At the City Council’s April 14th
meeting the council voted to award
the contract for the “New Water
Treatment Facility” project to Cascade Water Works Inc.
Cascade Water Works has constructed multiple projects designed
by 4B Engineering since 2006 and has a good background of
completing projects.
The council also voted to have additional filters installed during
the time the project is going on by “Everfilt.” Sometime in the
future additional filters will have to be installed as the need for
more water is required. By doing this the city will save money,
and not have to go through the bidding process again. This
project is intended to increase water quality so we’re looking
forward to the completion of the project.
The City Council also voted to put a moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries within the city of
Aumsville. The State Legislature allowed cities who choose to, to be able to prevent these dispensaries
within their city limits for one year. Next year what the legislature will do is up in the air; but should they
vote to not allow cities a choice, we will have a year to put together an Ordinance to regulate them.
We want to welcome Josh Hoyer to our city as our city Finance Officer. Our best wishes in his new
position. On May 11th we celebrate one of the most special days of the year “Mothers Day.” She is
remembered as “the guardian of the family, the Queen, the tender hand of love. She is the best friend
you will ever have. A mother is love.
Memories of a Mother
As long ago, we carried to your knees
The tales and treasure of eventful days,
Knowing no deed too humble for your praise
Nor any gift too trivial to please.
So still we bring with older smiles and tears
What gifts we may to claim the old, dear right;
Your faith beyond the silence and the night;
Your love still close and watching through the years.
Author Unknown
Our prayers for a happy Mothers Day to all mothers and their
families.
May God Bless,

Legislative Update
Dear Friends,
STATE
REPRESENTATIVE
Kevin Cameron
House Dist. 19
503-986-1419
Thank you for those who were able to make it to our last
breakfast at Neufeldt’s. We had a good discussion on jobs and
workforce development in our community. There are some great things
happening, but we have more to do removing obstacles and government overregulation to allow local businesses to grow and get more people back to work.
HB 4047 which was my DMV customer service task force bill that was passed during the short session
was signed by the Governor and is in the process of implementation. I met recently with an individual
from the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) who will be providing administrative support to
this task force. Currently, the task force is being put together and will be made up of customers of the
DMV, a member from the trucking industry and car sales industry who will provide a business
perspective, a couple of state legislators, a member of local government, a DMV administrator and DMV
classified staff. They will meet on a regular basis and will make recommendations to the legislative
body in 2015. While this was not my ideal solution to addressing some of the problems we have serving
customers at DMV retail establishments, it does keep the conversation going. Hopefully this task force
can recommend some solid, common sense solutions that benefit both the agency and the customer.
Government efficiency is important.
Remember my office continues to work on individual needs for those I represent. If you are having a
problem with a government agency and need some assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us at
503-986-1419 or [email protected]. We are here to help.
Sincerely,
A Prayer for
Mothers

New Aumsville
Budget Committee
Member was a hero before moving to
Aumsville and he continues to serve others by
volunteering in his new community!
Meet Simon Garcia, our newest Budget Committee member. Simon
was born and raised in Oregon and graduated from South Salem High
School. He was in high school on September 11, 2001 when the World
Trade Center was attacked. Soon after, he joined the Army. In 2003
Simon and his best friend (who just happened to be the brother of the
gal he was dating) volunteered to go to Iraq.
During Simon’s deployment his unit was attacked many times – a few soldiers were killed and hurt.
On May 6, 2004 (10 years ago this month) Simon was on a convoy mission, (machine gunner), riding
on top of a humvee when he heard a loud ringing noise and then an explosion from an I.E.D. The
bomb sent shrapnel toward the convoy hitting Simon. Because he was outside, on top of the
humvee, he was the one most injured. Simon’s jaw was fractured and broken by a piece of shrapnel
that traveled through his face breaking his left eye socket, damaging his left eye, and stopping in his
head. Simon also received shrapnel injuries to his right leg and left arm. His body armor saved his
life. Medical personnel told him he was not meant to die that day – the shrapnel pieces only missed
his vital areas by one centimeter. Simon’s best friend was in a vehicle behind him and saw Simon go
down. The injured soldiers returned to safety where Simon was pulled from the damaged hummer
by many soldiers, including his best friend. They were all covered with Simon’s blood that day.
After surgeries and returning to the States, Simon married his best friend’s sister (Alicia) in August
2004. He was interviewed for the Statesman Journal in June 2004 and he talked about how he
would like to return to Iraq to help the children. Their living conditions broke his heart. He has
always cared about his fellow man. Unfortunately, his return to Iraq was not meant to happen. He
still loves children; he and Alicia have three children, with another one on the way. He also still
believes in serving others.
Simon’s left eye was removed and a prosthetic eye put in. He said that many have told him that his
fake eye does not move like a real eye and because of this, he wears sunglasses much of the time
and is a bit self-conscious.
Simon was awarded the Purple Heart and Army Good Conduct Medal. He had always wanted to be a
police officer and has an Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice from Chemeketa, but the missing eye
has limited his ability to get a job. He has worked for several security companies, but has been
unable to get a job in Corrections, Homeland Security or as a police officer. He has been told that he
does not meet the medical requirements because he only has one eye. He still hopes that there will
be a day that he can achieve his dream.
We are excited to have Simon join the budget committee; especially this month of Memorial Day
when we remember those who have paid a price for our freedom. Welcome Simon – we are proud
to claim you as an Aumsvillian and celebrate your heroism!

of managing your digital world.

Aumsville Community Theater Presents
THE FOREIGNER
The play begins at a fishing lodge in Georgia, which is
being visited by “Froggy” Le Seuer, a British demolition
expert who conducts training sessions on a nearby Army
base. Shy Charlie, “Froggy’s” friend finds out that
“Froggy” is leaving, and is very scared of having to make
conversation with people he doesn’t know. “Froggy”
informs the local people that Charlie is from an exotic
foreign country and doesn’t speak English. The locals
think Charlie can’t understand English, and are therefore,
free with their conversations around him. Because of this
scenario Charlie overhears many secrets, and this fuels
the comedy. “I laughed start to finish at one comic
surprise after another. “ The New Yorker
Performance dates: May 23, 24, 30, 31, June 1, 6, 7, 8
at the Macleay Grange. Friday and Saturday
performances are at 7:00 and Sunday performances are
at 2:30, with two performances on May 24 @ 2:30 and

Aumsville Historical Society met on April 10th in
the community center. President Ted Shepard
presided. Reports were given and discussed. The
guest speaker was retired civil engineer Ed Austin
of rural Turner. When Ed was a young boy, his
uncle worked for the Southern Pacific in Salem.
This afforded him a close up view of railroads and
he developed a lifetime fascination with trains.
His seventh book IMAGES OF RAIL – THE
OREGONIAN RAILWAY is now available online and
in stores. Several of his books, including the
large pictorial THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC IN
OREGON, were co-authored with Tom Dill.
In order to grow and prosper, Oregon needed
railroads to transport people and material. The
first railroad activity began about 1856 in the
Willamette Valley. About 1880 the Oregon
Railway Company built a road from Portland
through Aumsville to Coburg. In 1890, the
Southern Pacific bought the line and Aumsville’s
depot was the local center of activity. Times
have changed. Although railroads are still vital in
many places, the depot in Aumsville is gone and
the tracks through our community are now
untraveled.
AHS member Betty Shepard has passed away. She
came to Oregon with her parents when she was
young. Many years later, after her husband’s
retirement from the US Navy, she moved back to
Aumsville. Condolences to her son Ted and the
other members of the family.
The museum reopened on Apr. 5th and will be
open on Saturdays from 11 am until 2 pm through
the summer. There will be no May meeting due
to conflicts with other events and personal
obligations. The next meeting will be held on
June 12th. For further information, please
contact Ted Shepard (503) 749-2744 or Karlene
Santibanez (503) 749-2585.

A Recipe for a Very Dear Mother:
CORN FESTIVAL NEWS ~
46th
The
Annual Aumsville Corn
Festival is coming to town on the 23rd
of August and to kick it off, we need
all citizens of Aumsville to give the City and
the Corn Festival a “THEME”. Let’s look at
past winners:
1969 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 1983 1984 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 -
Take a cup of thoughtfulness
And add a lot of love,
Blend with smiles as warming
As the sunshine from above,
Add a cheerful spirit
And, of course, a heart that sings
And also the ability
To laugh at little things,
Stir in lots of tenderness
And understanding, too
And there you have the recipe
For mothers dear as you.

Aumsville City Council
Meeting Highlights
ACC REGULAR MEETING
MARCH 10, 2014
Mayor White called the meeting
to order in the community
center. All Council were
present except Councilor Robert
Baugh, Jr. City Administrator
Maryann Hills was also present.
INTRODUCTIONS: State Rep.
Kevin Cameron attended the
council meeting, noting that he
is not running for re-election,
but rather for Marion County
Commissioner. He introduced
Jodi Hack as a candidate for his
open legislator seat. Ms. Hack
then gave a brief biography of
her life.
VISITORS:
Patty Massingale, Aumsville
Community Garden Manager
informed council that she wrote
a grant application on the
community garden’s behalf
using the city’s tax
identification number, after
being encouraged to do so by a
staff member. She is at council
to seek the council’s
permission/forgiveness for doing
so before talking to council for
city approval. Councilor Casarez
asked if a letter of support from
the city is needed, and she
informed it is not the
application is already in process.
Council consensus was to
approve the grant in the city’s
name.
Ms. Massingale questioned the
status of the request for
chickens in Aumsville and it was
discussed. Councilor Ferguson
stated that she did not think
that there is enough input now
for council to make a decision,
given that there were only 75
survey responses. Ms.
Massingale asked council how
much more information they
need to gather – would a
petition of support help, and
what is it going to take for
council to make a decision in
support of chickens? There was
further discussion of health issue
concerns and enforcement
issues. Police department
enforcement was discussed.
Steve Sugg, Aumsville, said that
he supports chickens in
Aumsville. They have them in
Portland, why not in Aumsville.
David Medlock, Aumsville, would
like to have chickens and fresh
eggs to go with their garden.
Councilor Casarez said that he
doesn’t think that the public has
a lot of information about the
pros and cons of chickens. He
suggested a council Visioning
meeting or a work session with
information (from the local OSU
extension office) to share with
the public, and how other
municipalities are handling the
issue. He suggested that council
not be hasty and get as much
info as they can and educate the
public, so they are correctly
representing the wishes of
Aumsville residents. Ms.
Massingale said that she would
love to help provide speakers for
a work session if they want to
educate the public. Council
discussed getting the
information out in the
newsletter of a June work
session on chickens.
Kameron Blomquist, SightLine
Wireless, appeared to discuss
with council a Communications
Tower Site Lease request; to
support a small business he is
starting to provide internet
service. Councilor Naylor asked
how this will affect the Meritel
Page 30
Communications Tower Site
Lease, and discussion of the
impact followed. Mr. Sugg
spoke up on behalf of Meritel,
stating that he was there to ask
to be released from his lease
with the city for Meritel
equipment on the tower site. If
that was agreed to, this
equipment from SightLine would
take the place of the Meritel
equipment, and it was
considered. City Attorney
McGehee gave an overview of
the agreement he prepared for
the city dealing with the
termination of the Meritel lease.
Council made a motion to enter
into an agreement with
SightLine LLC, as drafted by
Administrator Hills and Attorney
McGehee, to be effective for
four years. The motion passed
unanimously.
Steven Sugg of Meritel discussed
with council the termination of
Meritel’s lease and Mr. Sugg
asked that the termination
become effective on the date of
city administrator’s signature on
the SightLine LLC agreement.
Council moved to accept the
termination of Meritel’s lease
and Mr. Sugg asked that the
termination become effective
on the date of city
administrator’s signature on the
agreement. The motion passed
unanimously.
Council discussed the planning
commission’s (APC)
recommenda-tion with regard to
enforcement of the sign at Hot
Shots. Sharon Boice, owner of
Hot Shots, asked what had been
decided about her mural.
Council shared that the Planning
Commission is in the process of
reviewing the Development
May, 2014
Ordinance, but they supported
enforcement of the sign
violation. Ms. Boice said that
there are other businesses with
sign violations. City Attorney
McGehee said that some of
those violations are pre-existing
the ordinance regulations.
Council discussed with Ms. Boice
the continued non-compliance,
the moratorium they gave her
for business sign compliance,
and how nothing has changed at
this time. Administrator Hills
said she is looking for direction
as to how strict or concrete she
needs to be on sign regulations
enforcement at this time. City
Attorney McGehee suggested
that there be a motion to put a
moratorium into place that
allows enforcement of future
commercial business sign
requirements, but does nothing
with current non-conforming
signs; until such time as the city
council adopts new sign
regulations. Council moved to
put a moratorium on current
commercial sign enforcement,
until such time as the Planning
Commission and City Council
decide on changes to the sign
policy. The motion passed
unanimously.
