Goose Hollow Neighborhood Association Meeting Notes

Michelle, a key leader in Multnomah Libertarians sends notes from the recent Goose Hollow Neighborhood Association meeting.


There was approx 6 gun shots on the evening of Oct 19th off SW Montgomery and 13th around 10pm and neighbors called 911 in response.

Commissioner Mingus Mapps is proposing to hire 300+ more officers. They're having a vote on the budget in November. Apparently there's a monetary "surplus" in the budget.

Also 911 (and non-emergency) lines are so overwhelmed that the line will disconnect (on the non-emergency lines)

However, it's like they're encouraging the homeless to stay here. They are going to purchase bins to dispose of dirty needles with their funding via bottle returns (blue bags for bottle drop) And "outside in" is actually giving away needles.

And there's 108 tents in the Goose Hollow area (they do a monthly count).

They also want to use their bottle drop funds to one way transfer homeless to warming shelters, hospitals, and the mental health clinic on Division (when someone is experiencing a mental health crisis) during the winter months.

And Vadim Mozyrsky is planning on running against Joanne Hardesy: https://www.votevadim.com/

Also: we may not want to attend a Neighbors West/northwest meeting: https://nwexaminer.com/f/right-to-privacy

The Libertarian Party in Portland, Oregon

  The Libertarian Party is a political party that emphasizes individual liberty, free markets, and limited government intervention. While the party is often associated with national politics, its principles can also be applied at the local level. In this blog post, we will explore how the Libertarian Party could be beneficial for the city of Portland, Oregon. Portland is a city with a reputation for progressive politics, environmentalism, and social justice. While these values are important, they have also led to a highly regulated and expensive local government. For example, Portland has some of the highest taxes and fees in the state of Oregon, which can make it difficult for small businesses to thrive. Additionally, the city's housing policies, which aim to increase affordable housing, have resulted in a shortage of available housing and skyrocketing rents. The Libertarian Party offers an alternative approach to governance that could address some of these issues. Here are a few
