Approximately 200 Portlanders attended the informational panel event on June 11th at Concordia University.  Organizers created a Resource Page on the topic of Infill, Demolition, and Housing Affordability.  We also included a video of the forum, the panelists' presentation materials, and other related resources.  We compiled all of the questions submitted by the audience and hope to have the answers posted on the Resource Page in the next couple of weeks. Once more we would like to thank our panelists, the Office of Neighborhood Involvement, Concordia University, Portland Community Media, Resolutions NW volunteers, and the Portland Bureau of Planning and Sustainability District Planning for helping to make the event a success!
