At the August City Council meeting, it was decided that Councilors Ruble and Pierce will research public rights of beds and banks of navigable waterways. The Councilors will be reaching out to all state and federal agencies responsible for managing submerged and submersible land to see what rules and regulations affect our City’s access point to the Tualatin River. Once we have a better idea of what the laws are and how they affect us, we will be able to address citizen concerns appropriately.
