Wheel Fun has begun work on the track system of
its Avenue C location. “We hope to have the train
up and running by spring break,” said Wheel Fun
owner Patrick Duhachek. “Although a lot of track is
down, a lot of the worn rail needs to be replaced and
additional track purchased.”
Heather Reynolds steps down after 25 years
By NICOLE BALES
The Astorian
Heather
Reynolds,
who has served as Clatsop
County counsel for 25 years,
has announced she will step
down.
The recruitment and
selection process to replace
her is expected to take about
six months. Reynolds plans
to stay on until someone is
hired.
“Heather has been an
instrumental member of
the county team for many
years,” County Manager
Don Bohn said in an email.
“I am gratifi ed that she will
be staying on during the
transition to new counsel.
Her experience and sage
legal advice will be missed
— but thankfully she will
be close by and we won’t be
shy reaching out.”
Reynolds’
announce-
ment comes one year before
her
con-
tract ends.
She said the
decision by
the county
Board
of
Commis-
Heather
sioners to
Reynolds
appoint
a
parliamen-
tarian earlier this year pre-
cipitated her to leave early.
Sarah Nebeker, the com-
mission’s
chairwoman,
named Larry Taylor, a long-
time Democratic Party
activist, as parliamentarian
to help advise her on how to
run board meetings.
“The hiring of the parlia-
mentarian was clearly a vote
of no confi dence in some
of the abilities of coun-
sel and I felt that … if that
was a concern of theirs then
they needed to have some-
one address those concerns
in one position,” Reynolds
said. “It’s diffi cult to control
a meeting when there’s two
point people on it.”
Moving forward, she
recommends county com-
missioners hire an in-house
county counsel as opposed
to a contract attorney like
her.
“What happens is the
fi res get fought, but the plan-
ning to prevent the next fi re
doesn’t get done and we
really need someone full
time,” Reynolds said.
Reynolds said she thinks
it is a good time for the tran-
sition now that the county
has Bohn’s leadership.
“He is absolutely fan-
tastic and I knew that with
his years of experience that
a new counsel coming in
would have a lot of support
and guidance. And that’s a
good time to bring someone
in if you want them to stay
for a while, which we do,”
she said.
Reynolds will continue
her private legal practice,
but plans to cut back on her
public work and focus on
land and business transac-
tions and estate planning.
She is looking forward to
taking longer vacations with
her husband.
“The historical knowl-
edge she has of the county
for the past 20-plus years is
going to be a signifi cant loss
to the county,” said Monica
Steele, the county’s budget
director and assistant county
manager.
Reynolds moved to Clat-
sop County in 1981 and
began working at Macdon-
ald, McAllister Snow after
graduating from law school
at Willamette University.
After a couple of years,
she went out on her own.
In between her career as
an attorney, she spent eight
years as a judge in Clatsop
and Pacifi c counties until
she found being a judge did
not suit her personality.
Reynolds became the
county counsel in 1995.
The county contracts with
private attorneys and legal
fi rms for legal services,
but Reynolds has served as
the county’s steady legal
adviser.
“I was always kind of the
one that managed the stable
of lawyers and opened and
shut the barn door, I guess
you could say,” she said.
“Heather has been a great
asset to Clatsop County, her
experience and wisdom will
be impossible to replace,”
Blair Henningsgaard, an
Astoria attorney, said in an
email. “She has a gift for
clearly and forcefully advo-
cating a position without
being offensive.”
Reynolds and Hennings-
gaard served as co-county
counsels for several years.
During her time as
county counsel, Reyn-
olds has worked with over
a dozen county managers.
She said the legal adviser
for a county is traditionally
— and should be — a posi-
tion of stability.
She said a lot of what
she has done through the
years has depended on the
strengths and desires of the
county manager.
“So in times when there’s
an interim I tend to be more
involved in some of the
day-to-day issues. And then
when there’s a manager with
a set program and things are
organized, I tend to be more
focused on the legal issues
of what people are working
on,” Reynolds said.
“I just tried to do my best
for the county and keep it on
a steady course and keep it
out of trouble,” she said.
Reynolds said she has
enjoyed the people she has
worked with over the years,
especially the county staff.
“I think the county is
incredibly lucky to have the
dedicated staff that it has,”
she said. “Many of them are
such experts in their fi elds.”
bound told police she saw the
vehicle lose control and crash.
The state police offi cer at the
scene of the incident report-
ed that at 10:28 a.m. while on
scene, he observed a driver trav-
eling westbound near Mile Post
11 driving at an unsafe speed
given the icy conditions.
This vehicle, pulling a box
trailer, was in the passing lane
and passing other vehicles
when it passed out of sight of
the offi cer; at the next curve, the
driver lost control of the vehicle
and jackknifed it, striking the
guard rail, causing substantial
damage to his truck, trailer, and
the ODOT guard rail. No injuries
were reported.
