Transportation Committee Meets In The Dalles Friday

The Oregon Legislature’s Joint Committee on Transportation will make a stop in The Dalles on Friday as part of its statewide tour.  Hood River County officials plan to make sure they get a message to that panel.  County Commission Chair Jennifer Euwer says they want to make sure the committee knows how tight local transportation budgets are.  The committee will take a tour of The Dalles-area transportation facilities and have a roundtable discussion with the Lower John Day Commission on Transportation before a public meeting at 5 p.m. Friday in The Dalles Middle School commons that will include a review of state transportation funding followed by public comment.
