Mayor Helen Berg Speaks Out Against Measure 37 in the Corvallis Gazette Times _____________________________________________________

"Because M37 is unaffordable, because of unknown consequences in the court system, because it would undermine Oregon's land use laws and local zoning authority, and because it is not in either your or your neighborhood's best interests, the Corvallis City Council has resolved to oppose the passage of Measure 37, and urges all Corvallis citizens to vote "No" on Measure 37. I strongly support the council's resolution."

Helen Berg, Mayor of Corvallis.
