Wasco County Commissioners Steve Kramer and Scott Hege will be taking part Wednesday in the Association of Oregon Counties’ legislative committee retreat, leading to the cancellation of the usual County Commission meeting that would have taken place this week. Kramer says the AOC’s panels current priorities are topped by housing, water, and mental and behavioral health. Kramer would like to see mental health move to the top of the list, believing that component is a large part of other issues. Kramer adds Mid-Columbia Center for Living is in the process of hiring a new executive director and getting that organization on the right track.
