Thanks for being so welcoming! Looking forward to doing some cleaning projects! Thank you Allen! 19:17:43 From Albert Kaufman : Hope, consider joining our board :) 19:19:09 From Amanda Gonser : ++ to the awesome newsletter - great work! 19:22:07 From Hope Townsell : I did see on the agenda that the “Cleaning/Safety” spot was open, that is something I would be interested in! I love and care about this neighborhood and city and want to see it improve! 19:22:07 From Allen - RNA : If we do a May meeting, the Board needs to announce that at the March 8 mtg. Then, the April 12 mtg is the deadline to announce your candidacy. A 350 word candidate statement can be submitted 3 weeks before the May 10 election. Board positions are 2 years. We have 15 board seats 19:25:09 From Allen - RNA : Do you mean the Richmond Cleanup? 19:26:03 From Heather Flint Chatto : I love that idea Debby and really appreciated the SWOT Assessment. We are making progress on the survey as well. 19:26:33 From Hope Townsell : Yes the Cleanup! 19:27:37 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : I’ve been attending some Sunnyside Safety and Liveability meetings. They are doing some cool grass roots things to support the houseless. I’m learning a lot, and we could piggyback/partner with them. 19:28:22 From Heather Flint Chatto : Good idea Maddie. I look forward to learning more. 19:28:39 From Jules Barron : What kind of things are Sunnyside Safety doing? 19:29:17 From Amanda Gonser : I’ve taken the courses for NET online and was interested in getting involved with it for the Richmond neighborhood, but didn’t see a standing meeting on the website - is Amanda Westervelt the lead for that? Should I reach out to her to get more involved? 19:29:49 From Allen - RNA : Yes, Amanda is the Richmond NET lead 19:30:17 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : Organizing showers, trash pickup (coordinating with businesses, and city resources), winter gear drives, trying to learn names and understand needs 19:30:27 From M. Andre : DOGAMI 19:30:35 From Amanda Gonser : Thanks Allen - should I email to the main RNA email to get in touch with her or is her email listed somewhere? 19:30:41 From M. Andre : Dept of Geology and Mineral Industries 19:31:38 From Amanda Gonser : Happy to help distribute 19:31:56 From Jules Barron : Our camp has trash pickup on Waverleigh. 19:32:09 From Amanda Gonser to Allen - RNA(Direct Message) : amanda.gonser@gmail.com - happy to volunteer to distribute the newsletter 19:32:21 From Heather Flint Chatto : Thanks All. See you next time. Stay tuned for a Land Use Committee Meeting notice over the RNA list serve soon. 19:32:40 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : m.anderson.clark@gmail.com 19:32:50 From Hope Townsell : Happy to help distribute newsletters. I will be emailing Allen for A LOT of things! Yay for my 1st meeting! 19:33:01 From Albert Kaufman : I think Cara was down for delivering more, too. 19:33:57 From Albert Kaufman : I am imagining the survey will be a link. 19:34:13 From Allen - RNA to Amanda Gonser(Direct Message) : Cara has been assigned routes. She's very energetic about doing it 19:35:03 From Albert Kaufman : Kamal, let’s talk about that together - really, the survey can be a web link. 19:38:06 From Amanda Gonser : ++ 19:39:09 From Jules Barron : I support this! 19:39:16 From Melissa Toledo : Empty parking lots could work 19:39:29 From Amanda Gonser : I’m glad this is something we’re talking about, and support this 19:45:17 From Jules Barron : Is there a task force for state and local law enforcement to work together? is the state going to sit down with local officials and hammer out who is going to take responsibility? The state constantly states it the portland officials and portland states it is the state. 19:46:35 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : This isn’t establishing SE at all. All the neighborhoods are discussing, and trying to define what we want the parameters to be. 19:47:31 From Jules Barron : Rob, along the freeways and Powell (state owned land) there is a jurisdictional problem because the state and local law authorities don’t seem to be on the same page. Such as Powell, its a state hwy, so the portland PD states it is the state and vice versa. 19:49:03 From Hope Townsell : I am 100% with you Kamal. This is a severely deep rooted problem 19:49:10 From Amanda Gonser : Thank you for sharing your experience with homelessness Kamal 19:49:48 From Debby H : I see you, Jules! 19:49:56 From Jules Barron : Thanks! 19:50:22 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : Kamal, this is an awesome discussion. I know the Downtown NA organized an audit to get a count and try to learn names and faces 19:50:58 From Amanda Gonser : When I helped with the Census there was also a specific night for houseless community counting - so when those #s come out we may have a better idea 19:51:24 From Hope Townsell : I do ponder after living downtown, how are there so many people on the streets but so many vacant apartments, homes, and buildings. 19:52:26 From Albert Kaufman : We just had a big pickup effort @ Division and 41st 19:52:29 From Sam Cole : In 2019, the last data we have access to, the Point In Time count of people experiencing homelessness found 4015 people experiencing homelessness in Portland. That number is undoubtedly higher now. 19:52:42 From Jules Barron : We have had a homicide, not just in Laurel hurst 19:54:13 From Jules Barron : Thank you Allen!!! 19:54:30 From Amanda Gonser : +1 19:56:22 From Melissa Toledo : I have a question for Rob 20:00:35 From Jules Barron : I agree! 20:01:07 From Albert Kaufman : Is Warner Pacific having in person learning? if not… 20:02:04 From Jules Barron : What about Melissa! 20:05:44 From Jules Barron : Thank you Rob! 20:05:50 From Melissa Toledo : Thank you Rob! 20:06:37 From Melissa Toledo : Thanks everyone! 20:13:43 From Amanda Gonser : If the Board discussed improving the website, could it be a possibility that we do a 4-page printed newsletter and then have a longer pdf available online? 20:14:05 From Albert Kaufman : That’s a good idea, Amanda. 20:17:49 From Albert Kaufman : Yeah, we could get this printed online for a fraction of the price… 20:25:39 From Amanda Gonser : +1 that’s a great idea 20:25:40 From Debby H : www.oregonlegislature.gov/nosse 20:27:10 From Madeleine Anderson-Clark : Did SEUL city funding for all the associations? 20:29:12 From Amanda Gonser : +1 20:29:44 From Allen - RNA : SEUL cut overall communication funds to all 20 NAs in SE from $20,000 to $10,000 20:34:55 From Albert Kaufman : Great meeting, everyone. Nice job leading, Debby. 20:35:19 From Amanda Gonser : Thank you - so glad to have joined today! 20:35:26 From Amanda Gonser : Hahaha
