Crews from the City of The Dalles and a contractor will paint center and side lines on selected high-traffic streets Monday and Tuesday, Oct.7 and 8, beginning at 7 a.m. each day, weather permitting.

The city is currently using a new epoxy-based, modified urethane paint. This new type of paint is expected to last for several years rather than just one year. Extra precautions are needed to give the epoxy-based paint time to dry, however, because it cannot be easily removed from vehicles.

GOLDENDALE — A first-of-its-kind disposable artist’s palette for amateur painters, art educators and others is being marketed by Toss Products LLC, a startup company located in Goldendale. Paint Plates is the name of a palette made in the U.S. from 100 percent recycled paper that is the brainchild of Felicia Gray, a local painter and art teacher.
