Cuts to Portland’s inspection program Support safe housing and livable neighborhoods! Portland City Council needs to continue to fund the Neighborhood Inspections Program to address unsafe housing and neighborhood livability. Any decrease in the level of inspections will only force marginalized Portlanders to stay in deteriorating and unsafe housing conditions such: faulty wiring, overflowing dumpsters, inadequate heating, broken appliances, mold and pest infestations and harborage. Please contact the Mayor and Commissioners and voice your support for this critical effort!
