Lampi leads Ackley by
one vote in Warrenton
WARRENTON — Ryan Lampi leads Warrenton
City Commissioner Pam Ackley by a single vote after
ballots were counted on Tuesday .
Lampi had 1,079 votes — or 49.59 percent — to
Ackley’s 1,078 votes — or 49.54 percent.
“Well, it’s about as close as you can possibly get,”
Ackley said, laughing.
The race may be one vote apart right now, but the
Elections Division still has a number of uncounted
ballots to process. These primarily involve ballots in
which the signatures on the mail-in envelopes do not
match voters’ signatures on their registration cards,
Clatsop County Clerk Valerie Crafard said. Those
voters will be contacted by elections staff and asked
to come to the Elections Division offi ce to resolve the
discrepancies, she said.
If a one-vote difference remains, it will trigger an
automatic hand recount under state law.
“I’m defi nitely excited; it’s hard not to be excited
right now,” Lampi said. “But it’s also hard to be
excited, with it being this close.”
Lampi said he will wait until the fi nal results are
known to celebrate. And, if he remains the winner,
“I’m excited to be a new Warrenton city commis-
sioner and get to work,” he said.
Both candidates, vying for Position 1, ran on
pro-development platforms.
Lampi, 26, serves on the Planning Commission
and is a project manager at Big River Construction
in Astoria. He said he wants Warrenton to be a place
where a person can establish a career and raise a
family.
Ackley, 55, a Realtor with Windermere Stellar

The Daily Astorian
WARRENTON — Voters on Tuesday backed a
ballot measure that forces the city to get double-major-
ity voter approval to transfer assets like Tansy Point.
Ken Yuill, a retired utility technician, and others
opposed to a potential land swap between the city and
Warrenton Fiber for Tansy Point in 2014 were behind
the ballot measure. The measure requires the city to
obtain double-majority voter approval to dispose of
assets valued at more than $100,000.
The City Commission objected to the ballot mea-
sure, warning that it would handcuff the city and could
apply to assets such as fi re trucks and water and sewer
pipes.
Double-majority voter approval means that a
majority of voters must vote “yes” in an election
that attracts more than half of all registered voters, a

tional local industries. She also said Warrenton could
use more manufacturing jobs.
In January, she will polish off two years on the
commission. Ackley was originally appointed to fi ll
a vacancy created when Mark Kujala was elected
mayor. She lost the 2014 general election to Com-
missioner Rick Newton and was the sole applicant for
Kujala’s seat.
“Of course, I’d be elated to continue to be on the
City Commission. I think it’s defi nitely a worthwhile
opportunity,” she said, adding that, if she doesn’t win,
it will not change her commitment to the community.
Warrenton’s pressing issues include: adjusting the
development code to encourage the building of more
housing stock; resolving the Eighth Street Dam prop-
erty dispute between the city and the Skipanon Water
Control District ; and challenging the Federal Emer-
gency Management Agency’s preliminary fl ood maps
that may overstate the fl ood risk along the waterfront
and create huge spikes in insurance rates.
The winner will work on a commission led by
Kujala and commissioners Henry Balensifer, Tom
Dyer and Rick Newton. Balensifer and Dyer were
unopposed Tuesday.

WARRENTON
How you voted in the 2016 election
high standard. As a precaution, the City Commission
adopted a rule earlier this year that required such bal-
lot measures to get double-majority voter approval
before becoming law.
The ballot measure passed in a 56 percent to 44
percent vote.
“It boils down to the fact that our committee felt
that the voters should have the fi nal say on the sale
of the large city-owned assets,” Yuill said in an email.
Yuill, who led the Warrenton Property Protection
Committee, was among several residents who argued
against the land swap involving Tansy Point two years
ago.
Warrenton Fiber, which leases land from the city
at Tansy Point, wanted to acquire the property in
exchange for land off Dolphin Avenue and a promise
to build the city a new Public Works center. The City
Commission chose not to move forward with the land
swap after hearing public concerns.
“I think this measure is poorly written,” City Com-
missioner Henry Balensifer said in a text message.
“It is too broad in its restriction, and doesn’t really
address the issue at the heart of the matter.”
