People of Tillamook County Send Demand Petition Calling for Tillamook County District Attorney’s Resignation; Requests Governor, Attorney General Launch Investigation to Determine Criminality of Tillamook County District Attorney’s Actions

The “People of Tillamook County” sent a demand petition to the Governor’s office and state Attorney General’s office the end of October asking for an independent criminal investigation of Tillamook County District Attorney Aubrey Olson, when Olson failed to resign. The group sent a demand to the DA asking her to resign within 72 hours of receipt of the document. The nearly 450 page demand petition outlines multiple examples of Olson’s unethical and in some cases criminal mis-handling of cases in Tillamook County. In addition, following the county’s investigation the DA filed a lawsuit against the county and threatened the Sheriff’s office whistleblower. Recently upon receipt of the People’s petition, she attempted to block the Board of Commissioners from taking action, again threatening injunctions and legal action.

Last month, the Oregon Journalism Project reported that although the word “potluck” doesn’t appear in state law, the Oregon Health Authority has determined that potlucks open to the public are “single-event temporary restaurants” and are therefore forbidden from serving food cooked in home kitchens.

Coastal Miles and Team Smiles: Taking on the Three Capes Relay from Cape Meares to Pacific City

The Three Capes Relay is a one-day, 26.2-mile adventure that you can tackle solo or with a team of 2 or 5. Starting in Tillamook and winding south along the Oregon Coast before finishing in Pacific City, it’s a fundraiser that directly supports Tillamook High School athletics. It’s also one of those true bucket-list races, in our opinion. Before diving deeper, we wanted to call out a few key details right up front.

Editorial: Astoria rejected a housing tax. Now build solutions.

Feelings about Astoria’s housing predicament were laid bare by the campaign for Measure 4-247 and the reaction against it. Measure proponents approached the issue with admirable conviction. Despite Oregonians’ deep aversion to new taxes, nearly four out of 10 Astoria voters supported a levy on owners of homes occupied less than half the year, with exceptions for certain circumstances. That says something about how urgently many residents want action.
