Early notes[edit]

Perhaps the title should be American Politician instead of Metro President? I am exploring info boxes for officials in my sand box. Art to Tech (talk) 02:54, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oregon's Metro is sometimes confused with the Twin Cities' Metropolitan Council, which is not directly elected. If Mayors of Portland are featured prominently in Wikipedia, Presidents of Metro should also be featured, as Metro embraces 24 cities. I'll be happy to work on the context of all this.

Great job on the article, a little surprising it didn't already exist 3 years+ into her Metro term. I'll just say that it seems we're getting to a point where her position on the Lake Oswego City Council would justify an article. If not that, then being Clackamas County chair and a sate DOT director. Jason McHuff (talk) 07:36, 20 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
