OTHELLO – Monday’s final budget workshop during the Othello City Council meeting led to a discussion around Adams County Pet Rescue and progress regarding its contract negotiations with the city.
OTHELLO While there have been high-profile incidents and arrests within the last year, gang activity in Othello seems to be decreasing.
“I don’t want to say our gang problem has gone away, but we’ve seen a decrease recently,” said Othello Police Department Detective Steven Perez. “We used to meet once a month with the (Othello) School District, however, the last six months or so I think we had about two (meetings).”
