‘How do you feel abut the presidential candidates?’
“It’s scary, either
way.”
“I don’t know. Nei-
ther one of them is
that great. Honestly,
that’s how I feel. It’s
crazy.”
Barb Hurst, Astoria

THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK
“I’m actually astounded that Mr.
Trump is the choice of anywhere
near one half the electorate of the
U.S. The man has no qualifi cations
other than failed businesses and
bankruptcies. Hillary Clinton is not
my favorite choice, but by far the lesser
of two evils.”
Chuck Meyer, Astoria

County voted
to dissolve
design panel
By LYRA FONTAINE
The Daily Astorian
ARCH CAPE — Support-
ers of the Arch Cape Design
Review Committee called
Clatsop County’s dissolution
of the group “unfortunate” and
“disappointing.”
Jim Jensvold, the Arch
Cape resident who success-
fully appealed the county’s
fi rst decision to dissolve the
committee — also known as
the Southwest Coastal Citi-
zens Advisory Committee —
said public testimony in favor
of the committee and calls for
compromise at various meet-
ings were ignored.
“I attended the latest Plan-
ning Commission meeting and
the recent Board of Commis-
sioners meeting,” Jensvold
wrote . “No one during public
comment spoke in favor of dis-
solving the SCCAC, which has
functioned selfl essly to protect
the character of the unincorpo-
rated southwest coastal com-
munities of Clatsop County for
about 40 years.”
A Change.org petition to
“keep citizen involvement in
Arch Cape,” which started
before the Board of Commis-
sioners meeting last week, has
184 supporters.
“Should the considerations
for communities of dairy
farms and for communities of
beachfront vacation homes be
the same?” Jensvold wrote.
“I fear their actions have cre-
ated a feeling of mistrust and
suspicion by the residents of
the unincorporated southwest
coastal communities toward

islation requiring Washington
state residents to prove U.S.
citizenship or legal residency

non citizens are not trying to
register to vote has been pro-
posed by Washington Secre-
tary of State Kim Wyman.
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.
Commissioner
Dirk Rohne has called the dis-
solution a fair outcome for all
county residents.

bor, and the rest to the Department of Ecology
for cleaning up diesel fuel.
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.
