The Hood River Valley Parks and Recreation District board will hold a meeting on November 4 to go over a proposal to place two measures on the ballot in the May 2022 primary election that would dissolve the current district and then re-form it with a new property tax rate. District director Mark Hickox told the Hood River City Council that passage of Measure 50 in Oregon in 1998 fixed their tax rate. He added with the Hood River Aquatic Center pool reaching the end of its lifespan, surveys of the public showing demand for an expanded community center and more trails, and the need for more funding for parks operations, the district needs more financial options. Both the dissolve and re-form measures would have to pass for either to take effect. Hickox told the Council they would need a resolution from the City to put the measures on the ballot, and the district plans to bring one forward on November 8.
