The Register-Guard newspaper of Eugene reports that the boys, one who’s 10 and the others 12, were charged with ¿rst degree arson and reckless endangerment Monday. The charges were added to counts of criminal mischief, reckless burning and reckless endangerment. Investigators say the boys were playing with ¿re -une 2 and then Àed when the Àames got out of control. The panicked boys Mumped a chainlink fence as the Àames spread, hopped on their bicycles and Àed. The parents of a ¿fth boy who left before the ¿re tipped off police -uly 1. The stadium hasn’t been used since 200 when the minorleague Eugene Emeralds left. +R\OHWRH[SORUH KLJKHURI¿FHZRQ¶W VHHNDQRWKHUWHUP SALEM (AP) — Rep. Val Hoyle says she won’t seek another term as House majority leader so she can explore a run for secretary of state. The Eugene Democrat made the announcement in an email to supporters on Tuesday, a day after lawmakers ¿nished the 2015 legislative session. Hoyle has been the No. 2 Democrat in the House behind Speaker Tina Kotek since 2013. As majority leader, she’s responsible for raising money and recruiting Democrats to run for the House. Current Secretary of State -eanne Atkins was appointed in March to replace Kate Brown, who became governor after -ohn Kitzhaber’s resignation. Atkins has said she won’t run for the of¿ce. WIMER (AP) — Construction crews are planning to move into the Evans Creek drainage and dismantle Wimer Dam while they wait for a pending permit appeal blocking the demolition of Fielder Dam. The Mail Tribune reports the Wimer Dam demolition could start next week if a ¿nal U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit is secured as expected by this week. The nearly ,000 project includes removing two of Oregon’s worst wild ¿sh impediments, both the Wimer Dam and the Fielder Dam. Crews were supposed to remove Fielder ¿rst, but a nearby landowner, who wants more studies done before demolition, ¿led an appeal. The decision on that appeal is expected later this month. Project manager Brian Barr says the instream work at Wimer Dam is expected to be complete before August.

Shane Lundgren has been looking for alternate resort locations since 200, when state lawmakers banned desti nation resorts in the Metolius River Basin. Lawmakers then created a limited window for developers such as Lundgren, who had already invested in potential resort properties, to instead develop small resorts elsewhere in the state. Umatilla, Morrow, Wheeler and Sherman counties are also eligible as locations for the small resorts. Lundgren said he was just beginning to think about potential locations for a resort, after working for months to secure a development extension from the Oregon Legislature. “We haven’t even really gotten out a map,” said Lund gren, who is the manager of Dutch Paci¿c Resources, the holding company for the Metolius River Basin resort Corrections The East Oregonian works hard to be accurate and sincerely regrets any errors.

You’re Invited... to join us for our Open House Celebration When: July 14th - 15th, 2015 Where: Renata Anderson 2237 Southwest Court Place Pendleton, OR 97801 From: 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. By appointment only. Additional evening hours available upon request. During this event, you will receive the following complimentary services from Renata: • Free hearing screening and personal hearing aid consultation. • Free demonstration of the Phonak Audéo V hearing devices, programmed for your individual hearing loss. • RISK-FREE TRIAL (nothing to lose to try them!) property. Lundgren’s development opportunity will likely survive thanks to a bill lawmakers passed in the waning hours of the legislative session on Friday. The state would give property owners who planned to build resorts in the Meto lius River Basin three more years to build elsewhere in the state, under the bill headed to Gov. Kate Brown’s desk for a signature. The bill speci¿cally lists Clatsop County as a potential site. It would give developers more time to take advantage of a deal the Legislature passed in 200, after it designated an area of critical state concern on the Metolius River and banned destination resorts in the area. -efferson County had previously allowed resorts in the area. Under the 200 bill, resort property owners in the Meto lius River Basin had until -une 2 of this year to apply to use development credits that would allow them to build “smallscale recreation” communities elsewhere in the state. There were two qualifying destination resort properties: the Metolian with more than 600 units combined of tourist lodging and singlefamily homes, and a 2,500unit development proposed by the Ponderosa Land and Cattle Co. The bill to extend the deadline by three years would allow the small resorts to be built in any county with a -une 2, 200 unemployment rate more than 110 percent of the state average. The Willamette Week newspaper ¿rst reported last week that hearings and amendments to House Bill 3431 suggested Lundgren might be interested in devel oping a resort in Clatsop County. The “smallscale recre ation” communities allowed under the 200 legislation would have smaller footprints than the destination resorts built elsewhere in Oregon. They would be limited to 320 acres, 240 units to be used primarily for tourist lodging, recreation facilities and one restaurant up to 5,000 square feet. Golf courses are not allowed, and state law imposes other conditions such as recycling irrigation water.
