POG Manager Report 7/13-19
+ Meeting
with Blair Smith, Toby Taylor and Paul Daniels to discuss issues related to
boat wash project.
+ Pre-bid
meeting with local contractors on demo project. Started out on just the
buildings; but we decided to add the decking as an alternate deductible. This
is an effort to keep as much of the job here in the county. Made changes to
scope based on pre-bid walk through. Forwarded to state and feds for approval.
Will finalize and get to bidders early next week.
+ Several
meetings with staff managing work time and schedules. Introduced weekly time
schedule that should more easily maintain accrued flex/comp time.
+ Meeting
with Whitey Forsman about temporary displacement during construction. Pacific
Oyster will be the biggest displaced tenant. Port will work with Pac so their
barges can use the cargo dock.
+ Received
complimentary letter from OBDD about Port’s use of strategic business planning,
but our $40k grant request to further a vision plan was rejected. We still have
an open $12,500 grant application out to DLCD and I’m hoping to hear on the
results in the next couple of week. Will work with Commission to pare back
scope.
+ Staff
scheduled work for under wharf survey on July 22-23.
+ Finished
cleaning of apartment and are awaiting the building inspection report.
+ Received
final signatures on boat launch permit for USACE.
+ Gave
tour to Michael Minoski, who was taking pictures of a day in the life of
Oregon. 150 other photographers across the state were working on the same project.
This is actually a recreation of a project done exactly 30 years ago to the
day.
+ Due
to long meeting agenda, prepared amended agenda and posted to media/around town
within 48 hours of meeting.
+ Request
from USCG Station Tillamook Bay to add a link our website. Will add it next
week.
+ Staff
alerted mill, boathouse about clearing stuff off boat wash lot.
+ Submitted
sign permit to city for a sign on the Tillamook Bay side of our office
building. Also submitted a letter to the Planning Commission to define “site
frontage” to include non-rights of way, especially water frontage.
+ Discussion
with City staff to pursue a Conditional Use to convert space by the dredge
spoils site into a maintenance yard. The Port needs to find our maintenance
crew a work yard and future home.
+ Submitted
final engineer report to OBDD for reimbursement request for prelim grant.
Should be receiving one final invoice from HHPR for additional reporting that
could also be submitted. This should complete our prelim grant with the state.
+ Talked
to representatives from the Local Government Personnel Institute (a subsidiary
of the League of Oregon Cities) about reviewing port’s classification plan (job
descriptions), personnel manual and processes to ensure that job descriptions match
actual duties. Job descriptions appear to be decades old. SDAO can review
policies and give samples but they don’t have the staff time to review job
descriptions.
+ Had
someone from the valley offer up their hotrod car to drive dignitaries in the
G-Days parade. Forwarded information to Tourism Commission. We receive lots of
calls about Garibaldi Days and port maintenance staff will be busy that weekend
as well.
+ Conversation
with David Wegner, Sr. Democratic Staff Subcommittee on Water Resources and Environment
about the shoaling issue at the mouth of Tillamook Bay. We talked about USACE
authorization to 18-ft. depth, but the USCG has suggested dredging a “sand
trap”, a 40-ft. hole that would absorb the break energies. Basically, federal
representatives are working on issues related to low use ports and seeing what
can be added to the next round WRDA legislation.
+ Touched
base with interested parties on agenda items for this week’s commission meeting
to make sure they had copies of packet and updated agenda.
+ Quarterly
ports meeting scheduled for July 30 in Salem following the monthly OPPA
meeting. On my schedule to attend.
+ Proofed
and edited new letterhead to match business cards and other stationary.
+ Coordinated
County Managers meeting last week of July.
+ Reviewed
engineering contract with Commission Daniel and shared input with HHPR.
+ Reviewed
OPPA agenda with executive committee.
+ EDA/ConnectOregon

signs about 4 miles out each way into town.
