Disabled Parking in Oregon: Who’s on First?

Willamette Week, in the Score column of 12/26/07, tells us:

“Disabled drivers get a break—for six months, anyway—as the Portland City Council passes on a new state law that revokes certain privileges for people who have disabled parking permits but don’t use wheelchairs (see “Space Odyssey,” WW , Dec. 17, 2007). No luck for any of us, disabled or otherwise, dealing with malfunctioning meters.” (I blogged about it here.)

And here and here are reports from the Oregonian on the Portland City Council meeting about this issue that was held 12/19/07.
