Detox Center Next to Portland Elementary Moves Forward

(Portland, OR) -- A new detox center planned beside Gilbert Heights Elementary has been cleared to move forward under a new state law requiring cities to allow treatment facilities in residential areas. Rose City Detox, which will run the center, says it will not accept sex offenders, violent offenders, or walk-ins, stressing that operations will be by appointment only with safety as the priority. Some neighbors have raised concerns about its location next to the school's playground. City officials say residents who submitted comments will be notified of the decision.
