Citywide Land Use Group Seeks Input on Apartment Parking Issue
From the Citywide Land Use Group:
Neighborhood Apartment Parking Survey
Dear Neighbors and Community Leaders:
Our Portland community is experiencing unprecedented growth in the development of apartment buildings that include little or no off-street parking. Although a number of these types of older apartments remain along the former trolley lines, the approval of 28 new apartment buildings over the past 18 months has alarmed many of us.
Due to the recent community concern regarding the approval of so many apartment buildings with no parking, the City’s Bureau of Planning and Sustainability (BPS) is conducting a study of residents and neighbors of eight of these older buildings. As a group of volunteers that participate in the Citywide Land Use Group, we felt it was important to conduct our own, complementary survey. This survey is the result of our Apartment Parking Task Force and Editing Team’s work on the no-parking issue over the past four months. It is our attempt to clarify your concerns and needs. We want to give neighborhoods the opportunity to provide constructive criticism to the City on this issue.

Phaedra’s Love
By Sarah Kane
Directed by Jennifer Rowe
Theseus, the man of the people, is at war. The people are suffering in poverty. The poverty is turning the people towards violence. The violence has corrupted the city. The city is crumbling, thousands of jobs are gone – but none of this matters because it’s a royal’s birthday!
A concentrated, contemporary late-night Grecian tale of Phaedra’s doomed love for her stepson, Hippolytus.
