The Wasco County Board of County Commissioners meeting on September 17, 2025, focused on several key topics, including community service programs and adjustments to the meeting agenda.

During the meeting, Leslie, a representative from the county, discussed the significant growth in infrastructure over the past year and emphasized the need for stability in maintaining these developments. The conversation highlighted the importance of consolidating services to ensure smooth operations moving forward.

Carlos, a participant in the meeting, inquired about home repair assistance programs. Leslie responded that while the county does not currently have a minor home repair program, they partner with Neighbor Impact, which provides weatherization services to eligible households through the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP). Leslie also mentioned that the housing authority has a home repair program and offered to share further information with Carlos, who works with Habitat for Humanity.

Additionally, the commissioners discussed changes to the meeting agenda. They proposed moving the public comments section before the executive session and conducting the commission call earlier to encourage more public participation.

Overall, the meeting underscored the county's commitment to community services and improving engagement with residents. The commissioners plan to follow up on the discussed programs and adjustments in future meetings.
