  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Transit Justice for Youth in Multnomah County, Oregon: A For Youth By Youth Report Author: Bates, Lisa K. Year: 2014 In May 2014, the MYC hosted young people at our first Youth Summit for Transit Justice. In this youth-led process, we brought together youth from across the county and adult policy-makers to address our region’s transit issues. It was an important step for building youth-adult partnership to improve transit access for young people in Multnomah County. In this report, we report on the Transit Justice Summit and the youth perspective on transit fares, access, and the importance of transit justice for the success of all youth in Portland and Multnomah County. This report was created from research we conducted to learn about how youth get around, where they are going, and what problems they face when using transit. We provide a youth voice on major issues we learned about from focus groups, surveys, interviews, and discussion at the Transit Justice Summit. This is a report of young people’s experiences, and also their ideas for change. In our research and at the summit, a diverse group of young people developed ideas for how to improve transit, the built environment, and youth-police relationships. As you read the report, you will learn about our process, the summit, and the policy recommendations we’re delivering to adult policy-makers at local governments, police departments, and at TriMet. The Multnomah Youth Commission’s policy recommendations are about achieving transit justice for the youth of Multnomah County.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Harvesting Opportunity: A Strategic Vision for Farmworker Housing and Microenterprise in Washington County Author: Appenbrink, Nadine, Ansary, Raihana, Decker, Elizabeth, McQuillan, Kate, Nelson, Karla, Picha, Emily Year: 2010 Farmworkers in Washington County face stagnant incomes, limited opportunities and a shortage of affordable, quality housing. In this six month workshop project, Tierra Planning explored the connection between quality affordable housing and economic development opportunities for farmworkers in Washington County. We worked with stakeholders, regulators, landowners and farmworkers to identify barriers, opportunities and alternatives. Our final product was a "strategic vision" that included both general recommendations and recommendations specific to Washington County based on extensive research, outreach, and alternatives analysis. Our hope is that our work will spark discourse among local farmers, housing developers, and policy makers in the Portland metropolitan region and beyond by providing alternative models for integrated farmworker housing and economic development. In particular, we hope to highlight the connection between the growing local food movement and the workers who harvest local food to broaden support for the social aspects of sustainability. This project was conducted under the supervision of Sumner Sharpe and Ellen Bassett.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Wave Energy in Clatsop County, OR: An Economic Impact Analysis Author: Renfro, Jeff, Kessi, Janai, Khalid, Ayesha, O'Brien, Kyle Year: 2014 This study analyzes the economic impacts of building a wave energy commercial generation project in Clatsop County, Oregon. The modeled project is relatively small, and was produced by reviewing relevant wave energy literature and working with two local wave energy developers to estimate the expenditures and related costs of the project. We find that the construction and ongoing operation of a commercial wave energy project would create gains in employment, income, and output in the area as well as preparing Astoria for further wave energy development.
