Clatsop County (Oregon) Clerk: recorded military discharges and the recording alert service

The recording. The Records Division's page: "The division records the following documents for public record: deeds, mortgages, military discharges, marriage licenses, town and partition plat maps." County Clerk Tracie Krevanko; 820 Exchange Street, Suite 220, Astoria, OR 97103; (503) 325-8511, fax (503) 325-9307; Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. The fee the office charges for a discharge copy is not printed on its pages, so the State's free-recording rule carries it (see the Oregon entries). The alert service. The county's October 16, 2026 news release: "The Clatsop County Clerk's Office is launching a free Property Recording Alert Service (PRAS) on Friday, October 16, to help property owners monitor recorded documents and identify potentially fraudulent activity. The service sends automated email notifications when a new document is recorded with a name that a subscriber has registered to monitor." Subscribers get same-day alerts with a document number, can look up the type and title of newly recorded documents, and may monitor up to ten names per email address; only documents recorded after enrollment trigger alerts. Register free at clatsop.co/records. Clerk Krevanko: "This is another tool residents can use to stay informed about activity involving their property records." The service "is available at no additional cost to taxpayers and is funded through a portion of existing recording fees" - a veteran watching for fraudulent filings against the home can use it beside the recorded discharge.
