URA Governance Topic Of Discussion

The Columbia Gateway Urban Renewal Agency board had a discussion Tuesday evening about the future of governance of Urban Renewal in The Dalles, but there was no move to enter into a reorganization process.  Agency board member and Wasco County Commissioner Steve Kramer re-expressed his feeling The Dalles City Council should be responsible for decisions on projects that are occurring in the City, as was the case from 1990 to 2016 when the Council served as the URA board.  But fellow board member and City Councilor Darcy Long-Curtiss said involvement from other taxing districts represented on the URA board is important.  The Columbia Gateway URA’s debt obligation calls for the agency’s lifespan to continue through 2029.
