POLK STREET AT RISK-YOUR VOICE NEEDED

The City plans to close Polk Street—the only bikeway linking the Columbia Tap Trail to Downtown—cutting off key neighborhoods like the Third Ward, Eastwood, and EaDo. Despite community concerns, local officials are backing the Convention Center expansion without addressing its impact on mobility, equity, or quality of life.
📅 Thursday, Oct 16
  6 PM
📍 Frost Town Brewing – 100 N. Jackson St

We’re reviving Downtown’s long-dormant Super Neighborhood 61 to ensure residents have a real seat at the table for decisions affecting our streets, trails, and communities. With over 15,000 residents unrepresented, it’s time for a democratic, community-led voice in City Hall.
