2A • February 26, 2016 | Cannon Beach Gazette | cannonbeachgazette.com Bruce Bobek announces run for House Police to step up Noted physician seeks seat in Legislature By R.J. Marx Cannon Beach Gazette Dr. Bruce Bobek, an Asto- ria physician and president of Columbia Memorial Medical Staff, will seek the Republi- can nomination for Oregon House District 32. The district includes Clatsop County and parts of Tillamook and Wash- ington counties. The term of office, held by incumbent Deborah Boone, is two years. Bobek has lived in Clatsop County for 26 years and pre- viously served as a commis- sioner for the City of Warren- ton. During his time in office, Bobek helped fund and build the Warrenton Library, estab- lish the Warrenton Wetlands Plan, and develop the Warren- ton Business Association. “I always had an interest in politics,” Bobek, 65, said Wednesday. Bobek moved with his family to Astoria in 1990. When his youngest daughter said the city’s hills were “too high and scary,” the family, in- cluding Beverly and five chil- dren, moved to Warrenton. “I was a city commissioner in the ’90s and then my prac- tice got so busy that between my kids and my practice, I didn’t have time for politics,” Bobek said. “I helped start the Warrenton scholarship pro- gram in 1996. I was president of that for several years and now I’m on the board.”With his children grown and career solidly established, in January Bobek decided to make a bid for the Legislature. He described his political philosophy as “fiscally con- servative, but pretty open.” He said regulations are “onerous for business- es in general, and for small Dr. Bruce businesses Bobek throughout.” From a policy perspective, he said he was focused on improv- ing health care and education throughout the state. Bobek said he recognizes a need for emergency preparedness, but “would try to stay within bud- get.” “I’m all for first respond- ers, whatever we can do to help them, make it easier,” he said. “But I would be a big fan of making sure we have the money to do all these things. I would be fiscally responsible.” He said Salem was in need of change. “I appreciate DUII enforcement on St. Patrick’s Day ‘As far as medical care is concerned, the government has got it backward. They need to have an umbrella so no one goes bankrupt.’ The Cannon Beach Po- lice Department will join other Clatsop County law enforcement agencies in adding more officer patrols on roadways on March 17 to detect people driving under the influence of intoxicants. The additional focus on keeping streets safe from impaired drivers is part of the Driving While Under the Influence of Intoxicants High Visibility Enforce- ment grant from Oregon Impact. Heightened enforcement may help decrease tragic incidents that occur nation- wide on St. Patrick’s Day Dr. Bruce Bobek the work and time Debbie Boone has put in. I’m not a negative person. I’m not go- ing to say her performance is bad, but I think people would vote for an overall change of policy.” Bobek is unchallenged within his party. Primary day is May 17.
