The Wasco County Commission decided Wednesday to rescind a December decision to leave the North Central Public Health District. Representatives of the other two counties in the district, Sherman and Gilliam, contended the withdrawal could only take place after the district had been in place for five years, and that mark did not arrive until two weeks after the December vote. Commissioner Scott Hege says the panel agreed there was no benefit to going through legal action on the decision, and would continue on with its work, and could make another decision to withdraw before the end of this year to leave at the end of the 2015-16 fiscal year. Hege noted Wasco County’s concerns around how the health district is governed and how public health services can be best delivered in the County remain…but he hopes all parties can work together to address them.
