Moda Center’s Future Hangs in the Balance
Description
The Moda Center’s $600 million renovation is heating up as Portland’s city, county, and state scramble to agree on funding — with the city still debating its $120 million commitment. Multnomah County, led by Chair Jessica Vega Pederson, warns that without a united front, the arena could vanish as a cultural and economic anchor — especially if the Portland Trail Blazers leave. Vega Pederson and Commissioner Shannon Singleton stress the need for a clear, equitable deal: if the city cuts its contribution, the county’s should too — no one wants to be the sole financier of a city-owned asset. Final decisions loom, with county approval needed before the city’s August vote.
