1. CourtC: Stormy Weather Arts Festival weekend was a good one. There was a
very good crowd at Friday's night's Art in Action event at the Surfsand
Ballroom, but it was not sold out. Those attending were fed and entertained
by music and eight artists who were demonstrating their art. Fifty-nine
silent auction items/packages were up for bidding. A portion of the
proceeds went toward scholarships for local children's art programs. Saturday
morning's fashion show at the Coaster Theatre entertained a near capacity
crowd. Five local clothiers paraded their stormy weather attire to music
and monologue. Saturday night's Lloyd Jones concert was a sellout.
Galleries reported a good weekend. WendyH: Ocean Lodge was full on Saturday

1. GeorgeV: There was a public hearing and some discussion at last night's
City Council meeting about the future of marijuana in Cannon Beach.
Currently, because our business license ordinance requires compliance with
both State and Federal laws, a recreational marijuana dispensary could not
be licensed. This is being challenged in the courts in other jurisdictions.
State law does not permit a dispensary within 1000 feet of a school. Cities
have the option to add further restrictions, but can only outlaw it by
going to the voters. Cannon Beach voters passed Measure 91 by a 63 to 37
margin. Several people at the meeting spoke against licensing a dispensary
in Cannon Beach. One gentleman said he is exploring the possibility of
opening a dispensary here as a retirement business for his parents. His
father was the ranger at Ecola State Park and loves Cannon Beach and wants
to live here but needs an income. The Council opted to discuss the
marijuana issue further at the Work Session in December.

2. GeorgeV: There was as public hearing and discussion at last night's City
Council meeting on dune grading. An ordinance was being considered to stop
any grading currently not in the hopper until a study is completed and
incorporating into the comprehensive plan. City staff had projected this
would take 18 to 24 months. After a very long hearing and discussion, the
Council voted to not take action on this ordinance at this time. The City
will move forward as quickly as possible with the study.

3. JimP : Stormy Weather Arts Festival is here. It's not too late yet to
get tickets for both Friday's Art in Action and Saturday's Spotlight
Concert with Lloyd Jones Struggle. Email chamber at cannonbeach.org or call
503-436-2623 now.  Saturday morning's 1030m fashion show at Coaster Theatre
is free. Part of the proceeds from the Art in Action silent auction will go
to kid's arts scholarships at Coaster Theatre, CB Arts Assn and Sea Ranch's
Summer Music Camp. contact jim at cannonbeach.org 503-436-2623

4. LauraK: For the second straight year, Jonathon Hoffman was last night's
Iron Chef winner. Congrats Jonathon.

5. CourtC: The November Business after Hours will be hosted by Allyn at

6. CourtC: Kevan Ridgway has joined the Chamber Marketing Committee. Kevan
brings with him extensive experience and years in tourism and marketing in
Canada. In his own words: "My life and career have revolved around the
tourism industry, from pulling pints in my Dad’s club to being President &
CEO of a regional destination marketing organization. This Chamber, with
its key role in the tourism industry, would enable my continued
contribution to
the tourism industry and the community."
