Report Archive

City Club's report archive consists of a searchable database of the Club's reports and resolutions, including information on whether the Club adopted the recommendations contained in the reports. Reports published since the 1940s are available from the archive in PDF format. Until the process of adding PDFs of the remaining reports to the archive is complete, hard copies of older reports will be available to members and non-members for a modest fee. To obtain a hardcopy of an older report, please call the City Club office at 503-228-7231 x103 or send your request by e-mail to tony@pdxcityclub.org. City Club reports can also be found in many libraries throughout the state, including the Multnomah County Central Library, the Oregon Historical Society and numerous university, college and high school libraries.

Reports and resolutions are searchable by year, topic or text/title fragment.
