County Commission Discusses Parkdale Plan

Hood River County Commissioners received an overview of an unincorporated community plan for Parkdale at their meeting this week, but elected to wait to move forward with scheduling a public hearing on it.  That was in part because Chad Muenzer, who represents Parkdale on the Commission, was unable to attend the meeting.  The plan has already gone through the Planning Commission.  It makes zoning changes to allow more options for duplexes and accessory dwelling units, and to allow multi-family housing with limits in the commercial zone.  Consultant Matt Hastie said growth is limited by the capacity of Parkdale’s wastewater treatment plant.  In feedback from the community while the proposed plan was developed, Hastie reported conflicting feelings about expanding the plant.  The Commission will address the plan again at its September meeting.
