Today's riddle: What do you call a one-legged Big Foot? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Clatsop County public meetings for Sept. 29, 2026 (dailyastorian.com) — Astoria residents have a busy stretch of public meetings coming up, including City Council and Development Commission sessions at City Hall and a Port of Astoria board meeting at the port offices. Regional boards, coffee chats with Seaside officials, and countywide committees also meet over the next week, giving locals many chances to weigh in on city decisions, libraries, planning, and services.
• Clatsop County health inspections for August (dailyastorian.com) — Astoria diners may be reassured that nearly all Clatsop County restaurants scored in the 90s or higher on August health inspections, and Astoria Coffeehouse and Bistro quickly improved from a low score to a perfect 100 on reinspection. County officials stress education over punishment, explaining common violations and how local kitchens corrected them, and they invite residents to review full inspection reports online.
• High school football: Forest Grove, Banks win big (youroregonnews.com) — Banks' football team recently traveled to Astoria High School and beat the Fishermen 24-6, controlling the game after a scoreless first quarter with a strong second-quarter surge. The story highlights Astoria's ball-control strategy, Banks' run-heavy offense, and how the Braves are adjusting to a more grind-it-out style while eyeing upcoming games against Seaside and other coastal opponents.
