We need to address climate change and the housing crises at the same time! Our land-use laws protect agricultural and forest land and encourage new housing development in places already connected to public transportation, utilities and access to goods and services. This forum will cover proposed legislation on barriers to new housing development within our urban growth boundaries. We wish to improve legislative solutions in the upcoming session. Join speakers Bob Sallinger, Willamette Riverkeepers, Mary Kyle McCurdy, 1000 Friends of OR and Ariel Nelson, League of Oregon Cities.
