Coffee Break Series: Metro Gov't Councilors Hwang and Simpson

Join us on October 21 as we welcome Metro Councilors Duncan Hwang and Ashton Simpson to the Central Eastside. While Councilor Hwang represents the Central Eastside, Councilor Simpson oversees neighboring East Portland—both play key roles in shaping our region’s future.

Metro’s decisions directly impact the Central Eastside—from land use and regional planning to the Supportive Housing Measure, which funds much of Multnomah County’s houselessness response. This is a valuable opportunity to share our district’s perspective and build relationships with the Metro regional government. 

  • Councilor Hwang’s priorities include: Supportive Housing for Homelessness, the 2024 Growth Management Decision, and the future of the Expo Center.

  • Councilor Simpson’s priorities include: the Affordable Housing Bond, Supportive Housing for Homelessness, the Urban Growth Boundary, and the Climate Smart Strategy.  

Your voice helps ensure the Central Eastside stays represented in regional policy decisions.

Act fast! Coffee Break events are limited to 30 guests.
