  • By Jacob Bertram Columbia Gorge News

WHITE SALMON — White Salmon City Councilors will be considering a proposal to allow the mayor to declare a water emergency and implement mandatory conservation measures at this Wednesday’s city council meeting.

The proposed amendments to the municipal code on water conservation would grant the mayor the authority to declare various stages of water emergencies and implement conservation measures based on the severity of a given emergency.
