Went to City Hall this am to watch the Council meeting. It was at capacity at 9:30; couldn't get in. It's great that so many Portlanders are interested enough to go in person. Now at home and hoping to see it online. 313 people watching on YouTube but there is no feed at 10:10.

Congratulations to Mayor Wilson and the Portland City Council. Looking forward to a new day in Portland.
