Correction
The address for Perch Furniture was incorrect in the November-December newsletter. The correct address is 4519 NE Fremont St. The editor regrets this error.
Looking for Board & Committee Updates?
We’ll save you the energy! Timing and other difficulties kept the BWNA Board & Committee Updates from making this edition; we hope to include this information in future newsletters.
Readers interested in committee updates and details about what took place at the November board retreat and November and December board meetings can find this information on the BWNA website. Board actions taken during those meetings include approving a social media policy, adding an Events Committee, and approving two neighborhood traffic safety proposals put forth by a board member.
At the December general meeting, a representative from Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) provided an update on the NE Alameda and Fremont diverter, a PBOT pilot project.
December meeting minutes will be posted sometime after board approval at BWNA’s January board meeting.
