The Dalles City Council kept its goals for the 2017-18 fiscal year fairly basic during a goal-setting session this week. Mayor Steve Lawrence says they focused the goals on three areas: finishing projects already underway, solidifying departments for the various new department heads the City has, and finish studies currently underway. Topping the goals list are repairs of the Dog River water pipeline and increasing the capacity of the Crow Creek Dam. Lawrence said the only new goal is to develop a plan for the homeless.
