I have updated my printer, so this one is available to pick up in Manzanita. I have some ink cartridges, but others will need to be ordered. It has been a good printer, however not the friendliest for people with limited knowledge on the technical aspects of its capabilities and maintenance needs. Email address above if interested.

Free Couch and full-size box bring and mattress

Submitted By: msshoebox@mac.com – Click to email about this post
We are downsizing, and have a large Pottery Barn sectional that needs a new home. It’s 9’6″ x 9’6″ x 3’6″; seats air 16″ from the floor. It comes in 2 pieces.

This couch is big and comfy, and deep. It seats 5-6 and can sleep 2 adults on the seats comfortably. It has extra cushioning in the back pillows, and comes with 1 unused seat cover. We kept the seats covered, so they are in pretty good condition.

I also have a clean, not smelly, no stains full size mattress and box spring. No frame any more, unfortunately. I may still have mattress pads for it – also free. It’s fairly firm. Bounce on it, then you decide. Let me know if you need pictures.

Come take a look. You haul. Golden retriever not included.

golf cart

1996 Yamaha G14e golf cart

This is a project. The motor is dead.

Batteries still going strong, but 9 or 10 years old now.

You will need a trailer or some way to take it.

I’ve done lots of work on it over the years but don’t want to tackle it anymore.

$1, that’s right, One Dollar and a way to haul it off takes it.

Helping hand wanted with new website advancement

Submitted By: jwmerc@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hi there – my new website is patiently waiting in the wings while I get products submitted for upload – their pictures etc. This is not my strong suit (getting into the right place – seamlessly add items) – and I need basically a “refresher course” (the original developer has left the country).
The artwork & mechanics are done – nothing needs be “built” – I just need to be coached in how to get behind the scene and get products loaded + get the credit card vendor implemented – so I can light it up. I will be using Big commerce – so if you are familiar with them it would be a plus.
Surely there is more specific language that could be used here – but again – computer programming is not my superpower..
Ideally 1-2 hours of time is what I might expect – and yes – I am prepared to pay for your time.

A Weekly Local News Program

Submitted By: nehalembayexperience@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The Tillamook County Pioneer has offered us all a great opportunity – a local, video based news program. Hi bbq land, my name is Drew Reid and I will be producing this endeavor. The link below is to the first edition and it is as bare bones as I could make it at just over 2.5 minutes.
This production should reflect what is important to you so I’m asking you to be co-creators. News comes in many forms and seldom is the head-line type. High school sports? Synopsis of city council meetings? Non-profit org events? Local business profiles?
Imagine an old time, small town radio news show…only in high def and on your phone or computer. Please drop me an email with your suggestions and insights. We all deserve a solid, regular, local news program and this is it’s humble beginning. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you, Drew. nehalembayexperience@gmail.com

Telescope Needed this Sat for Planet line up

Submitted By: revolutionginger@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
Hello BBQ land!

Do you own a cool telescope that will help us see the planets that are visible this Saturday?

There will be a community labyrinth and sauna happening this Saturday at sunset near the Y junction on Manzanita beach.

If you’re willing to bring down a telescope to help others check out the fainter planets that would be really cool!

Thank you!
Ginger

Manzanita Minute January 2025

Submitted By: mkuestner10@gmail.com – Click to email about this post
The City of Manzanita posted this Manzanita Minute for January 2025 on their website recently. In case anyone missed it, here’s a copy

January 2025
We want to wish all residents, community members, and readers a happy and great start to the new year! We also want to thank all of you who participate in and serve the City in any and all capacities, both formally and informally. Formally, our Planning Commission Chair and Vice Chair were re-elected; we had re-appointments to Planning Commission; and are currently in a selection process for our Budget Committee, appointments to occur at our Regular Session in February. We also had one new appointment to Planning Commission, Brad Berman. He introduced himself at this month’s Planning Commission meeting. You can watch here: ci.manzanita.or.us/pc-meeting-1-13-25.
Brad is a third generation Oregonian, native Portlander, and has been a homeowner in Manzanita for 13 years. Professionally, he’s worked for Nike in global roles, but also in architecture, and commercial real estate development the last seven years, with varying project-types such as mixed use, and a significant amount of housing as of late. He will be a great asset to Planning Commission and the Comprehensive Plan and Housing Ordinance Update project! Welcome, Commissioner Berman!
We also had a Work Session focused on short-term rentals (STRs) during which the STR Committee presented. You can watch here: ci.manzanita.or.us/city-council-work-session-1-15-25/. The City has heard from residents and community members in a variety of ways regarding STRs, such as through the STR Committee, the 2023 Livability survey, and complaints filed with our Code Enforcement Officer.
The City is trying to make a decision about STR policies, to create more livability for those in Manzanita through policies which constrain STR growth and potentially lessen noise and congestion (i.e., parking and traffic) which may arise from renters; while also wanting to provide adequate services to the City, which are funded in large part by our transient lodging tax (TLT) revenue, as opposed to property taxes which many other cities depend on. Due to certain Oregon measures (specifically Measures 5 and 50), Manzanita derives very little from property taxes and, therefore, must fund service-provision through different means.
We would love to receive input from our community members on this issue. Please reach out to our Council members here: citycouncil@ci.manzanita.or.us. There will be additional opportunities for the community to weigh-in on this issue at public hearings when and if any new policies are considered by City Council, so stay tuned.
Thank you so much to everyone who completed our second survey related to the Comprehensive Plan and Housing Ordinance Update. We garnered 76 responses which is huge for a city of our size! We also still have a few 20-mile-per-hour yard signs available for free at City Hall. Come by and pick one up if you would like to show your support for Twenty is Plenty! Lastly, the City has hired a contractor to complete some needed maintenance and repairs to the park. Parts are on order and as soon as we receive them our contractor will begin the repairs. Access to the play structure will remain closed until the repairs are complete. We are moving as quickly as we can to reopen the structure as soon as possible! Thank you for your patience during this time.
We’re off to a great 2025 thanks to all of you who serve and support our City!
