River District URA: Public Participation

All committee meetings are open to the public. The River District Urban Renewal Advisory Committee (URAC) meets monthly to discuss project prioritization and to make funding recommendations to the Portland Development Commission. Meetings are generally held on the second Tuesday of the month, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m

How to Get Involved

The URACs represent a diverse composition of URA and citywide stakeholders. Members are often drawn from neighborhood and business associations, non-profit organizations, project partners, business owners and representatives, citywide civic groups, and citizens at large. URAC members are appointed by the PDC Board of Commissioners to represent a broad range of interests.

The Commission is always looking for new community members who may be interested in serving on PDC advisory committees, whether the focus is on a specific urban renewal area, project or program.
