Lisa Strader, PBOT ADA Coordinator will provide a presentation of the main elements of the plan. This plan is intended to define how PBOT will verify all non-compliance in the public right-of -way and the methods PBOT will use to bring those elements into compliance over the life of the plan. As the advisory board most connected to pedestrian activity on Portland’s public right of way, your review and comment on this draft plan is important and appreciated.
