This is a botched roll out from @PortlandBPS. A major rewrite of the city's zoning code should be available to review months before it comes into effect, not the day after.

100 years ago there was a three story building at N Philadelphia and Lombard in St Johns. Today neighbors are freaking out over the possibility of a four story building on the site. nextportland.com/2018/04/17/…
