Hood River County Commissioners continued the painstaking work toward preparing a public safety levy for the May ballot, asking County Administrator Jeff Hecksel and Sheriff Matt English to look at service levels at various tax rates.  Hecksel says they continue to narrow down the options, but another worksession has been set for Monday at 3:30 p.m. in the County Administration Building to continue to hash out details.  The Commission has been targeting a rate no higher than 89 cents per thousand dollars of assessed property value, and Hecksel says the numbers he and English have been asked to look at and determine services that can be covered are around the 80 cent mark.  Hecksel says the hope is to have a draft of a ballot measure for the Commission’s January 21 meeting, with approval to place on the May ballot in February.
