When: Thu Oct 10, 2013 6:30-7:30PM |
Limited seating is available at this meeting. RSVP at 503-618-2247.
The City is hosting a series of town hall meetings this fall to continue its Invest in Gresham discussion with the community about funding critical police and fire services, including the possibility of a voter-approved levy in May 2014.
Because of Oregon’s statewide property tax restrictions and Gresham’s low $3.61 permanent property tax rate, the City is at a defining moment in its ability to provide the level of essential police and fire services this rapidly growing, urban city needs.
Last fall the Gresham City Council established a temporary fee as an interim solution to maintain police, fire and park service levels through June 2014. With expiration of that $7.50-per month fee less than a year away, the process of a potential levy to stabilize funding for public safety long term starts now.

Penumbral Lunar EclipseWhen: Fri Oct 18, 2013 3PM-7PM PT |
The full moon will dip into Earth's shadow tonight October 18th, producing a lunar eclipse that can be seen by keen observers.
With tonights perfect weather, skywatchers will get the chance to observe part of the southern portion of the moon passing into Earth's penumbra — the planet's outer shadow.
The shading will be subtle, but during the penumbral lunar eclipse, the moon will be partially in shadow for about four hours with the time of deepest eclipse occurring at 7:50PM EDT (4:50PM PT). At that moment, the Earth's outer shadow will cover 76.5 percent of the lunar disk.
