(Portland, OR)  --  Portland will spend more to address the problem of homelessness.  A new budget approved yesterday by the city council will send 26-and-a-half million dollars to the Joint Office of Homeless Services.  That's one-point-four million dollars more than was in the original budget proposal.  Much of the extra money will come from unspent funds from the current fiscal year. The increase follows a spat over how much Portland and Multnomah County should each be contributing to the office.
