MAYOR'S MESSAGE Don't Miss the Bay Area Home Show: Three Days of Inspiration, Activities, and Local Connection Next weekend, I encourage everyone to stop by and enjoy one of our community’s great local events—Oregon’s Bay Area Home Show, taking place April 24–26, 2026, at Pony Village Mall. This three-day event is packed with activities for the whole family, including demonstrations, drawings, food, and more. It’s a wonderful opportunity to gather ideas, connect with local businesses, and celebrate all the ways we make our houses feel like home. I’m especially proud to share that the City of Coos Bay will be well represented, with dedicated staff from every department in attendance. Whether you have questions about water quality, public safety, building projects, or future planning, you’ll find knowledgeable team members ready to help. Representatives from Administration, Water Quality, the Police Department, and the Fire Department will be there, along with our Building Official, Library staff, and team members from Engineering and Planning. This is a great chance to meet the people who serve our community every day and learn more about the work they do on your behalf. Be sure to stop by the City’s booth—not only to connect with staff, but also to enter our daily raffle drawings for a chance to win fun prizes throughout the weekend.

CHANDLER BRIDGE CLOSED TWO WEEKENDS IN JUNE Coos River Highway (Oregon 241) will close at Chandler Bridge for two weekends in June due to a painting and repair project. The first 55-hour closure is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. on Friday, June 12, and will continue until 1 a.m. on Monday, June 15. The second closure will follow the same hours, Friday night to Monday morning, June 19-22. During the closures, travelers from the east end of Coos River Highway can detour along East Bay Road and U.S. 101 to reach Coos Bay and North Bend. The highway closures will allow workers to paint sections of the bridge that are inaccessible when vehicles are moving along the travel lanes. Traffic across the bridge is currently limited to a single lane, with a temporary signal providing traffic control. Most delays are around five minutes or less. Minnesota-based Abhe & Svoboda, Inc., is the prime contractor on the $7.29 million project. All work is scheduled for completion in September. Chandler Bridge opened in 1952 and is located about three miles east of downtown Coos Bay. The paint on the truss is peeling and much of the steel is covered in rust. For more information, visit the project webpage or contact ODOT Public Information Officer Dan Latham at 541-817-5200.

NOTICES AND ADVERTISEMENTS REMINDER The City of Coos Bay has seen an influx of signs and notices being placed in the City’s Right of Way (R/W) lately. The placement of signs in the R/W without a permit is in violation of the Coos Bay Municipal Code Chapter (CBMC) 8.10.110 “Notices and Advertisements”. Some signs placed in the R/W can and do create unintended consequences such as blocking the vision distance of the traveling public and creating distractions for drivers. The City typically sees an increase of these type of signs during the political seasons for public office candidates and ballot measures. The CBMC 8.10.110 States: “Any placard, bill, advertisement, or poster found posted, or otherwise affixed, upon any public property contrary to the provisions of this section may be removed by any employee of the City. The person responsible for such illegal posting shall be liable for the cost incurred in its removal. Please refrain from placing Notices & Advertisements signs in the R/W. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Greg Hamblet, Operations Administrator, at 541-269-1181 ext. 3541Photos from Coos Bay - City Government's post

Visit Coos History Museum starting April 18th, 2026 for the opening of the new exhibit: Feathers in Flight. All are welcome to explore the exhibit during the museum’s open hours, Tuesday – Saturday from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM, included with regular museum admission. This new exhibit celebrates the beauty, diversity, and fascinating adaptations of birds through a display of real taxidermy specimens. Created in collaboration with Fur & Feathers Taxidermy, Feathers in Flight invites visitors to take a closer look at bird anatomy, plumage, and the remarkable species that fill our skies. The exhibit highlights the wonder of birds and the role they play in the natural world, offering visitors a chance to observe these incredible animals up close. Guests are also invited to stay after the exhibit opening for a special talk by CHM Museum Educator Sire Battle exploring the surprising connection between birds, fashion, and conservation. The program will discuss the feather fashion craze of the late 1800s, the conservation movement that led to the founding of the National Audubon Society, and the creation of the landmark Migratory Bird Treaty Act, which continues to shape bird protection today. This talk will also serve as a farewell program for Sire Battle, who has served as CHM’s Museum Educator for the past three years. Join us for this engaging presentation on one of her favorite topics and help wish her well as she spreads her wings and heads east to Florida for her next adventure. Established in 1891, The Coos County Historical Society is an Oregon 501(c)3 not for profit organization and the 2nd oldest historical society in the State. For more information about the Society and the Coos History Museum, visit cooshistory.org or email [email protected].

FROM COASTWIDE CONVERSATIONS TO TWEEN CREATIONS: SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AT THE COOS BAY PUBLIC LIBRARY One Book, One Coast The Coos Bay Public Library is proud to be part of the inaugural session of the largest book club on the West Coast. The One Book, One Coast book club has gathered people from the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California in joining together to read a single book. For this first ever event, George Takei’s book, They Called Us Enemy has been selected. This graphic memoir recounts George Takei’s childhood experience of incarceration alongside more than 120,000 people of Japanese descent, most of whom were U.S. citizens, following Executive Order 9066 in 1942. As part of this special event this book is available in unlimited quantities to our patrons through the Libby app. We hope you will join us in reading this powerful book and attend the activities that we will be hosting that will help broaden our understanding of this dark time in American history such as a screening of Allegiance, a recording of the Broadway musical based on George Takei’s experience in the prison camps, a discussion meeting where we will discuss the book while enjoying snacks, and a live viewing party of the George Takei author talk with the LA County Library Director, Dr. Skye Patrick, and the Long Beach Public Library Director, Cathy de Leon. Tween Club Tweens aged 10-14 are invited to join us on the third Friday of every month for Tween Club. This program is a monthly gathering just for tweens. Every month we do different activities involving crafts or food. This month we will meet on Friday, April 17 from 3-4:30 p.m. to judge cookies. That’s right, we will determine once and for all which store-bought cookie reigns supreme through a careful tasting contest. Be prepared to eat a lot of cookies (milk and lactose free milk will be provided for palate cleansing) and vote to determine the best cookie! Tween Cooking Club Continues! The next meeting of the Tween Cooking Club will be Wednesday, April 15 at 3:30-4:30 p.m. and we will be making PIZZA! Tweens aged 10-14 are invited to sign up for this free fun class where they will learn to make homemade pizza. All supplies will be provided.
