A 45-lot single family home development in Malaga has already received county approval, despite vocal concerns raised by neighbors.

The Chelan Douglas Port Authority presented plans this week for a nearly $17 million cooling water site that would sit less than a mile from the data centers.

The commissioners say the move will not require voter approval and contend it would only be legitimate if approved by voters in both counties.

The county maintains roads in unincorporated areas which includes populated towns such as Monitor, Malaga and Manson

The Chelan County Hearing Examiner has approved construction of an electrical utility switchyard and four water tanks to support the building complex.

Improvements are planned for a shoreline area on the Columbia River that would serve the roughly 5,000 people who live in the Malaga area.

The single biggest noticeable change with the increase in funding has been the addition of Sunday service.

The Port is paying $2.25 million for about 100 acres of land south of the Malaga Alcoa Highway.

Groundbreaking on the first of three buildings in the 5300 block of Malaga-Alcoa Highway is expected to get underway this fall if all goes well with the permitting process.

Businesses that win “World’s Best” are highlighted by the local people who have taken the time to vote for their favorite gift shop, chiropractor, toy store, and even, Best Radio Station. Banners get made for the different winners, and “bragging rights” (humbly of course). Remember this is a vote by the people, making it highly respectable, and helps highlight companies that just plain rock. Just to be nominated is a really cool feeling. It’s like, “Hey! Someone noticed us!”
