Portland Business Alliance & Downtown Portland Clean & Safe

Our vision is a Downtown Portland that is vibrant and welcoming for everyone. We advocate for city and county policies that prioritize: Increased safety and improvements to livability in the district; efforts to keep the streets and sidewalks clean in Downtown Portland; commerce and optimized use of retail space in key areas; small business support from city and marketing initiatives; keeping parks in downtown clean, safe and welcoming; supporting key partners to bolster the downtown retail ecosystem (Travel Portland, Prosper Portland, and others); and maintaining parking options for use by customers in the downtown core.  Our cleanups are hosted by the Downtown Retail Council.  A group of retail, hoteliers, and resturants who work to help create a vibrant and active Downtown and Old Town areas.
