The state needs to just allow the City of Portland to annex the Damascus area. These crazies obviously can't self-govern. There have been so many pubic involvement meetings and opportunities to date that these accusations of exclusion are beyond ludicrous. I doubt the City of Portland would want this mess of a place, but at least something would get done. Who knows how many millions have been spent attempting to govern this place with no results.
