After their success with last week's sidewalk picnics, the now 340-strong Facebook group that says "The Sit/Lie Ordinance is Unconstitutional. Really. Stop Trying to Fix it," is organizing a city hall phone in hour, starting at noon:
Take ten minutes during the noon hour on Monday and call your city commissioners. With over 300 people in this group if we all call hopefully we can let the city commissioners know all 300 reasons that they should not renew the Sit/lie ordinance. Be sure to THANK Commissioner Randy Leonard for his ongoing opposition to the Sit/Lie ordinance and POLITELY ENCOURAGE the other council members to follow Randy's lead and ask them to let the Sit/Lie ordinance die.

Call and ask to speak to the commissioner at the following numbers:

Mayor Sam Adams - (503) 823-4120
Commissioner Randy Leonard - (503) 823-4682
Commissioner Dan Saltzman - (503) 823-4151
Commissioner Nick Fish - (503) 823-3589
Commissioner Amanda Fritz - (503) 823-3008

Call each of them and let them know your name, phone number and mailing address and ask for a response from the commissioner. Be firm but polite.


The event already has 47 "confirmed guests."

Delusions.
They're not trying to renew it, it was ruled unconstitutional.

And since there are only so many phone lines into city hall, wouldn't this constitute a Denial of Service attack on our government?
