An e-mail forward from neighborhood association doyenne Bonny McKnight, via East Portland Neighborhood Office’s Teresa Hatfield, urging us to take a survey from the Mt. Hood Cable Regulatory Commission follows.

“Mt Hood Cable Regulatory Committee can be a resource we don’t get much from right now but can be a great outreach partner if we would explore how to use it. We should fill out the survey to let them know how we can use it on behalf of our Neighborhood Associations in our individual roles as members/officers/etc.

“Please take a few minutes to do the survey.  The deadline for us to meet is December 18.

On Thursday, December 10, 2009, The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners will conduct a public hearing to recommend designations for Urban and Rural Reserves in Multnomah County.  The hearing will take place at 10:30 a.m. in Board Hearing Room 100 at the Multnomah Building, 501 S.E. Hawthorne Blvd.

The Board will hear public testimony and adopt a resolution authorizing Commissioner Jeff Cogen and staff to forward recommendations for urban and rural reserve designations in Multnomah County to the effort’s “Core 4” representatives.
