Notice of Public Hearing
Union School District No. 5
Exemption from Public Contracting Competitive Bidding
Requirement
The Union School District No. 5 Board of Directors will conduct a
Public Hearing at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, January 29, 2020 at the
Bobcat Athletic Complex, 800 Dearborn St., Union, OR 97883.
The purpose of the public hearing is to take oral and written com-
ments on the District’s Findings of Fact in support of an Exemption
from competitive bidding under ORS 279C.335 for the project known
as “2019 Bond Project”.
The District is requesting the exemption to allow the use of an al-
ternative procurement method known as “Construction Manager/
General Contractor (CM/GC)”. The CM/GC contracting method uti-
lizes an integrated team approach applying modern management
techniques to the planning, design, preconstruction and construc-
tion phases of a project, in order to control time and cost and to
assure quality for the project owner. Selection of the successful CM/
GC contractor is by Qualitative-Based Selection, that is, evaluation/
scoring of written proposals, interviews and the specified profit mar-
gins of all Proposers.
Draft findings may be obtained from Wenaha Group, Inc. at 125 SE
Court Avenue, Pendleton, Oregon 97801, Attn: Cassie Hibbert, Proj-
ect Manager, 541-561-3497, chibbert@wenahagroup.com.

es of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice

amount due (other than such portion of the principal as would not
then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default
complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering
the performance required under the obligations or trust deed, and
in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance nec-
essary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actual-
ly incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with
trustee’s fees and attorney’s fees not exceeding the amounts provid-
ed by said ORS 86.778. Notice is further given that reinstatement or
payoff quotes requested pursuant to ORS 86.786 and ORS 86.789

that statute, addressed to the trustee’s “Reinstatements/Payoffs –
ORS 86.786” either by personal delivery or by first class, certified
mail, return receipt requested, to the trustee’s address shown below.
Due to potential conflicts with federal law, persons having no record
legal or equitable interest in the subject property will only receive
information concerning the lender’s estimated or actual bid. Lender
bid information is also available at the trustee’s website, www.shap-
iroattorneys.com/wa. In construing this notice, the masculine gender
includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural,
the word “grantor” includes any successor in interest to the grantor
as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance
of which is secured by said trust deed, and the words “trustee” and
“beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any.
Also, please be advised that pursuant to the terms stated on the
Deed of Trust and Note, the beneficiary is allowed to conduct proper-
ty inspections while property is in default. This shall serve as notice
that the beneficiary shall be conducting property inspections on the
said referenced property. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of
representations or warranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to
state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s
sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the
chemical components of which are known to be toxic. Prospective
purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential
danger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s
sale. The Fair Debt Collection Practice Act requires that we state
the following: This is an attempt to collect a debt, and any informa-
tion obtained will be used for that purpose. If a discharge has been
obtained by any party through bankruptcy proceedings: This shall
not be construed to be an attempt to collect the outstanding indebt-
edness or hold you personally liable for the debt. Dated: /s/ Kelly
