raising more revenue for public services and amenities without needing to increase any individual resident’s tax burden? ATROCITY!!!!

The city and certain business leaders may want to inflict this atrocity on Portland for their own monetary reasons, such as raising city tax revenue simply by increasing the population.

also top right. what is this crane lifting up exactly

a screen grab of a section of the blazers slide deck. there’s a graphic meant to symbolize “baseline + incremental impact: renovated moda center. the graphic shows a crane lifting up what seems to be a large gear attached to a caution sign with a lopsided shadow of a stadium in the background, and a few dots we can’t really make out that don’t seem to mean anything

strongest opener to a poll I’ve ever seen in my life

a survey question reading: “ If you are taking this survey on a mobile device and are currently driving or otherwise occupied, please confirm that it is safe for you to take this survey without endangering yourself or others.”

response options are “Yes, can safely take survey” and “I’ll come back later”

I think this might be the source - this is what’s in the current ordinance and PBOT has been saying they’ll use the same *oversight/accountability* structure as FOS. tbd on what that actually means tho since the $ are directed so differently and more allocation seems set to happen thru the budget 👀

PBOT will ensure accountability for the Transportation Utility Fee by utilizing the same structure and process, including use of the existing Fixing Our Streets Oversight Committee, as is currently used with the Fixing Our Streets Program. This structure includes:
Funding allocated to clearly defined programs/services
Annual reports to the Council
Annual external audits
A community committee to provide guidance and oversight

the song is based on a real coyote who rode the MAX in 2002! the truth is out there!

an old tweet from Bird Alliance of Oregon with a picture of the coyote riding the MAX. it says “Meet Portland's most famous coyote, who boarded a Max Train from the airport in 2002! He was ultimately escorted off by security and released back into the wild, but served as inspiration for Modest Mouse's song "Coyotes." #coyoteweek“

reading more closely, seems like portland is the only one that would NEED to consolidate so this might also be about just hating the county that much lol. still wild that they‘re framing this as “so simple and flexible” bc like, who’d pay for the guaranteed service levels in rural areas?

What makes Oregon’s law particularly smart is that it’s flexible.

Other Multnomah County cities like Gresham and Troutdale can choose whether to join or stay separate. Rural unincorporated areas get special protections if they opt out, including guaranteed service levels and voting rights on any tax increases that affect them.

ORS 199.715 is designed to bring together the jurisdictions that benefit from coordination while protecting those that prefer independence.

wild to see this from Isaacs’ counterpart in Eugene’s Chamber of Commerce, later she touts the jobs created by construction and suggests that LTD could just compensate businesses who were heavily impacted rather than upend the project. do you think she’d consider moving to Portland lmao

a section of the Eugene Weekly that reads: Laura Potter of the Chamber says the EmX system is one of the biggest things Eugene can do for economic development. “It’s a way to achieve the positive economic and social benefits of light rail without the infrastructure costs traditionally associated with light rail,” she says. Two of those benefits, she says, are the way a predictable ridership can contribute to a customer base and the way it aids redevelopment.
