Currently, the City of Ione does not have a commu- nity-wide wastewater col- lection or disposal system. Each residence and/or business has an individual septic tank and drainfield. The purpose of the fund- ing application is to seek loan assistance and grants that would fulfill the re- quired funding for the City of Ione to construct a new community-wide wastewater system. The project includes installing a new effluent collection system of small-diameter pipes, new individual sep- tic tanks, a lift station and effluent forcemain, and a new community drainfield, as outlined in the Waste- water Feasibility Study Amendment adopted in 2021 by the City of Ione. All interested parties wish- ing to present comments on the proposed application are urged to contact the City of Ione for informa- tion on the project. Project information including the Wastewater Feasibility Study Amendment and other supporting documen- tation are available for re- view at Ione City Hall 385 W. 2nd Street, Ione, Ore- gon. Published: October 26, 2022 Affidavit NOTICE Heppner City Council -Continued from PAGE ONE transmission,” he said. bids for Riverside and Linden Way but had not yet received those. The compa- ny has not returned to do the striping on streets already paved. He also said he had requested a small city allot- ment grant to repave around the hospital but was not optimistic about receiving the grant. The council also heard an update on a property on May St. The Oregon De- partment of Health had put a lien against the property. City Attorney Bill Kuhn said he had contacted the state and they had released the property from the lien on the condition that the property owner follow through with some paper- work. Kuhn said he had not been able to get the property owner to follow through on the paperwork. Council member John Bowles said he had been approached by another resident who was willing to help with that process. In other business, the council heard from Hep- pner resident Dale Boyd, who expressed concern about semis and campers going up Chase St. to try to get to Willow Creek Res- ervoir and Willow Creek Rd. He said it doesn’t hap- pen a lot, but there isn’t a good place to turn around, and it’s difficult for trucks and campers to back down Chase St. safely. Truckers following their GPS have already damaged a road sign and backed into a res- ident’s fence. There is cur- rently a sign at the bottom of the hill indicating that it is not a through street. The road does continue through at the top of Chase, but that part of it is owned by the Army Corps of En- gineers, which has that portion gated off. Council members discussed whether it would be possible for the city or fire department to have access to the gate keys for such an eventuality but were told that was unlikely and that the process of re- questing access could take years. It was decided to first see if there was a way to make the signage stand out more and see if that solved the issue. The council heard a report on the city’s financial statement. Cutsforth not- ed that the budget looked good except for the price of fuel. “Don’t be surprised if that has to be correct- ed,” he said, referring to rising fuel costs. Doherty also pointed out that a new transmission for one of the city trucks was included in the public works spending. It was a one-time cost but, “I usually spend most of that budget without a new October 18, 2022 The Morrow County Sheriff’s Office has in its physical possession the unclaimed personal prop- erty described below.

The council voted to approve the liquor license for Dollar General. In other business: Eric Chick gave the fire chief’s report in lieu of fire chief Steve Rhea. He re- ported two lift assists, four securements of the landing zone, three motor vehicle accidents, one mutual aid each for brush fires in Ione and Gilliam County, a brush fire in Heppner, a smoke check at Heppner High School, and a false alarm activation at Heppner Ele- mentary School. He said the false alarm was good experience for the fire department. “We got to work with the sheriff’s office and see their proto- cols,” he said. He also reported one “possible” motor vehicle accident that they were unable to locate, and 15 fire chief calls. Chick said they have been conducting prescribed burning around town and have been working on pur- chase of a Type 3 engine, which would be purchased through the rural fire de- partment. U n d e r s h e r i ff J o h n Bowles reported 422 hours worked by the Morrow County Sheriff’s Office in Heppner and said that traffic stops are up. He also report- ed that Sheriff Matlack is retiring on Nov. 1. Doherty gave the pub- lic works report. He said he had arranged for an employee to go to school in Pasco, WA to get his Com- mercial Driver License. The class would last five weeks and would cost $5,000 plus wages and per diem. The council discussed the need to have a contract saying that the employee would stay and work for the city for a set amount of time or have to pay back a portion of the cost of the CDL. Doherty agreed that might be a good idea. The council also heard from Barb Orwick, who reported that the Neigh- borhood Center handed out more than 200 food boxes last month and has three new volunteers. She also said the Neighborhood Center has lots of Hallow- een costumes available and are gearing up for the annual food drive at the be- ginning of November. The center is looking especially for pop-top canned soups, chili, hash or things that can be reheated. The Heppner Planning Commission reported that a resident on Frank Gilliam Drive had received a slight variance to build a large shop on his property.
