Dear Neighbors,
CPO #7 (your official citizen group at the county level) is sponsoring a series of community get-togethers in 2015 to begin exploring the pros and cons of Bethany becoming a part of a City. Changing our current status from being residents of Unincorporated Washington County to residents of a City raises all sorts of questions and concerns–which these meetings hope to address. This is the first time ever, such a series has been held here – so there is much to learn and it’s critical we participate and voice our needs and be open to discover the possibilities.
The series is broken down into themes. The first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 22nd at 7:00 PM and will be held at the Community Room of the new Fire Station located at 13545 NW Evergreen Street, Portland 97229 (near the intersection of Thompson & Saltzman Roads). Attached is a flyer with specific details.
Please forward this invite to all of your friends and plan to attend this meeting to help shape the future of our community. It’s an exciting time – looking forward to seeing you all soon!
All the best!
CPO7 Steering Committee
At the September 27th Board meeting a presentation was made by a group called City By Choice. The purpose of the presentation was to inform the community about changes in the near future to the area we live in. The scope was around a decision that has been involving Washington County, the Urban Growth Boundary and possible annexation of our area by either Beaverton, Hillsboro or Portland.
The group is also exploring the possibility of forming the area from Cedar Mill to Rock Creek into its own city. They would like everyone take take a survey on their web site to assist in helping to decide the future of the area we live in.
They will be holding two more COMMUNITY FORUMS to share what we’ve heard and get even more input.
You can learn more about them and their group on their web site.
