The start of Hood River County’s parking permit program for its County Forest trailheads has been pushed back. It was originally set to begin on April 1, but it has not begun yet. County Administrator Jeff Hecksel says a combination of some supplies for the program not coming in, an inability to put signs up in higher elevations due to lingering snow, and staffing issues. Hecksel noted in planning the program, they did not plan for a large amount of revenue for the first year of the program, adding it’s more important to make sure it is done correctly. He added once they determine the program can start, it will be posted on the County website.
