Virtual / Online

Note: This community vision table is a virtual event for individuals with a chronic illness or disability, or people who care for someone with a chronic illness or disability. It is hosted in partnership with Upstream Access, a cross-disability community committed to supporting the resilience of disabled people in Oregon and Southwest Washington. Folks are welcome to attend an in-person event instead, if preferred.

What do you want to see in your community in 50 years? What are your dreams for the future?

As part of the Future 50 project, Metro is holding conversations with communities to develop aspirations for 2077 that will guide the direction of our region. We want to hear from you!

Join a community visioning table this fall to share your hopes for the future.

• Connect with other community members to help create regional aspirations for the future.
• Learn about Metro’s Future 50 project and what other community members and regional leaders are saying.
• Learn about the shared regional values that will guide the development of the vision.

Registration is required. Zoom link will be provided via email after registering. Bring your ideas, perspective and creativity. Refreshments are provided. These events are open to members of the public who live, work, go to school or spend time in the greater Portland region—including urban and rural Clackamas, Multnomah and Washington counties.

Upper Columbia United Tribes and Washington State University are co-hosting the 12th and final One River, Ethics Matter (OREM-12) conference, focusing on how we work together in a changing policy landscape.

Agendas, minutes, legislation, videos and audio recordings are available online.

Metro Council meetings, sometimes called business meetings, are when the council hears public communication on agenda items, listens to reports and presentations from staff, and takes action to vote on legislation.

Council meetings are held online and in person at the Metro Regional Center council chamber. The public is encouraged to attend all Metro Council meetings, and every meeting includes public communications, or time for the public to give their comments, either generally or on items on the agenda for the day. Public testimony may be delivered either in person or online. See the public testimony page for information on how to give your comments before or during the meeting.

If you are unable to attend a meeting live, audio and video recordings are available online within a week of each meeting.

Community members and allies are encouraged to attend.

This meeting will take place via Zoom. Registration is required to receive the Zoom link and access meeting details.

The Transportation Policy Alternatives Committee provides technical input to the Joint Policy Advisory Committee on Transportation for transportation planning and funding priorities for the region. TPAC meetings are held on the first Friday of the month unless otherwise notified.

TPAC reviews regional plans and federally funded transportation projects, and advises area leaders on transportation investment priorities and policies related to transportation. Such efforts include curbing greenhouse gas emissions and creating communities with easy access to public transit. The committee also helps identify needs and opportunities for involving the public in transportation matters.
