NORTH BEND — Some members of the North Bend Professional Firefighters Asso- ciation are feeling the pressure of Ballot Measure 6-177 as residents decide whether or not to lower the public safety fee. “Should (the measure) pass, we will see a 28% reduction in our frontline firefighters and we absolutely can’t have that right now,” said Luke Rector, a member of the association. The current May ballot measure asks residents, “Shall the Public Safety fee be reduced from $30 to no more than $15, with voter approval for future increases?” The measure’s summary describes a “yes” vote as reducing public safety funding by $785,000, resulting in the elimination of police services from 11 p.m.-7 a.m. A “yes” vote also would Photo contributed by Patricia Pepper, Phoenix Photography reduce detective staffing by 50 Heads were looking up Friday morning as the Oregon Air National Guard performed flyovers with F-15 Eagles to salute healthcare workers for their work during the COV- percent, and eliminate police ID-19 pandemic.

STIMULUS CHECK | CHARITY Make a Donation If you’ve been fortunate enough to have a predictable income and healthy cushion of savings at this point, you should consider donating your stimulus funds to charity.

Many non-profit organizations are struggling right now from a one-two punch: increased needs from people out of work, plus decreased donations coming in to help them. Your gift could be extremely helpful at a critical time when it would do the most good for people in need.

BASEBALL MLB predicts big losses for games without fans NEW YORK — Major League Baseball told players their prorated salaries would contribute to an average loss of $640,000 for each game over an 82-game season in empty ballparks, according to a presen- tation from the commissioner’s office to the union that was -ob tained by The Associated Press. Painting a picture of a $10 billion industry shuttered by the contagion, the 12-page document titled “Economics of Playing Without Fans in Attendance” and dated May 12 was an initial step in negotiations aimed at starting the delayed season around the Fourth of July. Teams say the proposed meth- od of salvaging a season delayed by the coronavirus pandemic would still cause a $4 billion loss and would give major league players 89% of revenue. They contend they lose more money with each additional game played. The players’ union, however, believes clubs would lose less money with more games.
