Good morning, Corvallis. Here's your local news at a glance for Thursday, the 7th of August.

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • Corvallis city councilors amended their benefits on Aug. 4 so meals count as official compensation and they can eat during meetings without breaking state ethics rules — the change came after a state law banned accepting food unless provided as part of a compensation package. Councilor Alison Bowden said the new guidelines also limit off-record talks among councilors, a move that could affect how they communicate with residents.  Corvallis Gazette-Times

SPORTS NEWS

  • Philomath High’s cross-country teams are preparing for the season as the girls return after a state championship and the boys, with three returning runners, begin practice on August 18 for a meet on August 29 at The Opener in Monmouth—coach Joe Fulton said every runner should fight to earn a spot. Former PHS athlete Carson Gerding earned academic honors at Eastern Oregon while rising senior Caleb Babcock drew scouting attention after playing for the Corvallis American Legion ballcub.  Philomath News
