City of Portland, Ore.
LEWISTON — The city could install a permanent public restroom in a downtown location later this year if funding is approved by the Lewiston City Council.
During a workshop this week, a majority of the council appeared in favor of an option to pursue a permanent public bathroom structure, known as the “Portland Loo,” or a similar style, which have become popular with municipalities.
As of now, $131,000 toward the project is included in next year’s Capital Improvement Plan, which is on course to be approved by the council later this month.
