I’d like to know where the ordinance is at today? What still needs to be accom- plished?” “There is a laundry list of 20 to 30 things that still have to be done,” City Admin- istrator Fred Hilden said. “We are working through it as quickly as we can.” Hilden also said city staff would try and have that infor- mation to Gargis in time for the next planning com- mission meeting.

As we get farther along, the dates and time lines will become more evident to you and everyone,” Ruede said. “We set a deadline of June 30, 2016, as a goal to be com- pleted. That’s about all the specifics I can give you right now.” Councilor Maurice Sanders reported that the road commission is short of volun- teers. He said the commission met, but did not have a quo- rum. He voiced concern that the commission might be los- ing one or two more members and that Dunes City might not have a road commission in the near future. He also told the council that the road commission would likely be submitting requests for approximately $100,000 in structural repairs. He warned of the begin- ning of a downward spiraling structural deficit. “The day is coming, and it is coming sooner than you think, that this city will have to decide whether it wants to have a tax base to operate government services at a city level or not. If it doesn’t, it will not be able to function with the revenue it has. “This council needs to be looking at the future, not just next year, but the next three to five years,” Sanders said. In other business, Hilden said the Dunes City website had been hacked, most likely by overseas hackers, in order to spam outbound emails. He said the city has switched to a new, more secure host- ing service that “ended up saving the city about $300 to $400 per year.” 1000 block of Highway 101.
