YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder
Born today, you are highly expressive and
always willing to share your thoughts and
opinions with those around you. You have a
habit of talking more than you listen, and that
can occasionally cause problems for you --
especially when you encounter someone as
vocal as yourself, or when you find yourself in
a situation that requires you to learn rather
than teach.
THURSDAY, MAY 21
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You’ve not
been taking things very well when it comes to
opinions that differ from your own. It’s time
to pinpoint the cause of this problem.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You mustn’t
let your eagerness be interpreted in the wrong
way today. You’re not about to give in to
another’s unreasonable demands.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be
considering something that was not on the
112 Union County
Legal Notices
table before, but much has changed since you
first found yourself in this position.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’re not
willing to spend money on something sight
unseen today. Negotiations will continue,
therefore, until you strike a fair deal.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You’ve been
limiting yourself to ideas others would con-
sider small. Today you can begin to think big
and anticipate a large reward.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Someone
dear to you is likely to think you are judging
if you’re caught watching what he or she is
doing too closely. Keep your distance!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You
and a loved one will have to compromise
when it comes to your destination today. You
can’t end up in two places at once, can you?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You
may have changed your mind about some-
thing that was very important to you in the
past. Today you can share how you feel with
Wallowa County reserves the
right to reject any and all bids
not in compliance with all pre-
scribed public bidding proce-
dures and requirements. Wal-
lowa County further reserves
the right to reject for good cause
any and all bids upon a finding
of the agency it is in the public’s
best interest to do so.

The CWSRF loan has been paid in full in FY 2019-20 therefore the approved budget for the Debt Fund is -$0-. Water and Sewer funds are not asking for an increase in rates
this year. Urban Renewal was under levied which will increase property tax revenues to the City's General Fund. At the time the budget was approved it remains unclear what
impacts the COVID-19 pandemic will have to the City.
