The Port of Hood River continues to progress toward putting together a public infrastructure plan to allow development on Lot 1 on the waterfront.  Port Executive Director Michael McElwee has made presentations in recent days to both the City’s Urban Renewal Agency and the Port Commission on what is needed, and he said it would be “expensive and extensive”  and could mean road improvements and various utility installations.  McElwee says there will be a series of meetings over the course of the next two months, with the intent of giving a final report to the URA board in December.  That would be a part of the discussion on whether tax-increment funding should be use for the infrastructure projects.
