A2 • Friday, January 17, 2020 | Seaside Signal | SeasideSignal.com Emergency cache program launched in Gearhart Storage barrels will be available to residents for a fee By R.J. MARX Seaside Signal R.J. Marx Barrels like this one will be available to Gearhart residents for a fee, to be stored near the reservoir site east of U.S. Highway 101. “You bring them. You pack them. We store them.” So read the fl yers avail- able at Gearhart City Hall as Gearhart offers residents the opportunity to store personal belongings in a cache stor- age area near the city’s water tank on Salminen Road. Residents will have the option to purchase and house cache containers, to be stored in a large conex bin. The contents are deter- mined by residents and meant to provide emergency supplies. “People will buy the drums and then rent the space,” City Administra- tor Chad Sweet said at the Wednesday, Jan. 8, City Council meeting. Suggested storage items include tents or tarps, sleep- ing bags, water storage con- tainers, warm clothing, fi rst- aid kit, sanitation supplies, batteries and cookware. “We’d like this to be a supplement to your 72-hour bag,” Sweet said. “At home, nearby or in your car, every- one should have a pack that gets you through the next three days.” A 30-gallon poly-plastic drum with lid will be stored at a cost $40 per year. Barrels are available for purchase between $60 and $80. The city owns two cargo containers 20-feet long placed on the concrete pad at the site of the water tank. Staff will have access and be able to pull people’s bar- rels twice a year to allow changes. The evacuation site will open for owners to add, remove or rotate their per- sonal cache items twice each year, in April and October. “In an emergency, the containers will be accessi- ble by key to the emergency managers of the town, police chief, fi re chief, maybe a CERT (Commu- nity Emergency Response Team) member, we’re still working that out,” Sweet said. The program is expand- able, depending on how many residents sign up. While gasoline, kerosene or plastic water bottles will not be permitted, fi rearms will also be accepted for storage, Sweet said. “We’ve decided not to restrict those. We’re more worried about liquid fuels.” To prevent vandalism, “there will be a camera sys- tem and some very good locks,” he added.
