Mid-Columbia Community Action has a site picked out for a navigation center in The Dalles with multiple agency services, and is working with a development consultant on the project. Community Action executive director Kenny LaPoint said they are planning to use a 1.3 acre site the organization already owns on West Second Street on land zoned commercial/light industrial. LaPoint says they have $1.5 million from the state and $500,000 from the City of The Dalles for the project, but they probably need another $500,000 to do the full build, and they will go to the community for some of that. LaPoint said they don’t have a timeline for development of the navigation center, but they would like to do it in the next 12 to 18 months.
