Jefferson County Commissioner/Chair Kelly Simmelink and his Colleagues are frustrated and yesterday (March 4, 2021), wrote Governor Kate Brown, hoping this time the Governor’s Office will respond. In the letter, the Commission noted, “Our frustration persists. Additionally, we feel our correspondence to you and Director Allen have been pushed aside since we have not heard back from either.”
On January 27, Governor Brown was sent an urgent letter regarding the struggling businesses within Jefferson County. In essence, the Commission was asking Governor Brown to level the playing field and provide all businesses an equal opportunity to participate in the local economy.
