Case A. Request by Deb Tinnin for 5 years of emails between myself and our current Mayor and Council, past Councils and the City Attorney. She emphasized that she would like this request filled “as soon as possible”.
City Response: The City Manager sends the Council a notice that “Your immediate attention is needed!” and you have a little more than 48 hours to comply with Ms. Tinnin’s request.
City Attorney Review: 478 pages submitted to Ms. Tinnin with NO City Attorney charges for review.
Results: In the City’s haste to comply with this request, non public information of a citizen is released and disclosed on the internet for all to see. No acknowledgment of this error or public apology is given.
Case B. Request by myself for the City Manager’s current monthly salary and benefit costs.
City Response: I’m initially told that the City does not have that information and am reminded that the City has 15 business days to respond to a public records request. After I suggest to staff where this information can be found, the City acknowledges that it does indeed have the information.
City Attorney Review: My one page document containing this public information will require City Attorney review and I will be charged $329.37 before I can receive it.
I made this exact same Public Records request to Cannon Beach and received all of the information requested within 48 hours. No excuses that they did not have the information, no reminder that there is no urgency on their part to fill a public records request, no City attorney review, no City Attorney charges, in fact no fees of any kind.
This is an example of how Club Manzanita operates. Members in good standing get VIP treatment, non members in essence get told to take a number, get your checkbook out and we’ll get back to you.
The right to equal treatment and to not be singled out due to asking questions or making public observations as to how its local government conducts itself is a foundational right of every citizen. Councilor Kozlowski claims that asking such questions amounts to “harassment and intimidation”. Unnecessary obstacles to the release of public records becomes acceptable and the City Manager advises the Council that individuals who exercise their rights should be “discouraged and even ignored if necessary”.
The advantages of Club membership are obvious. Members first get Committee appointments and when the occasion arises, selection to fill vacant Council seats. Looks like the Council will soon be appointing another citizen to fill a vacant Council seat. If this trend continues, Manzanita may soon have a Council the majority of which were not elected to office and all seem to be Members in good standing. Something to think about.

Why are there so many secret meetings going on at Wheeler City Hall reflected on the city website?
I just received my new City of Wheeler water bill for July and August for $290 for 3 retired adults. We don’t water the lawn and because we are mostly stay-at-home therefore, we don’t need to shower but a couple of times a week.
A few months ago, the citizens of Wheeler received a 3-page diatribe on how the water was going to increase, without even stating the amount. Our previous water bill was $156. And now the city has added a Water Debt Service Charge of $25 without notification of any kind.
After I have made 3 proposals to the city government officials, Cliff Kemp, Mayor; Karen Matthews, Council President; Walt Porter, Councilor; Deanne Ragnell, Councilor; Gordon Taylor, Councilor. I question why, If we are sharing the well under a signed 2005 Inter-Governmental Agreement, then why is Manzanita using 110 million gallons a year not sharing the more than $900,000 dollars it is collecting above and beyond the 200 million gallons Wheeler is using. All I have heard from the council is ‘we must be nice to those people’. I didn’t vote for ‘those people’, I voted for the City of Wheeler Council.
That amounts to $450,000 that Wheeler should be receiving for its part of the shared water which amounts to more than $1400 A DAY that Wheeler should be receiving for its share of the water.
To highlight the sharing of Inter-Governmental Agreement, when Manzanita had fizz or air in their water 3 years ago, an Aeration Tank was installed at the well site to get rid of the fizz, although Wheeler had no fizz in its water, it was required under the IGA to pay for half of the tank.
I have never received a straight answer to my concerns at 3 different meetings with city officials; once with mayor Doug Honeycutt, on May 16th, who resigned a couple of months ago; then at the City Council Meeting on July 18th, and again with the council meeting this past August 15th.
Why is Wheeler neglecting its obligations to receive its share of the water while adding more charges on the backs of its citizens? Are they planning to give away Wheeler’s well because Nehalem is out of water? Wasn’t Nehalem not asked if they wanted to join in to finance the original well? Didn’t Manzanita plan to originally use Anderson Creek for their primary water source and that is why Manzanita built the water treatment plant at the corner of Laneda and Hwy. 101? Why so many secret agendas and meetings on the website of Wheeler City Hall?
Next City of Wheeler public meeting is September 15, 2023 at 1:30 p.m. Nothing planned for Oct or Nov. on the calendar. Are we no longer going to be a city after Nehalem ties onto our Wheeler Well water and builds a plant on their side of the river? Wheeler will have no source of income.

We are very lucky to have them. I do have an issue with the new fire truck though.
Three World Trade Center buildings were blown-up and collapsed into their own footprint on September 11th, 2001. But only two WTC buildings, numbers One and Two, the tallest two, are depicted on the sides of Nehalem’s new fire truck.
WTC Building 7 was 47-stories tall, about half the size of the 110-story WTC buildings 1 and 2. It would fit quite nicely on the door I think, next to the other two buildings that were blown by criminal elements in the Israeli, Saudi Arabian, and American governments.
This ‘false flag’ (Osama did it!) was done to justify the destruction (make money killing them and stealing their oil) of Iraq, Somalia, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan, Syria, and Iran. Only Syria and Iran have avoided being attacked by the United States (so far) after the false flag attack in NYC that day, which saw the Bush Crime Family blaming Osama Bin Laden for their 9/11 operation.
Brilliant nomenclature: 911. No other three numbers strike such a chord in Americans hearts.
Anyway, the side of the new fire truck is missing a building, yes.
In the second link below, one can hear NYC First Responders discussing the demolition of building 7, and you can hear the explosions yourself.
And you can hear the owner, Larry Silverstein, claim that they decided to blow up Building 7 that day (pull it) in order to save firefighters’ lives. (They killed how many firefighters in buildings One and Two? As if he cares about a few more. Larry Silverstein had just bought the WTC complex btw, and he is a Zionist Jew and was very much interested in destroying Muslim countries and stealing their oil.)
Obviously, it takes more than a few hours (about two weeks actually) to rig a building of that size for demolition. Larry here suggests they rigged it in one afternoon! The truth is Mossad agents rigged the buildings with explosives, they were given that job. Ain’t telling you how I know that.
But I will tell you that nobody involved in 9/11 (about 200 individuals or so) cares that I am writing this. They blew up a 47-story building on live tv at 530 PM on a Monday in lower Manhattan and nobody even remembers it happened! (Mission accomplished)
I went in WTC Building One as a kid, but only to the unimpressive 14th floor.
I did witness Building 7 blow up on live tv, which is why I probably keep harping on it. I saw it blow up LIVE. You didn’t, because you turned off the television before 5:30 PM that Monday, like so many other Americans. But I kept watching. It’s kind of f*cked witnessing such a crime and then watching a nation totally unaware that it even occurred. I bet it makes Dubya laugh tho.
(My theory is the THIRD PLANE was supposed to hit the THIRD BUILDING, but it was forced down by passengers over Pennsylvania. So they had to blow up Bldg 7 without the plane-hit cover. Just my theory, ain’t heard nobody else posit such.
I’m guessing our friends in ‘intelligence’ have totally scrubbed the video of Dan Rather and Bldg 7 that day, but I watched Dan on CBS look really confused, wondering why his producer had cut to a shot of WTC building 7 which only had a small fire on a 30th floor. Then me and Dan Rather watched the f*ucking building blow up on live tv. (You can see video of the controlled demolition in link #2).
If you recall, Dan Rather came out against attacking Iraq (a country that had NOTHING to do with 9/11 – younger generations don’t know that), and he was promptly fired by Westinghouse-owned (weapons systems) CBS News.
It’s important to remember history, to remember building 7, to put a picture of it on Nehalem’s fire trucks. Building 7 isn’t on any fire trucks that I’ve ever seen. Why is that? It wasn’t big enough?
Can we put a rendition of WTC Building 7 on Nehalem’s new fire truck? That would be a grand gesture to the NYC First Responders who witnessed that part of the attack on the American people.

It’s important to remember WTC 7 because when we forget things like WTC Building 7, we get Covid1984, and more and more lies that can lead to things like WW3 with Russia.
It’s too late to stop Covid1984 and war with Russia tho.
But maybe we can stop them from closing our schools again and masking our children during Gates’ upcoming ‘pandemic number 2’.
School closures and masks are great for fascists, but bad for children:

Looking to lease a horse for riding at your facility somewhere from tillamook to seaside.
Trail or pasture riding/ comfortable with English or western.
I have no idea how many people are in our BBQ community on the average. Anybody?
I wonder how many are in a book club?
I wonder how many regularly read the NY Times, the Post, Wall St. Journal, New Yorker, Christian Science Monitor, Time Magazine or any of the others pillars of mainstream journalism, and if so would you ever find such a comprehensive and well written piece as the one linked below?
How about any book clubbers out there read the article as an assignment and respond to me? I will give it a week and then post, with permissions and anonymous if requested, those collected responses here.
Just curious as we approach such a pivotal date in our worlds history.
