THANK YOU to hundreds of mobile home residents and supporters who showed up wearing orange to the Planning and Sustainability Commission (PSC) hearing on Tuesday, June 12th. Together, through heartfelt testimony and visible support, we called on PCS to vote YES on a proposal to protect Portland’s 56 mobile home parks with a new zoning designation.
At the end of the meeting, the PSC postponed the vote until its July 10 meeting. The vote was delayed because Commissioners submitted several amendments that would change the proposal. St. Charles fears that the proposed amendments would seriously weaken the proposal by making it too easy for a mobile home park to be redeveloped.
We urge all mobile home residents and supporters to submit testimony to the PSC: “Adopt the original manufactured dwelling park zoning proposal and reject any amendments that make it easier to redevelop a park.”  You can submit your testimony HERE until June 22nd.
Read more about the proposal and our action to support the new zoning designation HERE.
Check out photos from the event on the Cully Mobile Home Program facebook page HERE.
And watch Mobile Home Park residents and allies testify at the PSC Hearing HERE.

GRACIAS a todos que vinieron llevando naranja a una reunión de la Comisión de Planificación y Sostenibilidad (PSC) el martes 12 de junio. Unidos, testimonios personales y honestos, y su acto de presencia, promovimos un voto de SI en una propuesta para proteger a 56 parques de casas móviles en la ciudad de Portland, por medio de una nueva designación de zonificación.
Al fin de la reunión, la PSC pospuso el voto hasta su reunión del 10 de julio. Se pospuso el voto porque unos Comisionados presentaron enmiendas para cambiar la propuesta, y la PSC quiere más tiempo para considerar estos cambios. San Carlos tiene miedo que las enmiendas propuestas pueden dañar la propuesta de zonificación por medio de hacerlo demasiado fácil que inversionistas reemplacen parques de casas móviles con otro tipo de viviendas.
Urgimos a los residentes de casas móviles y sus apoyantes para submitir testimonio al PSC: “Adopta la propuesta original de zonificación para los parques de casas móviles, y rechaza cualquier enmienda que se hace más fácil reurbanizar un parque.” Se puede submitir su testimonio AQUI hasta el 22 de junio.
 Puede leer más sobre la propuesta y nuestra acción aquí.

Y puede escuchar los testimonios de residentes de casas móviles aquí!
