In the Matter of the Estate of
DON BERT ABEL, Decedent.
Case No. 22PB03520
CAPTION: AMENDS CITY CHARTER COMBINING OFFICES OF
CITY ADMINISTRATOR/RECORDER TO ADMINISTRATOR.
QUESTION: Shall the City amend its Charter to no longer have a City
Recorder/Administrator position and only have a City Administrator?
SUMMARY: The Elgin City Charter is the governing document for the
City of Elgin. This measure would revise Chapter III, section 10.1 and
Chapter V, section 22 of the current Amended City Charter, adopted in
May 19th, 1987. The City Council approved the revised provision fol-
lowing a public meeting on September 14th, 2021 and directed that it
be submitted to the City voters for consideration at the November 2022
election. The proposed revision would amend the current title of Chap-
ter III, section 10.1 to read “CITY ADMINISTRATOR” and it would re-
move the title “Recorder.” It would further amend the title of Chapter V,
Section 22 to read “Administrator” and would remove the title
“Recorder.”
NOTICE IS FURTHER GIVEN that any elector of the City who believes
the proposed measure contains more than one subject or who believes
the ballot title is insufficient, not concise, or unfair may file a petition for
judicial review with the Circuit Court for Union County no later than
5:00 PM on August 8, 2022, which is at least seven business days after
this notice.
Any elector who files a petition to review the ballot title must notify the
City Recorder in writing that the petition has been filed no later than
5:00 PM on the next business day following the day the petition is filed.
A non-mandatory, but highly encouraged, pre-proposal conference will
be held, in person, on August 3, 2022 at 11 AM at La Grande Middle
School, 1108 4th St., La Grande, OR 97850.
All questions are to be submitted in writing to Joseph Waite via email
at joseph.waite@lagrandesd.org.
La Grande School District is an equal opportunity employer and en-
courages all firms to submit bids.

YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are never one to say
“never,” and you will go ahead with all manner
of plans, regardless of the odds against you, in
order to reshape the world, or your small
corner of it, to suit your needs and desires.
You rarely give others much thought when
you are plotting your course; your concern is
for yourself above all and those under your
immediate care. If others object to what you
are doing, so be it.
SATURDAY, JULY 30
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your native curi-
osity is likely to pull you into a complicated
situation, and you must take care that you
don’t put anyone else in danger.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’re eager
to find something a little more challenging to
work on today, and what comes your way may
be more than you had bargained for.

plained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the Deed of Trust at any

resentations or warranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential prop-
erty sold at a trustee’s sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical
