City Council S2HC hearing -- we need amendments from PSC & community to be introduced

Tim McCormick
 

Dear Councilmembers,
I am watching the City Council hearing now, and was extremely surprised to see that the overview of community feedback and amendments, as presented by BPS/ Eric Engstrom omitted any mention of: 
  1. the Planning and Sustainability Commission's recommendations from transmittal letter, and 
  2. all community-proposed amendments other than those of Portland: Neighbors Welcome. 
I urge you to bring these crucial materials, representing a tremendous amount of Portland citizen input and deliberation over the last year, into the discussion and listed as potential amendments for public discussion. 

The amendments proposed by PSC, and other community groups PDX Shelter Forum and PDX Main Streets, can be found at:
s2hc.pdxshelterforum.org > Amendments. 

Thank you for your commitment to robust public discussion of this important legislation, including the roles of citizen input such as those delegated to the Planning & Sustainability Commission.  
Tim
