Yes....yet another meeting of the minds on Urban and Rural Reserves...what to do with our (sacred), I mean precious, I mean existing farmlands. Do we preserve them? Leave them and their inhabitants as they are for years to come...and instead grow from within city centers and GO UP. OR do we make use of the farmlands and expand our city centers and label the land as 'future' Urban Reserves and see future homes for Jobs/Homes. OPB and the Forest Grove NewsTimes host Washington County Commisioner/Chairman Tom Brian (PROPONENT of OUT) and Portland Mayor Sam Adams (PROPONENT of UP) tonight at 7:00 @ the Civic Center in Hillsboro for an hour long discussion. Here's some references...
