Josephine County commissioners approved three timber-sale contracts during the June 16 administrative workshop.
Forestry staff presented timber-sale contracts, including Palm Chance contract 2026TS-1 and two additional contracts (2026TS-2 and 2026TS-3). Commissioners reviewed the sales, asked no substantive questions, and approved each contract by motion and roll-call vote. For each motion the votes were recorded as yes from Commissioners Richardson, Martin and Smith and the chair declared each motion carried 3–0.
A forestry representative said the department has reviewed the sales and that the operations fit standard county forestry contracting. No financial objections or special conditions were recorded in the meeting transcript.
The contracts will be signed as requested by forestry staff and executed according to county procurement procedures.
