Power in Parkrose

Mayor Tom Potter and Commissioner Randy Leonard on Charter Reform

To my knowledge, this is the ONLY event in the entire campaign where Mayor Potter has agreed to appear with someone representing opponents’ viewpoints. As noted in The Tom and Randy Show, his people specified it’s not a debate, rather a forum where two speakers will give their opinions. But still, be there, if you want some fine entertainment as well as to find out more about the Charter changes.

I confidently expect to hear the following words from Mayor Potter:
Outdated
Needs to be streamlined and modernized
Flexibility
Efficiency
Hackett Report
Water bureau billing, tram costs

From Commissioner Leonard:
Too much power
Portland is a great, special city
Access to decision-makers
Ain’t broken
Accountability
Selling park land

Be sure and whisper “Bingo!” to your neighbor once you’ve heard all twelve themes.
