TILLAMOOK — The Sea-

the Gulls place second in the
team standings of the Tillamook
Invitational.
Tillamook won the girls’
team title with 298 points, fol-
lowed by Seaside (196), New-
port (179) and Astoria (157),
as most of the District 1/4A
schools competed in the eight-
team event.
Newport won the boys’
championship, followed by
Rainier, Astoria and Seaside.
It’s early, but the Lady Gulls
already have some high hopes
for state.
Seaside freshman Kendy Lin
won the girls’ 200-yard freestyle
in 2 minutes, 15.66 seconds, and
also took ¿rst in the 100-yard
backstroke (1:09.05), just ahead
and Olivia Paul placed second
behind Tillamook in 2:09.81.
On the boys’ side, Astoria
freshman Joshua Shipley was a
double winner, taking the 100-
yard freestyle in 53.39, the best
time out of 21 swimmers; he
also took ¿rst in the backstroke
(1:04.10).
Seaside’s Bradley Rzewnic-
ki was third in the 200 freestyle
(2:11.14).

Ranger Classic
ESTACADA — Astoria
took part in the Ranger Wres-
tling Classic Saturday, placing
10th in the team standings out of
14 schools. Warrenton ¿nished
12th.
Warrior senior Colton Walker
opened with a bye, then scored
three straight victories to take the
individual title at 106 pounds.
Walker scored pins over Col-
by Giltner of Sandy (1:03) and
Landon Robinson of Churchill
(3:54), and ¿nally a pin (3:07)
over Churchill’s Gavin Sherrill
in the championship bout.
Bronson Holthusen and Ty-
ler Ranta had the highest ¿nish-
es for the Fishermen.
Holthusen tied for third at
220, while Ranta lost an early
4-3 decision to Sandy’s Brody
Diaz De Leon, who is currently
ranked fourth at the 5A level.
Ranta dominated the rest of his
matches and placed third at 132.
Elsewhere, Jake Lunsford
won a match on his way to tak-
ing fourth at 113, while fresh-
man teammate Kaden Gilbert
wrestled up a weight class and
won three of ¿ve matches to
place fourth at 195. Andrew
Poplin took ¿fth at 285.

Loggers sixth at Ocosta
WESTPORT, Wash. — The
Knappa Loggers ¿nished in
the middle of the pack over the
weekend, in a tournament at
Ocosta (Wash.) High School.
Knappa ¿nished with 117
points to place sixth in the team
standings, as the only Oregon
school in a tournament against
10 Washington teams.
Willapa Harbor won the
team championship with 197
points, followed by Ocosta
(170).
Andrew Goozee had the
only individual title for the Log-
gers, winning the 182-pound
division.
Reuben Cruz placed sec-
ond at 160, while Spencer Ful-
ton (138), Dawson Whiteside
(145) and Jared Parks (220) all
placed fourth at their respective
weights.
“The team wrestled well,”
Knappa coach Dan Owings
said. “Some of my new wres-
tlers (Fulton, Parks) did surpris-
ingly well despite the lack of
experience.
“Some of the wrestlers are
one weight above where they
are going to be because of the
weight-descent program,” he
said. “Reuben Cruz and Andrew
Goozee looked good, as the re-
sults show.”
Final team results: Willapa
Harbor 197, Ocosta 170, Raini-
er 138, Adna 127.5, Tenino 119,
Knappa 117, Darrington 85,
North Beach 80, Rochester 50,
Chief Leschi 50, Toledo/Win-
lock 49.
Council: Mayor wants ‘a 21st century library’
¿ll the hole, and festival-like
streetscape.
The library component
would cost between $10.2 mil-
lion and $13.3 million, while
the housing would cost be-
tween $8.2 million and $10.6
million.
A redevelopment project of
that scale would likely require a
capital campaign of more than
$15 million and a partnership
with a private developer.
Continued from Page 1A
Hotel. Councilors directed city
planning staff earlier this year to
investigate a mixed-use project
as the catalyst for revitalizing
Duane Street downtown.
But Kevin Cronin, the city’s
community development direc-
tor, who worked with private
consultants on options for rede-
velopment, chose not to make
a recommendation to the City
Council Monday night. A proj-
ect advisory committee in No-
vember also declined to make
a recommendation, concluding
that there is a lack of communi-
ty consensus.
Instead, Cronin and the
consultants presented the City
Council with cost estimates and
Cronin sought to get councilors
to endorse further work and
public outreach on aspects of a
project.
While only estimates, the
presentation was the ¿rst time
a price tag was released public-
ly. The $29.7 million to $38.7
million estimate would involve
an 18,200-square-foot library,
three Àoors of housing, un-
derground parking, a plaza to
‘Money is a big issue’
City councilors will have to
decide whether to pursue such
a project or revisit the renova-
tion of the existing library by
adding a second level, expand-
ing into the parking lot, or once
again looking at the Waldorf.
The expansion into the Waldorf
fell apart earlier this year after
preservationists urged the city to
save the old hotel — also known
as the Merwyn — as a historic
example of the Late Commer-
cial style of the 1920s. Some
preservationists also want to
preserve the existing library as a
reminder of the Brutalist archi-
tecture from the 1960s.
“I think the money is a big
issue. This is just a boatload of
money to do this at Heritage
Square,” said Price, who would
be willing to demolish the Wal-
dorf, which has sat vacant for
more than 25 years. “It’s just
mind-blowing.”
Warr said the cost estimates
for Heritage Square are so ex-
pensive, a project would take
many years to get built. He
compared the cost to the $40
million to $50 million the city
is spending on sewer improve-
ments to reduce wastewater
Àows into the Columbia River.
“I can’t imagine that we’d
even consider in our wildest
imaginations spending upwards
of $38 million to make another
vacant building in Astoria,”
Warr said, referring to the pos-
sibility that the existing library
might be left vacant if a new
one goes to Heritage Square
and is not part of a broader re-
development. “It doesn’t make
a bit of sense to me.”
‘No escape clause’
Herzig chided Cronin and
the consultants hired by the city
for not making a recommenda-
tion on a preferred option, tell-
ing them “there was no escape
clause” in the city’s request.
But councilors themselves
appeared cautious about mak-
ing any commitments to a proj-
ect that could have both ¿nan-
cial and political consequences.
The City Council split 3-2 on
taking the interim step of ¿lling
the hole with some type of plaza
— a roughly $450,000 expense
— with Herzig and Nemlowill
voting “no” out of concern that
the work might have to be re-
done if a redevelopment project
is approved. The council voted
4-1 for housing as a potential
option at Heritage Square, with
Price voting “no,” citing the lack
of community consensus.
LaMear, a retired librarian
who had made a new library
a focal point of her election
campaign last year, said a li-
brary at Heritage Square next to
the Garden of Surging Waves
would create a much-needed
central gathering place for the
community. She said the hous-
ing component could attract
private investment and that the
project could encourage the re-
vitalization of Duane Street.
“I want a 21st century li-

auto repair shop, dry cleaners, and most recently a Safe-
way before the city acquired the property.
brary,” the mayor said. “And if
the decision is made to include
it in the revitalization of Heri-
tage Square, that’s wonderful.
If it is not, then I will support
the will of the people and the
council, obviously.
“But I think there’s many,
many good reasons for putting
the library in Heritage Square.”
Herzig was also ready to
consider Heritage Square. “The
library, workforce housing ad-
dresses so many community
needs simultaneously, I think
it’s worth taking the risk of
saying that let’s at least move
forward in exploring the reali-
ty-based options that we’ve just
touched on tonight,” he said.
Nemlowill said the city has
failed to redevelop Heritage
Square since taking over the for-
mer Safeway in 2003 and should
¿nd a private developer. But she
said both Heritage Square and
the existing library are viable
options for a new library and she
was not prepared to cast a vote
for Heritage Square.
“I’m glad that we’re looking
at this issue really critically,”
she said. “And it’s not one is-
sue, but we’re trying to solve
two very complicated prob-
lems.”
