    FAQ on Barking dogs and other Animal Complaints on private property.

    Question: Who do I report barking dogs, loud chickens, and other Public Nuisances on private property. Answer: All Public Nuisances, regarding animal issues located on private property, must be reported to Keaton Walde, the Animal Control Officer for the Clatsop County Animal Control Services. His contact information is 503-298-9881 (Mobile) and 503-861-7387 (Office). His e-mail is kwalde@co.clatsop.or.us.

    Latest information on The Dunes new home development south of Reed Hertig on HWY 101.

    Over the last few months many have wondered what is going on with the new housing development just south of Reed Hertig called The Dunes. Formerly the old Bill Reed farm, this property was platted out in 2016 and as a result a modification was made to HWY 101 to add an exit lane south bound and enter lane to accommodate 87 new homes. We contacted Gail Henrikson Community Development Director Clatsop County and this was her reply. Also she attached 4 documents that show the county information on this three phase development that should clarify what is actually going in and where. On Jun 3, 2022, at 10:52 AM, Gail Henrikson…
