for my university studies class, it was suggested that i attend a neighborhood/city council, or a city planning commission. i got an e-mail about the Portland Plan Workshop having one of their workshops nearby at david douglas high school last thursday-- so i decided to attend with some of my fellow PSU classmates.

to my surprise, the workshop was actually very interesting. i originally came in expecting someone to bore me to sleep, but with mayor sam adams there speaking through the whole event covering all areas about how we as a city can create a plan for the future to improve life in the portland area by 2035, it was a great way for portlanders to help address the ongoing problems and to learn more about our city.

end.
