– Join the STNA Board! If you enjoy engaging with land use, transportation, and urban planning topics, there are two related STNA board positions coming up for election — Land Use Chair and SE Uplift Land Use and Transportation Representative. (I’ve served as land use chair for the previous two terms, so can’t be nominated this time around.) There are also a couple other open seats on the board if you want to engage some other way. Attend our board meeting on May 16 for details and to nominate yourself.

– Powell-Division Safety Improvements Project. Below is the most recent update from TriMet (from 3/21/24). I’ll update for May when I learn more:

  • Met with City of Portland staff to discuss Inter Governmental Agreement (IGA).
  • Held a series of meetings with staff from city bureaus to review and resolve comments.
  • Met with ODOT and PBOT staff to review schedule and reduce permitting delays.
  • Preparing to submit 60% plans to ODOT and PBOT on April 4.

– SE 59th Ave. and Woodward Visioning. No updates since April.

City Council approves a new land use and transportation plan for Lower SE Portland.

May updates from the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability.

As a reminder, here’s our collection of land use and transportation resources.
