Bornstein: Proposed lease pays the port $6,200 a month
Continued from Page 1A
The company, whose main
plant is located at the foot of
piers 1 and 2, recently gained
adjacent space in the Pier 2
warehouse when it acquired
Astoria Pacifi c Seafoods
from Bornstein’s father, Jay,
a former owner of Bornstein
Seafoods. It mainly uses the
space in the Pier 2 building for
processing hake between May
and Thanksgiving. The Pier 2
warehouse also includes Unit-
ed Coast Seafood on the south
end, Bornstein’s two spaces in
the middle and Da Yang Sea-
foods to the north.
“It is contiguous to our op-
eration, and if you go in there,
there’s a 30- to 40-foot door,”
Bornstein said. “We’d be able
to open that up and have ac-
cess to our other space.”
Bornstein’s proposed lease
pays the Port $6,200 a month
for fi ve years, with four fi ve-

Labor Council picnic
planned for workers
The Daily Astorian
WARRENTON — The
North Coast Labor Council,
a c hapter of Oregon AFL-
CIO, is holding a Labor Day
picnic from noon to 5 p.m.
Monday at Cullaby Lake
Park .
The picnic — at the
park’s north shelter, which is
at the end of Hawkins Road
off Cullaby Lake Lane —
marks the end of summer
and a celebration of the la-
bor tradition in Clatsop and
Tillamook counties. All are
welcome.
The council is supplying
grilled hot dogs, hamburgers
and buns, condiments, soda
and bottled water. Those at-
tending should bring a pot
luck side dish, anything else
they want to grill, and their
own adult beverages.
The site features tables
under cover, cooking plat-
forms, a roped off swim-
ming beach and boat launch,
playground, a sand badmin-
ton/volleyball court, and
horseshoe pits. There is no
cost for this event except
a $3 parking charge per
vehicle.
Crosswalk cops take a stroll
The Daily Astorian
T he Astoria Police De-
partment on Wednesday
will have extra officers on
duty and participating in a
pedestrian safety enforce-
ment program. The effort is
in conjunction with Oregon
Impact, a nonprofit provid-
ing educational experiences
to end impaired and distract-
ed driving.
The effort focuses on drivers
who fail to yield to an offi cer
acting as a pedestrian crossing
at a marked or unmarked cross-
walk. Offi cers will also watch
for vehicles that pass when oth-
ers have stopped for a pedestri-
an in the crosswalk. The fi ne in
either situation is $260.
This will be the second tar-
geted enforcement activity
of the summer. The goal is to
increase safety of pedestrians
and drivers. The effort is paid
for with grant money awarded
to the police by Oregon Im-
pact.

ment at 503-325-4411 for more

with Da Yang Seafood, came
forward Tuesday with a pro-
posal for cold storage. The
company’s proposal would
have paid the Port $6,800 a
month, but with no defi ned
terms. It also included a $5 to
$6 million investment in out-
fi tting the warehouse for cold
storage.
Port commissioners were
worried about the traffi c and
parking congestion either
proposal could create on an
already crowded Pier 2, and
decided Bornstein’s proposal
was more compatible. Born-
stein said his proposal would
decrease the truck traffi c to
his fi sh-processing plants,
as he would be able to bring
more boxes in at once.
“The only way they can
build a cold storage there is
by tearing the building down
to put pilings in and add load
capacity there,” said Commis-
sioner James Campbell, who
also runs a towing and marine
construction business .
Lee’s contractor, Joel
Bergeman, said Da Yang has
already spent $75,000 on pil-
ings to hold up improvements
in its existing Pier 2 location,

build a 40,000-square -foot
cold storage and a freight de-
pot on the new dock, which it
estimated would add 20 to 30
jobs locally.
A signed lease from
Da Yang was on fi le for at
least eight months but nev-
er signed off on by the Port
Commission, which spoke
of saving the dock for an as
yet unspecifi ed cargo. The
unsigned lease was a prima-

agreeing Pier 2 isn’t the best

Fulton announced during
