Wings
Stop and behold
The flying swallow,
Rising and releasing,
Joyfully soaring upwards
To stream back down
To the earth, gravity’s
Grateful companion.
Like the breath
Entering and leaving,
A joy to stop,
And simply witness
Rising and releasing,
The in and out
Of what we know
As a gift or blessing.
My name is Bill Miller and I’m still fairly new to the area. I am currently working as a vet technician at Nehalem Animal Healing Center. I now own my first cat “Angel”, and have loved animals all my life. Working at the vet is a part-time opportunity, and I have been doing odd jobs on the side to help make a living.
I am friendly, compassionate, a very hard worker, and I pay close attention to detail. I’ve mostly been doing landscaping and house cleaning since moving to the coast. I currently reside in Nehalem, near the Animal Rescue. I always come to work with a positive attitude. I have 11 years of experience in the restaurant industry so I am no stranger to hard labor and cleanliness. I have gone through extensive training, including serve safe certification. If I am hired as a cleaner I make sure to use proper products and procedures. No matter what, I make sure the job is done right the first time!
I am primarily looking for yard work jobs in the area, as I love to work outdoors, however I am willing to clean kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms, you name it. We are never to good to do a job, even if it’s dirty. I work quickly, efficiently and ask for very reasonable compensation. If there are pets involved I am more than happy to help take care of them as well! I am a natural with all types of animals, and I am trained to do nail trims as an additional service if needed. If anyone is in need of a reliable, honest, hardworking guy to help out at home, please feel free to reach out to me on here. Also my personal cell phone is fine (413) 695-2215! You may also contact me via email at, xmiller1324@gmail.com. Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to hearing from you!
Best Wishes, Sincerely, Bill Miller

This is a link that tells the story:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unOXcKigSuY&t=399s
If you have children under the age of 15 – actually the law says from birth to 15, their reproductive organs are under the jurisdiction of the state of Oregon. This bill HB 2002 – does that, it gives the state jurisdiction over your child’s reproductive hormones and organs. I can think of no law more egregious than this. And yet because of the deception of the media, the hysteria of Republicans, and Democrats too, crying abortion, abortion, and abortion- the real purpose of this bill was blurred. (this bill was and is not about abortion, abortion is allowed in our constitution, from age 15) it is about the state, not the parent, being in control of your child’s sexual orientation and reproductive body parts. Abortion is a part of that but it is already legal for age 15 and up.
So the Senators that put their job on the line for you and your children were told they could not run in the next election.
They did take their case to the courts and the Supreme Court, hand picked by the last two Democratic governors, ruled that measure 113 passed by 68% of people, will stand and therefore those that tried to stop this wrongful legislation by trying to prevent a quorum cannot run again. So who is protecting you now dear voter?
Measure 113 —changed the constitution – did you know that? It punishes people who try to prevent a quorum. And preventing a quorum is legal. Democrats have used this tactic also.
Measure 113 as written made you think that there were some lazy legislators who just didn’t bother to show up for work too many times and therefore should not be allowed to run again. Is that why you voted for it? Watch out for bills in the future, most of them are written so you don’t know what they mean.
Oregon Measure 113 -The exclusion from Re-election for Legislative Absenteeism initiative. A “yes” vote supported disqualifying legislators from re-election following the end of their term if they are absent from 10 legislative floor sessions without permission or excuse. This was approved by voters Nov. 8 2022. The Democrats, if they did this would be excused and given permission (as the majority)because there is no definition of what a valid excuse would be, or what would be permitted.

EVCNB’s Top Chef contest is a rousing success! Plus new Hams, new CERTS, new leadership and more!
Councilor Hart took the lead with his story of a part time neighbor who developed a leak in the water line going to her house that she was unaware of. Councilor Hart claimed that monthly readings allowed for the discovery of the leak and saved her from a potential $1,200 water bill had the leak gone undetected for three months. In cases like this, once the property owner is advised of the leak and repairs it, they are given a leak credit by the City so that they are not unfairly charged for a situation that they had no knowledge of. In the future during your discussions, please give all the facts not just those that create the story you want citizens to hear to support your positions on a particular issue.
The City’s messaging on this issue continues to be confusing, contradictory and condescending. Listening to the City Manager’s explanation of how your meter records monthly usage confirms that the City only has a vague idea of how much water you use each month. The City can neither tell you how many actual gallons you use each month nor how many gallons in excess of your 2,000 gallon base allotment you used.
Homeowners are told that we need to conserve water and learn to get by with half of the 4,000 gallons per month that we once had in our base billing. Meanwhile the City confirms to developers of subdivisions, commercial businesses and the new hotel on Dorcus Lane that we have plenty of water for their developments.
The City acknowledges that monthly billings are more costly but are unable to tell us how much additional expense is involved. They are however confident that through their assistance with this change, monthly billings will allow each of us to better manage our personal expenses and household finances.
How many of you in any given quarter are gone from your residence on a vacation or take trips to see family or friends? During the quarter in question for that time you are gone, your meter is not turning thus increasing your odds that your total quarterly bill may show that you only used the base amount of 6,000 gallons for the quarter. You just saved yourself from paying one or more $9.50 monthly surcharges that resulted from a monthly read of your meter that found that you exceeded 2,000 gallons. When you compare a monthly utility billing rate structure that includes a surcharge component with the same rate structure with a quarterly meter read, a quarterly billing always favors the customer from a cost of service standpoint.
This is the classic government response of creating a solution that is in search of a problem. Why is the City so insistent to push this through?
The Council has the opportunity at their April meeting to announce that they will not pursue this Ordinance amendment and retain quarterly billings.
Should Council pass this Ordinance, I will initiate the referendum process to ensure that there will be an election scheduled at the next available election date to consider the repeal of this Ordinance and return to quarterly meter reading and billing. In short, Manzanita voters, not the Council, will decide the matter. We have not had an opportunity for a direct vote on any important City decision since the failed City Hall Bond measure in 2019. I imagine that voters would welcome the opportunity to again cast a vote on an issue that affects their pocketbook.
Let your Council hear from you before their April 3rdmeeting and ask them to explain how this change is in your best interests. citycouncil@ci.manzanita.or.us
