Summary
Portland’s new free splash pad is already a hit with families, offering affordable fun as the city gears up for growth. Voters approved a half-cent sales tax hike to fund parks, public safety, and road repairs — set to begin July 1 — bringing in $1.4 million annually without raising property taxes. It’s a community-focused move designed to keep up with rising demand while keeping costs down for residents. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
