Last week Portland City Council unanimously passed a pair of ordinances that I introduced to advance housing production in response to the ongoing challenges in the housing market. This legislation sends a strong signal to non-profit and for-profit developers and homebuilders that Portland is serious about building more housing!
I would be curious if developers are as enthusiastic as Carmen Rubio. How about clearing a path so that getting a permit to build takes less than a YEAR!
Rubio claimed that "stakeholders" participated in this project. Developers qualify as "stakeholders." But who knows what actually happened. If Portland had an aggressive media, an enterprising reporter would wear out some shoe leather tracking down developers in order to publish and answer to your excellent question. It will be interesting to see whether that happens.
Is the City of Portland ever going to hold the developer of the Ritz Carlton (LOL) tower accountable for blowing off the inclusionary housing obligations that clearly applied to the project?
Something significant is missing in Rubio's breathless, self-promoting campaign announcement. Each requirement that's being temporarily amended was put there for a reason. Portland being Portland, it's highly likely that the reason was spelled out in great detail by the city bureaucracy as part of the approval process. In each case, this action signals that increasing the housing supply is, for the moment, a more important policy objective than the goals behind the requirement. In other words, it's a trade off.
What's missing in Rubio's piece is any mention of a process for evaluating the amendments, determining whether they have advanced the goal of producing more housing and, if so, to what extent. Now, that information may be buried in one of the supporting documents. If it is, Rubio or whoever on her staff did the actual work of putting the Substack message together should have mentioned it in this public-facing announcement. If something as elementary as evaluating the initiative escaped the attention of the many people who worked on these amendments, then it shows that it's still amateur hour at City Hall.
Also, no matter what Ibram X. Kendi says, past discrimination does not justify present reverse discrimination. The provisions of the Fair Housing Act, which prohibit discrimination on the basis of race and color (among other things) in renting and advertising housing, apply to publicly funded affordable housing.
Arab/Muslim Americans are treated less than animals! We are called Sand N…
We are being prosecuted on a daily basis! High tech lynching, institutionally racism! Especially for Arab women!!
Oregon late A.G. Dave Frohnmayer had my SS# blocked & prevented me from getting employed, made me homeless and jobless!
Dave Frohnmayer was the one who started & initiated the fraud of Foreclosed houses & taking over our homes!
His bank robber, late Rep. Bob Ackerman, Doug McCool, UO Prof. Margaret Hallock. Hired Scarlet Lee/Barnhart Associates. Forged my family’s signature. Gave our fully paid Condo to the thief Broker Bob Ogle, his mom Karen Ogle was working in the USA Consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. She administered the power of attorney to have my sister's signature and added her son to the deed. Sold without my signature!
Bob Ackerman had never responded to the Summon from the Court, and the sheriff never served me or arrested him either!!
This is what kind of criminal government we have in Oregon!!
Arrest Rep. Bob Ackerman, Doug McCool, Broker Bob Ogle, his mom Karen Ogle, Scarlet Lee/Barnhart Associates, UO Prof. Margaret Hallock, Wells Fargo
D.A. Doug Harcleroad, D.A. Alex Gardner told me they have NO JURISDICTION on Frohnmayer! Oregon criminal Officials are complicit with these crimes against me!
Both EPD, Lane County Sheriff Dept. and the FBI had been told to step down from investigating the bank robber Rep. Bob Ackerman & the rest of Lane County Criminal Officials are complicit with him!
I ran five times for public offices! Voter Fraud & Sedition by Lane County government to protect & cover up for the two criminals Frohnmayer & Ackerman!!
The Oregon government is complicit with their crimes!!
Just like our Oregon Criminal Officials such Gov. Brown, Rep. Nathanson, Sen. Floyd Prozanski etc.. with the help of Wells Fargo. who are covering up for the most criminal Official: Late Frohnmayer, late Rep. Bob Ackerman who stole my Fully paid Condo!
My social Security # is BLOCKED at the Employment office, for more than FOUR years NOW. I can't sign in to look for a job! This had happened after my name was cleared from the fabricated criminal record that was done by the criminal late Dave Frohnmayer!
Gov.Kate Brown Appointed 100 Judges.She made sure before she leaves, she appointed TWO more Judges to cover her back!
Arrest Gov. Brown, Rep. Nathanson & the Rest of Oregon Criminal Officials who are complicit with the Most Criminal Officials late Frohnmayer, late Rep. Ackerman!
OR. late A.G. Frohnmayer had deleted all records in L.C. It shows I'd changed my name to Nadia Sindi.Left old name Faika Sindi.Changed letters to Saika Findi! Frohnmayer has trapped me in a criminal record since 1987!
Number 1 fix to racial problems in Portland and nationally is for leadership to have the balls to reach out to Blacks,Hispanics and yes, white men and look them in the eyes and tell them they can fix their problems themselves by encouraging their societies to have their men, man up, go home and raise their children.

Love that you’re keeping your eye on the ball, Carmen! Thanks!
