1000 FRIENDS OF OREGON




                         2
PORTLAND’S QUALITY OF LIFE
HOW DID PORTLAND BECOME
PORTLAND? (the version we know)
• Just an ordinary city in the 1960s
• State land planning legislation passed in
  1973
• Not well enforced until founding of 1000
  Friends of Oregon in 1975 by Republic
  Governor Tom McCall and
  environmentalist Henry Richman
1000 FRIENDS OF OREGON:
AN ALLIANCE OF DISPARATE INTERESTS

• Alliance of environmental, small
  business, and agricultural interests
• Constant negotiation and compromise
1000 FRIENDS OF OREGON:
           FOCAL ISSUES
• Governance: 1) multi-scalar governance,
  2) elected metro council,
  3) citizen participation
• Transportation: 1) transit, 2) walking,
  3) biking, 4) link land use and transport
• Economics: 1) manage growth efficiently,
  2) promote quality of life, 3) preserve
  farmland, 4) neighbourhood business
PORTLAND METRO POLICIES
• Stop building freeways
• Spend on light rail, streetcars, bicycle
  routes
• Manage metro growth through efficient
  land use, environmental safeguards,
  transit, and attractiveness (sound
  economic development, not anti-growth)
• Use growth boundary to guide re-
  investment inward

METRO PORTLAND’S URBAN
   GROWTH BOUNDARY
LESSONS OF 1000 FRIENDS
• Is Portland perfect? No, it’s not
• Can citizens take charge and turn around
  their city and region? Yes, they can!
• Broad, and even unlikely, alliances are
  needed
• Multi-scalar governance—provincial,
  regional, and municipal must be
  addressed
