I missed part of today's city council mtg bc of work but when I did tune in and scrolled back - well, city council work session went about as well as you’d expect.

The fact that this guy is shit-talking taxes while demanding taxpayer money for the renovation shows how bad faith this all is. I’m mostly disappointed in the Portlanders who have egged Dundon’s awful behavior on, especially the journalists.

Not my district, but c’mon man. I’ll be sending a letter to Parks about this (with a cc to the D3 councilors), but this is one of those moments where in the midst of the many ongoing policy challenges that Portlanders experience that have no near term solution, you don’t add some new pain like this

Just want to remind everyone that the Mayor cut 200 critical jobs which will result in significant service cuts at a time when Portlanders need govt the most, meanwhile he kept 70 vacancies in the police bureau even though per PPB's own staffing report they will NOT fill most of those positions. 🙃

The new narrative about the house of Louie is interesting. We tried to go out head high and did press. Now that old press is being forgotten… go hunt back to 2024.

Sigh… too hot to ride anywhere. But the county moved faster than last time with a heat wave. However, this is typical. They fuck around the first time. Find out. And then do it faster after. Then next summer, same shit.

And Dundon - Aligning with the Mayor and the Chamber on a major construction project opens the door for political action committee (PAC) funding from local construction unions and business coalitions.
