Hide @wutherering.bsky.social · 5hthe Portland metro association of realtors and multifamily northwest submitted testimony in favor of the IE4A resolution!

Hide @wutherering.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Personally I will be ranking Novick but not her. IMO the D3 incumbents are the best set that is politically possible for upzoning 130
Hide @wutherering.bsky.social · 02/10/2026She seems to actively be courting the NIMBY vote in a way that Novick has been skirting around (because he thinks upzoning is good personally, even if there are countervailing political forces) 380
Hide @wutherering.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Agree, there are a lot of red flags that to me amount to “this doesn’t fit into the character of the neighborhood” 1150

Hide @wutherering.bsky.social · 27/09/2026And personally, I really want BPS and permitting to keep getting funded. And I think city council is much more likely to do that than people whose jobs it is not to understand how our city government works :/ 050
