THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 2016
‘Now that Oregon LNG has pulled out, what would
you like to see happen on the Skipanon Peninsula?’
“Nothing. Actually, I
wouldn’t mind some-
thing that created
jobs that was light.
But not something so
dangerous.”

Riverwalk. That
would be amazing.

landing so you can
send a kayak out.”
Richard Garner, Astoria
THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK
“I’d like to see them
possibly turn that
into a nature con-
servancy, or some-
thing that would
allow for the P ort to
expand over there.”
