Who lobbied whom, and about what?
The Port of Portland logged the most contacts with city staff—more 30 sit-downs, phone calls, e-mails and public forum testimonials—to talk mostly about West Hayden Island, but also the airport and other issues. They reported spending $1,565.
Also reporting dough spent? The Portland Business Alliance, with $1,289. Their president, Sandra McDonough, sat down with Mayor Sam Adams once in April and again in May to talk about economic development issues. The Alliance also had chats with officials about budget cuts and, in a session with Commissioner Randy Leonard, the city's sidewalk rules.
The League of Women Voters e-mailed the commissioners, the mayor Sam Adams and City Auditor LaVonne Griffin-Valade in mid-June to share thoughts about the Police Review Board.
(These are summaries just from "registered lobbyist entities," keep in mind. So it's not a full accounting of who came to see city officials with concerns. Take a look at officials' calendars if you want more information about who's pulling the levers of power.)
