    The Oregonian Why Portland is footing bill to replace private sewer connections for West Hills but not the eastside By Brad Schmidt Portland is spending an estimated $1.25 million replacing sewer pipes on private property in the West Hills and may soon foot the bill for an additional $2.85 million for more upgrades. Nearly 320 homeowners have agreed to participate in a pilot project that covers the full cost of replacing the pipe that connects a home to the city’s sewer system. Another 1,500 homes sit in high-priority westside areas that could become eligible for free replacements in the future. Typically such costs are the responsibility of homeowners – an obligation many eastside residents learned the hard way in 2012 when the city started charging $5,100 per house to fix old pipes that didn’t meet current city code. City officials say they hope the Southwest Portland project prevents rainwater from leaking into the sewer system through cracks in aging pipes, which during heavy rainstorms can cause raw sewage spills into Fanno Creek. The Bureau of Environmental Services is also repairing or replacing larger main lines in Southwest Portland as part of a long-term project estimated to cost $42.7 million. Bill Ryan, the sewer bureau’s chief engineer, said the city is doing the work for homeowners because simply improving sewer lines in public rights of way won’t do enough to limit sewage spills. “You can take care of the public portion of the sewer and solve (only) a small portion of the problem,” Ryan said.

    The Oregonian With re-election bid gone, what can Charlie Hales accomplish? By Andrew Theen October 28, 2015 Charlie Hales is a free agent. Instead of running for re-election, Hales said Monday that he's ready to tackle affordable housing, homelessness, gang violence and the city's blueprint for the next 20 years of growth. He didn't provide many details Monday, and he and his spokesman declined to provide more information Tuesday. But current and former City Hall staffers agreed that Hales now has more room to get things done, and can look to his last two predecessors, Sam Adams and Tom Potter, for models of successes and failures. "You can really break through some of the walls that people put up because people say, 'It's just politics as usual,'" said Austin Raglione, Potter's former chief of staff. Susan Anderson, director of the Bureau of Planning & Sustainability who's been in city government for two decades, said Hales still has credibility and can now be bolder. "You can take some chances," she said. Commissioner Nick Fish said Hales could look to Adams, who followed his July 2011 decision to not run with a "burst of productive energy." In his last year in office, Adams proposed a budget that included a more than $7 million bailout for Portland public schools. He also conceived of the Arts Tax, expelled Occupy Portland demonstrators from downtown parks, and created a new urban renewal district, though Hales disbanded it. On the other hand, Adams wasn't able to push through a renovation of Veterans Memorial Coliseum, though, or a plan to build a $62 million Sustainability Center.
