Protesters at Portland City Hall rallied against a controversial Portland General Electric transmission upgrade project in Forest Park that would require the utility to clearcut more than 370 trees on about 5 acres in the park. The rally came ahead of the Council considering two appeals on whether to overturn a previous city decision to approve the project.
