Mary Corp, one of the members who voted for the Ridgeway site, urged the council to consider the downtown location and pre- sented a list of signatures from people who supported that site. “One of the things that every city recognizes is the ability of your downtown to create a sense of place, and I see that Hermiston, as we’ve grown larger, have recog- nized that we need to devel- op kind of a sense of com- munity and a sense of place,” she said. “... I believe that, with the existing parking area that’s behind the library and then the acre that’s avail- able from the school district, that we could create a beau- tiful location and a beautiful IDFLOLW\WKDWZRXOGEHEHQH¿- cial to all of the community and to our seniors.” While several people con- curred, others disagreed, cit- ing the ease of construction RQWKHÀDW$VSHQVLWHDQGWKH ability for future expansions on the larger lot.

Councilwoman Jackie Myers said Harkenrider was deserving of the recognition. “No matter if you agree with everything Frank Har- kenrider has done in his very, very long service, colorful service, you cannot deny that service, and this is simply a tribute to the person who do- nated more time than prob- ably anyone else in the city of Hermiston ever has,” she said. Mayor Dave Drotzmann said, although it is never easy to name a facility af- ter one person, he believed Harkenrider earned the dis- tinction. “There isn’t anybody that’s Hermiston’s greatest cheerleader besides Frank Harkenrider,” he said. “... $Q\ERG\ ZKR KDV KHDUG RI Hermiston knows about wa- termelons, and they know about Frank Harkenrider.” In other City Council news: • Council members changed the city dog licens- ing from an annual to a life- time fee to encourage own- ers to comply with the law DQG WR KHOS ¿QG WKH RZQHUV of dogs at large. • The council approved a FRQWUDFW GHVLJQDWLQJ $QGHU- VRQ 3HUU\ $VVRFLDWHV DV the city’s engineers of record. $IWHU D SXEOLF KHDULQJ with no testimony, the coun- cil approved an ordinance annexing into the city two acres of land on the west side of Southwest 10th Street at the request of the property owner. is acting as the front line between the public and the school, whether in person or by phone.
