With $15 million in revenue from the Portland Clean Energy Community Benefits Fund at play, a myriad of ideas on how to spend it have emerged. As expected, the ‘Bikeable Portland’ plan, received a strong pitch at the meeting today. Congressman Earl Blumenauer, Portland Public Schools Board Member Stephanie Engelsman, and the plan’s architect — veteran Portland Bureau of Transportation Bicycle Coordinator Roger Geller. As for the Bikeable Portland plan, Morillo wasn’t impressed. The $15 million is still in play and what it ends up funding is undecided.
