town. Officials say it would be best used for a multi-use development, including single- and multi-family housing, public facilities, and commercial and industrial sites.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The record-high temperatures and salmon deaths led conservationists and fishing groups to sue the federal government. Now, a judge has ruled the Environmental Protection Agency must develop a plan to protect threatened and endangered salmon
and steelhead from dangerously warm rivers.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">City housing officials are proposing big changes to a year-and-a-half-old program known as "inclusionary housing." The approach requires developers to include rent-restricted units in large housing developments, which the city hopes will
create a pipeline of affordable apartments in some of the city's most desirable neighborhoods.<o:p></o:p></p>

for Position 7. The pair were joined by Jim Whitbeck, who is running unchallenged for Position 6 but wanted to give his input on pressing issues and to introduce himself to the community.<o:p></o:p></p>

Chief Chambers. Experts say the melting snow during the spring and summer months is what really keeps us out of the dry conditions. That’s why we need a consistent amount of water going through our streams, lakes, and rivers…and that comes from the snowpack
during the winter months.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

at bearing the brunt of the fossil fuel economy, and not seeing the benefit of Portland’s clean-energy transition in their communities,” says Tony DeFalco, Verde’s deputy director. The PCEF specifically targets companies in the Portland area that make more
than $500,000 in revenue locally and more than $1 billion nationally, and would require that they pay a 1% surcharge on a fee they already pay to operate in Portland.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
