Manzanita emergency prep group hosts
talk to address tsunami evacuation study
County makes extra on jail bond sale
The Daily Astorian
Clatsop County made
more than $23.4 million on
the sale of nearly $20 mil-
lion worth of general obli-
gation bonds approved by
voters to relocate the jail
from Astoria to the former
North Coast Youth Correc-
tional Facility in Warrenton.
The $3.4 million pre-
mium will be kept in reserve
to help offset any cost over-
runs. Because of a strong
fi nancial rating for the
county, the bonds will also
cost property owners 20
cents per $1,000 of assessed
value, instead of the 21
cents originally estimated.
“We are beyond ecstatic
at the results of this recent
bond sale,” Monica Steele,
the interim county man-
ager, said in a news release.
“This is a perfect exam-
ple of strong budget poli-
cies that instill prudent fi s-
cal management. Clatsop
County taxpayers will reap
substantial savings due to
these efforts.”
Carol Samuels, manag-
ing director for the invest-
ment bank Piper Jaffray,
said in the release that
“investors are increasingly
focused on credit quality
and the rating of the issuer.
The county’s rating from
Moody’s, which refl ects the
strong fi nancial manage-
ment of the county and the
economic stability of the
community, was critical to
the bond sale and an import-
ant factor driving demand
for the bonds.”
Investors have looked
favorably upon bonds amid
an erratic stock market,
leading to similarly strong
results for other local sales.
The Astoria School Dis-
trict received a $9.4 mil-
lion premium on the sale of
$70 million worth of bonds
to remodel and rebuild por-
tions of its four campuses.
Warrenton received nearly
$4 million more than the
$38.5 million in bonds vot-
ers approved to buy a mas-
ter campus and build a new
middle school.

The proposed cleanup
includes removal of con-

spots,
placement of an upland
gravel cap and an in-wa-

enhance the natural recov-

The project requires
federal review because of
the company’s previous

has stated that the cleanup,
estimated at more than $2
million, will result in its
closure sometime this year.
