OBRAland... below is one reply I received. I think PIR will go nowhere
soon.
Thank you for the input Ron. As the Portland City Commissioner in charge of
Portland Parks and Recreation (the owner of PIR), Dan supports PIR and knows
it is a valuable asset to our region and Parks' mission. Mayor Tom Potter
asked Dan to look at options for moving PIR and Dan is complying with that
request. It is important to note that Dan has strong skepticism regarding
the feasibility of moving PIR and is not promoting the idea. He will
continue to support PIR and its activities and looks forward to a summer of
racing.

Thanks again and feel free to contact us at any time.
