Portland Police Bureau redistricting effort draws east Portland ire

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

Public meetings are being planned to let citizens in on the Portland Police Bureau’s plans for redistricting, and that includes east Portland’s East Precinct.

Neighbors with the Madison South Neighborhood Association have been given some advanced notice concerning the changes, and apparently their portion of east Portland will be redistricted – out of the East Precinct. Some of those members are unhappy with the plans.

The first public meeting of city officials and the PPB for citizens to view proposed boundary changes, learn about redistricting recommendations and provide feedback regarding changes to the PPB East Precinct will be held Tuesday, Jan. 15, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the Banfield Corporate Office, 8000 N.E. Tillamook St.
