State’s land-use law needs revision
No matter what you thought about Ballot Measure 49, the land-use measure approved in last week’s election, it got people talking.
Now this state needs to keep the conversation going. The best way to do that is for Oregon to revive the comatose Big Look task force.
The task force is a long-overdue rewrite of Oregon’s land-use policies. It covers transportation, the economy and housing, among other topics. It’s much broader than Measure 49.
