The Port of Hood River Commission decided to continue considering an RV park on its Lower Mill property targeted towards housing for construction workers when a new Hood River-White Salmon Interstate Bridge is erected, even though a concept of an over 100-space facility did not pencil out. Commissioner Mike Fox suggested looking at a smaller 40-space park with fewer improvements, adding agencies around the region need to consider the need for bridge construction worker housing will probably require in the vicinity of 300 units. Commissioner Kristi Chapman said they need to focus on getting the message to other governmental bodies and the community of what the need will be. Fox noted the purpose of an RV park at the Lower Mill site would not be for the Port to make money, but to help the community protect available housing.
