Wasco County Commissioners are asking the County’s Economic Development Commission to push more for projects that have a better chance to be completed or receive funding in the near term. Commissioner Rod Runyon says they want to have more success with seeing projects on the EDC’s priority list reach completion. Commissioners did approve the 2015 Wasco County Community Enhancement Project list of 55 different projects ranked by the EDC, topped by the City of Maupin’s South Wasco County Library and Civic Center, the Port of The Dalles’ Regional General Wetland Permit, and The Dalles-Wasco County Library children’s addition. The list goes to Mid-Columbia Economic Development Department for inclusion in the region’s Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy.
