EIGHT - Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, August 17,2005 Grant allows continued public access to Pendleton area property for upland bird hunting A $13,664 grant from the Oregon Department of Fish and W ildlife A ccess and Habitat Program will allow continued public hunting ac cess for pheasant and other upland birds on 12,500 acres o f p riv ate p roperty ju s t southwest of Pendleton. The A&H Program is funded by a $2 surcharge on hunting licenses. Funds raised by the program are distributed through grants to individual and corporate landowners, conservation organizations and others for cooperative wildlife habitat improvement and hunter ac cess projects throughout the state. BEO sponsors all around saddle The rolling grasslands of the Pendleton area boasts some of the best pheasant populations in Oregon, but because most of the area is p riv ately ow ned, public hunting access is very diffi cult to find. To make more upland bird hunting available to the public, ODFW created the Coombs Canyon Regu lated Hunt A rea in 1999 through a cooperative agree m ent with rancher Steve Wolfe, who allows open bird hunting access to his 12,500- property in return for an an nual per acre payment. The current access agreem ent covers the period from Oct. 1, 2005 through March 31, 2006. ODFW staff and Oregon Heppner T.V.

A quick run-down: For the seller, closing costs normally involve real estate com m ission, termite clear ance, title insurance, escrow fees and fees associated with paying off any existing loans. Some areas also have transfer taxes that are paid by the seller. These are all deducted from the gross sales price, along with the remaining bal ance of any loans. For the buyer, closing costs Past Real Estate columns and property listings are available at www.heppner.net/heritage may entail loan fees such as appraisal, credit report, docu ment fees and loan discount points, in addition to title and recording fees. Insurance pre miums and prepaid interest on the new loan are also common closing costs. Although who pays for which costs can be negotiated between the parties, most re gions of the country have their own customary fees and nor mal d ivision betw een the buyer and seller as to who pays what. t • TV F 180 W.
