Lottery sales tanked when the pandemic hit, but now have risen sharply; on pace to end 2020 with more annual sales than 2019.
Gov. Kate Brown wants to resurrect more than 30 projects costing more than $200 million that died last summer when the state bond market collapsed during business shutdowns ordered to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
Brown s 2021-23 budget proposal includes Oregon Lottery bonds set aside for projects in nearly every corner of the state.
The projects include $5 million for the Beaverton Hoops YMCA program; $3.5 million to renovate Parrott Creek Child and Family Services in Oregon City; $2.33 million for a health center at Reynolds High School; $2 million for pedestrian connectors in Sherwood; $2 million for the Gradin Sports Park in Gresham; $2 million for the Hacienda CDC Las Adelitas Housing in Portland; and $1.5 million for the new Patricia Reser Center for the Arts in Beaverton.
