Portland To Review Expiring Tree Protection Rules
(Portland, OR) -- Portland City Council is set to review the city's expiring tree protection amendment this week. Council members will meet tomorrow to review Portland's "Large Tree Amendment." The amendment increased fees for the removal of larger trees, and officials say it led to a nearly 70-percent drop in removals of large trees since it was implemented in 2016. The Bird Alliance of Oregon is campaigning in favor of extending the protections.
