Money measures asking voters across the greater Portland area to pay for a range of public services – from police, fire and schools to homeless response and food for children fighting hunger – drew mixed results Tuesday, with some appearing to pass and others appearing to fail.
Some measures would create new property taxes while others would maintain existing ones at current rates. They affect Portland, Lake Oswego, Lake Grove, Gresham, Sherwood, North Plains, Oregon City and Clackamas, among other communities.
