Faithful readers of the Antiplanner will recall that loyal opponent DanS predicted that Oregon would repeal measure 37, the property rights law, by 2008. He believed so strongly that Oregon voters were fed up with the law that he offered to bet the Antiplanner, with the stakes being a dinner.
The Democratic majority in Oregon’s legislature is apparently not so confident about the mood of the voters. After all, 61 percent of voters approved measure 37. While planning proponents are pushing hard to get the legislature to amend the law, few are actually talking about repeal.
