In 2013 the Oregon House of Representatives and the Senate approved legislation assigning the coordinated population forecasting to the Population Research Center (RC) at Portland State University (PSU). This action eliminates the need for an entire chapter of the Comprehensive Plan dedicated to population forecasting and demographics. The contents of this chapter will be retained for historic context until such time the city can begin a public process to update the Comprehensive Plan. New policies on population forecasting will be located in the new Housing Chapter 5.
