  • The Oregonian Portland Water Plant Threatens Neighbors' Rural Lifestyle
    The Oregonian Portland water plant threatens neighbors’ rural lifestyle, they say By Everton Bailey Jr. November 13, 2019 Pat and Dean Walter didn’t know the loud noises coming from their neighbor’s property in May would have an impact on their drinking water supply. That neighbor is the city of Portland, which own 95 acres that sit next to the couple’s nine-acre property near the Multnomah and Clackamas county line. The city’s water bureau was drilling on the property to test the soil in anticipation of its plans to build a new water filtration plant there. “It shook the earth,” said Pat Walter, who has lived in the area with her husband for 24 years. “That’s why we lost our water, because it loosened the soil down there at the bottom of our well.” The couple, who live in unincorporated Clackamas County, get their drinking water from a well on their property. They said the city drilled about 85 feet from their water source and they believe the resulting vibration led to them getting less water than normal. Testing found that their well now pumps 1.5 to 2 gallons per minute, whereas it previously delivered 9 to 10, they said. They fear the well could go dry if things don’t change by the summer, when the flow from their well typically decreases. Bureau officials have told them they’ll ask the city council in late winter or early spring to give the Walters funds for repairs. “They say we’ll be compensated and we believe we will,” Pat Walter said.

As shown below, the proposed channel change from Channel 10 to Channel 16 would result in a substantial increase in signal receivability for KTVL’s core viewers, and enable viewers to receive the Station’s signal with a significantly smaller antenna. The proposed channel substitution would serve the public interest because KTVL has had a long history of dealing with severe reception problems. The reception issues were 1 47 C.F.R. § 1.401. 2 See Engineering Statement of John E.

  • 2016 First Quarter Report (PDF)
    TRAVEL GRANTS PASS Quarterly Report Q12016 TRAVEL GRANTS PASS Executive Summary Q1 2016 The first quarter of 2016 finished strong with hotel revenues up 26% over the same period last year. This is the second quarter in a row with a 26% increase. This revenue increase led to a 13.6 percent increase in tax dollars generated for Grants Pass. This trend is nice to see particularly during our shoulder season. These healthy numbers are a good indicator of our steady growth in tourism. Hotels have reported good steady business and are optimistic about 2016. The City of Grants Pass Branding Project was in full swing during this quarter, with the goal to complete in April. On April 6th, the City Council adopted the new City Branding Strategy centered around the “Live Rogue” tagline. Now adopted, the goal is to get the new brand implemented as soon as possible ahead of the start of tourist season in late May. As part of the program, a new wayfinding program will be introduced in phase one. The project is just about wrapped up with initial signs expected to be installed by the end of May. A new full size Visitor’s Guide is also being produced and will be distributed to metropolitan and key Visitors Centers in Oregon and neighboring States. This new guide is design to be primarily an “image piece” for the City and a compliment to the current “rack-card sized” guide. Our new hospitality training program, Grants Pass Visitor Journey A2D, will debut at the end of May.
