Good morning, Yakima.

At a Town Council meeting on Monday, Sept.

8, Naches officials discussed proposals to keep the community library open at 303 Naches Ave amid rising fees from Yakima Valley Libraries that could force closure by year-end—about 40 residents urged council members to explore funding solutions and request more time to review proposals while noting costly building update concerns.

Water line work will force closure of South 8th Street between Chestnut Avenue and Walnut Street today and tomorrow—work runs from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and drivers should use alternate routes to avoid delays.
