When you take a stroll across the new bridge at Belt Park, you can thank the Hermiston High School metals class and especially Zeb, Michael, Rayshawn and Chase who designed and built the replacement.

Also a shoutout to Abe Wright who built the original wooden bridge as an Eagle Scout project 13 years ago. He was at the park today to celebrate the unveiling of the new bridge.

The City of Hermiston is updating its housing code to comply with Oregon’s new laws. The goal is to make it easier and faster to build more housing options like middle housing, especially in areas previously limited to single-family homes.

These updates will expand housing choices and align local regulations with new state requirements aimed at addressing Oregon’s housing shortage.
