Location change for April 13 port commissioners meeting

DAYTON-The Port of Columbia has changed the location for the April 13 regular meeting of the port commissioners. Anticipating an increase in the number of community members who will attend, the port moved the meeting to the Youth Building at the Columbia County Fairgrounds. The meeting will still begin at 5 p.m.

The meeting will also be held on Zoom to encourage further community involvement.

One reason for the increased public interest is that the Touchet Valley Trail is on the agenda, and the port commissioners will most likely be voting on the project's future.

The port held a workshop on March 21 to provide the community with information from extensive studies and design work on the trail. The commissioner's workshop on the Touchet Valley Trail is available on YouTube at https://tinyurl.com/3b74fv3w.

Those interested in attending may find it helpful to watch the workshop video and review information regarding the project at https://tinyurl.com/yckj4dv5 before the meeting.

The port will post the meeting's agenda at https://tinyurl.com/5n6s6499 on Monday, April 11.
