Chelan County Commissioner Bob Bugert is hosting two community meetings in July in the Upper Valley to update residents in the Leavenworth and Plain areas on timely issues impacting those communities.
The meetings scheduled are:
- Leavenworth: 5 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, July 7, in the community room of Chelan County Fire District 3, 228 Chumstick Highway
- Plain: 9 to 11 a.m. on Friday, July 8, at Beaver Valley Lodge, 18630 Beaver Valley Road
Bugert will provide general Chelan County government updates at both meetings. He also will be joined at the meetings by a variety of county representatives.
At the Leavenworth meeting, Chelan County Natural Resources will provide updates on two ongoing projects: the Leavenworth-area tubing study and the Icicle Work Group. The Chelan County fire marshal will talk about the new fire hazard designations as well as efforts to develop a Wildland Urban Interface Code. And Public Works will talk about the ongoing Cascade Orchard Bridge deck project.
The fire marshal also will attend the Plain event, where Natural Resources will discuss the status of the Upper Wenatchee Pilot Project. Both meetings will have opportunities for questions from the public.
Bugert, who represents District 2 for Chelan County, meets quarterly with the Upper Valley community to discuss updates on county projects and issues and to answer questions from the public.
