TCWC believes that development related to athletics and watershed conservation can be achieved in tandem with one another. We hope to see a project rooted in community partnership that weighs the importance of natural resource protection and considers the downstream impacts on watershed health. For those interested in respectfully communicating concerns about the proposed project to BDS planners and Portland Public Schools Board members ahead of the public hearing on October 4th, below is a list of informational documents and contacts.
