Overlook Neighborhood Association Mulls Homeless Membership




OPB's Think Out Loud show

Summary: The Overlook Neighborhood Association met on Tuesday to address a proposal to restrict membership to people with a legal home address in the neighborhood. Some have argued that this revision would exclude homeless people. After Portland’s Office of Neighborhood Involvement threatened to revoke formal recognition of the Overlook Neighborhood Association if the proposal passed, the board decided not to introduce it for a vote. We hear from Overlook Neighborhood Association chair Chris Trejbal.
