LNG (the sequel) ignites county hearing

You’re not here to apply the will of the people,’ says lawyer

After five hours of testimony on the Bradwood Landing liquefied natural gas project, Clatsop County commissioners called it quits Wednesday without taking a vote on the two land-use issues remanded to them by the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals.

The board scheduled another meeting for 6 p.m. July 16, to deliberate.

About 75 people flooded the Judge Guy Boyington Building for the remand hearing Wednesday and attempted to follow a strict set of procedures outlined by the county board and its counsel. Most of the testimony came from project opponents, who urged the board to reject the solutions proposed by Bradwood Landing project developer NorthernStar Natural Gas Inc. of Houston.
