Equal Opportunity Employer
Metro runs the Oregon Zoo,
Oregon Convention Center,
Portland Expo Center and
Portland’5 Center for the Arts
and provides services that
cross city limits and county
lines including land use and
transportation planning, parks
and nature programs, and
garbage and recycling systems.
The city of Portland approved a proposal last week to buy the Sa-
fari strip club on Southeast Powell Boulevard near Cleveland High

fordable apartments in its place. The project will cost $3.7 million and
could come from monies already allocated for affordable housing.
TriMet Violent Offender Ban
Under a new policy approved last week and that will take effect in 30
days, riders who commit a “serious physical offense,” on TriMet can
be banned from the transit system for more than six months, and in
some cases permanently. The agency’s governing board approved the
new ordinance.
Flooding in New Orleans
Louisiana’s governor declared a state of emergency in New Orleans
on Thursday as the city scrambled to repair fire-damaged equipment
at a power plant and shore up its drainage system, less than a week
after a flash flood from torrential rain overwhelmed the city’s pumping
system and inundated many neighborhoods.
Tobacco Age Raised to 21
In a major victory for health advocates and a blow to cigarette makers,
Oregon Gov. Kate Brown signed legislation last week to increase the
state’s tobacco possession age to 21. The law will take effect Jan. 1.
