HR County Commission To Consider Rec Lands Closure Due To Fire Danger

Hood River County Commissioners will hold a special meeting Tuesday to consider closing the county forest to recreational use due to fire danger.  County Administrator Jeff Hecksel says fire risk is very high right now, adding 90 acres of County forestland were affected by the recent Fir Mountain Fire.  He added camping on forestlands on the east side of the Hood River Valley has become a concern.  Tuesday’s meeting will be held online at 4 p.m.  Log-in information is available on the Hood River County website.
