia was on the bench thanks to several fouls. Meanwhile, Riverdale scored again and again and again. The fourth quarter brought tragedy for Nestucca. Two minutes into the quarter the Cats already had 6 fouls while Riverdale had racked up 3. And then Lacy Bosia went down with a scream. The game was halted while
coaches and staff attended the junior. She appeared to have dislocated her arm. The Cat’s returned to the game motivated, but by this time the game was out of reach as the Mavs held a commanding 49-12 lead. Though losing Tuesday’s game was hard on the team, given Lacy Bosia’s injury, Head Coach BJ Chatelain was pleased with their performance. “They did a good job getting some good looks at the basket and for the most part we played our best game of the year so far. Jasmine Boisa led our team with 13 pts and Natasha Helsing had 8,” he said. Losing Bosia was a hard hit to the team who’d already lost Brittney Hurlimann due to a consussion earlier in the season. “Lacy Boisa went down with a separated shoulder and is lost for the season. She had a similar injury last year during volleyball and missed a lot of time the first half of the basketball (season),” Chatelain said. “We are getting better, but the losses and the injuries are taxing. Others (players) will get more playing time and this will make them better and hopefully we continue to improve and get better,” he added. The girls next chance to get back in the win column is a Friday, Dec. 16 home contest against the Neah-Kah-Nie Pirates. They’ll then hit the road on Dec. 20 to face Amity and will enter a tournament in Gervais Dec. 27-28.
