I am listening to your program and it (prostitution) really is an important topic. I am so disgusted by what is happening to our neighborhood. (Roseway) I see prostitutes in the morning when I go to work just a half block from my home. I see more when I come home from work. It's so our of hand since the end of the zone. If Mayor Potter thinks that putting the "zone" back in place...only displaces the problem. Where was this problem before?...I do not remember a neighborhood complain or this topic on the front page of the paper, or OPB having this topic on the radio before the zone was abolished. So if it would just displace this problem to other neighborhoods...let's do just that, rotate the problem to all of Portland's neighborhoods, like Irvington, or Ladd's or Laurelhurst. Then... then someone might think it's NOT okay to have this open sex industry in our yards...on streets..or schools. Why is it OKAY to be in Montavilla or Roseway?
Thank you.
