PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION
The Port of Portland has been shifting our mission toward Shared Prosperity - a vision of a prosperous region, where quality jobs, multi-generational wealth, and access to markets are equitable and shared. This new mission has shifted how we plan our three-airport aviation portfolio to better position it to yield equitable economic outcomes. This presentation will discuss new planning perspectives that we've emphasized at our general aviation and commercial service airports.
