This coalition is impressive and growing, and I hope the policy makers are able to benefit from the work that went into the map presented this morning. It's intended to help them clarify in their own minds what's truly at stake in the decisions they're undertaking over the next few weeks, and avoid making choices that could prove disastrous for Oregon's economy and natural resources. We DO want this to continue being "The Greatest Place", not another city drained to exhaustion by suburban sprawl. Thanks for this good piece of reporting.
