Streets And Waterline Stay On Top Of TD Council Goals

The Dalles City Councilors discussed its goals for 2016 during a worksession on Monday.  Mayor Steve Lawrence says the number one goal remains streets in the City, as they continue with the second year of a three-year moratorium on building new streets while making repairs to existing ones.  He says they did 20 miles of repairs last year, and will continue this year with a priority of chip seal throughout the city.  The second priority remains dealing with the 110-year-old Dog River water line from the City watershed, which is wooden and leaks about a million gallons a day at full flow as it runs through the Mount Hood National Forest.  Lawrence says they are continuing to work through the permitting process with the U.S. Forest Service, and they have applied for a four million dollar grant to help pay for full replacement of the line.
