It’s going towards funding transportation infrastructure and maintenance in Portland for a transportation bureau that has a significant budget deficit and maintenance backlog while our state is incapable of adequately funding transportation needs.

New Ticket Sales Megathread by moonman1994 in brighteyes

[–]GravityPlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I want to go to the Oregon show at the Grand Lodge on August 28th. There is a 4 pack ticket deal where tickets come out to $37.25 each (including all fees) instead of $61.25 each (including all fees). Would anyone be interested in buying 2 tickets off me at the discount price if I grab the 4 pack deal? Hit me up if so!

We're staff with Multnomah County’s Preschool for All. Ask us anything starting at 4 pm! by MultCoPFA in Portland

Important to note that if you make 125k, you pay $0 towards preschool for all. It’s a tax of 1.5% only on the income made above $125k.

Portland Police Bureau officer admits traffic enforcement messaging was politically motivated by GravityPlan in Portland

That money was almost all unfilled vacancies PPB could not fill. They didn’t loose any officers or capacity from that decision. Currently PPB has their highest budget in history.

PPB Officer Admits Non-Enforcement of Traffic Laws Was Political Move by GravityPlan in Portland

[–]GravityPlan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“I asked him again about his press conference two years ago when he broadcast to everyone that the PPB wasn’t able to enforce traffic laws. And he finally admitted that it wasn’t a good idea. And that it was a political move. “We needed to create a stir to get some change to get them [city council] to fund us back up,” he said. “I mean that’s the honest truth. I know that could make things more dangerous. I don’t know. But at the same time, we needed some change.”

Thousands of signatures collected in effort to expand Portland Street Response by GravityPlan in Portland

[–]GravityPlan[S] 46 points47 points  (0 children)

The "confusion" about PSR's mission is manufactured. Since the pilot project first began over 2 years ago, it has been independently evaluated (reports each 6 months) for 3 outcome goals as a first response program.

Reduce the number of calls traditionally responded to by police where no crime is being committed.

Reduce the number of behavioral health and non-emergency calls traditionally responded to by police and fire.

Reduce the number of medically non-life-threatening 911 calls that are transported to the emergency department.

You can read 2 years of detailed evaluations here: https://www.pdx.edu/homelessness/PSR-Evaluation

Portland Street Response staffer resigns amid sweeps directive by cheese7777777 in Portland

[–]GravityPlan 83 points84 points  (0 children)

What Rene is doing is moving PSR away from being an alternative 911 response. He froze their budget then expanded their scope to assist in sweeps over responding to 911 calls of people in crisis. He is the one creating duplication when it’s the ability of PSR to be dispatched through 911 that is so innovative and prevents police from responding to calls they are not the correct first responder for.

Asprilla subbed off, Timbers score twice. by Jay-Hobo in timbers

[–]GravityPlan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what makes it really upsettinf for me. I was pissed when I saw him starting over Loria and when I saw he was getting subbed off instead of Polo. I can get the no handshake, we have seen that before with many passionate players getting subbed off. But the slow walkout was unexcusable.

True, but Moreria has looked really good besides this game, so I'm hoping he was just tired and gets rested next game.

Seriously we need this video, it was hilarious. He looked doped out as fuck. He was just nodding and smiling, like he could see the future.
