A new investigation has renewed debate over whether Councilor Michelle Belkot should return to the C-TRAN Board
Skamania County’s investigation found that four Clark County councilors and the county manager violated multiple rules — including the county charter, OPMA requirements, and proper procedures — when they voted earlier this year to remove Councilor Michelle Belkot from the C-TRAN Board. The report recommends fines, cites potential misconduct, and states Belkot should be reinstated, prompting fresh public discussion over whether the council’s original decision should stand.
