SALEM — Independent
Party of Oregon candidates
will join Democrats and
Republicans on May 2016
primary ballots, Secretary
of State Jeanne Atkins an-
nounced Monday.
The Independent Par-
ty Tuali¿ ed for major party
status, after the Secretary of
State’s Of¿ ce veri¿ ed for a
second time this year that the
party had enough members to
meet the state’s requirements.
The main upshot is the Inde-
pendent Party can now partic-
ipate in state-funded primary
elections. Minor parties can
participate in general elec-
tions, but they have to make
their own arrangements to
nominate candidates after the
May primary.
Although then-Secretary
of State Kate Brown ruled that
the group quali¿ ed in Febru-
ary, Brown said the party had
to re-verify it had enough
registered party members to
qualify on Aug. 16.
Sal Peralta, secretary for
the Independent Party, said he
was thrilled to hear the news
about the group’s new status
on Monday.
“It took a lot of work to
get us to this point, and we’re
really looking forward to hav-
ing an opportunity to partici-
pate in the state’s May prima-
ry election,” Peralta said .
Now, Peralta said, the
party will quickly shift from
registering voters to a more
focused effort to recruit 2016
candidates. People who want
to run as Independent Party
candidates in the May prima-
ry must register with the par-
County renews contract
with Astoria Dispatch
The Daily Astorian
The Clatsop County Board
of Commissioners agreed
Wednesday to renew its con-
tract with Astoria 911 Dis-
patch.
The county contracts with
Astoria for dispatch services
used by the sheriff’s of¿ ce.
The $296,300 contract is
budgeted for this ¿ scal year.
Astoria’s cost of providing
the service has increased due
to the need to replace a server
and add a supervisor position.
In addition, personnel
costs continue to grow for
the county and Astoria, most-
ly from retirement plans and
health care.
According to the sheriff’s
of¿ ce, there are limited op-
tions in addressing the issue
that the county is unable to
provide dispatch service it-
self and the other provider —
Seaside — does not currently
have the capacity.
Astoria 911 Dispatch re-
ceives calls for Astoria Police,
Warrenton Police, Clatsop
County Sheriff’s Of¿ ce and
area ¿ re departments.
In other business:
• The Board of Commis-
sioners approved a $1.2 mil-
lion biennial contract with the
Oregon Department of Hu-
man Services to fund devel-
opmental disabilities services
in the community. The fund-
ing is based on clients served,
and will be passed through the
county to Clatsop Behavioral
Healthcare, the local contract-
ed provider of disabilities ser-
vices.
