Project Principles

  • Accommodate known and future county facility needs.
  • Center the needs of the people most impacted by the past and current uses.
  • Create a more equitable future for one of the most racially and ethnically diverse neighborhoods in the region.
  • Support the county’s mission as a public health agency through investments in the built environment that positively impact the social determinants of health for people in the surrounding neighborhoods.
  • Sustainably support the long-term environmental and economic well being of the community.

The Vance Vision is grounded in Multnomah County values. It seeks to address past wrongs through centering the needs of the people most impacted, investing in environmental justice, and reinvigorating land cut off from the surrounding neighborhoods by past extractive uses. The Vance Vision is a guide and roadmap for future development that is equitable, community driven, and groundbreaking for Multnomah County.
