Wheeler, Ryan contradict each other on Hazelnut Grove s fate February 18 2021
Funding for the North Portland tiny home community may still be on the chopping block after all.
Confusion reigned at city hall late Thursday, Feb. 18, as Commissioner Dan Ryan and Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler offered conflicting information on a long-running tiny home community s fate.
Ryan first announced an apparent about-face on Wheeler s behalf with the commissioner writing in a statement to the Tribune that Wheeler intends to provide services to Hazelnut Grove for another six months.
Almost as soon as that news broke, Wheeler s staff walked it back. I m told six months is not a firm timeline, mayoral spokesman Tim Becker said in a separate email to the Tribune as the after-office-hours uncertainty crested.
