Minimizing Damage from Measure 37
Maria Thi Mai
Oregon voters passed Measure 37 in November, 2004 and shortly after Sam was sworn in, he was poised to take a close look at how the City would address claims. He introduced and Council passed an ordinance to establish a filing fee and create a private right of action and a resolution to review funding and nontransferability of waiver.
So far, Council has only approved two M37 claims: one zoning change in St. John's and a Comprehensive Plan Designation change in SW Portland.
