The Port of Hood River says it is receiving interest in properties at the former Hanel Mill site the Port has been redeveloping. Port Executive Director Michael McElwee says they are engaged in early discussions with a pair of businesses that are interested in acquiring space at the site. On-site utilities are done, but McElwee notes water pressure for fire suppression is still being addressed. McElwee says the businesses the Port is talking to are in the manufacturing sector.
