Q: Time for a few ballot initiatives:

- Cancel the current City Hall project
- End the Downtown Urban Renewal District (DTURD)
- End the Multiple-Unit Property Tax Exemption (MUPTE)
- Protect single-family neighborhoods from detrimental upzoning

It's actually not impossibly hard or expensive to get enough signatures to place an initiative measure on the ballot. Plus, if you designate it as a "protected" measure, the City Council _cannot change it_ without a public vote.

Q: How about back when black/hispanics used to live on MLK Blvd. instead of California transplants and yuppie hipsters alongside their organic food grocery chains and microbreweries?

I don't see this gentrification stuff going away. Pretty soon, all the young white people of the next generation will be making similar claims about the good old days when Portland was "weird" instead of the semi-Oakland/semi-SF situation we'll have in 10-20 years.

People in Portland are so clueless sometimes to the things that don't happen to them.

Yes
