Highlight's of Wednesday's meeting of the Clatsop County Commisssioners

In yesterday’s meeting of the Clatsop County Commissioners, the board voted unanimously to accept a purchase offer for the Carlyle Apartments complex in Seaside.
Seaside attorney Donn Bauske will pay $825,000 in a lease/purchase agreement. The 25-unit facility will remain in operation as rental housing following the transfer.
The property came into the county’s ownership following a legal dispute over a reversionary clause in the property deed.

The board also voted to approve the legalization of Simonsen Road in Svensen.
County Engineer Ron Ash told the board that a handful of affected landowners had raised questions or concerns about the project, and that the Road Division hosted a community meeting December 1st in Knappa to address their issues. Three owners requested compensation for the portions of their land covered by the new right-of-way, but Ash said they are not entitled to compensation because no structures are impacted.
No one offered testimony at yesterday’s (Wednesday’s) hearing.

The board approved a grant from the Oregon Emergency Management Office to fund the Clatsop County Emergency Management Division. The grant, for up to $182,000 for the 2010-11 federal fiscal year, is pass-through funding from the Federal Emergency Management Administration, and provides half the annual funding for the county’s emergency preparedness programs.
