will be built city council agreed to buy the 7.88-acre site for a price of $560,000 plus costs for the first two phases of an environmental study completed at the direction of the owner That initial study found low levels of pollution at the site but nothing was unexpected or would prevent building housing on the site “This allows us to proceed with the workforce housing project and continue to reach out and work with local businesses and community partners to start raising seed money and planning the community,” Mayor Michelle Sumner said “This is an exciting project for Sutherlin and Douglas County as housing for many of businesses front line employees are non-existent.” The workforce housing development — currently known as Oak Street Commons — will be a mix of cottages multiplexes and single-family homes of various sizes The “small village” is slated for property bordered by West Sixth Avenue one four-plex and 36 single-family homes of various sizes the exact mix of structure types is subject to change due to engineering requirements or demand livability services director for Sutherlin are very serious about seeing this project through to fruition,” Lynch said

working citizens.” The city was awarded a $2.85 million state grant from Business Oregon to help pay for infrastructure including water and sewer lines That infrastructure is estimated to cost about $4.4 million Sutherlin is also seeking a $5.5 million grant from the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development to help pay for the remaining infrastructure cost plus another $4 million to complete phase one of the project That includes the construction of six cottages The cost for the entire project is estimated to be about $30 million The city said it will waive system development charges City officials have also said they want to form a nonprofit organization to help govern the development which can open up a number of potential funding sources Sutherlin is facing a severe shortage of affordable housing That shortage made it difficult to attract workers to the city city officials and local business leaders said Sutherlin officials have been meeting with local businesses social services and educational agencies to work toward solutions Those attending the meetings included Housing Authority of Douglas County Evergreen Family Medicine and school district officials

of several projects Sutherlin is currently pursuing or planning Plans are currently in the works to retrofit and renovate the old city hall as well as the fire station Those plans also call for the

— The Twin Lakes Association is taking an earlier and more aggressive approach to fighting the spread of invasive hydrilla in East Twin Lake by dosing the whole northeast bay with low-level herbicide treatments instead of spot treatments the TLA’s vice president of lake management is to sustain herbicide concentration over the 2025 growing season That plan of attack will continue over a period of 60 to 90 days beginning May 21 Conklin explained during the association’s April 30 membership meeting via Zoom which drew 60 attendees TLA officials were encouraged by the chance to stop the spread and hopefully destroy the thick mats of the unyielding invasive plant hydrilla verticillata referred to as the Connecticut River variant after two years of chasing new growth around the lake’s north bay Dense patches were first discovered in the summer of 2023 in shallow waters around O’Hara’s Landing Marina and the nearby state boat launch and the plant has since migrated further into East Twin Past treatment efforts were hampered by delayed permits from the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection to treat the hydrilla with herbicides in an area where a rare plant had been identified as any protected plant species in the path of hydrilla would likely not survive anyway but it is going to be if we don’t do something about the hydrilla.” so we spot treated it … and were always chasing it.” is to treat the entire northeast bay with the herbicide Sonar in both liquid and crystal form at a very low levels so that the herbicide’s contact time with hydrilla will be extended for a longer period over 60 to 90 days “We know from past experience that it is much easier to kill the plant when it’s small,” Conklin explained green weed before August when it crowns and splits into numerous growing points that are capable of growing at the rate of an inch a day discussion also focused on a pilot program for enhanced cyanobacteria monitoring at Twin Lakes to be headed by TLA director Jessica Swartz a resident of West Twin Lake and biotech executive with Pfizer “It’s very visibly challenging to identify cyanobacteria blooms,” Swartz explained as it can easily be confused with pollen on the surface of the water dead vegetation or different types of algae important phytoplankton in lake ecosystems occur when there is an abundance of sunlight elevated phosphorus levels and warm temperatures Given the current escalation in overly-nutrient rich waterbodies and rising temperatures due to global climate change the frequency of cyanobacteria blooms is increasing and Twin Lakes has occasionally experienced localized blooms the association will be implementing a pilot testing program with greater frequency and at more locations than currently conducted by the TLA’s limnologist The goal of the pilot program is to work out the process of collecting reliable data over time that helps inform whether cyanobacteria blooms are occurring Sample test kits have been ordered for five or six testing sites across East and West Twin TLA president Gant Bogle invited Swartz to give an update at the association’s upcoming June 14 membership meeting at Camp Isola Bella Despite rising lake management costs projected at $500,000 this year Bogle reported that the TLA is in strong shape financially heading into the 2025 season as it received another $75,000 grant from DEEP and $25,000 from the Bates Foundation to support the Watershed Study the town of Salisbury has earmarked $75,000 for Twin Lakes this season and the TLA membership has “responded generously” contributing more than $300,000 since August 2024 when the group started its 2025 fundraising campaign Bogle also encouraged members to attend the May 12 public meeting of the Salisbury Inland Wetlands & Watercourses Commission which is expected to address proposed changes to the Upland Review Area encompassing the town’s lakes Download directly Belden House & Mews is an elegant gem of a

Litchfield with their young family When asked to explain the philosophy behind this project “Reviving this once derelict estate with its gracious subtly ornate and expansive physical attributes established a narrative conducive to the approach to hospitality we first established at Troutbeck.” Champalimaud continued one which spans early American and modernist architecture as the bridging property between the estates of historic North Street and the town green dovetails with our bias to invite guests into a residential-feeling environment More of an invitation to come and live with us

evident behind every detail of the Belden House & Mews interior designer of such luxe hotels as Raffles in Singapore and a member of the Interior Design Hall of Fame “We embraced the locale throughout our design collaborating with local makers and craftsmen to create a color journey full of warmth and curiosity We highlighted the contrast between Belden House’s traditional spirit and the modernism of the 1950’s-era Mews building where furniture silhouettes inspired by midcentury art and architecture bring splashes of color to tonal room envelopes The project is a journey in which guests feel

it will not be dull,” said one of the organizers ArtEast has expanded beyond its signature October event to include this springtime tour focused on process over polish “The May tour gives voice to practitioners of artforms that are inherently messy,” said Madden a Poughquag-based stone artist and longtime ArtEast participant “I love having people visit my studio and ask questions ‘How?’ is a common question because the material — stone — is difficult for some to imagine how to work it,but that’s a question for a technician ‘Why?’ is the question I always hope for because it’s asking the artist if the viewer is clearly understanding the message I created.” Madden will be opening Rock and A Soft Place Studios in Poughquag alongside his wife a fiber and metal artist who co-chairs the

postseason berth in Special District 4 Sutherlin rallied past Coquille 14-12 and defeated South Umpqua 28-14 losing to eventual state runner-up Banks 35-6 in the quarterfinals “They’re a different team and we’re a different team this year,” Bulldogs coach Bret Prock said “They’re a good football team and it’s amazing how much better of a team we are whipped the Bulldogs 41-7 in Merlin during the regular season last year Sutherlin’s returning players haven’t forgotten but they’re not the same team that beat us 41-7,” Prock said I think the kids are having a great week of practice They’re super confident and not ready to be done playing football This group is locked in and trying to get the most out of it.” The contest could come down to which defense can stop the other’s running attack Sutherlin averages 32.3 points a game and North Valley 31 which I think is a good matchup for us,” Prock said “Coquille and North Valley run the same offense and I think we did a pretty good job of stopping what Coquille did We need to keep them behind the sticks and force them to throw.” Prock calls senior lineman/linebacker Ryan Gaskin the key player for the Knights He’s impressed with running backs John Erkeneff and Hayden Taylor North Valley has a new quarterback this season in senior Eric Miller “We have to make sure we know where he’s at on offense because they run a lot of things through him.” North Valley held Klamath Union to 62 yards total offense in last week’s 42-0 win in Klamath Falls The Bulldogs hope to “pound the rock” with their assortment of runners led by junior Tucker Mack (1,035 yards rushing) senior quarterback Tauj Flora (793 yards) and senior Kaleb Filipi (456 yards) They’ve combined for 32 touchdowns on the ground Flora has passed for 470 yards this season we need to make the most of our drives,” Prock said “Possessions could be hard to come by and we have to make sure we take care of the football when we have it We have some things planned

best night They had some big holes and we couldn’t fill the gaps.” “They were just better than us,” Sutherlin lineman Rylan Bryant added North Valley had 80 and 85-yard scoring drives on its opening two possessions and took a 14-0 halftime lead Sutherlin marched into the red zone on both of its possessions in the first half The Bulldogs drove to the North Valley 14 in the first quarter but the Knights’ Max Freedman intercepted a Tauj Flora pass at the goal line with nine seconds left in the second “They did a great job (running their offense),” Sutherlin coach Bret Prock said “They beat us off the football and beat us to the football Our team has done a great job of scoring points this year (averaging 32.3 points a game) You wish you could’ve put those points on the board in the first half and made it a different game.” Eric Miller set up North Valley’s third TD in the third period by picking off a Tauj Flora pass and returning it to the Sutherlin 29 A bad snap on a punt by the

SUTHERLIN — The Sutherlin boys basketball team battled to the end with South Umpqua taking a 47-40 win in a Far West League matchup at the Dog Pound to hold the team to 40 points is always our goal and then we had some pretty big shots down the end to help extend it out," Sutherlin coach Nic Freeman said The Bulldogs are 10-6 overall and 2-0 in the FWL Each Sutherlin player on the court contributed to the win which Freeman said helped them be successful he told the team that they needed to play defense and needed to break their cycle of losing two games in a row That's probably one of the most physical games we've had all year," South Umpqua coach Erik Johnson said "But the way the kids kept their composure and played through the contact and played through whatever pain they were feeling I can't knock the effort they put out tonight." Johnson added the Lancers have been working on finishing their games well and staying in it until the end The coach saw his team's performance as a big step forward Jayden Kaae led South Umpqua with a double-double Trace Esterbrook scored eight points and Michael Fischer had seven before running into foul trouble and we can play way better defense than we did," Sutherlin's Coltyn Jacobs said "We just didn't really bring it tonight like we usually do." The senior guard said he felt he personally played well recently but could have ran more offense and contributed to the ball Jacobs ended the game with a team-high 15 points and added six rebounds and two steals and they can run their offense pretty well," Jacobs said of South Umpqua Hunter Van Buren grabbed 10 rebounds and Xavier Cafferata pulled down nine for the Bulldogs "I don't think we played to our full potential We definitely have new things to work on," Lepre said "A win is a win no matter how much we win by Lepre wasn't happy with the Bulldogs' turnovers but said other than that they played pretty well The Bulldogs are scheduled to host Douglas and South Umpqua hosts Siuslaw Tuesday in Far West games Please disable your ad blocker, whitelist our site, or purchase a subscription Sutherlin Police Officer Jonathan Rausch (Photo courtesy Sutherlin Police Department) — The Sutherlin Police Department has named Officer Jonathan Rausch its 2024 Police Officer of the Year Each year the Roseburg Optimist Club holds the “Respect for Law Banquet.” For this event the Sutherlin Police Department holds nominations within its department for the “Officer of the Year.” Officer Jonathan Rausch was selected by his peers to receive this honor and recognition Officer Rausch was nominated by his peers "for his unwavering positive attitude and his willingness to take on difficult and challenging assignments," the department said "He remains calm and professional under pressure and demonstrates a strong passion for training Officer Rausch responded to 1,064 calls for service conducted 114 traffic stops and maintained a 92% case clearance rate Officer Rausch exhibited outstanding leadership and embodied the values of modern public safety and policing," the PD said in a media release "He is a true example of professionalism and dedication in 21st-century law enforcement." — The 2024 Sutherlin Timber Town Toy Land Electric Light Parade lit up the sky in Sutherlin on Saturday "Had a wonderful time riding in the parade last night," write Sutherlin Mayor Michelle Sumner the following day on social media "Thank you to the Sutherlin Fire Department for allowing me to sit shotgun in our brand new engine The mayor continued: "What a delight seeing so many people braving the weather to come out year after year to support all the participants thank you to the Sutherlin Police Department for warming me up at the end with a nice cup of hot chocolate COQUILLE — Eight Sutherlin wrestlers earned berths for the Class 3A state championships in the Special District 3 tournament on Saturday at Coquille High School scoring a 16-4 major decision over Logan Garza of South Umpqua The Bulldogs got runner-up finishes from Dane Strunk at 120 Placing third were Christian Lee (113) and Beau Olsen (190) Winning championships for Douglas were Peyton Wafer (120) and Ryder Sawyer (175) Other first-place finishers included Connor Devoogd (126) and Caden Cox (132) of Glide Also qualifying for state were South Umpqua's Isaiah Stanturf (second Pleasant Hill won the team crown with 250 points followed by Coquille in second (212) and Sutherlin in third (209.5) The 3A state meet will be held Thursday and Friday at Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Portland Please disable your ad blocker, whitelist our site, or purchase a subscription Share on FacebookShare on X (formerly Twitter)Share on PinterestShare on LinkedInLAWTON, Okla.
