Manzanita city hall opens for business

Several hundred community members gathered on Manzanita Avenue on August 2, to celebrate the completion of Manzanita’s new city hall and police station with speeches, a flag raising, a ribbon cutting and tours of the facilities.

Manzanita Mayor Kathryn Stock and City Manager Leila Aman expressed deep gratitude to city leaders and staff past and present, local organizations who had supported the project and the team that undertook it and said they were excited for the new city hall to welcome the community.

“As we open this new city hall, we honor not just a building, but our community; one grounded in service, resilience and sheer purpose,” Aman said. “May this space inspire civic responsibility and may it welcome every voice and guide us always to work for the public good.”

The crowd began to gather in front of the new city hall on a sunny Saturday morning as a DJ played music, attendees enjoyed snacks and kids participated in activities organized by the Hoffman Center for the Arts.

After Stock welcomed the group, Bob La Torre played the national anthem on trumpet while Manzanita Police Sergeant Mike Scott and veteran Chuck Bridge raised the flag over the building.

Aman then addressed the crowd and thanked many of the people who had contributed to the project’s success. “This project was many years in the making, decades in fact, so my role today is to recognize the many hands and hearts who helped envision, plan and build this space,” Aman said.

Thanked first were the city councilors who had taken part in the project’s planning, approval and construction. Aman specially thanked Councilor Linda Kozlowski, who led public listening sessions in the wake of a failed 2019 vote seeking support for a tax increase to pay for the project.

After city council reaffirmed their commitment to building a new city hall and police station in 2020 and directed city staff to find funding sources to support the facility, the listening sessions helped to inform a preliminary plan, completed and approved by council in 2021.

Tillamook council prepares to raise water rates

Tillamook’s city council was briefed on needed water rate increases at their meeting on August 4, learning that an 18% rate increase will be necessary each of the next five years to maintain the water fund’s solvency.

City Manager Sean Lewis told councilors that the recommendation had been made in a recently completed water rate study and said that staff would be bringing the 18% increase to council for approval soon.

Another Tillamook County Fair is in the books, after a four days of music, food, rides, animals and so much more from August 6-9.

The week kicked off on a drizzly Wednesday that saw the Pig n’ Ford association forced to cancel their first day of racing but ended with three days of beautiful weather, culminating in Saturday night’s Pig n’ Ford championship race and demolition derby.

This year, the fair celebrated the Pig n’ Ford races centennial anniversary, with booths around the fair getting in on the fun, limited edition, commemorative souvenirs available for sale and a driver meet and greet on Friday night.

Ben Salo won the centennial championship in the #20 car owned by his father Ken, with the Walker franchise #13 car finishing second and the Prince #15 car coming in third.

Exhibit halls at the fairground were busy throughout the week as locals showed off their green thumbs and handiwork, while area youth showed a plethora of farm animals as part of FFA and 4H competitions.

Music returns to Bay City with Pearl and Oyster Festival

Staff report

Bay City’s fourth annual Pearl and Oyster Festival is scheduled to bring a weekend of music and family fun to Al Griffin Memorial Park on August 23 and 24.

As in past years, Saturday will see a full day of live performances from professional bands before Sunday is dedicated to kids, with a talent show and other activities, games and entertainment for the youth.

First held in 2019, the festival was envisioned as a celebration of the city and a way to attract visitors and returned for its second edition in 2023 after a three-year pandemic hiatus.

Each year, the festival shuts down Fourth Street in Bay City, as dozens of vendors offer their wares, while Al Griffin Memorial Park is transformed into a concert venue featuring two stages.

On Saturday, the main stage will play host to three cover bands, with Creedence Clearwater Revival tribute band Tombstone Shadows playing the first set at 1 p.m. Grand Royale, a Beastie Boys tribute band, performing at 4 p.m. and Eagle Eyes wrapping up the evening

with renditions of Eagles’ favorites at 7. The second stage in the park will host two performances by Hope Montgomery & The Invasive Species at 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.

A beer and wine garden will be hosted by Clatsop Distributing and Grocery Outlet and food will also be available for purchase.

On Sunday, kids will take center stage with games, music and chalk art on offer and the opportunity for kids to set up their own vendor table with no charge from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

A pet parade will start the day’s festivities at 11 a.m., with kids

encouraged to bring their furry pal and to be prepared to walk several blocks with them. At noon, a local kids’ band will perform and at 1 p.m., an open-mic hour will give kids a chance to prepare for the talent show.

Kicking off at 2 p.m., the third annual kids’ talent show is open to those aged zero to 18, has five categories and a five-minute time limit per performer, and offers a cash prize. To register for the talent show and find more information about the weekend’s activities visit baycitypearlandoysterfestival.com.

Lewis started his presentation on the rates with a refresher on the current rates being paid by water and sewer customers in the city, with the base water rate costing $15.04 monthly, sewer at $92.68 and an optional leak protection $2.80, for a total bill of $110.52. Lewis explained that 80% of the city’s residential customers used the allotted 2,999 gallons or less and paid the base rate and said that consumption charges started at $10.93 for 3,000-4,000 gallons of usage and went up from there.

In the spring, council had discussed increasing the base water rate by 5%, which would have raised customers’ bills to $112.78, but elected to wait until the water rate study was complete to decide a path forward.

Lewis presented two options for increasing the water rate, with the first being a phased increase of 15%, with a 5% bump in July and 10% in January, which would raise customers’ base bill to $112.78. The second option was to increase rates by the recommended 18%, which would see the base rate jump by $2.71, and monthly bills rise to $113.25.

Lewis explained that either option would include matching increases to consumption charges for those using over 3,000 gallons monthly.

Lewis then discussed the water rate study that recommended the increase, saying that the study had shown the city would need to make 18% annual increases every year for the next five years for the city’s water fund to remain solvent. Lewis said that this would mean a $124.06 monthly base bill for residential users after five years with steady sewer rates, though those also need to be updated in the coming months.

Lewis said that he planned to start the public noticing process required under Oregon Law for the rate increases and bring the recommended 18% increase to one of the council’s next meetings. The city’s water rate was last increased by 5% in 2022, and the sewer rate was last increased by 4% in 2021. Councilor Nick Torres asked how the city’s rates would compare to neighboring cities and water districts after the

Harrier lands at Tillamook Air Museum, on display in Hangar B

WILL CHAPPELL Headlight Editor

Hundreds of aviation enthusiasts gathered around the perimeter of the Tillamook Airport on August 4, for the delivery of a McDonnell-Douglas AV8B Harrier II ground-attack jet to the Tillamook Air Museum at the Port of Tillamook Bay.

After arriving from China Lake, California, the aircraft’s pilot performed several low fly-bys before putting on an extensive demonstration of the plane’s hover and turn maneuvers, and short takeoff and landing capabilities.

Following the demonstration and a short decommissioning, members of the public were given an opportunity to take photos and meet the pilot before the craft was moved into Hangar B for preparation to be exhibited in the museum.

Career fair at Tillamook Youth Facility offers youth a vision of what’s possible

Oregon Youth Authority On July 25, youth at Tillamook Youth Correctional Facility and Camp Tillamook got a glimpse of what their futures could hold. The career fair, organized by the Oregon Youth Authority (OYA) and Trask River High School, brought local employers, military recruiters and community college representatives to the school’s gymnasium. Partici-pants shared job leads, skill-build-

ing advice and real-world opportunities with OYA youth.

According to Jennifer Falzerano, OYA’s statewide education coordinator, the agency hosts career fairs at its facilities “to offer hope.” Tillamook-area WorkSource Oregon manager Angeline Chan-Pepper echoed this sentiment, saying, “we want to help them to be as successful as they can be.”

That work to set youth up for success began well before

the fair. Educators at Trask River High School prepared students with pre-fair sessions on respectful introductions, follow-up questions and how to show active interest. One youth said the preparation helped him understand how to be professional while still “letting us be ourselves.”

“That ability to communicate meaningfully,” said Trask River Principal David Miller, “is a skill set that may

ultimately be more important than the job itself.” With skills like these, youth will leave OYA better positioned to survive in the world. Students were encouraged to keep an open mind and, as one youth noted, to realize that “even if I don’t get to do my first choice, I still have backup options — and there’s good options.”

That led to the hiring of Bearing Architecture to develop schematic designs for the project and Klosh Group to serve as owner’s representatives, with plans completed in spring 2023. During the plan development process, the team identified Business Oregon’s Special Public Works Fund as a funding source, with council approving a loan of $4.6 million at a 2.1% interest rate from the fund in December 2023. Groundbreaking took place in March 2024, and work progressed on schedule and budget throughout construction, with substantial completion occurring in May 2025, and city staff moving in beginning in June.

Aman thanked Melanie Olson from Business Oregon for pointing the city to the Special Public Works Fund, Chris Keane and Andrew Hamblin from Bearing for a design that matched the city’s budget while honoring the community, Jesse Steiger from Klosh Group for her support as owner’s representative, Jason Stegner, Dave Cram and Carolina Lysse from Cove Built for

leading the construction and city attorneys James Walker, Souvanny Miller and Christi Taylor. Aman said that while she was happy to see the project completed, she would miss working with the project team and thanked them for their diligence. “This was the most rewarding professional experience of my career,” Aman said, “so I want to thank all of you who were involved for your integrity, your hard work and your commitment to serving Manzanita.”

After Aman’s remarks, Stock returned to the microphone and thanked the various local leaders present, including State Senator Suzanne Weber, State Representative Cyrus Javadi, Tillamook County Commissioner Mary Faith Bell, Tillamook Sheriff Josh Brown, Tillamook Coast Visitor’s Association Executive Director Nan Devlin, Tillamook Peoples’ Utility District General Manager Todd Simmons and Neah-Kah-Nie Superintendent Tyler Reed, for their support. Stock also thanked local nonprofits who had representatives present, especially the Pine Grove Community House that hosted city council meetings during construction. Then, before leading the ribbon cutting on the new facility and welcoming attendees to tour it, Stock addressed the community as a whole, thanking them for

making the city what it is.

“So, whether you’re volunteering or whether you’re just being a great member of the community, you’re a golfer, you’re on the dragon boat team, whatever it is you love to do in this town, just

increase, and Lewis said that it would not move the needle in comparison to Tillamook’s peer cities. Mayor Aaron Burris asked about the water system’s condition, noting

that the sewer system’s inadequacy was already preventing new development on the east side of the city. Lewis said that the water system was currently

humming along but that it would only take one issue for it to also become a major area of concern and that a city cannot have one without the other.

Advisory committee members selected to advance West Coast Ocean Initiative

Administrators of the nation’s two national ocean science trusts said they have taken a key next step in the development of the West Coast Ocean Science Action Agenda by announcing initial appointments to an advisory committee. The committee will provide strategic oversight and

validation of coastwide agenda implementation, emphasizing fairness, representation, and balance of voices needed to deliver on ocean science priorities for the coming decade. As the U.S. West Coast faces the impacts of a changing climate - including heatwaves, coastal storms, changing ocean chemistry, and sea-level rise

- advancing scientific knowledge and solutions is critical. The agenda will identify shared science priorities and co-create science funding structures that can deliver on these needs.

Laura Anderson, Chair of the Oregon Ocean Science Trust, expressed support for the agenda and advisory committee members that will contribute to its success.

“Ocean science protects lives, fuels innovation, and strengthens coastal economies,” said Anderson. “We’re excited to welcome advisory committee members to this region-wide initiative to bring to the table unique voices and perspectives that will help us deliver a robust agenda.”

The trusts are partnering with the West Coast Ocean Alliance and the West Coast Ocean Tribal Caucus to authentically listen to Tribal science priorities and lift those into the shared priorities identified in the agenda.

“The West Coast Ocean Alliance, including its membership of tribal and state governments from throughout the region, is very much looking forward to the opportunity to share their ocean science

priorities,” West Coast Ocean Alliance Executive Director John Hansen said. “The advisory committee will play an essential role in providing accountability to inclusively listening and learning, and demonstrating how all government partners can be heard in a meaningful way.”

As the trusts expand partnerships in Washington, additional members will be welcomed to the Advisory Committee to ensure appropriate consideration of shared science priorities from the breadth of the U.S. West Coast.

“It is an honor to partner with the members of the advisory committee,” California Ocean Science Trust Executive Director Liz Whiteman said. “They bring an incredible diversity of perspectives and experience in the science-topolicy sector. I look forward to learning from their expertise to collectively realize the vision of the agenda.”

Advisory committee appointments:

• Becky Smyth, recently with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

• Dr. Clarissa Anderson, Southern California Coastal

Ocean Observing System

• Dominique Kone, Blue Convergence Fund

• Kate Wing, Intertidal Agency

• Dr. Jan Newton, University of Washington and Northwest Association of Networked Ocean Observing System

• Dr. Matthew Gribble, University of California, San Francisco

• Dr. Priya Shukla, Strategic Earth Consulting

• Dr. Rod Fujita, Ocean Innovations Consulting

• Dr. Roxanne Beltran, University of California, Santa Cruz

• Sabrina Lopez, PhD Student, Coastal Climate Resilience Fellow

• Dr. Will White, Oregon State University

As part of the application process, advisory committee members shared perspectives on their diverse interests associated with U.S. West Coast ocean and coastal research needs. Ensuring historically underrepresented voices are included in agenda strategies, considering strategies that address both threats and opportunities facing the U.S. West Coast, developing strategies that lead to action-

able science, and leveraging funding across federal, state, and philanthropic sources, were a few of the concepts expressed by potential members.

For example, Becky Smyth, recently with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and selected for the advisory committee, emphasized the urgency of the effort.

“The advancement of this West Coast Ocean Science Action Agenda comes at a critical time,” Smyth said. “With the dual challenges of rapidly changing ocean conditions due to climate change and other pressures and the decrease in funding for research and science, this science action agenda can help us envision the needs and opportunities for important research to understand and sustain our valuable West Coast ocean resources.”

One option that surprised youth was the apprenticeship program promoted by the sprinkler fitters’ union.

“You look up… especially somewhere like Costco, and you don’t really think about who installs those,” said one student. “I didn’t know this

Several youths said the opportunity made unfamiliar careers feel more accessible, even with their justice involvement and varying timelines for release. For OYA and its partners, that’s the goal: not just to inform, but to expand what youth see as possible.

At Trask River High School, this mission goes be-

yond a single event. Serving around thirty high-schoolaged youth and fifteen young adults between nineteen and twenty-five, the school offers both academic and hands-on learning. Youth explore a wide va-riety of trades — from culinary arts to bike repair, basic construction to coding, black-smithing to drone piloting. This exposure helps students earn licenses, certifications and degrees, while building a foundation for success in the modern workforce. Through its

partnership with Tillamook Bay Community College, students can also ex-plore what higher learning may offer them.

That foundation of skills, exposure, and encouragement is what makes events like the career fair so meaningful. Youth begin to see where they fit and how they can contrib-ute. As Principal Miller put it: “Confidence leads to courage. Courage builds capacity. And hope — hope wins in the end.”

Thank you for help with Coast Guard appreciaiton

I would like to thank our sponsors and volunteers that helped make Coast Guard Appreciation Day a wonderful event! A big thank you to Eric and Trina Lessor of Bunker Grill for donating the delicious BBQ with all the trimmings, Clatsop Distributors for their generous beverage donations, the Port of Garibaldi for all of their support and use of the event tent along with the City of Garibaldi , the Coast Guard Auxiliary for help in setting up the event along with Judy Riggs, Carolee North and Wendy Woodrum.

Special thanks to emcee Steve Denning and bartender Mark Riggs and Oregon Coast Event Company for always going the extra mile. Scott Casey and the Bandits kept the place lively with their country rock and a wonderful turnout of Coast Guard members and families who enjoyed the afternoon especially the bubble ball competition with the Garibaldi Fire Department made it a perfect day. Looking forward to next year.

GARDENING MATTERS

Embracing the Summer

As we Tillamook gardeners know only too well, August in the Pacific Northwest is a time of abundance and transition, when gardens brim with the bounty of summer yet whisper hints of autumn’s approach. The North Oregon Coast is renowned for its temperate climate, gentle rains and mild summers, making it a gardener’s paradise. However, August presents its own unique set of tasks, challenges and opportunities for those tending the land in our lovely corner of the world.

In a typical year, August sees the warmest weather of the summer with average temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to low 80s inland and cooler temperatures the closer you get to the coast. We generally see very little rain in August, and this year we have seen even less than normal since late May. Sometimes we get a little smoky haze from distant wildfires, but the ocean breezes seem to move that along. The region’s famous drizzle often gives way to months of dry weather, so irrigation and water management become critical for gardeners.

For many vegetable gardeners, August is the high point of the gardening year. The fruits of spring labor are now ripe for the picking. Tomatoes, peppers, beans, zucchinis, cucumbers and corn

their peak. Blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and late strawberries burst with flavor, ready to be gathered by the bowlful. Herbs such as basil, thyme and parsley are lush and aromatic, eager for harvest or drying. We need to harvest regularly to encourage continued production and prevent overripening or pest problems.

When it gets extra warm, it’s important to check vegetable and fruit crops daily, as many can go from perfect to overripe in a matter of days. Regularly removing spent or diseased produce helps maintain plant health and reduce pest populations. For crops like cucumbers and beans, picking every other day ensures continued harvests well into September.

Despite the coast’s reputation for rain, August is typically quite dry, leaving gardens thirsty. As we have discussed before, infrequent but deep watering is preferred to light, frequent sprinkles. Deep watering

encourages roots to grow deeper and become more resilient to drought. Early morning is the best time to water, reducing evaporation and minimizing fungal diseases that can take hold in the cooler, damp evenings. Mulching with straw, leaves or compost helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds and keep roots cool.

We should also observe our soils for signs of depletion. By August, many nutrients have been consumed, especially by heavy feeders like tomatoes and squash. Side-dressing with compost or an organic fertilizer can give plants a second wind and improve late-summer yields.

Late August is not only about enjoying the summer harvest; it’s also the time to begin the transition to autumn crops. Our mild climate provides an extended growing season, making it possible to sow seeds for fall and winter harvests. Cool-season vegetables such as kale, spinach, arugula, radishes, carrots and beets can be replanted now. It’s wise to choose quick-maturing varieties and provide some shade or extra water during germination, as hot days can inhibit sprouting.

If you have empty beds after harvesting garlic or early potatoes, consider planting cover crops like crimson clover or winter rye. These will protect soil from

erosion, suppress weeds and add organic matter for next year’s garden.

August can bring its share of garden pests, from aphids and cabbage worms to slugs searching for damp refuges. Regular inspection, removal of infested leaves, and encouraging beneficial insects like ladybugs and lacewings are crucial steps. I try to avoid using broadspectrum pesticides that harm pollinators and other helpers. Powdery mildew may appear on squash and cucumbers during warm, humid weather; removing affected leaves and improving air circulation can help manage outbreaks.

Perhaps most importantly, August is a time to savor the beauty and success of our gardens. Whether it’s the taste of a sun-warmed tomato (if you are lucky enough to grow one), the scent of blooming lavender or the sight of pollinators flitting among blossoms, these experiences are the true rewards of gardening where we do. Amidst the busy work, take a moment to relax in the shade, enjoy the fruits of your labor, and reflect on lessons learned for next year’s growing season.

August should be a celebration — a time to relax, to harvest, to maintain and to enjoy the warm sun and the ocean breeze.

It was a musical couple of days along the Oregon coast. On Aug. 4 in Bay City, our own Doctor Twang (Mike Olson, when flying under his own colors here in Cape Meares) played with Bless-ing Chimanga, a Zimbabwean marimba player and songwriter. The group played to a packed house, including 20+ Cape Mearesians. It was a high energy, vibrant performance. Those who could, danced; those who couldn’t, danced in their seats. The Bay City Arts Center hosted this de-lightful summer event. Come back again next year. Closer to home, Kathy Burke hosted a movie night on Aug. 5 at the Barbara Bennett Community Center. Kathy showed the movie “Mamma Mia,” a perennial favorite among the ladies, and used the occasion to introduce us to one of her daughters and granddaughters, who were here for a summer visit.

an enjoyable trip to Ilwaco, Wash., in late July to join a group of 80 participants on a barge trip to Long Island, Wash. The outing was organized by the Friends of Willapa National Wildlife Refuge. As Long Island is accessible to visitors only by boat, the trip started with a lovely 30-minute ride in Willapa Bay on a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service barge. The adventuresome group then hiked about two miles round trip through a mostly mature hemlock forest to view a grove of ancient red cedars. The trees in the grove are nearly 1000 years old. Given its protected position near the center of the island, the grove survived the tsunami of 1700 and later extensive logging that was done on the island.

plants are happy (so are the slugs) and grass is greening up. It was a nice steady rain and brought some of that magical liquid to the soil.

The concert that was held at the Bay City Arts Center on August 5th, featuring Blessed Bled Chimanga was fabulous and one of the best events I’ve been to in a while. He and his family had such energy, played fast paced marimba music, some reggae too, and their dancing was incredible. That energy and positivity moved through the crowd, and everyone was up dancing and enjoying themselves.

OBITUARIES

Robin Lynn Buchholz (Leedy)

Oct. 21, 1956 - 2025

Robin was born in Portland, Oregon on October 21, 1956. She graduated from Rex Putnam

High School in 1974. In high school she had a great group of friends that called themselves “The Explorers Club” who went on many hiking and caving adventures together. She sang in the choir throughout school and also played the bagpipes. Robin joined the Air Force in 1975 and served until honorably discharged in 1977. She worked at several jobs in different fields before landing at the State. Robin worked for the State of Oregon for over 20 years before retiring in January 2022.

Robin faced many challenges in her life, but she persevered. She was a strong Christian who loved the Lord and her faith was very important to her; she consid-

ered herself a prayer warrior. She loved her children (and grandchildren and nieces and nephews) and would do anything to support them.

Robin had a lifelong love of gardening, sewing, crocheting, cooking, and baking. She was an avid reader and she loved writing. Robin was a naturally curious and creative person, always looking to learn something new or interesting. She passed many of her skills and passions to her children and her friends; she was extremely well loved and will be greatly missed.

Robin is survived by her children Aimee McAdams, Gwen Lewis, and Aaron Cloudwood; her two sons-inlaw, both of them Jeremys, and her daughter-in-law

“You know,” my wife said to me as we settled down to slices of cheese and apple for lunch, “we’re eating pretty well off of the food our friends have brought us.”

“You’re right,” I said. The cheese came from a block of sharp cheddar brought by a friend who works at the Tillamook Creamery. As one of his job perks, he brings home cheese, and better yet, ice cream, to shares with friends. We primed the pump when he brought over the cheddar, suggesting that Oregon Dark Cherry ice cream from Tillamook was our current favorite. Our friend brought the cheddar while we were hosting a yard sale with our neighbors, whose house fronts a much higher-traffic road. (We’re on a short, noexit street—sounds so much nicer than dead-end. Lovely place to live, not so much to catch the eyes of people walking past.)

Another friend stopped by after catching his limit of coho salmon on a fishing expedition out of Garibaldi. He gave us two lovely fillets, which we popped into the fridge for later. We had one of them for dinner the following night, baked with paper-thin slices of onion and lemon on top to give a savory, citrusy tang to the delicate but creamy salmon. As summer deepens, other neighbors have been bringing vegetables plucked from their garden, most recently a

the Bay City Booster Club will be holding their long running, very popular, annual rummage sale. There will be many treasures to find there and information on all the projects that both the Booster Club and Beautification committee work on. Might be a good time to join the group. Items at the

Anne; her grandchildren Amaya and Harriet; her sister Laurie and brother Larry; her niece and nephews Amanda, Zachary, and Anthony; her great-nieces and nephewsJessica, Bailey, Claire, Rosie, Caleb, Chloe, Remy, June, Colt and Sage; as well as her extremely spoiled and wellloved cat Yoshi.

Preceding Robin in death are her daughter Jessica; her parents Don & Shirley Leedy; and her nephew Jason.

Her children are planning a gathering to celebrate her life on the afternoon of Sunday, August 17th. Please reach out for further details.

Death Notice

cabbage the size of a soccer ball. Half went into a spicy Hunan chicken dish; the rest we shredded later to stand in for fettuccine under chicken breasts in a Dijon cream sauce. When a food writer marries a French-trained chef, dinner is never dull. We are of course equally generous. Whenever a neighbor is ill, recovering from surgery or worse, we’re there with dinner. We brought a kettle of Italian soup with Tuscan kale, cannellini beans and zucchini to our vegetarian neighbor the week her mom passed away. When another friend had back surgery, we showed up with baked eggplant parmigiana. And the neighbor who co-hosted our yard sale with us got a big chunk of that same salmon. (She ate two big bites sitting in her recliner while we waited, then saved the rest for later.)

Living here often reminds me of the fable about stone soup. As I first heard it, about the age of eight, a soldier passing through a remote village in eastern Europe asked

rummage sale are not priced, just make a reasonable offer. The funds from this sale are the main fundraiser of the year, and those funds benefits the many outreach activities the club does throughout the community. Volunteers will also be at the new park to welcome people and answer any questions visitors may have. Over the last few weeks some of our local artists’ works have been installed at the park to add to the overall aesthetic of the space. There are also benches for you to sit and rest on and enjoy the view.

the people for something to eat but was coldly refused by the suspicious villagers.

So, he searched the town square for a stone of just the right size, shape, and texture—which piqued the villagers’ curiosity. He washed it at the fountain, filled a cooking pot with water, and added the stone as he built a fire under the pot.

“Whatever are you doing?” the villagers asked.

“I’m making stone soup,” he replied. “It’s an old family recipe.”

They shook their heads. Stone soup? Impossible.

“Well,” the soldier said, “it’s better with a few carrots and an onion.” A neighbor stopped by with some, still doubtful of the result.

“Is that it?” another villager asked.

“Well, my grandmother always put in a few pieces of chicken for flavor…” Out came a hen, plucked and chopped, and into the simmering pot it went.

Others questioned: no potatoes? No green beans? No parsnips or herbs? Soon the villagers and their contributions crowded around the soldier, waiting for a taste of the impossible stone soup.

As the aroma spread throughout town, the locals started showing up—first with bowls, of course, but then with bottles of wine, loaves of bread, and other hidden delicacies.

The soldier stirred the stone soup, sipped carefully

Fridays at noon at the main Tillamook Library, the summer music series continues with performances on 8/15 with the Northwest flute duo, 8/22 Lauren Shehan and 8/29 Rockin’ Man.

from the wooden spoon, and declared it done.

The whole village praised it as the best stone soup they had ever tasted. One household put the soldier up for the night and reluctantly bade him farewell when he went on his way the next morning.

But they never forgot his stone soup.

In 2022, in my first meeting with then-mayor Sue Wilson, she spoke affectionately about how people in small towns like Rockaway Beach look out for each other. It’s our version of stone soup. What do you like to add to yours?

Department (OPRD) explained that the fee increases and additions were necessary because state parks were seeing increasing costs, record visitation and a drop

in lottery funds that support the department’s operations. The release said that the department was also looking at ways to reduce costs internally and new ways to generate revenue to maintain its current service levels.

“State parks are some of the most beloved spaces in Oregon, but we have struggled as a state to sustainably fund them,” OPRD Director Lisa Sumption said in the release. “We’re working to reimagine the future of

Oregon Parks as a financially resilient system that will serve generations to come.” OPRD relies on three main sources of funding, with a little less than half their budget coming from dedicated lottery funds, around 15% from recreational vehicle license fees and 35% coming

TCCH celebrates National Health Center week

The 2025 National Health Center Week (August 3-9) theme of celebrating the past, present and future aligns perfectly as the Tillamook County Community Health Centers celebrates nearly a century of providing healthcare services to the community including 30 years as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC). The Tillamook County Health Department, known as the Tillamook County Community Health Centers (TCCHC), received the FQHC designation in 1995. As an FQHC, TCCHC is selected by the federal government to receive special funding to provide comprehensive, high-quality, accessible care including medical, behavioral, and dental health, to anyone who needs it regardless of ability to pay. The Tillamook County Community Health Centers is both a Federally Qualified Health Center and the Health and Human Services Department for Tillamook County providing integrated clinical and public health services as the Local Public Health Authority.

While services have expanded significantly since the 1980s, there is a much more extensive history dating back to the early 1900s. See a historical timeline infographic here and learn more about the history and progress of the Tillamook County Community Health Centers here.

TILLAMOOK MEDICAL MINUTE

Eric Klein, MD

Urologist at Adventist Health Tillamook

When it comes to our health, conversations about the urinary tract aren’t always easy to start — but they’re important for everyone. Urology isn’t just a “men’s health” specialty. It covers conditions affecting both men and women, from adolescence through older age, and can play a key role in quality of life.

Urologic health involves the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra, as well as the male reproductive system.

Common issues include kidney stones, urinary incontinence, urinary tract infections, prostate problems, and cancers of the bladder or kidneys. These conditions are far more common than many realize. Nationally, about 1

in 3 women will experience urinary incontinence during their lifetime, often related to childbirth or aging. Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men, with 1 in 8 diagnosed at some point. Kidney stones affect about 1 in 11 people in the U.S., and bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer overall, affecting both men and women.

Certain ages and risk factors call for more attention. Men over 50, and those with higher risk due to family history or ethnicity, are often advised to discuss prostate cancer screening with their

healthcare provider. Women over 40 should speak up about bladder leakage, frequent urinary tract infections, or pelvic discomfort. These symptoms are not just an inevitable part of getting older and may be improved with treatment. Blood in the urine, unexplained pain in the side or back, or difficulty urinating should be evaluated promptly in anyone, regardless of age. People with diabetes, high blood pressure, or a history of smoking have higher risks for some urologic conditions and may benefit from earlier or more frequent checks.

The good news is that many urologic conditions are treatable and, in some cases, preventable. Advances in medicine and technology now allow for earlier detection, minimally invasive procedures, and a wide range of non-surgical options. Many treatments that once required travel to larger medical centers are now available in communities like ours, making it easier for patients to access care and follow-up close to home.

Urologic health can be a sensitive topic but avoiding it can mean missing the chance to catch problems early when

they’re often easier to treat. Paying attention to changes, reporting symptoms promptly, and making urology part of routine health discussions with a primary care provider are important steps in protecting long-term health. By talking openly, staying informed, and seeking care when it’s needed, individuals can take control of their urologic health and maintain comfort, confidence, and well-being at every stage of life.

appealed a city council decision approving an application to modify a Planned Unit Development (PUD) that the City originally approved in 2008, and to authorize construction of Phase 2 of the original PUD approval. LUBA issued its Final Opinion and Order (No. 2025-001) on July 2, 2025. LUBA sustained two assignments of error and concluded that a remand is appropriate to allow the City to adopt more adequate findings, per OAR 661-010-20 0071(2)(a). The first assignment of error relates to the application of the Special Area Wetlands Zone. The second assignment of error relates to the application of an expiration date on the 2008 PUD approval, or lack thereof. A copy of the LUBA’s Final Opinion and Order (No. 2025-001) is posted on the City of Rockaway Beach website or physical copies available upon request. In order to address the issues raised by LUBA’s Final Opinion and Order (No. 2025-001), the public hearing will consist of a de novo review, in which City Council will accept new evidence and argument limited to the two assignments of error on which LUBA remanded to the City. Timeline for Submittal of Evidence and Testimony: Any and all interested parties may submit new written evidence and testimony, only related to the issues on remand, no later than August 19, 2025. Applicant may submit rebuttal evidence and testimony (only addressing new evidence and testimony submitted) by August 26, 2025. Any

interested member of the public may also attend the hearing, at the above date, time, and location, to provide oral testimony and comment to City Council directly. Only comments and testimony on the relevant assignments of error and issues remanded to the City under the LUBA decision shall be considered relevant evidence. If submitting comments prior to the hearing, deliver to the City Hall at the address given above, email to cityplanner@corb.us, or mail to Planning Department at P.O. Box 5, Rockaway Beach, OR 97136. Please use file number #Remand-25-1 on written comments, and include your name, mailing address, and phone number. The staff report will be prepared no less than seven days prior to the hearing for review at City Hall. Hard copies will be available upon request to the City free of cost. All other documents and evidence related to this land use action shall be incorporated into an Official Record and made available for review at City Hall upon request. Failure to raise an issue, in person or in writing, before the conclusion of the hearing and close of the record, or the failure to provide sufficient statement, evidence, or testimony to afford the City Council an opportunity to respond to the issue, precludes an appeal of City Council’s decision on the remanded issues. Following the close of the public hearing and record on remand, the City Council will deliberate and reach a decision on this re-

manded matter #Remand-25-1. The City Council’s decision shall be mailed to the applicant and any other person who submitted written comments or is otherwise legally entitled to notice. If you have questions concerning this review on remand, please contact the Responsible Official below. Responsible Official: Abram Tapia City Planner, (503) 3741752, cityplanner@corb.us 8/12/25
