Commissioners raised logistics about event equipment and a recently moved storage unit during the Aug. 4 Downtown Estacada meeting after the Uncorked event.

Organizers said several items — including axes used for an axe-throwing attraction and heavier tent weights — were not found in the expected pile after the event and may be in a trailer or in a new city storage unit. “Wherever those axes went, some of those because I think Connie said she only found a couple of the weights that we just bought,” one organizer said.

Commission members noted that committees were told equipment was moved into a new storage unit the prior Monday and suggested labeling city or commission property to avoid future losses. “Supposedly, all of the committee committees will have access to the new storage unit, but everything's been moved is my understanding. Maybe we need to mark those somehow,” a commissioner said.

The commission discussed access constraints: some trailers or fire-department storage locations are locked and not readily accessible to volunteers, so organizers asked staff to verify where specific items were moved and whether the new unit has 24/7 access or gate-code hours.

Ending: Staff was asked to check the trailer, the city storage location and the fire department holdings for missing axes and weights, to label commission gear, and to confirm access policies for the new storage unit so committees can retrieve equipment for upcoming events.
