It’s a busy time for the City of Hood River’s Public Works Department.  Municipal Public Works Director Mark Janeck says they are preparing drawings for summer construction and waiting for bids.  Park maintenance is also a priority, and Janeck notes there has been more use of city parks by both residents and tourists because of the pandemic.  There are also plenty of street projects being planned for this spring and summer, including paving taking place this Tuesday through Thursday on 9th Street between State and Hazel and Hazel Street between 7th and 9th.  There will be no parking allowed between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on those days.
