Gene Halliburton / Chief of Police. Gene’s philosophy for policing Cannon Beach
is “voluntary compliance”. Cars are not towed unless they are creating a safety
hazard. There are 5 summer Parking Information Aides (PIA’s) on bicycles this
summer – aged 18 to 71. Gene likes to have 3 PIA’s on during weekends. They can
write tickets, but are instructed to contact a police officer for other
enforcement. All citizens are encourage to contact Gene if they have something
they think should come to his attention – whether it be illegal parking in a
neighborhood or some<span style='color:black'>thing</span> more. In response to
a question from Gary about truck noi<span style='color:black'>s</span>e in the
North end of t<span style='color:black'>own</span> from truck engine braking on
Highway 101, Gene said the law states that “unmuffled engine braking is
illegal”. If their engine braking is muffled, which it almost always is, they
are legal and there is nothing that can be done short of going to Salem to
lobby the legislature to change the law. Much of the noise is actually not the
engine, but the actual act of the braking on the road. Kathy asked about
marking parkings spaces so as to accommodate more cars. Gene was supporti<span
style='color:black'>ve</span> of this idea. George pointed out that during his
time on the Council, this was discussed and City Planner Rainmar Bartl had
sited studies show<span style='color:black'>ing</span> that fewer cars end up
using the same amount of space when markings are used. This is because marked
space<span style='color:black'>s</span> must allow room for the largest cars.
Many cars are smaller and people will park closer and fit in tighter spots than
would be permitted if marking were used. Michael asked Gene’s opinion about whether
supplying more parking would add to congestion or alleviate it. Gene said he is
being very careful not to take sides. He did say that the spaces marked
“compact” have created some confusion and problems for his staff. As long as a
car is within the lines, they are legal. He tells people “compact” is a
recommendation. George asked if PIA’s could police more time limited parking
space<span style='color:black'>s</span> if <span style='color:black'>more were </span>added.
Gene said he’<span style='color:black'>d</span> certainly be willing to give it
a try. Wendy asked about shoplifting. Gene said it is an ongoing problem. He
has not noticed that it has gotten any worse or better over the years. Upon
request, he will come to a business and give a crime prevention evaluation.
Michael asked about fireworks. Gene said it isn’t possible to stop it complet<span
style='color:black'>ely</span>, but over time more and more people will learn
that they can’t do it in Cannon Beach. He said when he catches someone he asks
them to turn over all the illegal stuff and if he is happy with their
compliance, he does not ticket them. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

cherries. 400 people filled out a survey. Results are not out yet. Market is

Nala: HRAP (Haystack Rock Awareness Program) will have a potluck followed by a
program and video debut Thursday July 22<sup>nd</sup> 6pm at the Chamber’s
Community Hall. Nala reported that it has been busy at the Rock. She talked
about the puffins and how George’s son Kyler is working with her and HRAP for
his Senior project. Gary spoke up for the black oyster catchters, birds not
quite as popular as the puffins, but whose number are also diminishing and who
nest on the rocks off our coast. Upon George’s urging, Nala gave her oyster
catcher imitation much to the pleasure of all. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

Michael Burkett / CB Citizen – Show and Tell. “How to write a press release
that will actually get published”. The media is always looking for news and
interesting stories. Look at your business and employees for interesting
stories. Before beginning to write a news release, go to the publication(s)
that you plan to submit to and look for examples of what they print. Follow the
formatting rules, abbreviation, punctuation, etc found there. Write your
release as a reporter would write it. Do not use I, we, our, etc. Avoid
exclamation points. The less work you leave for the editor the more likely your
release will be published. Submit your release by e-mail. Include your release
in the body of the e-mail message, even if it is attached as a pdf or doc.
When submitting, only submit to the media in your area. Follow up with a
phone call to verify that the release was received and ask if there are any
questions. Every release should include contact information. The Headline and
first paragraph must be alluring. Include a photograph, but make sure it is a
good one. Carol from the Gazette added her suggestion that least important info
be at the end of the release so that if necessary it can be omitted. Michael
described the “Dolly Parton Rule”. As Dolly learned and said on stage in Vegas
after a wardrobe mishap, and as relates to fitting everything into a
publication, “You can’t fit 10 lbs of mud into a 5 lbs sack”.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

The Great Cannon Beach Puffin Watch, Parade, Concert, Circus Play, Dance Hour
and Fire Dancers on the 4<sup>th</sup> all came off very well. Because of rain after
the Parade, the Concert had only about 100 attendees. Jeff estimated 100
participated in the dance which was a good number. The Parade was very well
attended with people lining both sides of Spruce and Hemlock Streets. (See
photos at <a href="http://www.cannon-beach.net/">www.cannon-beach.net</a>) In
spite of drizzle just prior to the Fire Dancing, a crowd of 490 people were
counted there. (see photos at <a href="http://www.cannon-beach.net/">www.cannon-beach.net</a>)
George said that he had not seen that many people in the park in many years.

In spite of the large numbers of people in town for the 3-day weekend and No
Vacancy signs up and down Hemlock, retail sales were not good. The hope that
summer might change the mood of shoppers is dwindling fast among retailers.

Yesterday’s warm, sunny day brought a steady flow of people to the Farmer’s
Market – 1400 in all. Vendors have reported mixed success. Some are doing well,
others not. Next week a survey will be conducted at the market. Market is every
Tuesday 2-6pm thru Sept 28<sup>th</sup>. Locals are encouraged to take
advantage of the 5-6pm hour. The selection is still good as vendors bring
enough to last. Volunteers are appreciated. <a

Wendy: At last night’s Council Meeting, the Council selected, by concealed
vote, 5 people to serve on the Tourism and Arts Commission. Those chosen are
Tom Drumheller, Valerie Ryan, Linda Beck-Sweeney, Robin Risley and John
Grosshuesch. The six who were not chosen are Bob Necker, Kristine Gottsch,
Stephanie Ansley, Jim McDonald, Stephen Malkowski and George Vetter. As per
Wendy, because of conflict of interest, some applicants were not chosen.

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>8. George:
At last night Council Meeting, the Council considered two options for
increasing downtown parking at the East end of Second Street. This would be in
conjunction the construction of the Trail. Option 1 is for adding 30 spaces and
does not involve any fill. Option 2 adds 57 parking spaces and involves some
fill in the now retired (man-made) sewer pond. Option 2 would be better as far
as the Trial is concerned. At the public hearing, 5 people spoke against adding
any parking/paving/fill citing congestion and environmental concerns. George
spoke up in favor of replacing some of the 100 spaces lost (as per City Planner
Rainmar Bartl) in the past 15 years or so. Adding more parking will not add to
congestion but rather alleviate it. People don’t come to Cannon Beach because
we have parking, they come because of Haystack Rock, the ocean, the beauty and
an attractive town that welcomes them. Jeff says visitors #1 complaint is the
lack of parking. Councilor Sam Steidel reminded everyone that the sewer lagoons
are just that – sewer lagoons. They are not natural and are less than
environmentally friendly. He suggested creating parking that could be used for
something else when not needed for cars – a sport field or the like. The
Council tabled the issue. It will be taken up in a worksession. Send your
opinion to <a href="mailto:council@cbor.us">council@cbor.us</a>. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

George: Cars parked on Hemlock during the Parade on the 4<sup>th</sup> diminish
the ability of people to enjoy the Parade. Can we get cars off Hemlock in
Downtown for 2011?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
