 Willamette Week Online | News | NEWS STORY | Jay Walking Into The Portland Building | Wednesday December 7th, 2005
The City Council voted unanimously on Nov. 23 to donate space in the Portland Building for Project Clean Slate, a program Jay began this year to help people convicted of misdemeanors and minor felonies to pay off court-assessed fines or convert them to community service.
But Schrunk says the project works, because it settles the score with minor offenders, most of whom are in trouble for traffic violations or failure to pay child support.
Jay says the new office in the centrally located Portland Building will be the project's "command center" and estimates 15,000 people could clear their records and get back on their feet next year.
