HR County Commission Sets Hearing On Rural Residential Marijuana Processing

The Hood River County Commission has set a public hearing for April 18 to consider an emergency ordinance to prohibit the production and processing of marijuana on properties zoned rural residential.  Administrator David Meriwether says the County has received inquiries about those kind of operations, and while a permanent ordinance would go through the usual planning process, this would be a placeholder to allow that process to move forward.  The hearing will take place April 18 in the County Administration Building.  In other business, Commissioners declared this coming Monday will be Minoru Yasui Day in Hood River County.  Yasui received the Presidential Medal Of Freedom in November for his work protesting the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.
