Warrenton: Candidates are longtime residents of community
Continued from Page 1A
Lampi, 26, serves on the
Planning Commission and is a
project manager at Big River
Construction in Astoria. He
graduated from Warrenton
High School and attended Ore-
gon State University. His term
on the Planning Commission is
slated to end December 2019.
Ackley
Ackley, a permanent War-
renton resident for 25 years,
is running for Position 1 on
her community involvement,
including her two years on the
City Commission.
ton’s housing stock. The city
may modify the development
code to allow, as a conditional
use, residential development in
commercial areas.
In addition, Warrenton
should begin thinking about
how to prepare for a Cascadia
Subduction Zone megaquake,
she said. Some residents could
be out of power for six or more
months.
“That’s a conversation that
we definitely need to add to our
agenda this year,” she said.
But Warrenton, she said,
should be prepared for any cat-
astrophic blow, even an act of
terrorism.
She is the city liaison to
the Hammond Marina, a place
which is “near and dear to my
heart.” She and her husband
have kept a boat there for 35
years for commercial and sport
fishing.
Warrenton, Ackley said,
needs more well-paying manu-
facturing jobs, such as those at
the Hampton lumber mill and
Lektro, which builds towbar-
less electric aircraft tractors.
And, she said, “we still need
more housing.”
Ackley said she supports
Community
Development
Director Skip Urling’s sugges-
tions for increasing Warren-
“If they took out our power
grids, we’d be screwed,” she
said. “And how are people in
the community going to deal
with that?”
Asked why she decided
to run again, Ackley said, “I
truly believe in Warrenton and
the growth,” she said, add-
ing: “And I think that I made a
difference.”
Lampi
Lampi, who was born and
raised in Warrenton and now
has a young daughter with his
wife, is running for City Com-
mission for the same reason he
joined the Planning Commis-
sion: to get involved in the city
he loves.
He said wants others in War-
renton to have the same oppor-
tunities he’s had: To be able to
leave for college, return to their
hometown, start a career and
raise a family.
“I have a vested interest in
Warrenton,” he said. “I just
want to see it prosper.”
However, he said he’s not
running on any specific issues
or agenda.
On the housing shortage, he
said he doesn’t have the answer
for it but realizes, as many peo-
ple do, that it is a problem.
“I think everyone, collec-
tively, is trying to get on the
same page and make building a
home or a duplex or an apart-
ment complex an economi-
cal thing, something that’s not
impossible,” he said.
He believes his background
in construction engineering
management will be an asset
for the City Commission, par-
ticularly on the issues of busi-
ness and housing development.
“Warrenton’s going to grow,
whether people like it or not,”
he said. “But I want to see it
grow in a positive direction,
and I want it to be a place for
others to enjoy, for a better
quality of life.”
Neighbor: ‘I thought I heard a person screaming for help’
Continued from Page 1A
Barb, who preferred that
only her first name be used
for this article, was delighted.
After that, every time Rone
passed by, she would give
him a wave. Then one day,
Barb wasn’t there, nor the
next day, or the day after
that. Rone grew a little wor-
ried and looked for an excuse
to check in. He purchased
a bookmarker and decided
to offer her a title he had
about Northwest women set-
tlers. Mostly, he said, he just
wanted to see if she was OK.
He drove his four-wheeler up
Broken door latch
a small hill to Barb’s place
and was again surprised by
her absence.
“I was going to turn around
because I didn’t see her sit-
ting in her normal spot,” Rone
recalled. Instead, he hesitated
then continued up the hill. He
honked the horn of his four-
wheeler impulsively.
“I thought I heard a person
screaming for help,” Rone
recalled.
He yelled back. “Can you
hear me? Are you all right?”
A strained voice answered.
“Please help me. I’ve been
stuck in this bathroom since
Sunday!”
Rone told Barb who he
was and she asked if he could
get the door off. Something
had broken and now the han-
dle of the door just spun, use-
lessly. The 74-year-old woman
was trapped and had been for
several days. Rone asked if
he should call 911, but Barb
insisted she just wanted out of
the bathroom to take her meds,
feed her cats, and then maybe
herself.
Rone quickly drove home
where he grabbed a hammer
and screwdriver. He rushed
back and removed the hinges.
“Unfortunately, we live in
a time when people aren’t real
neighborly,” Rone said, as he
recalled the incident a few days
later, “but I was raised to be
neighborly.”
Within minutes the door
was off and Barb was beaming.
She had gone into the bathroom
at 6 a.m. Sunday and was freed
by Rone on Tuesday around
5 p.m. She had been stuck for
almost 60 hours.
“She was ecstatic,” Rone
said. “She was more concerned
that her pets hadn’t had food
since Sunday.”
Scary close call
Rone was ecstatic, too.
But he was also bothered that
no one had come to check on
Barb before he did and at the
thought of what could have
happened had he decided to
just turn around and not come
back.
“It really shook me up, to
be honest,” Rone said. “She
thought she was going to die.”
While trapped, Barb kept
thinking about her two cats and
her pet cockatoo. She remained
remarkably more stoic about
her own fate.
“I got to where I wasn’t hun-
gry,” Barb said.
Every time she would hear
someone come up the drive
past her house she’d let out
a holler, but “Nobody heard
me.” She started to doubt she’d
ever make it out of the bath-
room. Over those three days, “I
prayed a lot,” she said.
She tried breaking the
door down, but didn’t have
the strength. She sipped water
and even considered writing a
note to her family — a sort of
goodbye.
Thank God for Ivan
Then, Rone showed up,
driven by his worry and simple
faith in neighborly kindness.
“I thank God for Ivan, I
really do,” Barb said.
Grace: ‘I couldn’t be happier to learn about the ocean’

know coastal residents leading
ocean-related initiatives.
“I’m very interested in the
people, what motivates them,
why they’re passionate about
this or make sacrifices to do
this kind of research,” Grace
said. “The idea of everyday
heroes — they see problems
with the ocean and feel com-
pelled to do their part.”
Grace was drawn to the
ocean out of both curiosity
and concern about environ-
mental issues, such as plastics,
climate change, ocean acidifi-
cation, species depletion and
overfishing. He became inter-
ested in marine life as a scuba
diver years ago.
“I remember seeing an
incredible multitude of life,
just amazing creatures, but I
couldn’t put a name to them,
much less understand how
they’re interacting with each
other,” he said. “I wanted the
ocean to be more than a spec-
tacle and understand how it all
fits together.”
Grace began tidepooling
last year at Ecola State Park,
Cape Falcon and Haystack
Rock. In the spring, Grace
began talking to the Haystack
Rock Awareness Program
when he started seeing the red
truck.
“They were helpful in
answering my questions and
pointed me to resources where
I could learn more,” he said.
“Before I knew it, I was spend-
ing so much time there I was
answering questions as visi-
tors would come up.”
Since he was at the rock
often enough, he decided to
volunteer.
“I really appreciated what
they were doing,” he said.
“I felt inspired to join in and
try to do my part in educating
people.”
Grace supplements what he
learns from the program with
science articles and academic
journals. Though all visitors
challenge him to learn more
with their questions, Grace’s
favorite part is working with
kids.
“They are just absolutely
thrilled to be there, especially
the younger kids who still
have that unbridled enthusi-
asm,” Grace said. “It helped
me tap back into my child-
like curiosity, which I think we
could all do well to revisit at
times.”
Grace plans to begin guid-
ing private, customized tours
of the intertidal zone. Writing
about and participating in citi-
zen science — such as students
getting involved in microplas-
tics cleanups or surveying sea
stars — also interests him.
“I’m learning everything I
can,” Grace said. “I couldn’t
be happier to learn about the
ocean and I’m more interested
every single day. I jump out of
bed excited to get down there
and see what’s happening at
the ocean’s edge.”
