HR Residents To Vote On Charter Amendment

Municipal voters in Hood River are being asked to vote on an initiative that would amend the City Charter to require a public vote before the City can “dispose” of a City park, including a sale, lease, or transfer of property rights unless it is to enhance recreation for the public.  One of the proponents, Tracy Tomahspool, believes changing the charter is the only sure protection for parks.  Opponents believe the measure hinders the City Council’s ability to manage municipal assets.  The measure is on the November 5 ballot.
