I don't remember voting on Portland's new "Climate Action Plan."

I wonder what special interests advocated for it and wrote it? I thought it was an aspirational document and didn't realize it was going to be used as a club to block major projects around the region.

Why don't the other CRC partners have the guts to tell Adams and Bragdon to grow the hell up?

Like who, Blabby? Vancouver Mayor Pollard? Or the new guy who just backtracked his campaign pledge of no tolls?

Sounds reasonable to me especially number one.

Sure, either one of those guys, Paul. I'd love to see literally anyone tell these windbags to shut the hell up.

Pollard's comment in Sarah's post below makes it pretty clear that he's learned his lesson about trying to work with Portland. He was basically saying "I thought we had struck a deal and now you're trying to shut the whole thing down." Leavitt will learn soon enough.

You know there are 10 people on that group. Hmmm, now I wonder why Adams and Bradgon didn't want to take a vote today? I wonder why they won't want to take one next meeting either?

Get out of the bubble guys.

"Daylight the projectโ€™s internal decision making to ensure an unrestricted flow of information... possible."

Right, like the way Sam 'daylighted' the truth about his relationship with Beau Breedlove. And the way he 'day
lighted' the information requested by the AG.

What a hypocrite. And what kind of verb is 'daylight'?

Blabby,

City Council, not general voters, approved the Climate Action in October. Story about it here:

He forgets to mention that the reason he's had such a hard time getting federal funding for the Sellwood Bridge is because the government refused to give him money for a pedestrian/bicyclist focused bridge.

The Couver screamingly needs that rail hook up for development with it's big sis, Portland, and PDX needs the $$$ flow of the Washingtonians. And if this whole group of trailer park trash (that's right, I said it lil sis: Your fat!) wants to drama up and emasculate it's own future, and if the snobs who can't run a local gov't like it's a democracy in America (that's right I said it big sis: Your bossy!) then Fuggudeaboudit.

Let's all just continue to slide into the smelly "mor"-"ass" of economic and social deprivation of becoming Northern Mexico with the equivalent of border wars.

Mayor Elect Tim Leavitt's recent stance on polls is no polls for locals and for local businesses. He is in favor of tolls for interstate travellers. They should pay tolls, their local tax base was not used for the building of the bridge.
