Portland Oregon Crooks and Thieves Water Bureau edition

 

Hat Tip KATU and Dan Tilkin

Plans to replace the dilapidated mobile home that used to house the caretaker - a double-wide that was purchased for $79,950 in 2007, by the way - were approved amid fireworks from Portland city council members Randy Leonard and Amanda Fritz.
A sample exchange from their debate:
Fritz: “What are we buying for $460,000?”
Water Bureau administrator David Shaff: “Just that, a house.”
Fritz: “A nice house. How about what are we buying … ”
Leonard: “I think that's uncalled for. If you want to ask questions that are professional and have answers, I appreciate that. But question that are impugning the bureaus integrity or anybody else is uncalled for and that's playing to the audience.”
Fritz: “I don't comment on your behavior, and I would appreciate the same courtesy.”
It’s certainly not the first controversial project for the Water Bureau; in fact, it’s not even the first controversial house….

And the Hits keep on coming

The beat goes on … Portland Oregon crooks and politicians.

It’s been a rough twelve months for Portland’s administrative and financial branch of government.

The list of major issues is lengthy. Since fall 2012, problems involving the Office of Management & Finance include:

This is something we need in Portland…

We are always looking for ways European-ize Portland...  And this is for once very appealing..

Rats leavung a Shrinking Ship??? Kurt Schrader, Peter DeFazio part ways with Democratic leaders on health insurance bill | OregonLive.com

 Rats leaving the Sinking Ship???

Schrader and DeFazio are the two Democrats in the delegation who face potentially competitive reelection races next year, and they have both been more apt to criticize the president than other Democrats in the delegation.

DeFazio said in a statement that he has always been willing to support "common sense fixes" to the Affordable Care Act and that "he joined with Democrats and Republicans to make it easier for Oregonians who like their insurance plan to keep that plan."

Schrader expressed similar sentiments, saying in a statement that it would help "provide folks who have lost their existing insurance plans with some certainty for the time being."

Sure Sam...

 The Portland Bureau of Emergency Management, responsible for facilitating a quick and safe response to disasters, has released this video that takes a look at how bikes played a role in New York’s recovery from Super Storm Sandy. Jonathan Maus, of BikePortland.org, describes how “resilient and flexible using bicycles” is. 

Hoping for some Change

  The people in charge should be kicked out and required to personally pay this money back...
"
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers cannot produce about $1 billion of receipts for fuel and other supplies it bought in Iraq using Iraqi money, a government investigation has found.
The total amount of funds unaccounted for has now reached a staggering $7 billion, officials say — and they warn that the Iraqi government is likely to demand at least some of that money back.
The United States has been managing billions of dollars of Iraqi money through the U.N.-created Development Fund for Iraq (DFI)"

 UN is running our policy?

Vancouver Avenue Bridge

Construction update

The Vancouver Ave Bridge is nearing completion, but weather has delayed concrete work and street paving.  Additional curb and sidewalk have recently been added to the project to improve pedestrian connectivity to the future Columbia Slough Recreational Trail on the north bank of the slough.  For the safety of both construction crews and the public, we prefer to wait until these improvements are complete before opening the bridge. 

UPDATE: Although there may be further delays due to weather, we hope to have the bridge open the first week in April 2011.
