Commissioners give updates on parks, housing, overdose review pilot and county services
Summary
During announcements, commissioners reported on parks-donor property work, Crabtree Park discussions, a culvert project, an overdose fatality review pilot, Stratus Village housing waitlist, animal-rescue coordination on dog control, and upcoming public engagement sessions at the county headquarters.
Commissioners used the announcements portion of the meeting to summarize ongoing county projects and community partnerships.
Commissioner Stair (as recorded) said CPRD is moving ahead on several projects including continued work on the Sanders Estate property donated in 2017; CPRD plans to pursue Phase 1 additions and to consult city leaders for next steps. He said Crabtree Park discussions will continue and that the county may hold an executive session. He reported progress on a culvert issue with what he referred to as state fish-and-wildlife partners and said work is expected to begin in April.
Stair also described participation in an overdose fatality review team pilot with state partners, the sheriff’s office, Parole and Probation, Provoking Hope and Health and Human Services; the team mapped a recent overdose and reviewed service contacts across the involved person's life course to identify missed interventions. He reported the Stratus Village housing project is progressing and that the Housing Authority intends to notify interested parties when its waitlist opens via the housing authority landing page (hayc.org). He noted a recent meeting with representatives from multiple animal rescues to discuss dog-control program coordination with the sheriff’s office.
Additional announcements: a county fire district is relocating operations to 3 Mile Lane (Station 15); the county will hold an informal public chat at the Yamhill County Headquarters building (former OMI Building) on the first Thursday of each month; and a CCO retreat and meeting with the Oregon Health Authority director were scheduled. The chair closed the formal session at 10:29 a.m.
