Portland
Welcome to the lemmy.world community for Portland, Oregon!
This community has kind of been empty since it was created, I'm hoping to change that!
Unlike "other" Portland communities you may have seen "elsewhere", I believe in a "warts and all" approach. You are free to take off your Rose tinted glasses and talk about topics that are dragging our city down.
At the same time, sunset pics, snowmageddon, traffic monster, cones, that's all welcome as well. Let's collectively keep Portland weird!
2024 is going to be an interesting year politically with all the changes to city government, I will attempt to tag political threads with a [Politics] tag and encourage users to do so as well.
Other than the lemmy.world restrictions on spam, copyrighted material, and adult material (USE that NSFW tag!), there's only one real way to get in trouble here:
- Don't attack other users.
It's OK to go after Teargas Ted, it's OK to say Rene Gonzales is a fascist, ACAB, BLM, whatever floats your boat (WEFYB).
It's NOT OK to attack or diminish another user. Feel free to disagree, you can point out the many ways you think they're wrong, just don't start throwing perjoratives AT OTHER USERS.

"Under national code for all propane Lp and Natural gas, all meters are to be mounted outside the building with an appropriate shut off valve, for emergencies, prior to the gas line entry into the building. In the absence of any state or local code enforcement, the national code for installation, testing, and final use of the meter will prevail, including the use of all materials in standards of the NFPA (U.S.) for safe and approved use."
Makes sense, in the event of a gas leak, you can shut off the gas without having to go inside a compromised building.
Here, the outer emergency shutoff valves are outside, usually under the road, but anything else, including the meter and the second emergency shutoff, is in the house, usually in the basement.
