Next step for district: UGB expansion
Bond from Page 1A
“This victory belongs to
our community which had the
foresight to see how important
high quality schools are to the
future of everyone who lives in
the Seaside School District,”
Superintendent-emeritus
Doug Dougherty said. “New
schools benefit the entire com-
munity, strengthen our econo-
my and, in this case, provide a
safe place for all in an emer-
gency. From retirees to those
just starting out, employees to
business owners, children and
families; education touches
everyone and strengthens the
fiber and opportunity of our
community.”
The bond came three years
after a failed $128.8 million
dollar plan. The scaled-back
proposal eliminated an au-
ditorium, covered bleachers,
long-term emergency shelters
and a varsity playing field.
The new bond equates to
about $1.35 per thousand, a
37.5 percent total reduction in
cost from the previous bond.
A home with an assessed val-
ue of $200,000 would see a
tax hike of about $270 and a
ca n n on
bea ch
GAZ E T T E
$400,000 home about $540.
Advocates of the proposal,
including Vote Yes For Our
Local Schools, presented a
sustained campaign to pro-
mote the bond, which, they
said, was necessary not only
for the safety of the students
but because of the condition
of the schools. Gearhart El-
ementary School, Broadway
Middle School and Seaside
High School were built with
an expected life span of 45 to
50 years. Each has been used
beyond that span. Dougherty
described the schools as un-
safe, deteriorating and “very
inefficient.”
With a land gift of 80 acres
from Weyerhaeuser Co. in the
East Hills, along with favor-
able interest rates and a like-
lihood of limited matching
funds from the state, propo-
nents said “this was the best
time” to pass the bond.
“It really shows that this
community cares about its kids,
its families and its economic
prosperity,” said Gail Dun-
das of Vote Yes for Our Local
Schools. “I’m still just reeling
from the wonder of it all.”
“We’ve very happy,” said
Seaside School District Su-
perintendent Sheila Roley.
“What I’m feeling is an in-
credible level of gratitude
to our community and our
students, and the way people
have come together to support
our students and our learning.
It’s a wonderful testament to
how our community oper-
ates.”
Next steps, Dougherty
said in October, the school
district would approach the
City Council for an urban
growth boundary expansion,
a process joined by the county
and the state. The expansion
enabling roads and services
could be completed within a
year. Schools are expected to
be completed at the new loca-
tion within four years.
“Thank you to so many
people who made this happen
for our kids,” Roley said.
“I couldn’t be more proud
of our community for step-
ping forward and making a
truly historic decision that will
improve the lives of children
and families for generations to
come,” Dougherty added.
McCarthy says candidates ‘pretty
much agreed’ on the main issues
Council from Page 1A
A 24-year resident, Ogil-
vie is a carpentry contractor
and affordable housing task
force member who previous-
ly served as Planning Com-
mission chair. He has said his
career helps him understand
certain land use issues and he
considers civic participation
important.
“I guess I’m going to be
a City Councilor,” McCar-
thy said. “I think the other
two candidates are both great
people. I think we all pretty
much agreed on the things
that needed to be done here in
Cannon Beach. I’m going to
be pleased to serve with Bran-
don and I think he will make
a wonderful addition to City
Council.”
McCarthy, a 10-year perma-
nent resident, is a former editor
and reporter for the Cannon
Beach Gazette and The Daily
Astorian. While running, she
advocated for affordable hous-
ing and maintaining Cannon
Herb Florer
Beach’s village atmosphere
through balancing the needs of
year-round residents with the
tourism industry.
McCarthy said she plans
to address affordable housing,
emergency planning, short-
term rentals and how lodging
taxes are used.
McCarthy said she was
impressed by how Tillamook
County responded to the Man-
zanita tornado.
“I’d like to see us look at
that and do something in a
similar way,” she said. “We are
well prepared but we just need
to continue to do more.”
McCarthy said the race was
“low-key.”
“There wasn’t a whole lot
of campaigning done by any-
one,” she said. “The candidates
forum really brought out what
our positions were on the sub-
jects.”
Ogilvie said the candidates
forum was the highlight of the
race.
“We all came together and I
think it gave people that were
there a chance to see what we
were representing,” Ogilvie
said.
Florer, a 12-year-resident,
is an emergency preparedness
committee member and former
Port of Astoria deputy director,
budget committee member and
planning commissioner. During
the campaign, he emphasized
the importance of emergency
preparation, long-term resilien-
cy and infrastructure.
The elected candidates
will join Mayor Sam Steidel,
Councilor Mike Benefield and
Councilor George Vetter in
January.
