Information From the City of Portland
Kim Kosmas, Senior Public Education Officer, with Portland Fire & Rescue (PFD) came to speak to us about wildfire preparedness and PFD’s Firewise program at this year’s annual meeting. As a 28-year veteran of the PFD, Kim’s presentation was very informative and well received. As she stated during the meeting, given our changing environment with lower rainfall and drier/hotter summers, it is not a matter of if a wildfire occurs, it’s a matter of when.
Eastridge Park Homeowners’ Association is located in a wildfire hazard zone within the City of Portland. Portland Fire & Rescue, through its Firewise program, offers FREE exterior home assessments to help homeowners mitigate potential fire hazards. We encourage homeowners to sign up.

| Change of Procedure |
|
The ACC has moved to an electronic process for project reviews. Please complete and submit the Project Review form online. Once you complete the form, an email will be sent to the Architectural Control Committee (ACC). An ACC member will arrange a site visit, if necessary, and may request that you forward appropriate drawings, plans and information regarding your specific project. Your request will then be reviewed by the ACC for approval. It is recommended that property owners review the CC&Rs as they apply to your specific project request. Construction projects must adhere to Construction Noise Regulations, Monday through Saturday, 7am-6pm. Homeowners are responsible for obtaining any city permits required; the ACC may request to see the approved permits as a condition of approval.
A Word version of the Project Review Form can be requested by emailing an ACC member or through the "Contact Us" page.
