On Friday, Wyman pointed to questions about the citi- the c ounty that is likely to last at least a generation. And that was entirely avoidable.” According to Oregon Coast Alliance director Cameron La Follette, “the ‘alternatives’ the county proposed for future public involvement from Arch Cape-area residents are fl imsy, makeshift, occasional and temporary.” “Southwest Coastal Citi- zens Advisory Committee did far more than provide design review,” La Follette said in an email. “It also worked on com- prehensive plan changes and ordinance review, as well as providing community input on other land use issues as they came up.” No other community in the county has a design review committee.

Smith pleaded guilty in July to charges of pollution and allowing a vessel to become dere- lict. He was sentenced to 20 days home confi ne- ment, and the state dropped theft charges related to his failure to pay moorage fees. Attorney General Bob Ferguson says derelict vessels are a serious threat to the state’s water- ways, and owners must be held accountable.
