Authorities in Lincoln County are continuing to search for 2-year-old Dane Paulsen who was reported missing from his home Saturday afternoon.
According to a news release, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office responded at about 4:25 p.m. Saturday to Paulsen’s home near milepost 21 on Highway 229 north of Siletz.
Paulsen was reportedly playing in the front yard of the home and out sight from his parents when he went missing.
“Dane is friendly and fearless, and is comfortable around strangers and water, but cannot swim. Dane is known to love water and vehicles,” police said in the news release.
As of Sunday night, police said 382 acres have been searched. Assisting in searching efforts include 88 certified search and rescue members, 138 community volunteers, 40 investigators, six human trailing K9s, four drones, four divers and four watercraft.
Police said there is “no evidence at this time to suggest criminal actions are involved in this incident.”
A gold colored station wagon driven by an adult male police said the family did not know was seen near a bridge by the home 30 minutes before Paulsen disappeared. Police said the man and vehicle were located through a tip and are no longer a person of interest for the incident.
Police said investigators are following “numerous leads” and have the Sheriff’s Posse, multiple search and rescue teams and community volunteers searching the area. Marine teams and divers are searching the Siletz River, police said. Also assisting in the investigation are the Lincoln County Major Crime Team and the FBI.
The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office is also being assisted by Oregon State Police, Lincoln City Police Department, Newport Police Department, Siletz Valley Fire, the Lane, Clackamas and Polk county sheriff’s offices, Corvallis Mountain Rescue Unit, Mary’s Peak SAR and Region 3 K9.

Oregon’s economic growth hindered by high taxes and permitting delays, survey finds
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A recent statewide survey of business owners and local leaders shows what may be hindering Oregon’s economic growth.
Governor Tina Kotek’s Prosperity Council shared the results earlier this week, which includes input from more than 1,000 respondents in 35 of the state’s 36 counties.
The 16-member council was formed in January to advise the governor on her Prosperity Roadmap, which is an effort to bring more economic opportunities to Oregon.
The survey focused on business climate, tools and growth, and workforce and will be used to help determine what policy recommendations the council offers in June.
Overall, the respondents showed frustration in permitting delays and concerns about the lack of development-ready land and infrastructure.
There were also calls to overhaul the state’s Corporate Activity Tax, which was enacted in 2019 and is based on a business’s commercial activity. It applies to businesses with more than $1 million in commercial activity within the state.
One respondent wrote that Oregon’s reputation as a place that’s hostile to mid- and large-sized businesses is somewhat deserved. Numerous participants expressed concern over the lack of quality public education in the state.
Workforce development was another common issue. Survey respondents called for expanding Career and Technical Education programs so they can better meet industry needs. There were also calls to address structural barriers, such as lack of housing, childcare and transportation.
