The Baker School District 5J
Board of Directors will conduct a
Public Hearing at 12:00PM on
Monday, September 12, 2022 at
the District Office, 2090 4th St,
Baker City, OR 97814.
The purpose of the Public Hear-
ing is to take oral and written
comments on the District’s Find-
ings of Fact in support of an Ex-
emption from competitive bidding
under ORS 279C.335 for the proj-
ect known as “2021-2023 Capital
Bond Projects”. This exemption ex-
cludes the Brooklyn Primary
School Bond and Baker Middle
School HVAC Equipment Pro-
curement of the bond projects,
which have been awarded to Gyl-
lenberg Construction and CB
Construction respectively. Instal-
lation of the Middle School Equip-
ment will fall under the selected
CM/GC’s responsibility.
The District is requesting the ex-
emption to allow the use of an al-
ternative procurement method
known as “Construction Man-
ager/General
Contractor
(CM/GC)”. The CM/GC contract-
ing method utilizes an integrated
team approach applying modern
management techniques to the
planning, design, preconstruction
and construction 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 writ-
ten proposals, interviews and the
specified profit margins of all Pro-
posers.

TRUSTEE’S NOTICE OF SALE T.S. No.: OR-21-891685-SW Reference is made to that certain deed made
by, MARK HOWELL AND MICHELLE R. HOWELL, HUSBAND AND WIFE, AS TENANTS BY THE EN-

recorded 3/23/2017 as Instrument No. 20170957 and subsequently assigned or transferred by operation of
law to PHH Mortgage Corporation covering the following described real property situated in said County,
and State. APN: 01N3915DB 7000 01N3915DB-6603 LOTS THIRTEEN (13), FOURTEEN (14), FIFTEEN

B: THE SOUTH 12 FEET OF LOTS 1, 2 AND 3 IN BLOCK 70 OF HINDMAN’S ADDITION TO ELGIN,
UNION COUNTY, OREGON, ACCORDING TO THE RECORDED PLAT OF SAID ADDITION. Commonly
known as: 195 S 11TH AVE, ELGIN, OR 97827 The undersigned hereby certifies that based upon business
records there are no known written assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary, except
as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described real property is situated.
Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by
the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted
by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy
the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of
Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of
which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which
authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure
to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $34,450.90 TOTAL REQUIRED
TO PAYOFF: $134,183.65 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from day-to-
day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee
before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact
amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing
on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following,
to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 10/1/2019, and all subsequent
installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for
late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes
and/or insurance, trustee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated
with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a con-
dition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off. Noth-
ing in this notice shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed
of Trust pursuant to the terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY

hour of 10:00 AM, Standard of Time, as established by section 187.110, Oregon Revised Statues, Inside

scribed real property which the grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution by him of
the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after
the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and ex-
penses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named
in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed
and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such
portion of said principal as would not then be due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee’s
and attorney’s fees and curing any other default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the per-
formance required under the obligation or trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set
for sale. Other than as shown of record, neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any
person having or claiming to have any lien upon or interest in the real property hereinabove described sub-
sequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed, or of any successor in interest to grantor or of any
lessee or other person in possession of or occupying the property, except: Name and Last Known Address

gation, the performance of which is secured by the trust deed, and the words “trustee” and “beneficiary” in-
clude their respective successors in interest, if any. Pursuant to Oregon Law, this sale will not be deemed
final until the Trustee’s deed has been issued by QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION OF WASH-
INGTON. If any irregularities are discovered within 10 days of the date of this sale, the trustee will rescind
the sale, return the buyer’s money and take further action as necessary. If the sale is set aside for any rea-
son, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a re-
turn of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The
purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s
Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may
have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note
holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative
credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the
terms of your credit obligations. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or war-
ranties, 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 compo-
nents 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.

YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are likely to turn negatives
into positives again and again throughout
your lifetime, snatching victory from the
hungry jaws of defeat and turning personal
loss into universal gain -- helping yourself
and others as you make your way through a
life of often conflicting happenings and cir-
cumstances. You are no stranger to disap-
pointment, and yet you believe it makes you a
strong and motivated individual -- which it
does -- and you never stop trying to salvage
whatever is possible from the ashes of some-
thing that clearly was not.
MONDAY, AUGUST 29
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’ve been
giving a certain someone the benefit of the
doubt long enough. It’s a good day to insist on
honesty and accountability.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A creative
endeavor may not satisfy you as expected
today, which suggests you didn’t commit to it
fully. Correct that mistake ASAP.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A compro-
mise is in the works, but how it will affect you
has yet to be determined exactly. You may
want to make a few trial runs today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You
are seeing things through a lens that is
warped somehow, and your emotions are
being affected. Try to adopt a more neutral
stance.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You
want to know what’s next without having
completed a current task, and this means
you’re making assumptions without all perti-
nent information.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Just as
you wish to be left alone to do something that
is quite personal to you, someone else needs
space to experiment. Give it to them.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may
fall victim to a familiar malady today, but it
needn’t have any dramatic effect on you this
time. You know how to rise above it.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Time is of
the essence today, but excessive speed can
prove hazardous. You must strike a careful
balance between pace and safety.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- What you
have to say mustn’t be couched in language
chosen to mislead; be direct, honest and as
objective as possible.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can
ensure that everyone at home is satisfied with
a group decision by taking your desires out of
the equation -- for now.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Some mis-
takes made today will become happy acci-
dents tomorrow -- but that doesn’t mean you
shouldn’t be as careful as possible right now.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- If you’re only
trying to show off, you may want to recon-
sider. Now may not be the best time to attract
attention to your abilities.
MONDAY, AUGUST 29, 2022
YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you have been endowed with
some truly admirable traits and talents, all of
which will serve you well in your life’s journey
toward personal contentment and profes-
sional success. These are not exactly guaran-
teed, however, because the stars have played
something of a trick on you, and you must
learn to walk a fine line between who you are
and who you want to be in order to make the
most of your gifts.
TUESDAY, AUGUST 30
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are
likely to be drawn to something rather myste-
rious today -- though you may want to keep
your distance when the unexpected occurs.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You want to
have a path clearly laid out before you today,
but improvisation will be required if someone
decides to join the journey.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Flexibility
is the key to success today in most things, but
when it comes to a domestic disagreement,
you’ll want to be clear and firm.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- It
won’t be easy for you to change someone’s
mind today, so why not concentrate instead
on demonstrating the validity of your idea?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- That
which is not entirely clear may take up more
time today than you had planned. You must
avoid falling down a rabbit hole.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may
not know what questions you should ask
today, but clearly you are in need of more
information than that which is currently
available.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- If it’s consis-
tency you’re after, you had better look else-
where, for what goes on around you today is
likely to be anything but consistent.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You are
likely to discover that there are others around
you who are inspired by the same things you
are, and today’s a good day to join forces.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can
avoid something to which others are almost
certain to fall prey today. Are you in a posi-
tion to help them out of a tricky situation?
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are
drawn to those things today that cannot easily
be explained. The more unusual a thing is, the
more time you’re going to give it.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Look
around you and be ready to come up with
solutions to the problems that others are fac-
ing. You grasp more of the possibilities today.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A mystery is
presented to you by someone who expects
you to solve it quickly -- but that may not be
possible given everything else going on today.
