Market: Experience food, crafts, music and more at Seaside Farmers Market

But it’s hard for Wildt to
pick a favorite.
“Some days I’m the
mood for fudge, some days
I’m in the mood for gelato.
One of my favorite things is
to get fresh produce at the
market,” said Wildt.
Wildt’s experience with
the local farmers markets
circuit comes as a vendor for
the Nehalem Bay Winery
where she worked for sev-
eral years. But she attributed
her love of markets to the
fi rst time she went to an out-
door market when she was
stationed overseas in Spain.
It sparked a lifelong love
affair with outdoor vending.
Wildt, who was hired by
Sunset Park and Recreation
District three years ago, is
particularly excited about
the live music performances,
including Robby Mayer who
will be playing on July 31.
Musicians play for most of
the market. A calendar of
performers can be found at

During a bathing load,
water overfl ows the gutter
system and can spill over to
the drains for the main pool.
If the drains were to clog,
the potential for cross con-
tamination of the two bodies
of water is increased.
Project work is estimated
at about $90,000, Archibald
said.
The district expects to
use funds from the repair
and maintenance or the
operating lines of the aquat-
ics budget. It also is possible
that the district will need to
look at a supplemental bud-
get sometime during the fi s-
cal year, which, he said, “is
not uncommon.”
To maximize the shut-
down time, the contractor,
who is yet to be selected,
will replaster the learner
pool for the fi rst time since
its construction 18 years
ago.
Included will be an under-
water lighting upgrade to
LED lights. Drainage in the
spa will also be improved
and brought up to full com-
pliance with the Oregon
Health Code.
Sunset Pool users will
be offered reciprocal use of
pools in municipal Nehalem
or Astoria. “We’ll pay for
their membership while
they’re there, or we’ll extend
their membership if they
choose not to go to those
places,” Archibald said.
“We’ll pay for their mem-
bership while they’re there,
or we’ll extend their mem-
bership if they choose not to
go to those places.”

Board members sworn in at Sunset Park and Rec District

“Our fi rst point of business on the
agenda is the swearing in of board mem-
bers,” said Sunset Empire Park and Rec-
reation District’s board member Jeremy
Mills.
Lindsey Morrison and John Chap-
man stepped up by taking the oath of
offi ce before Executive Director Skyler
Archibald.
Chapman received 332 votes in a tight
four-person race for Position 4. Less than
2 percentage points separated all four
candidates.
In 2017, the pool closed
for two months for main-
tenance repairs, including
plaster of the main lap pool,
In the Position 5 Recreation District
board race, Lindsey Morrison won with
41.75% of the vote in a three-person race.
The board then selected a board presi-
dent, vice president and secretary.
The president is trusted to run the
monthly board meetings and taking
responsibility for initiatives of the board,
Archibald said.
Board members unanimously nomi-
nated and selected Jeremy Mills as board
president and board member Michael
Hinton vice president and secretary.

the application process
before a conditional-use
permit is approved — out-
lines responsibilities, such
as picking up trash, resolv-
ing noise and parking vio-
lations, and maintaining a
complaint log to be made
available to the city upon
request. The local con-
tact also must be a perma-
nent resident who resides
within Clatsop County or
an employee of a prop-
erty management company
with a physical offi ce in the
county, although Cupples
said the commission could
make the provision more
restrictive if they want.
Planning Commission
members commended the
proposed document and
what it could accomplish
in terms of preventing con-
fl ict by ensuring neigh-
bors and friends who take
on the role of local contact
realize and acknowledge
their responsibilities.
“We’ve had troubles
and this is a resolution to
maybe make things work
better,” Commissioner Teri
Carpenter said.
The second docu-
ment Cupples presented is
another form to be signed
by the VRD local contact
acknowledging that viola-
tions could “result in the
commission’s review of
the (conditional-use per-
mit) and ultimately result
in the loss of a VRD
permit.”
Distributing the
new standards
Commission
member
David Posalski asked what
the commission could do
to retroactively enforce the
new standards on exist-
ing VRD owners and local
contacts.
“Not very much,” Cup-
ples said, adding whenever
the city grants a condition-
al-use permit for any pur-
pose, it’s diffi cult to go back
and change conditions for
approval that were already
set.
“It’s like taking away
something you already made
a decision on,” he said.
After discussion, the
commission
members
agreed they could poten-
tially contact property own-
ers and request voluntary
compliance in having their
local contacts sign the doc-
uments in the interest of pre-
venting problems that could
lead to their conditional-use
permit being reviewed.
Doing so could also make
them aware of the current
standards.
If complaints about a
specifi c property are made,
however, that could be “the
catalyst” to make compli-
ance mandatory, Carpenter
said.
Cupples planned to refi ne
the proposed documents
and incorporate suggestions
from planning commission
members ahead of their joint
work session with the Sea-
side City Council at 6 p.m.
Monday, July 29.

Justin Dunlap introducing his daughter Isla to the joys of trail
cleanup.
Kathy Pattison and Elaine Mullen didn’t let a little rain deter
them from participating in the trail grooming.
Cleanup: Volunteers perform light trail maintenance
Continued from Page A1
Elaine Mullen has only
lived in Gearhart about
fi ve months, but she was
enthusiastic.
Possibly the most excited
volunteer of the day was
a dog named Star, who
belongs to Janet Elliott.
“This part of the Ridge
Path is our regular evening
walk,” Elliott said. “Some-
times when we walk, I bring
my pruning shears and do a
little trimming while we’re
out and about.”
Justin Dunlap lives in the
Shamrock Pines neighbor-
hood. He brought his young
daughter Isla along for the
cleanup.
“We love the Ridge
Path,” Dunlap said. “It’s
amazing to have this lush,
tucked-away natural area so
close by.”
The Gearhart Ridge Path
is a maintained walking trail
in the city of Gearhart. It’s
perfect for families or any-
one who wants a little taste
of nature off the beaten
path. The path is a right of
way that ambles past cot-
tage backyards and crosses
dead-end streets. It’s never
crowded; you can’t get lost;
if you’re lucky, you may
even see elk or deer.
And here’s the kicker: we’re
federally insured!
