We Won!…for now…
18. September 2008 by admin.
The Council unanimously approved a motion to reject the request to rezone Colwood Golf Course. Commissioner Leonard made the motion, Commissioner Adams seconded. Mayor Potter was not present (which was expected). Read more on Oregonlive.com
However, the applicant - represented by Steve Janik - made procedural request where they would be able to submit further testimony within 7 days. As such, Council will take a FINAL vote after that testimony is received. October 22 is the day they are looking at right now.
Thank you to everyone who sent in testimony or presented testimony tonight! You voices were heard!
We encourage you to contact the Portland City Council and thank them for their action on 9/17 and encourage them to remain committed to supporting the Hearings Officer’s decision when they reconvene on this issue on 10/22.
