and a stronger sense of purpose are with
you this month. Money matters tend to be
a focus. You may need to get serious about
your finances towards the end of the month.
It is important to get all of your paperwork in
order. Around the 12th, a relationship matter
can come to light. Your powers of attraction
are especially strong until the 14th, and your
persuasive abilities are powerful from the
9th-25th.
Libra (September 23- October 22) Work
done in solitude is your best bet this month.

periods of the year for you. Fortunately, you
are coming across in an especially charming
light. New directions in your career are in
store for you, although they have been in the

Kay Files Civil Action Lawsuit
continued from page 6
 
Michael  Kay  was  employed 
by  the City  of Vernonia for nine years 
as  a  police  officer,  Sergeant,  acting 
Chief and Captain.  He was terminated 
by  the  City  in  2011  following  several 
investigations  into  his  conduct.    He 
was  later  decertified  by  DPSST  for 
ethics  violations.    In  2013  he  lost  an 
employment  arbitration  hearing  that 
reviewed his termination.  
 
The  current  lawsuit  claims 
that,  as  result  of  various  due  process 
violations and breeches of law, Michael 
Kay  was  unfairly  terminated  and 
decertified  by  DPSST  and  that  he  lost 
wages,  his  retirement  and  his  career.  
The lawsuit further states that Kay was 
intentionally deprived of his rights  by 
the defendants who engaged in illegal, 
malicious  and  wrongful  conduct 
together and individually.  The lawsuit 
claims  that  Kay  has  suffered  physical, 
emotional and  financial harm  and   has 
been placed in an untenable position of 
believing his life may be in danger and 
that  he  has  suffered  from  anxiety  and 
extreme emotional distress.
 
The  lawsuit  asks  that  Kay  be 
awarded economic damages of no less 
$250,000 and noneconomic damages of 
no less than $1.5 million.  
 
According  to  Vernonia  City 
Administrator  Haack,  “The  City  has 
no comment on the current legal matter 
and will rely on the advice of the City 
Attorney and attorneys provided through 
City County Insurance Services.”

they’re moving forward.
of September, there comes a need to get
serious about work and your health.
Pisces (February 19- March 20)
Relationships are revived in September.
While a significant other can seem to have
the upper hand this month, you are not
inclined to keep score. Instead, you are
enjoying the improvements. The Full Moon
in your sign on the 12th heightens emotions
and increases your need for self-expression.
You might make an emotional declaration
around this time. The 23rd-24th can bring
good news particularly regarding money
and work. You’ll need to get serious about
a financial or emotional commitment at the
month’s end.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) September is a
straightforward month for Gemini. Financial
matters clear up, and work matters move
forward. In a professional matter near the
12th, recognition may be forthcoming. Family
and domestic life assume more importance
than usual. Mid-month, spend more
moderately when security is more important
to you. You come out of your shell on the
23rd, although the last week of September
brings serious energy to a romance or
creative project. Answers will come now.
Aries (March 21-April 19) Work projects
move forward and gain speed. This is a time
of eliminating waste so that you are more
productive. Being busy feels good, and this is
a strong month for getting a lot accomplished.
You are looking forward. Personal appeal is
high the 23rd- 24th. Answers to relationship
questions can come on the 27th-30th, when
you are getting serious about your future.
Some Arians could begin new partnerships
at this time.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) The New moon
at the end of August sets the tone for the
first 4 weeks of September. It is a highly
creative, romantic, and fun theme at this
time. Your appeal is high and you are making
time for recreation. You could be feeling
especially amorous. Creative Bulls will find
plenty of inspiration. September brings
forward-looking energy to your relationships.
Home life is improving. In the last few days
Cancer (June 21- July 22) September
is an especially busy month for you, dear
Cancer. While you feel pulled in a number
of directions, you manage to stay on top
of things. There are fewer problems with
transportation and communication than there
were in August. The 23rd-24th is strong for
money earned from your profession, as well
as for recognition for your talents. The last
three days of the month bring the need to get
serious about your family and domestic life.
Leo (July 23- August 22) September begins
a sense of calm for Leo. If you have been
waiting on a loan, financial aid, mortgage,
or other settlement, this is the month when
you’re likely to get the news. Money is a
big focus and you are in a good position to
improve your lot in life. Love becomes more
about communication and sharing the little
things with a special someone after the 14th.
After the 18th, the pace of your life picks up,
and you have the energy to move mountains.
Is there a possible trip on the horizon?
