Official Lincoln County 2014 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 21-5 Registration and Voting Information Measure 21-156 Lincoln County Library District Ballot Title 21-156 21-156 LOCAL OPTION TAX FOR LIBRARY SERVICES QUESTION: Shall Library District renew levy of 9¢ per $1,000 assessed value for five years, beginning 2015-2016, to fund your library? This measure renews current local option taxes. SUMMARY: This measure will renew the expiring local option tax. Approval of this measure continues providing funding at its present level for the Lincoln County Library District and the funding it provides to libraries in Lincoln City, Newport, Siletz, Toledo and Waldport. It is estimated that this measure would raise approximately $326,281 in tax revenues for 2015-2016, $332,807 in tax revenues for 2016-2017, $339,463 in tax revenues for 20172018, $346,252 in tax revenues for 2018-2019, and $353,177 in tax revenues for 2019-2020. The estimated tax cost for this measure is an ESTIMATE ONLY based on the best information available from the county assessor at the time of the estimate. Explanatory Statement Before the formation of the Lincoln County Library District, people living in unincorporated areas of Lincoln County and Depoe Bay did not have access to a public library without paying for a library card. In 1991 the city libraries of Lincoln City, Newport, Siletz, Toledo and Waldport began contracting with the Library District to receive funds for providing fee free library service to all residents of Lincoln County. In order to continue this service, voters in 2009 approved a local option tax levy at 9¢ per $1000 assessed value which expires in 2014-2015. Approval of this measure will renew the levy for another five years and allow the fee free service to continue. Who votes on this measure? Every voter living outside the city limits of Lincoln City, Newport, Toledo and Yachats. Why is renewal of the 5-year local option tax needed? To ensure that you will continue to have full access to the public libraries in Lincoln City, Newport, Siletz, Toledo and Waldport. The library services include: • Check out books, videos, DVD’s, ebooks and other library materials. • Reserve books, videos, DVD’s and other library materials 24 hours a day through the Internet • Internet access to reference databases • Computer use for Internet access: check e-mail, apply for jobs, information search, etc. • Courier service which brings materials you request from other libraries to your local library • Interlibrary Loan Services – access to materials around the state and around the world What happens if the tax does not pass? Based on current year revenue libraries will lose at least: • Driftwood (Lincoln City) - $56,813 • Newport - $84,423 • Siletz - $17,661 • Toledo - $27,217 • Waldport - $42,594 Official Lincoln County 2014 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 21-6 Measures Some or all of these things may happen at your local library if tax does not pass: • May require people living outside the city limits of Lincoln City, Newport and Toledo to purchase a library card in order to use these city libraries • Reductions in: Hours of library operation Courier service Interlibrary loans Staffing levels Purchase of books and other materials Library programs and services • Possible changes in agreements for city library usage by Library District residents (This information submitted by Chris D Boyle, President, Board of Directors, Lincoln County Library District.) Measure 21-156 Arguments Argument in Favor Argument in Favor We support our local libraries. Please join us in voting YES on Ballot Measure 21-156 – the RENEWAL of our local option tax for Lincoln County Libraries. Vote YES for Ballot Measure 21-156! Voting YES means that every person in Lincoln County continues to have access to our wonderful libraries with their diverse resources and excellent services. We value and support these critical community institutions.

This measure does NOT increase your taxes. What would we do without our libraries! For less than the cost of one book, we have access to over a quarter of a million books, ebooks, movies, CDs, magazines, newspapers, 24-hour access to online databases, AND MORE. Renewing the local option tax of 9¢ per $1,000 assessed value on your property is only $18 for a $200,000 home. The very services we value are at risk if libraries lose these funds. We especially appreciate these services: • Children and their parents find in their library a place to explore books, magazines and other material. • Students get a head start on early reading success by being given opportunities to attend library story times and other library sponsored programs. • Students who use libraries are more successful in school and often go on to be successful lifelong learners. • We depend on the public library as a place to use critical technology, networking and internet services. • We use library services to find jobs, prepare resumes, to obtain current, factual health information and as a gateway to world-wide library collections. • We communicate with family and friends via e-mail and other social networking tools available through the public library’s free Internet access. • We download best-selling ebooks and set our own due dates. • Trained library staff help us with our wide-ranging interests and needs. Every person in Lincoln County can use the diverse resources of the Driftwood Public Library in Lincoln City, Newport Public Library, Siletz Public Library, Toledo Public Library and Waldport Public Library. The public library is our meeting place. Vote YES to preserve library services. (This information furnished by the People for Lincoln County Libraries, Janet G Webster, Treasurer.)

Two years ago I promised the voters of Depoe Bay to chart a positive course of transparency and progress, to push aside personal agendas and return the town to its citizens. The result is progress. Depoe Bay is once again an exciting and progressive city whose government is working in the best interests of all citizens – not just a favored few. Here are some of the milestones of my first term: • We renegotiated a key telecommunication franchise to include fiber optic cable for city hall and other important locations as part of the deal; • We led the fight against budget uncertainties to secure dredging for Depoe Bay Harbor, which will begin in September; • We have erected a beautiful new bridge that serves as the gateway to the City Park and nature trails. The multi-purpose bridge will also support emergency and city vehicles, allowing us to protect assets and lives; • We have laid plans to restore the municipal fish plant as a viable seafood facility and replace aging harbor infrastructure that has been neglected; • We have made improvements to parks, roads and sewers and have projects underway throughout the city; • We provided funding for Kids Zone, Chamber of Commerce and Depoe Bay Food Pantry, organizations that provide critical services to our town. • As mayor, I have reached out to people that can help us: county and state officials and elected representatives at all levels. From the governor’s office to Congress, just about everybody knows who “AJ” is. If I am elected again as your mayor, I pledge to work even harder to keep Depoe Bay on track for the future. Please join me on this exciting journey. Vote for “AJ” for mayor. (This information furnished by A J (Jim) Mattila.) The above information has not been verified for accuracy by the county.

Occupation: Occupational Background: Educational Background: Prior Governmental Experience: Occupational Background: Vice Pres. Sales, Transmission (fiber optics) Group, Nortel. My name is Jo Fisher-Brown, and I am running for Depoe Bay City Council Seat #6. Educational Background: BA in Mgmt, St. Mary’s College of Ca., 1989, Moraga, Ca. I was born in Tillamook and grew up in the Pacific Northwest. I graduated from Rainier High School in Rainier, Oregon in 1979, and joined the U.S. Army in August of that year. After my enlistment ended, I spent three years living in the Republic of Panama and nine years living in Ketchikan, AK before returning to Oregon in 1995. I moved to Depoe Bay in 2008, and have enjoyed the sense of community and the wonderful advantages that only small-town coastal living can provide. I am currently employed at Things Rich & Strange in Depoe Bay and Newport, where I interact with both local people and out-of-town visitors on a daily basis. This interaction provides me with a unique viewpoint, which I believe will benefit me, and the city as a whole, as a member of Depoe Bay City Council. Prior Governmental Experience: Univ. of Wa, Telecom Mgr.; Ed Svcs District, Chelan County Wa., Consultant; Chelan County PUD, Wenatchee, Wa., Consultant; Cascade Ed. Foundation, Leavenworth, Wa., Board Member, Elected; Village Art in the Park, Leavenworth, Wa., Pres. & Board Chair, Elected; Friends of the Fish Hatchery, Leavenworth, Wa., Pres. & Board Chair, Elected. I believe in the empowerment of community building outreach strategies through collaborations and partnerships with local, state, and federal government, public private non-profits, private sector, and volunteers, all critical partners for community growth and vitality. Effective team building and collaborative commitments in Lincoln County have proven to be a successful enterprise, enhancing the quality of life for children and families, especially in education. As a US Navy veteran from the Vietnam era and a post WWII military child growing up during the 1950’s and early 1960’s, I am passionate about caring for veterans and families as a commitment to their sacrifice of service to protect our freedoms during all wars past and present. We have an eternal obligation and debt that can never be fully paid back to those who have served America in the military, as a first responder or in a public private partnership role as an employee or volunteer. We can never thank appreciate enough the service of the hundreds of volunteers in Lincoln County who work tirelessly and passionately to make a difference in our community. As a City of Depoe Bay Councilor, I promise to be fair, objective, and compassionate about community service with the goal of achieving the very best quality of life and economic growth for all citizens for generations to come. It is my duty and heartfelt honor to serve. Having lived in several communities with economies based on tourism and local natural resources, I believe that I can provide those I represent in Depoe Bay with an independent outlook from the point of view of the average citizen. My priorities as a member of City Council will be based on positive energy in order to benefit the community as a whole. I support increasing livability, local employment, and helping to promote new business interests, as well as supporting and encouraging existing business with an eye toward a sustainable year-round economy. I also strongly believe in maintaining our natural resources and city infrastructure, so that future generations will be encouraged to consider Depoe Bay as a place to visit, live, and enjoy. To those who have supported and encouraged me to run for a seat on Depoe Bay City Council, and to those individuals who consider voting for me in November, I offer a heart-felt “Thank You”.

I participated in the search for a new city manager that led to the hiring of Spencer Nebel, and I will continue to encourage improvement of the City’s infrastructure and support the city manager to keep the city’s budget sustainable. If re-elected, I will continue to work on the dramatic changes taking place in South Beach, including the building of the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry’s Coastal Discovery Center, Oregon State University’s expanded campus and commercial and residential growth.

In large part, this is due to the current council working well together in helping the city move forward productively in a number of areas. Some examples include using recommendations from the Infrastructure Task Force to keep utility rates in check, an increased focus on planning for infrastructure both near-term and long-term, community outreach and engagement on a wide variety of issues, and a continuing commitment to the Visual Arts Center location in Nye Beach. Educational Background: University of Washington: BS – Nutritional Science and Experimental Food Prior Governmental Experience: Newport Wayfinding Committee – Chair; Nye Beach Design Overlay Work Group; Lincoln County Solid Waste Advisory Committee; Newport Transportation Plan Update Work Group; Newport Futures Committee I’ve always been fascinated with the diversity of Newport: its neighborhoods and districts, harbor, lighthouses, beautiful coastline and wildlife. Since moving here 20 years ago, I’ve seen many positive changes: NOAA, OCCA, the Rec Center and the PAC, to name a few. Yet we still face tremendous challenges. We are battling to update our infrastructure. Our finances demand on-going attention. We struggle with employment and housing issues. Our natural and cultural resources need stewardship. Your vote for City Councilor will determine the future of our city. As your City Councilor, these will be my guiding principles: PLANNING What will Newport look like in 10 to 20 years? Excellent work has been done on visioning Newport’s future. Let’s use those studies, listen to citizens and get to work on progressive planning and development that honors our heritage and invigorates our future. LIVABILITY Let’s balance economic development with livability and a sustainable future. A thriving community with great neighborhoods, sustainable businesses and quality medical care will result when there is access to employment, housing, culture, shopping, recreation and viable transportation options. Coastal representation With nearly 10 years of experience as a coastal at-large representative at the state and regional level on ocean, natural resource, and other related issues, I look forward to continue to represent coastal interests on such things as further planning and mapping of our coastal waters so as to make more informed policy choices.

Prior Governmental Experience: Nye Beach overlay Committee; Chairman Airport Committee; Governors Task Force on Air Services; Astoria Newport Air Service Consortium ; OAMA Past president Newport is a unique Coastal city, pleasing to all the senses. I am proud to have resided here for the past twenty years. I appreciate our continually evolving government, effective strong citizen participation and most importantly our City employees. I am in solid support of the protection and enhancement of our natural local environment while managing a strong economic development of our area. As a City Councilor, I would continue to focus on the preservation of our area’s natural resources and work to find solutions to challenges presented by growth. As our city grows, our top priority must remain quality of life for all. We can achieve that goal through environmental protection, quality education for our youth, respecting diversity, and supporting our local economy. As a former employee of the City of Newport I brought to the General Fund more Federal and State Grants than any other administrator before or since. I believe more revenue ideas and less taxes is what grows a small community. I am aware of the challenges facing all coastal entrepreneurs. Together we must continue to develop and strengthen our economic base. Revenue generating ideas, aggressive pursuit of Grant resources, collectively supporting our local business and recruiting other businesses is our catalyst to economic development. I hope you will allow me to serve on your council. I will work hard and passionately to make Newport the quality place where we live. Occupational Background: As a state and county government employee I worked tirelessly to protect our natural resources while carefully considering the social and economic needs of communities that rely on those resources. I developed unique approaches to solving environmental issues and I have found effective ways to work with local citizen and business concerns. I was appointed to the Newport City Council in January of 2013. I felt my strongest qualification for my appointment was my environmental science background and a great deal of experience reviewing, writing and implementing both state and federal policy. With EPA’s renewed emphasis to review and overhaul the Clean Water Act and other federal legislation my background and experience continues to be a key advantage for our small city. Environmental issues are clearly my expertise, but my interest in contributing to and promoting more effective and transparent city management also extends to infrastructure, project management and budget oversight. I am interested in all aspects of providing a clean, safe, economically viable and enjoyable place to live. I am currently the council liaison or serve on the following committees: 1) Audit, 2) Bike and Pedestrian, 3) Business License Review, 4) City Manager Review Process, 5) Parks and Recreation, 6) Pool Construction, 7) Wayfinding and 8) the Visual Arts Center.

I believe that my more than 30 years in local government has been of help in moving us forward in the last three years, as local issues can be complicated and we need to make the most of our resources in everything we do. Since becoming mayor, I have worked on issues including: • Lobbying local and national railroads to get Toledo’s railroad crossings fixed; • Leading the city council and staff to obtain the least-expensive revenue bonds possible to fund vitally needed water system improvements; • Going to Salem to lobby state agencies on finishing Hwy 20 improvements and for the Port of Toledo’s expansion grant; • Leading City efforts to make best use of Toledo’s industrial property for economic development while protecting our environment; • Using correspondence and social media to promote Toledo and our events.

Billie Jo Smith: Qualified Leadership for the Citizens of Toledo Knowledgeable: In all of her endeavors, Billie Jo does the background research necessary to thoroughly understand an issue. Her years of experience on the Budget Committee have kept her informed on the financial status of the City. A Listener: Billie Jo believes that Toledo needs a Mayor who will listen to and value the opinions, questions, and experiences of its citizens, employees, commissions, committees, and City Council members. The advice of those who will be affected is critical to the understanding and resolution of any issue. I also regularly • Serve on two advisory committees of the League of Oregon Cities; • Serve on the Yaquina Bay Economic Foundation; • Act as building manager for the Flowerree Community Center; • Now act as a member of the Newport Airport Commission; • Work in the Lincoln County Food Network, seeking to promote better nutrition for all area residents. For me, the service and time commitment that I feel are needed to be a good mayor are continuations of my life-long career. I am proud of Toledo, our professional staff and services, and look forward to continuing to help bring expanded opportunities to all of our community. Gets Results: Billie Jo initiated and successfully lobbied for State legislation that provides small schools funding to Toledo and three other small high schools. Without this funding, Toledo High School would have been closed. She has the confidence and skills needed to stand up for Toledo. (This information furnished by Ralph E Grutzmacher.)

His knowledge of the City Codes and myriad of long range plans is unique and gives him a perspective that few individuals in city government possess.

He led the Planning Commission through an extensive analysis of the Transportation Plan which identified and corrected flaws that could have cost the City millions of dollars and seriously disrupted the businesses and properties along Business Hwy 20. He carefully reads and considers the City codes and recognizes wording and revisions that need to be made. These details, which are often overlooked, are vital to the functioning of the City. Jerry Seth grew up in Lincoln County and graduated from Newport High School. His parents owned the Newport A&W Drive In, which he managed for two years after his father suffered a heart attack. He left the area for 40 years, as he pursued his professional career, but returned after he retired and has lived in Toledo for over 10 years. There is work to do, and Jerry Seth is up to the task!

I have had the privilege of serving as Waldport City Councilor for the past 5 years. I again ask for your support for another term. Born on the Oregon coast, I have lived and served in Waldport for over 15 years. In the last decade I have put myself through college and my wife though OCCC’s Nursing program, all while working full time for the Marine Science Center. Additionally, as a parent of a young child, I understand the difficulties in raising children on the coast, and the lack of resources, childcare and accessible healthcare for our families. Personal. Married Carlos Lazaro last year after 26 year domestic partnership. Parent of two rescue dogs, Yogi and Maddy. I wish to serve to insure that the Open Space Project (the former HS grounds) is transferred to the city. I am a strong advocate for the construction of softball fields, which will allow softball tournaments to be brought to Waldport, a real economic boost for the city. All these participants will need a place to stay, eat and play. I also volunteered to lead the effort for a portion of the future park is set aside for resident gardens. These small patches would give flower and vegetable beds to residents who reside in housing without gardening space. Representing the younger working families on our Council, I have strived to improve park equipment, prioritize traffic safety, speed control and sidewalks. I support the effort to relocate critical services outside of the tsunami danger area, and the commitment to continue to improve all Waldport schools. I am concerned about the growth of graffiti in Waldport. This scourge can be extremely detrimental to a city. I have taken the lead, calling for a permanent reward program to those who provide information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible. I want to toughen the punishments for those found guilty, including mandatory community service doing unpopular tasks, full restitution and fines. We need a tough stance to keep youth from reoffending. If it continues, I will help form an anti graffiti group. I have supported increased law enforcement levels, and better reporting so we can understand the difficulties our town faces. Additionally, I have worked with the Council of Governments to help bring needed economic devlopment resources to our area. I will continue my progressive voice, such as strongly supporting the voter approved medical marijuana dispensaries. We cannot keep this true medication from cancer patients, MS sufferers, or those, like me, who suffer from endless chronic pain. In short, I serve Waldport to the best of my ability – I hope that you will consider allowing me to continue to do so. I welcome your ideas.

Official Lincoln County 2014 General Election Voters’ Pamphlet 21-22 Candidates City of Yachats Council Member City of Yachats Council Member Barbara E Frye Greg Scott Nonpartisan Nonpartisan Occupation: Retired Registered Nurse; Yachats City Councilor; CASA Volunteer; Member Lincoln Community Health Council; Member - Central Oregon Coast Rural Health Network Screening Committee Occupation: Retired Occupational Background: Registered Nurse, Nurse Manager OHSU and Harbor View Medical Center/UWMC; Director of Labor Program for Washington State Nurses Association Educational Background: Portland Community College - ADN -RN; Southern Oregon State College - BSN Program; Portland State University - Pre-Nursing Prior Governmental Experience: • Yachats City Council Appointed Nov 2013; Member - Lincoln Co. Community Health Council; Yachats Parks and Commons Commission - 2012-2013 I am a Registered Nurse and understand what accountability, responsibility and compassion are. I know how to listen, ask questions, assess a situation and develop a plan. I know how important it is to have measurable goals and to evaluate progress and outcomes. I have over 35 years experience working with volunteers; elected Boards; City, County and State agencies; members and community stakeholders. I serve on the Lincoln County Community Health Council in order to play an active role in health care in Lincoln County and represent the interests of Yachats. Mayor Brean and I have spent the last year working with a network of Central Oregon Coast providers to identify health access needs and potential options, and to obtain grant monies that could eventually fund an innovative and effective method of meeting basic health care needs in our communities. This has great potential, but much work needs to be done to make it a reality. Issues that affect the entire community such as, vacation rental policies, the proposed “101 sidewalk” project, future water resources, infrastructure, and fiscal realities, are just a few of the challenges that face the Council that I would like to continue working on. I pledge to listen with an open mind and serve you with honesty and integrity. Occupational Background: Deputy Financial Services Manager, City of Corvallis; Information Services Manager; College of Business Oregon State University; Comptroller MS Systems Inc. Educational Background: Oregon State University, BS in Business-accounting Prior Governmental Experience: Yachats City Council; Planning Commission; Budget Committee; Capital Improvement Program Committee; Trails Committee; Urban Renewal Committee; volunteer database project manager for the city of Yachats Reflecting on community issues of the past couple of years and the divergent desires of Yachats constituent groups, it is clear that what is needed is leadership with a sense of balance. In many instances balance means seeking middle ground between the desires of a residential community and the economic needs of local businesses. I am committed to seeking the balance that is in the best interests of the entire village. If I am reelected I am committed to continue focusing on the public process of governance that includes input from all constituent communities. Decisions will be guided by documents like the Yachats comprehensive plan, master plans for utility services (water, sewer, and drainage) and other public documents approved by previous councils. My bias will continue to be to act based on observable and measurable data as much as possible. My personal objectives for the next four years will continue to focus on the Yachats database which will include the property inventory for public works services; an upgrade of the city’s main web site; a new service request system that tracks where city services are needed, how long it takes to complete requests and an assessment of citizen satisfaction. The search area for the city’s document library needs to be updated and simplified and we need to have the ability to store historical images and other records from the Log Church museum. These projects are designed to improve communications, provide data for decision making, and measure the effectiveness of city service delivery. I ask for your vote. Thank you.

Result of “no” vote: “No” vote rejects authorization for state to extend credit and incur debt to create dedicated fund for Oregon students pursuing postsecondary education and career training. Summary: Amends Constitution. Oregon constitution generally prohibits the state from extending credit or incurring debt. Measure requires the legislature to create dedicated fund for exclusive benefit of Oregon students pursuing post-secondary education, including technical, professional and career training. Measure authorizes state to lend credit and incur debt to finance fund. Indebtedness incurred may not exceed one percent of real market value of all property in state. Moneys in fund not subject to constitutional limitations on investment. Generated earnings must be retained by fund, unless used to provide financial assistance to Oregon students pursuing post-secondary education. If governor declares an emergency, legislature may pass a bill to use the fund’s money for any lawful purpose, provided the legislature also has approved a plan to repay the fund. Estimate of financial impact: There is no financial effect on either state or local government expenditures or revenues. Referred to the People by the Legislative Assembly 87 Amends Constitution: Permits employment of state judges by National Guard (military service) and state public universities (teaching) Result of “yes” vote: “Yes” vote amends constitution to permit state judges to be employed by Oregon National Guard for military service purposes, state public universities for teaching purposes. Result of “no” vote: “No” vote retains existing constitutional restrictions on employment of Oregon state court judges by the Oregon National Guard and by the state public university system. Summary: Article III, section 1, of Oregon Constitution (“separation of powers” clause) prohibits person from serving in more than one branch of government at the same time; Oregon Supreme Court has ruled that provision prohibits state court judges from teaching at institutions of public education. Article II, section 10, prohibits state court judges from being compensated for military service in National Guard. Measure amends constitution to authorize any public university as defined by law to employ state court judges for purpose of teaching at Oregon public universities. Measure also authorizes employment of state court judges by Oregon National Guard for purpose of military service. Measure provides that such educational or military employment shall not preclude person from serving as state judge at same time. Other provisions. Estimate of financial impact: There is no financial effect on either state or local government expenditures or revenues.

Result of “no” vote: “No” vote rejects law directing Department of Transportation to issue “driver card” to eligible Oregon resident without requiring proof of legal presence in United States. Summary: Current law requires any applicant for an Oregon driver license or permit to provide proof of legal presence in the United States. Measure directs the Department of Transportation to issue a “driver card” to an applicant who does not provide proof of legal presence in the United States, but who has otherwise complied with all Oregon requirements for the type of driving privileges sought, has provided proof of residence in Oregon for more than one year, and has provided proof of identity and date of birth. The driver card may not be used as identification for air travel, to enter a federal building, to register to vote or to obtain any government benefit requiring proof of citizenship or lawful presence in United States.
