There’s that empty bagel shop at the corner of Northeast 22nd Ave, a Kettleman’s that couldn’t even survive as an Einstein’s. There’s the mysterious, boarded up building at Northeast Third BY JOSEPH Avenue — and the drinkers who hover GALLIVAN under the trees near Goodwill. According to a release, the BWA wants to make Broadway, which is gap-toothed with empty storefronts, “more enjoyable and ap- pealing to the public, while encouraging new activity to spur creative and varied business expansion.” It wants Northeast Broadway to become “a destination for shopping and dining that will appeal to all Portlanders,” with a good mix of transit types. The BWA is a consortium of business orga- nizations and neighborhood associations formed in late May to create a new kind of planning group. Its aim is to unite different groups to look at Broadway and Weidler as a piece of infrastructure and fi nd ways to im- prove it. The Broadway-Weidler commercial corridor runs between the Willamette River and the Hollywood District Transit Center. BWA blends business organizations and neighborhood associations “in an effort to get them to discuss, agree upon, and support deci- sions that will enhance both,” says Carol Gos- TRIBUNE PHOTO: JONATHAN HOUSE sett, the BWA’s fi rst Chair.

There is a gap in the urban grid where mid-century planning principals called for surface parking lots in lieu of dense, walkable communities. We are repairing this urban fabric with the creation of a mixed-use, dense development that creates a 24-hour neighborhood. Velomor view from NE Holladay We want people to make Hassalo their home, their office, and their playground. We want to invite families to live a more urban lifestyle by providing them the amenities and business they need. We want to invite young professionals to live in a dense, diverse, and transit-oriented neighborhood and entice the restaurants and retail stores that cater to their needs. And we want to invite people to live with 360 degree views of downtown, Mt. Hood, Forest Park, and the Willamette River. The development offers a variety of housing options and retail spaces that can cater to a wide range of people and businesses.

  • Beverage Container Regulation: Economic Implications and Suggestions for Model Legislation
    Beverage Container Regulation: Economic Implications and Suggestions For Model Legislation Charles M. Gudger* and Kenneth D. Walters* INTRODUCTION It is a paradox of modem industrial societies that while they recently have been encountering shortages of many natural resources, more and more resources are thrown away every year. These societies face shortages of energy and at the same time experience an ever- increasing glut of solid waste residuals and litter. In the United States, production of solid waste reached the rate of 3.32 pounds per person per day in 1971.1 A prime contributor to this trend has been the growing use of throw-away consumer product packaging. Packaging is the largest com- ponent of municipal solid waste in the United States, 34 percent by weight.2 Annual U.S. consumption of packaging materials increased from 35 million tons in 1958 to 59.5 million tons in 1970, and will reach a projected 73.5 million tons in 1976, equivalent to 661 pounds of packaging per person per year.3 The use of nonreturnable beverage containers is a significant com- ponent of the solid waste problem. The growing use of nonreturnable beverage containers represents a classic success story in modern market- ing in the United States. In 1958, only two percent of the soft drink packages and 42 percent of the beer containers were nonreturnable., By 1972, 59 percent of soft drink packages and 77 percent of beer contain- ers were nonreturnable.5 In 1958, 12 billion beverage containers were * Associate Professor of Management, Oregon State University.

  • Fall Clinical Meeting October 4-9, 2014
    Texas Club of Internists FALL CLINICAL MEEtiNG October 4-9, 2014 The Nines Hotel Portland, Oregon CME jointly sponsored by Oregon Health & Science University and the Texas Club of Internists TCI Fall Clinical Meeting President’s Welcome Message Leighton and I are excited that you will be joining us in Portland, Oregon this fall. We have spent a week there each of the last two summers, and have come to love this city. We know you will enjoy the trip to Mt. Hood on Sunday: we watched people skiing there in July! And we don’t think the club has ever offered a short hike as part of the Sunday outing. But that’s optional, and shops in Hood River await the more urban members. Of course we get to visit the Willamette Valley for wine tasting, and that will take place on Tuesday. Make special note of the options for wineries, as you may want to experience some others before or after the meeting. While some of the places we would have liked to visit wouldn’t take large groups during harvest season, you may be able to drop in on your own. We also hope you have an extra day or two to enjoy the amazing Oregon coastline. OHSU is excited about our group. The CME department tells us they never had such a willing group of speakers as for this meeting. If you get the chance, take the aerial tram up to the campus. It’s spectacular. We have an out-of-sight band for Wednesday night.

    American Petroleum Environmental Services Air Contaminant Discharge Permit 26-3021 Response to Comments DEQ issued a public notice on May 19, 2017 requesting public comment on DEQ's draft air quality permit for American Petroleum Environmental Services, Inc. DEQ mailed notice to property owners within at least one mile of the facility, and included additional zip codes and neighborhood associations where DEQ anticipated there would be interest. DEQ also provided public notice through publication m two local newspapers, posting of the notice on DEQ's website, and through email; subscribers ofDEQ's email notification list received a message about the proposed permit issuance and the chance to comment. The comment period closed at 5 p.m. on July 3, 2017. The following response to comments combines like topics and comments to minimize duplicates. Comments are paraphrased to address the main point and are not included verbatim. All written and oral (transcribed) comments are included as an addendum to this document. Comments relating to other facilities are not addressed by the responses below. Some of the following comments are verbatim, combined, or paraphrased with similar comments to reduce redundancy. 1. Comment The DEQ should issue American Petroleum Environmental Services (APES) an immediate Cease and Desist order (ORS 468.115(1)) requiring them to shut down until they can reduce emissions below levels that may be harmful to the residents in the area. DEQ should shut the facility down using the authority in OAR 340-216-0082 (permit revocation). DEQ should deny the permit renewal until all neighborhood concerns are met. DEQ response In order to issue a cease and desist order under Oregon Revised Stahite (ORS) 468.115, DEQ would need to determine that air pollution from APES was causing "an imminent and substantial endangerment to the health of persons," and the Governor would need to direct DEQ to enter such an order.

  • Hb 2402 Joint Interim Task Force Funding for Fish, Wildlife and Related Outdoor Recreation and Education
    HB 2402 JOINT INTERIM TASK FORCE FUNDING FOR FISH, WILDLIFE AND RELATED OUTDOOR RECREATION AND EDUCATION REPORT TO OREGON LEGISLATURE December 31, 2016 MEMBERS OF THE OREGON LEGISLATURE: On behalf of the HB 2402 Legislative Task Force, we submit the following report for your consideration. The Task Force for funding for Fish, Wildlife and Related Outdoor Recreation and Education was created by HB 2402 in the 2015 Legislative Session. We were charged with developing recommendations to strengthen the State’s ability to conserve natural resources and connect Oregonians to nature through outdoor recreation and education opportunities. The Task Force was comprised of 17 members from throughout Oregon, four non-voting legislators and two ex officio members (Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission Chair Mike Finley and Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) Director Curt Melcher). We met twelve times from January through November 2016, and convened two groups to develop draft recommendations for full Task Force consideration. Our report to you provides a summary of several thousand hours of hard work by very dedicated and caring Oregonians. We took our Legislative charge very seriously by: 1. Identifying and recommending potential alternative, sustainable funding sources for ODFW. 2. Recommending potential budget adjustments to ensure relevant ODFW program areas are funded in accordance with Legislative direction. 3. Recommending opportunities for ODF&W to better achieve its mission through leveraging, coordinating and budgeting funds from alternate and existing sources. We contacted and received reports from other states on how their fish and wildlife agencies are funded. We conducted a statistically valid survey of Oregonians to ask their opinion on how fish and wildlife should be funded and what their impressions were of the agency.
