Manzanita Listens – but who are they listening to?

Four out of five elected public officials care more for investors than the people who elected them.
Go to https://youtu.be/GOqSEVkcklQ if you missed last Wednesday’s council meeting.

Imbedded in the meeting was a public hearing about annexation of some undeveloped land.
Several citizens asked why the land was being annexed and got no answer. Three out of five elected public officials voted “yes” to the annexation, with one abstaining.
Later in the meeting it was time to vote on the much hoped for freeze on STRs. In March council had asked our city manager, Leila Aman to draw up a resolution holding STRs to 260 for three years. Leila drew up the resolution and had it reviewed by our Manzanita city attorney. All was in order and ready for approval. But wait! Two outside investors called in asking council to reconsider. They were both building new houses on Merton and had been told they could get STR permits immediately. Council said well let’s redo this resolution right now and continue with uncapped STRs on all of Laneda and parts of 3rd, 4th, Merton, Hailey etc.
Our city manager’s well- researched resolution was quickly reworded per Mayor Mike Scott’s instructions. Then four elected public officials voted “yes” and one voted “no” again. One councilor listens to the people who elect, three councilors and the mayor listen to investors.

This is not made up. If you missed this disaster of a meeting, you can listen to the recording now available at: tinyurl.com/2p8stdhd

Why do we need a library???

Dear Tillamook County Residents,

I strongly urge you to support the Tillimook County Library System by voting for Measure 29- 64, the operating levy tax that funds our county library system. If this Measure doesn’t pass in May 2022, we will loose our libraries and all the resources they offer. As it is, Tillamook County can not afford to do this. We are a rural, poor county and this is one our most important resources that is available to all. It doesn’t matter if you are rich, poor, young, old, handicapped, tech savvy or not etc, the library offers free service to all. The mobile book vans reach the entire county, especially helpful for those with out resources to drive and get around. I can’t tell you how many times I have driven by the library when it’s closed, and cars with seniors, families and kids are in the parking lot using the wifi. We don’t have to drive to Portland to get resources not available in our county, the library will get them for us or as in my case help me figure out how to do it myself. Its been great to use the library programs when the grand kids visit – what a nice way to get them off their electronic screens and they enjoy it! Please support our county by voting YES for Measure 29-64.

It features some very informed speakers.

Asking for a Yes vote:

James Hoffman – former military and former Dept. of Corrections employee.

Rob Taylor – National organizer of Second Amendment Protection Measures.

Asking for a No vote:

Laura Allen former attorney.
Clatsop County Sheriff Matt Phillips.

Yesterday, my cat SQUINTS went missing from our small farm on HWY 53. This is in the event that someone may have possibly found him or picked him up somewhere in the few miles north of MacDonald Road. If you have him or know where he is please call (503) 381-2120. $1000.00 REWARD for him.

Thank you!
