Invitation to the North Portland Land Use Group
Arbor Lodge residents, this Thursday, join the North Portland Land Use Group to hear about broader land-use issues affecting our neighborhood as it relates to our place within the city.
At this meeting, people from all over North Portland will gather to hear a report on proposed toxic waste dumps in North Portland's Willamette River Superfund area. Also, Portland Housing Bureau is asking for feedback on a report they've develop that provides a comprehensive understanding of vulnerable populations, areas of opportunity, neighborhoods at risk of gentrification, understanding how we choose where we live.
If you've still got room for more, stick around for two presentations educating you on how to use online mapping tools to weigh in on the City's plan for how to shape our neighborhood over the next 25 years! http://www.portlandbps.com/gis/cpmapp/
