The Mt. Adams Parks and Recreation District is asking voters to approve a levy in the November election that would provide the district with operating money for the first time. The district was created six years ago, but voters have never approved funding, with two levy attempts having been voted down. District board member Laura Mann says the measure would generate about $123,000 per year, allowing them to add staff that could generate additional funds by seeking grants. Mann adds the district wants to develop new community-led programs in the various smaller communities in the area. The levy would be for nine-cents-per-thousand-dollars of assessed property value. The district includes much of western Klickitat County.
