AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Data Center Politics: Wilsonville is weighing how (and where) data centers could fit into its Basalt Creek industrial plan, with staff pushing draft parameters that would limit standalone builds and require conditional use. Public Safety & Accountability: A Clackamas County Jail death case is back in the spotlight after new video shows Gerlinde Spring Lynch repeatedly saying “I can’t breathe” while being restrained; prosecutors declined criminal charges, but the family is pursuing civil claims. Cyber Oversight: Sen. Ron Wyden is urging a GAO probe into how federal agencies buy and use commercial hacking tools, focusing on privacy and constitutional safeguards. Law Enforcement Standards: Oregon’s DPSST oversight board recommended temporarily declaring Umatilla County Sheriff Terry Rowan ineligible for law enforcement duties after a DUI case. Water & Drought: Three Sisters Irrigation District cut deliveries again to 10% amid creek declines, warning shutoffs could follow if allotments are exceeded. Local Governance: Grant County voted to surrender a long-missing portion of Third Street to John Day and approved a Title III funds coordinator contract. Health Policy: OHSU researchers report Oregon’s regulated psilocybin services are linked to major drops in anxiety, depression, and PTSD symptoms with low rates of severe adverse events. Wildfire Response: U.S. Rep. Cliff Bentz held a Klamath-area fire town hall, highlighting recovery needs after the Wrights Spring fire.
