Voters approved in 2024 Measure 26-244, authorizing Metro to issue $380 million dollars to fund projects to protect animal health and well-being, provide conservation education, and conserve water and energy at the Oregon Zoo. Over the next 10-15 years, Metro will issue multiple tranches of taxable and tax-exempt general obligation debt to fund infrastructure improvements in line with the Oregon Zoo’s campus plan. Metro is committed to addressing the lack of diversity in the construction trades in greater Portland; projects funded through this program will use the framework developed in our Construction Career Pathways program to provide reliable career pathways for women and BIPOC people.
