Editorials, Opinion In about two weeks, community leaders and citizens from around Clark County will gather at Washougal High School as Clark County Commissioner Marc Boldt delivers this year’s “State of the County” address.
It is likely that Boldt’s speech will touch on a variety of topics — the struggles the county faces in recent tough economic times, as well as some of the successes that have been realized.
In our little corner of Clark County, while there have no doubt been financial struggles, there are good things happening that make the future appear to be a little brighter.
In today’s Post-Record, several projects are profiled that point toward an improved outlook.
Camas-based CID Bio-Science is preparing to embark on a $1 million renovation of an historic building that has been vacant for a number of years.

The $17.8 million Woodburn Elementary School will open to students in the fall of 2013.
