Every major policy intended to support people moving from homelessness to housing is due in no small part to the leadership of @CommishFish - we all owe him a debt of gratitude.
“Poll after poll, meeting after meeting, confirms that homelessness is the top concern in our community." - PDX Commissioner Nick Fish. Orgs are currently providing services, but more funding is needed to increase impact. @ImpactNW ED Andy Nelson agrees.

A big thank you to Chris Warner of @PBOTinfo, Jay Clark with Polity Group, Jef Green of C&E Systems, Sonia Schmanski, chief of staff for @CommishFish, and Ivo Trummer at the @PortOfPortland for sharing your valuable expertise with our Public Service Training.
Thanks for the question. There are a host of legal, financial, jurisdiction and equity issues to be worked out. Stay tuned. First, we get our house in order.
Proud to begin transitioning City bureaus away from gas-powered leaf blowers, and excited to begin considering environmentally friendly changes citywide. opb.org/news/article/portlan…

Leaf blowers harm our public health thru air & noise pollution. That's why today I testified before Portland City Council in support of @CommishFish's proposed phase-out of gas-powered leaf blowers. I'm glad to partner w/the City as we at @multco consider how we can act as well.

#BlackFriday is in full swing in Portland's neighborhood business districts! Stretch your dollars w/ special promotions in Multnomah Village, Hillsdale, Kenton and Foster Area. #HolidayShopping #PledgeLocalPDX
Thanks Jack. I thought you were referring to Parks. As for water, I share your concern with the new estimates. But they don’t take $ out of Parks. Parks gets General Fund support. The Water Bureau is ratepayer funded.
Jack...which cost overruns at Parks are you referring to? For example, the Parks Bond is on time and on budget.
