Kia donates to
USCG group
Warrenton Kia donated
$2,300 to the Warrenton
U.S. Coast Guard Chief Petty
Officers Association.
The donation was raised
through the sale of new Kias
sold May 15 to June 15.
The association serves
Coast Guard and military ac-
tive-duty and reserve mem-
bers, veterans and families.
“We would like to thank
Warrenton Kia for thinking
of the Chief Petty Officers As-
sociation and for their gen-
erosity in providing us with
these much-needed funds.
The money will go a long way
to supporting our mission,”
said Travis Marsh, vice pres-
ident of the CPOA’s Lower
Columbia Chapter.
The automotive dealer de-
cided to donate a portion of
every new Kia sold shortly
before Memorial Day, said
Roxanne
Williams-Morin-
ville, general manager.
“The staff at Warrenton Kia,
like many of us here on the
coast, have heard the sound,
day in and day out, of Coast
Guard helicopters on their
way to another rescue.”
Hospital’s ‘credit
score’ goes up
Fitch Ratings, one of the “big
three” credit rating agencies
for businesses in the United
States, recently upgraded its
rating for Columbia Memori-
al Hospital.
CMH’s revenue bonds and
issuer default rating went
from BBB- to A-. The default
rating affects $45 million in
long-term debt. Fitch’s rating
indicates the financial out-
look for CMH is stable.
“Our bond rating is like
your personal credit score.
It’s based on our financial
history and projections for
the future,” said Erik Thors-
en, the hospital’s chief execu-
tive officer.
The rating was based on op-
erating margins, physician
base, cost controls, Medicare
reimbursement and its affili-
ation with Oregon Health &
Sciences University.

Contractors: Board makes coastal violations sweep

Additionally, the agen-
cy shared the information
about suspected instances of
employers “paying under the
table” with state revenue and
employment departments to
ensure employers are report-
ing payroll and paying taxes.
Nearly everyone who re-
pairs, remodels or builds a
home needs a CCB license,
which means they are bond-
ed and insured and can pull
required building permits.
Additionally, the CCB pro-
vides mediation services to
help resolve disputes that
arise between homeowners
and licensed contractors.
People who use unlicensed
contractors don’t have access
to the service.
“These are important pro-
tections for the public,” Mc-
Lauchlin said. “And, all con-
tractors working legally are
required to display their CCB
license number in advertising
so consumers can easily veri-
fy they are legitimate.”
Contractors and consumers
can report unlicensed con-
tractors and other illegal ac-
