The Dalles City Council has committed a maximum of $100,000 towards maintenance and preservation of the Riverfront Trail, while authorizing City Manager Julie Krueger to work with community partners to find more funding. Dan Durow of the Riverfront Trail Committee and Scott Baker of the Northern Wasco County Parks and Recreation District said the trail needs about $300,000 in maintenance. Mayor Rich Mays is a frequent trail user, and he says after 25 years there is maintenance that needs to be done, including crack sealing. The nonprofit Riverfront Trail Committee transferred the maintenance of the trail to the Northern Wasco County Parks and Recreation District, while continuing to fundraise for current and future repairs to the trail.
