Potter enjoyed visiting the Parkrose neighborhood and meeting local residents despite hearing a raft of complaints genially and respectfully delivered from Parkrose Business Association President Wayne Stoll.
Issues discussed with other community members included residents’ concerns about crime linked to methamphetamine production and addiction; the future of Parkrose and its prospects for redevelopment; economic development strategies and attracting businesses to Parkrose.
