When The Dalles City Council returns to its chambers September 11 after taking the month of August off, one of the topics of discussion will be whether to proceed with placing a 24-hour bathroom facility somewhere in the city. Mayor Rich Mays says they would be looking at a heavy-duty but easy to maintain facility. The two main issues to consider are the cost of somewhere around $185,000, and the location, with the city-owned parking lot on 3rd Street among the suggestion. Other location suggestions have included near The Annex on Second Street operated by Mid-Columbia Community Action.
