City officials in The Dalles are encouraging citizens to sign up for virtual town hall on March 9 to help shape The Dalles Vision 2040 document. An initial community survey was done in November. Mayor Rich Mays says the responses are helping to shape the March 9 discussion. Six broad categories came from the first survey, including enhancing education, creating economic vitality, providing recreation and open space, improving governance and infrastructure, fostering cultural enrichment, and strengthening and sustaining community life. The meeting will be on Zoom from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on March 9, and to register go to thedalles.org.
