A public meeting outlining proposed updates to Wasco County’s Code Compliance Ordinance will be held on Tuesday evening. Earlier proposals around the enforcement and abatement portion of the ordinance had caused some concern from citizens, and led to County Commissioners asking the planning department to revisit the subject. Community Development Director Kelly Howsley-Glover stresses the nuisance portion of the ordinance is a small portion of it. She notes the bulk of nuisance complaints come from more densely populated areas rather than farmland, and enforcement is complaint-driven. The meeting will be Tuesday from 5:30 to 7:30 at the Planning-Public Works Conference Room on 2705 East 2nd in The Dalles, and it can be attended virtually. Go to wascocounty.org for log-in details and to review the proposed changes.
