@GraybushPDX ...to spiders and mosquitoes!

Hillsboro's Parks and Recreation Commission isn't pleased with how the city handled plans to build a new baseball stadium. Current and former members called it a "done deal" before they ever had a chance to weigh in.

@Notteham @troydshinn @HillsboroNT I just shared my thoughts here.

@HillsboroNT And my last thought, let's not forget the City still owes more than $6,000,000 on the existing sports complex according to this fiscal year's budget.

@HillsboroNT There are a lot of projects proposed in the Hillsboro 2035 Community Plan that these funds could go towards. I don't remember anyone asking for a new Hops stadium.

@HillsboroNT I'm curious to know what other options were presented to council to spend the next 8-10 years of local Transit Lodging Taxes on? Here's some background on what it could be spent on.

Local Transient Lodging Tax: - Travel Oregon | Industry https://t.co/lNSoxkPkNr

@HillsboroNT Or marketing for Downtown to be a destination for tourism - so many of us live here because of the variety of activities and destinations nearby, why wouldn't tourists do the same?

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@HillsboroNT Or more public art throughout the city?

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@HillsboroNT Or a boutique hotel in Downtown.

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@HillsboroNT I obviously have a bias to advocate for investment in Downtown, but how about a trail/pedestrian connection from Downtown/TriMet lines to Jackson Bottom Wetlands.

From @brotherjones_ on the ground in Nashville— the Tennessee legislator is planning to expel lawmakers who stood with gun control advocates today.

They have been stripped from committee assignments and their member ID’s have been shut off.

THIS IS NOT DEMOCRACY.

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@thethethumbcat @hostiledesign I agree. Can we install these floor cars that try to run red lights instead?

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@C_Pritchard @the_transit_guy The Olympics would be fun!

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@the_transit_guy Portland with as much hipster and weekend warrior as you can squeeze in. Powell's, Rose Festival, Soccer City, Rip City, rock climbing, a river through it, breweries, fixie bikes to ride around, organic urban farm (with goats of course), Darcelle's drag show...

Standing tall (50 ft) and beautiful, is the statue Dignity, located in Chamberlain, South Dakota.

@HowtoADHD @Real_Theresa And the real special ones are the ones that are both! ❤️

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@HowtoADHD @Real_Theresa I basically have 2 types of friends: (1) proximity friends that I work with, live by, or see frequently because of a hobby/activity overlap & (2) nonjudgmental friends that love me for who I am (unmasked) and with whom I can pick back up wherever we last left off.

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@aubrieintheopen @ItsEmilyKaty I'm sorry you have to jump through hoops to be you, but happy you have a supportive boss!

[Elisa Joy Payne @GranolaCrunchy]

@ksyers @HowtoADHD Yes! I have a bilateral music list on Spotify for this purpose!
