Here's your local news at a glance for Thursday, the 31st of July.
Good morning, Oregon City.
Oregon now lets residents recycle old mattresses and box springs at designated collection sites—an effort set by Senate Bill 1576 to curb illegal dumping and reduce landfill waste.
The state requires every county with 10,000 or more residents to have one permanent site plus 25 additional sites statewide, with the Mattress Recycling Council managing the program through its Bye Bye Mattress initiative.
Local sports and business executives formed the advocacy group Rip City Forever after the Paul Allen estate announced in May that the Trail Blazers were up for sale — calling on the community to rally and secure local investment to keep the team here — as concerns over the franchise’s future grow.
