Dogs rescued from S. Korean
Arts center: Building
faces more than $1 million meat farm arrive in Oregon
in deferred maintenance
Emily Warchol, a veterinary
technician at the Humane
Society of Central Oregon,
holds one of the puppies
rescued from South Kore-
an dog-meat trade.
medical exams. Most of their
ages and breeds are a guess at
this point.
Carmine, believed to be a
1-year-old retriever-Lab mix,
had to be coaxed from his pen
slowly, peeking around the
corner for the dog next to him.
He was carried into the
exam room, where he cowered
in the corner, but his tail started
to wag when he saw Vanessa,
another 1-year-old mix brought
from South Korea.
Next up were the puppies,
3 months old and visibly shak-
ing. Technician Emily War-
chol kept both hands on Fal-
lon, one of the puppies, to
keep him calm as veterinarian
Elizabeth Gray checked his
eyes and ears and listened to
his heart.
‘A great deal of
patience’
Infections,
orthopedic issues
“Anyone who adopts
these dogs will need a great
deal of patience,” said Becky
Stock, BrightSide executive
director, noting they’ve never
been potty trained, walked on
a leash or socialized to play
with other dogs.
Stock said a BrightSide
trainer will spend the next
few weeks reading to the
dogs so they get used to hear-
ing voices and hand-feeding
them to build up trust.
Stock said once they are
adopted, their owners may
receive special training.
On Monday at the
Humane Society of Central
Oregon, dogs were brought in
one by one from their pens for
Some of the older dogs
have foot infections from
standing on grates for long
periods, and the larger dogs
have orthopedic issues as a
result of being con¿ned to
too-small kennels. Apollo,
a 129-pound mastiff with
droopy jowls, has asymmet-
rical hips, large callouses
on his back legs and broken
teeth, most likely from chew-
ing on his kennel.
But a bigger concern than
the medical issues is how
fearful these dogs are. While
other dogs in the shelter howl
and bark and compete for
attention, these dogs lie qui-
etly in the corners of their
pens.

When asked during the
meeting what the developer
meant by “community center,”
Radditz said the developer’s
response to her inquiry was
“‘we’ll share it as it comes.’”
“My understanding — and
I have not seen the paperwork
— is that the Lum’s property
that’s just … adjacent to the
Performing Arts Center, is also
under contract, and the due dil-
igence period has begun on
that, as well as the house to the
east of that,” Radditz said. “All
of that property is under con-
tract at this point.”
The Performing Arts Cen-
ter and Josie Peper Build-
ing owned by the college are
on the same city block as
the former Lum’s Auto Cen-
ter, which currently houses
the Clatsop County Sher-
iff’s Of¿ce Parole Proba-
tion Department. The Gordon
David Lum Trust also owns a
house on the eastern edge of
the block. Ann Samuelson, a
Realtor representing the Lum
family, declined to comment
on any pending offer.
Lack of information
Community members and
some on the college’s board
expressed a lack of under-
standing about the devel-
oper’s intent, and how the
Performing Arts Center ¿t
into an affordable housing
development.
Radditz and Skip Hauke,
director of the Astoria-War-
renton Chamber of Com-
merce, were the only outspo-
ken proponents of the offer,
citing Astoria’s continuing
housing crisis. Public com-
ment was largely dominated
by people who use the Per-
forming Arts Center, which
is maintained by a myriad of
about 10 groups organized
under Partners for the PAC,
attesting to the venue’s impor-
tance as an affordable practice
and performance space.
“Why would the developer
want the PAC?” asked Char-
lene Larson, co-chairwoman
of the Partners.
She said the group had
been denied a meeting with
the developer to inquire about
their intent for the building.
Josie Peper, the namesake
of the building next to the
center, said the college should
be wary of promises to pre-
serve the building, and that
the developer should show
more than an intent to build
affordable housing.
The center went up in the
1930s as the Trinity Lutheran
Church. It was purchased by
the college in the early 1970s
and used for now-nonexistent
performing arts programs.
The college has not held any
classes in the center for sev-
eral years, but the building is
a popular venue for theatrical
performances and concerts.
JoAnn Zahn, the college’s
vice president of ¿nance and
operations, said the building
faces more than $1 million in
deferred maintenance. Greg
Dorcheus, the college’s physi-
cal plant manager, said the ¿re
marshal has kept the building
open but recommended some
major renovations, notably to
remedy the lack of a ¿re sup-
pression system on the main
Àoor and upstairs.
“I continue to not under-
stand how the PAC and Josie
Peper ¿t into a larger afford-
able housing project,” said
board member Patrick Wing-
ard, questioning how a build-
ing needing more than $1 mil-
lion in deferred maintenance
could help with affordable
housing.
Radditz said the buyer did
not know about the deferred
maintenance, having not per-
formed any inspections before
a ¿ve-month due diligence
period that would have kicked
in after the acceptance of the
offer.
Last September, the Asto-
ria City Council rejected a
request by the college for a
zoning change that would
have allowed an interested
buyer to covert the Josie
Peper Building into a second
home and vacation rental. The
change — from high-density
residential to general com-
mercial — would have also
covered the Performing Arts
Center.
Neighbors complained a
vacation rental would have
been detrimental to the his-
toric
Shively-McClure
neighborhood.
The City Council found
that second homes and vaca-
tion rentals make it more dif-
¿cult for the city to attract
affordable housing.
BEND — Twenty-eight
dogs raised on a South
Korean dog-meat farm were
brought to central Oregon
over the weekend, part of a
campaign by Humane Soci-
ety International to end the
dog-meat trade in Asia.
The Humane Society of
Central Oregon, in Bend,
took in 17 dogs, including six
puppies; BrightSide Animal
Center in Redmond took in
11 dogs, from 4 months to 2
years old. Of¿cials say all of
the dogs need to be assessed
for medical and behavioral
issues before they can be put
up for adoption.
While dogs are used as
meat for human consump-
tion in other countries,
South Korea is the only
place they are raised on
farms for that purpose, said
Adam Parascandola, direc-
tor of animal protection and
crisis response for Humane
Society International. Last
year the group started work-
ing with farmers directly
to close them down, pay-
ing the farmers to demol-
ish their kennels and switch
to another operation that
doesn’t involve raising ani-
mals for meat.
It closed four farms and
relocated 236 dogs last year.
Earlier this year it closed
one farm in Wonju, South
Korea, with 270 dogs, which
is where the dogs brought to
Central Oregon came from.

“Without her dedication to

not be as successful as we are,”
the board said. “Rosemary

The Liberty is one of the

the historic 91-year-old the-
