(Portland, OR) -- An advisory group tied to Gov. Tina Kotek's Central City Task Force is urging major changes to local tax programs after data showed more high-income residents leaving Portland. The group recommends pausing or restructuring the Preschool for All tax, redirecting surplus Clean Energy Fund dollars, and lowering housing services tax rates. Members say the city must restore public trust by making taxes more transparent and better managed. Some community representatives opposed parts of the plan, warning it could undermine equity goals.
