Wasco County Commissioners are planning to hold public hearings to learn if County residents want to vote to opt-out of legalizing recreational marijuana.  Under provisions adopted by the Oregon Legislature, cities and counties are eligible to opt out of Measure 91.  Those cities and counties where voters said no by a margin of at least 55 percent in the November 2014 election can opt out by its governing body simply adopting an ordinance, but Wasco County’s disapproval rate was only 52 percent, so such a move would have to be placed on November 2016 ballot.  Commissioner Scott Hege said most of the concerns Wasco County officials have received revolve around the production of marijuana rather than retail outlets.  Hege noted smell, water, fire, and security concerns have all been brought up.  One hearing is planned for mid-September during a scheduled town hall in Dufur.  In other business, Hege and fellow Commissioner Steve Kramer swapped committee assignments, with Hege moving to the North Central Public Health District board and Kramer to the Mid-Columbia Council of Governments panel.
