7:30 PM  |  FEATURE TOPIC

Significant Environmental Enhancements in Nature Park

Karen DeBaker and Shannon Huggins, Public Affairs, Clean Water Services (CWS), will describe significant environmental enhancements to be made in the Tualatin Hills Nature Park during the replacement of a 40-year-old sewer pipe. This Cedar Mill Creek Sanitary and Regional Stormwater Project began in January 2021 with tree felling and will start construction in mid-June. This two-year project will affect access and use of the trails in the nature park. Visit links below for more information.

They will also share an overview of their organization, including water resource recovery—converting waste to clean water to maintain Tualatin River health, and recover phosphorus as a commercial bi-product in the process—as well as information about their budget and other functions. 

For those who want to do a little prep for the session, Karen and Shannon highly recommend their virtual tour or story map of the process of cleaning water. Lots of interesting photos, easy to access, and will prepare you for the conversation. Also, read about the Tree for All program, where CWS has worked in partnership to plant over 14 million trees and shrubs.

8:00 PM  |  UPDATE

Enhanced Sheriff’s Patrol District Advisory Committee

Bruce Bartlett, Committee Chair, will present the variety of subjects this committee addresses. Law enforcement for the County’s Urban Unincorporated Areas is provided by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office. The Enhanced Sheriff’s Patrol District (ESPD) allows provision of this service at urban levels rather than the traditionally lower rural level (1 deputy per 1,000 residents, rather than .5 deputy) and is funded by a 5-year serial levy, up for renewal in 2022. The ESPD Advisory Committee (ESPDAC) advises the Sheriff on items of urban concern. 

8:30 PM  |  UPDATE

US Postal Service Reform Act

Since 2006, the United States Postal Service (USPS) has been burdened with a unique requirement to pre-fund its retirement program. The proposed Postal Service Reform Act would address this and other serious problems afflicting the USPS which have been created by Movement Conservative efforts to privatize the USPS. CPO 1 Vice Chair Bruce Bartlett will share the features of the bill and provide information on how you can submit testimony on it.
