7A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 Barn: Guided tour of livery stable set for July 2 Continued from Page 1A Used for weddings, events The barn, at 774 Paciic Way, has been used for weddings, family reunions and other commercial events. Without a conditional use permit and a building occupancy permit, according to city ofi- cials, the owners have put the health and safety of guests and residents at risk. If Smith violates the court order, she would receive a $500 ine for a zone code violation, Sweet said. This would be in addition to more than $30,000 in administrative ines racked up by Smith, an amount reduced to $15,000 by the Gearhart City Council in December. Sweet said he has not received plans for upgrades or improvements from Smith. “Nor would we at this point accept them, because right now she does not have a conditional use permit so she wouldn’t be allowed to submit plans for something that’s not allowed in that area.” Municipal Court ruling In an April submission to Circuit Court, Smith acknowledged using the property to host weddings and other events without a valid conditional use permit. However, citing a November Municipal Court decision, she denies the permit is necessary. According to the decision, she said, Gearhart zoning code “does not outright prohibit” spe- cial events at the barn, and no special use permit is required. In November, Municipal Court Judge John Orr ruled that Gearhart’s zoning code did not prohibit the types of activities conducted at the barn. Gearhart’s zoning ordinance spells out seven permitted uses by a property owner, but inds no reference, permis- sion, restriction nor regulation whatso- ever for parties, wedding parties, large group gatherings, family reunions, class reunions and the like. Two $500 zone code citations were dismissed and pending citations were withdrawn by the city. Because that decision was not appealed, Smith seeks a judgment against the city, including costs and “other relief as this court sees just and applicable.” “The Municipal Court has ruled that land use laws allow the barn to be used for weddings and similar events,” Smith said Friday. “I look forward to working with the city to satisfy the code requirements for the contin- ued use of this beautiful and import- ant structure as the irst and foremost authentic embodiment of Gearhart’s long and remarkable history.” Historic character The livery was the irst Gearhart structure and the horses and wag- ons housed there served to construct the irst Gearhart Park hotel and sur- rounding homes, as well as for trans- portation, she said. “My effort to retain the integrity of its authentic historic character supports greater understanding and appreciation for Gearhart’s long and remarkable history.” Smith plans to open the livery sta- ble to the public for a guided tour from 1 to 3 p.m. on July 2. In a related decision, barn co-owner Martha Strickland has been dismissed as a party to the case. R.J. Marx/The Daily Astorian Neacoxie Creek Barn in Gearhart. Patenaude: ‘When I learned about programming, all that passion I had as a kid came back’ Continued from Page 1A of Wisconsin studying how to better collect subatomic particles hitting sensors in Antarctica. Rehabbing himself, others Patenaude said his transfor- mation started at 23, when he needed a job and his mother told him about a posting at Astoria Pointe. “When I started working at the rehab center, I started look- ing at the choices in my life,” he said. Patenaude stopped drinking by 25. By 28, a friend intro- duced him to computer pro- gramming, which Patenaude credits as another pillar of his transformation. “When I learned about pro- gramming, all that passion I had as a kid came back,” Pat- enaude said. He spent the next year learning programming online, designing games and calculators to solve large equations. By 29, with only a GED certiicate to his name, Patenaude decided it was time to go back to school, even convincing his friend to start with him. Recognizing passion Patenaude said mathemat- ics instructor Liz Hylton rec- ognized his passion for science, and sent him an email about the NASA competition. “I told them how passionate I was about science and educa- tion, and how much of a change that was from my past,” Pat- enaude said. He joined a team of 10 peo- ple, competing against three other teams to create the best rover to wander around a mock Mars. His team created the most successful robot overall and came in second overall, with Patenaude named their MVP. Physics instructor Pat Keefe told Patenaude about the Research Experiences for Undergraduates intern- ship through the National Sci- ence Foundation. The intern- ship is taking Patenaude to River Falls, Wisconsin, where he’ll work under professors for the University of Wisconsin’s IceCube South Pole Neutrino Observatory. Neutrinos are subatomic particles produced by the decay of radioactive elements and lacking an electric charge. According to the lab, the major- ity were born about 15 billion years ago, just after the birth of the universe, while others con- tinue to be created by nuclear power stations, particle acceler- ators, nuclear bombs and atmo- spheric phenomena. The lab searches for and records the interactions of neutrinos. Patenaude said he’ll help test the eficiency of the lab’s photomultiplier tubes, as the university develops a new gen- eration of sensors. When he gets back to Asto- ria, Patenaude will spend another year at the college while applying to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stan- ford University, Oregon State University and Portland State University, where he hopes to earn a bachelor’s in computer science and a master’s in com- puter engineering or physics. He said he wants to work with artiicial intelligence or com- puter-aided navigation systems — hopefully for NASA. “I knew I was intelligent,” Patenaude said, still surprised at where his life has gone. “I was clever at talking with peo- ple, iguring out how to make a bong. I read a lot about sci- ence and a lot about history. I just didn’t think I could be one of those people who was part of history.” — Edward Stratton CL ASSIF IE D M ARK ETPL A CE P lace classified ad s o n lin e at w w w .d ailyasto rian .co m o r call 503-325-3211 N EW TOD AY !
