They may do so, but probably not at least until after the November 6 election. The Wahkiakum Chamber of Commerce has raised the issue by asking the town council and board of county commissioners to hold a "sewer summit" to discuss what can be done to expand town sewer and water systems and thereby spread operating costs over a larger group of ratepayers. The Chamber's board of directors recently generated a...
