Organic debris in city water?

Since moving to OC I have experienced a constant debris sheen on my toilet bowl that appears to be dirt or organic in source. I have never experienced such elsewhere. This requires almost daily bowl cleaning rather than the weekly routine i had elsewhere.

My suspicion lies with water source (Clackamas River) or lack of solid filtration in the process.

I know, first world problems, right?

Is this a localized problem or systemic? I live in Rivercrest, FWIW

thanks for lucid replies.. just curious, not above more frequent housework.

New Builds by Eastham School

What are the new builds by Eastham school on Molalla and 7th? I've looked up their specific address and can't find anything on them.

Restored for history

I know Oregon City is the oldest chartered city west of the Mississippi River. That said,there are many towns and cities of comparable vintage. One thing that impresses me is the large number of houses in the 100+years group, freshly painted with care to historic detail.OC also has a downtown with many buildings dating to the turn of the last century.

I doubt this happened without some input from someone,be it governmental or civic. when did preservation efforts start, and start to take hold?

Chickens

Hello

I have a family member in Redland who recently became ill and finding difficult to take care of her chickens. She has asked I help her with selling them.

hens are laying and asking 5$ per hen. Must bring own boxes / cages when picking up.

We have about 14 hens and one rooster. Willing to sell in packs or in full. Hens are about 2 years old. Much appreciated (:

Neighbor's Blackberry is causing issues, looking for advice.

Hello, I live in the historic district of Oregon City, and I have a neighbor with a yard full of blackberry that is growing over the property line and into my yard, making it impossible for me to keep my yard blackberry free.

Are there any city, county, or state ordinances here that require people to manage their nuisance plants?

Airbnb

We’re buying another house in OC and are going to rent out our current house. A friend of mine has a couple Airbnbs in Oregon and suggested I look into Airbnd’ing it instead.

OC rules say it goes to planning counsel and they notify neighbors within 300 feet. Just curious if anyone has experience with getting approved and the process.

Big Police Response Last Night

We saw tons of state troopers, Clackamas Sheriff's, and OCPD, all running hot up 213 past Bevercreek towards Mollala. Anyone know what happened? Don't see anything on the news.

Group on 213/Bcreek

What is the deal with the extremist group on the corner of 213/Beavercreek? Racist flags, 45 flags, walking up to/chasing cars screaming profanities? They’re a disgrace to the community let alone a hazard.

Reckless endangerment of a child on Beavercreek Rd 9/6/2024

Occurred 7:19pm on September 6 2024

Black Toyota Tundra License Plate "264HZL" White man in his 40s driving the truck.

Make/ModelToyota/Tundra

GenerationII (XK50) facelift (2013-2021)

We were in left lane on 213 South / Trails End Hwy heading south in left lane to turn left at the Berry Hill intersection to head towards Albertsons. This idiot gets so mad he can't overtake us on the way to a RED light that he swerves into the right lane - swerves in front of us and slams on the breaks with inches to spare. We have a CHILD IN THE CAR. There is BABY ON BOARD stickers all over our car. He did this right before the traffic was stopped for the light very close to the intersection. Definitely lots of witnesses. You are really lucky that my usb drive that records dashcam footage just so happened to ran out of space - I would have cut and dry charges pressed against you right now. Keep driving like that, you'll get whats coming to you. We have a 5 week old son. Shame on you, you soulless emotional idiot.

Off leash dog parks?

I know about molalla state park and I've read up on minto-brown in Salem. I've been to one on the Columbia around troutdale area I'm hoping there may be more where I can open the car door and let the dogs jump out sans leash, where all the dogs are friendly and there's plenty of room to run. Am I asking for too much?

OC Club: What’s Next?

Hey OC friends,

I recently posted about a site I made listing all of the Happy Hour deals in Oregon City (oregoncityclub.com).

I’m wondering what this group would prefer my next “list” be. Karaoke? Live Music? Something else?

I’ve really enjoyed tinkering with this site, and would love to have it be something special for us locals.

Feedback and ideas extremely welcome! 🙏

The Baddest Nissans in the Northwest -- Long Lost Love (Letter)

Hoping someone here can help.

Around 2005, an envelope was found outside the St Paul's Episcopal church in Oregon City, OR.
It is a kind 5 page love letter written to a woman named Trisha by a man named K.C.

The letter was sent to FOUND Magazine and has been a longtime favorite of the editors. We are now making a documentary series about the stories of our favorite finds and could really use your help to track down these people, if anyone has any leads.

*Please Note:  we are documentary journalists looking to respectfully share this personal interest story.*

Trisha: worked at Shari's "at the bottom of the hill" in Oregon City in the early 2000s. She's described as a "healer," warm and accepting. She is 5' tall and was in nursing school at the time, is now a nurse or in the medical field.

K.C.: had a son (who is prob about 20 years old now) as well as a dream to "build and race the baddest Nissans in the northwest."

We are hoping to find Trisha and K.C. and learn more about their lives: did they ever find love with each other or with other people?  Did K.C. make his dreams come true and is now working with cars? Is Trisha now working as a nurse?

We are looking for any leads in tracking them down. Do they sound familiar? Anyone live in/near Oregon City in the early 2000s who may know them? Anyone who worked at or frequented Shari's in Oregon City in the early-2000s who remembers a waitress named Trisha?

Also interested in speaking to someone in the auto racing community near Oregon City.  Where are the race tracks nearby?  Community of Nissan enthusiasts/racers?  Mechanics who build and race cars?  Is anyone willing to go on camera and tell us about what they do and their love of cars and racing?

Lotta questions for you all. Spreading a wide net. Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you for your efforts!!

Fire near maplelane apartments by Berryhill shopping center

There appears to be a fairly large fire, as it's producing thick black smoke at a high rate, from my view it seems to be in the apartments. Does anyone have any news sources or info?
