A pair of November ballot measures will ask voters in Underwood to create a Parks and Recreation District that would allow Skamania County to transfer ownership of the Underwood Community Center to that district, and establish a six-year tax levy to provide operational funding.  The approximately 100-year-old building has been owned by the County, and due to budget cuts had announced plans in 2015 to sell the property, but the Community Council negotiated a license to manage the building and park grounds to keep them open.  Blayney Myers, a member of the long-term planning committee for the facility, indicates state law says the only way for the County to turn over the building without putting it on the open market is to do so to another governmental agency.  Myers says the proposed levy be for 20-cents-per-thousand dollars of assessed property value.  The district could still be formed without the tax levy passing.
