Waldorf: Project would include about 40 one-bedroom, studio units
Continued from Page 1A
between Astoria City Hall and
the library. Barring any shock-
ing surprises, she said, the non-
profit will likely buy the build-
ing and move forward with a
housing development.
Workforce housing
The project would include
about 40 one-bedroom and stu-
dio units.
“It would be for people that
are earning 50 and 60 percent
of median income,” Garver
said. “That’s a lot of entry-level
jobs and service-level jobs that
would make those incomes.”
On the ground floor would
be a retail outlet of about 800
square feet, for which Garver
said Innovative Housing is
open to proposals.
“We’re a year or two away
from getting the project done,
because it takes a little longer to
put affordable-housing financ-
ing together,” she said.
Garver said paying for the
project will involve lining up a

series of tax credits for histor-
ical buildings and affordable
housing, a mortgage and some
smaller grants through the State
Historic Preservation Office.
Local connection
Sarah Lu Heath, director of
the Astoria Downtown Historic
District Association, said she
learned about the Waldorf Hotel
during the Oregon Main Street
Conference in September.
Heath, formerly the state devel-
opment director for Restore
Oregon, said she told Garver
about the building, before put-
ting her in touch with City
Manager Brett Estes at a resto-
ration celebration a month later.
“We’re excited to see some-
thing done with that property,
as it sits between two key city
facilities,” Estes said of the
Waldorf.
Most of Innovative Hous-
ing’s work has been in the Port-
land area, save for a 54-unit
apartment project developed on
a rundown mobile home park
in Albany. Garver said the com-
munity came together in sup-
port of that project, a similar
sentiment she said has drawn
Innovative Housing to Astoria.
“It sounds like the com-
munity really wants the build-
ing saved, and there’s a lot of
energy around that,” Garver
said of the Waldorf.
Saved from demolition
Groat
Brothers
pur-
chased the building in 2012
for $25,000, with the intent to
tear it down for an expansion
of the library. The plan faced a
backlash from preservationists
arguing to save the 1920s-era
building as an example of Late
Commercial architecture with
Renaissance detailing. The
Historic Landmarks Commis-
sion eventually voted against
demolition.
Dennis Groat, a vice pres-
ident of Groat Brothers, had
advocated for demolishing the
building because of rot and
other structural issues he said
had created a safety issue.
Reached Monday, Groat said
he doesn’t have a problem with
the building becoming work-
force housing.
Garver said that Innova-
tive Housing, formed in 1984,
has never sold a property it
developed. “We’re a long-
term owner,” she said, adding
the nonprofit intends to keep
the building well-maintained
and available as affordable
housing.

Johnston
said
police
enforcement in problem areas
has shifted around downtown,
visiting the Sixth Street View-
ing Platform, the downtown
transit center and most recently
Marine Drive and Commercial
Street. Part of that enforcement,
he said, depends on people’s
willingness to report unlawful
activity such as impeding traf-
fic on the sidewalk and touch-
ing of people or their property.
“We’re busy; don’t get me
wrong,” Johnston said. “We’re
not looking for work, but let us
decide if we can help you.”
Johnston said police can
help “as long as we have a com-
plainant who is going to say
something other than, ‘I don’t
really want anything done; I
just kind of want them to leave.’
Because that puts us in a very
difficult situation, because we
can ask them to leave … but
then what?”
He reminded people of
the nonemergency dispatch
number — 503-325-4411 —
through which complainants
can reach a police officer.
Community Development
Director Kevin Cronin, at the
meeting Friday, said one way
to address panhandling could
be setting up collection meters
for people to donate to local ser-
vices instead of individuals.
Johnston said the police are
starting a new program called
One of the places merchants
hope the program will help is
the former Garbo’s Vintage
Wear storefront. Vacated last
year for a marijuana store but
still vacant, the storefront has
become a regular gathering spot
for a rotating group of people
loitering, panhandling, drink-
ing in public and occasion-
ally accosting passers-by. Rest-
ing and sharing a drink there
Wednesday afternoon, amid
others, were Zombie and Buck,
the nicknames they provided.

iors, we can actually start to
make some progress.”
Johnston said panhandling
hasn’t been illegal since 1996,
when a former city law against
the practice was deemed uncon-
stitutional. Loitering, sitting and
lying in public spaces is also
allowed, he said, with prohib-
itive ordinances challenged in
the courts. As for public intoxi-
cation, Johnston said, it violates
city code and results in a fine,
which people often can’t afford
to pay but costs the city money
to issue.

woman from Spokane, Wash-
ington, marked by the small
black cat she travels with,
described herself as a trav-
eler wanting to experience life
instead of being stuck to a set
job and routine. “I can’t account
for everybody, but I’m not
causing this problem,” she said
of the concerns over aggressive
behavior.
Buck, a local in his early
30s, said he was laid off in the
winter from a construction job
and fell on hard times. “We’re
loud and obnoxious sometimes,
but we’re not robbing any-
body,” he said.
Buck and Zombie both said
there is a small cross-section of
the homeless community caus-
ing problems and making life
more difficult for others just
trying to meet their basic daily
needs before moving on or find-
ing employment.
“There’s a small number of
people ruining it for the rest
of us,” Zombie said. She said
most people just want their
basic needs met, such as a place
to use the bathroom. The city
has a coded entry to the down-
town bathrooms near 13th
and Exchange streets, but has
installed port-a-potties at 16th
and Ninth streets near the Asto-
ria Riverwalk. But Buck said
the distance to the bathrooms
from downtown can deter some
people from using them
The former Garbo’s store-
front could soon get busier,
with building owner Donald
Sloan saying development will
start within the week on the
marijuana store, and that work-
ers will vacate the people out
front.
Buck said the police can
enforce the laws and move peo-
ple around, but that it won’t
change anything. “Maybe we
need more help.”
Coordinating services
The homelessness task force
Johnston was recruited to head
in 2015 after similar complaints
regarding aggressive behav-
ior resulted in port-a-potties
on 16th and Ninth streets near
the Astoria Riverwalk, along
with recommendations to advo-
cate for more centralized ser-
vices, inventory the need for
and advocate for housing and
shelter and build the capac-
ity of local nonprofit advocacy
groups like Riverfolk and Clat-
sop Community Action, which
assist with daily living needs
and housing.
Cronin said that while Asto-
ria has separate groups provid-
ing essential services, there’s no
regional authority to organize
efforts.
If he had an unlimited bud-
get, Johnston said, he’d estab-
lish a central service where peo-
ple can go for anything from
charging phones and storing
belongings to seeking addiction
treatment or getting help find-
ing employment, something
not even cities like Portland and
Eugene have been able to pro-
vide. “That’s my vision, is to
have gapless service, to have a
place where there is one place
that a person can go if they need
help, if they’re down and out.”

assignments of the trust deed by the trustee or by the beneficiary and no appointments of a successor trustee
have been made, except as recorded in the records of the county or counties in which the above described
real property is situated. Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now
remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed
except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real
property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been rec orded pursuant to
Section 86.752 (3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. There is a default by grantor or other person owing an
obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to

made is grantor's failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $9,866.76

vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater. It will be necessary for you to
contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be
advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay. By reason of the default, the be neficiary has
declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those
sums being the following, to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 6/1/2016,
and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are
due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes
and/or insurance, trustee's fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the
beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of
reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off. Nothing in this notice
shall be construed as a waiver of any fees owing to the Beneficiary under the Deed of Trust pursuant to the
terms of the loan documents. Whereof, notice hereby is given that QUALITY LOAN SERVICE

grantor had or had power to convey at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with
any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to
satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable
charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in Section 86.778 of Oregon Revised
Statutes has the right to have the foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment
to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of said principal as would not then be
due had no default occurred), together with the costs, trustee's and attorney's fees and curing any other
default complained of in the Notice of Default by tendering the performance required under the obligation or
trust deed, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for sale. Other than as shown of record,
neither the beneficiary nor the trustee has any actual notice of any person having or claiming to have any lien
upon or interest in the real property hereinabove described subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the
