I'm focused not just on what people say, but on what the documentation actually shows. en-us Thu, 30 Jul 2026 12:00:00 GMT https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/park-spraying-signage https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/park-spraying-signage Thu, 30 Jul 2026 12:00:00 GMT The council voted 5-0 to require signs before spraying our parks. The councilor who did the spraying voted yes—but then sprayed with no warning. He told the council he saw no need. https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/auditor-couldnt-sign-off https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/auditor-couldnt-sign-off Thu, 23 Jul 2026 12:00:00 GMT An independent auditor issued qualified opinions on all five of Rivergrove’s funds—and the Council told residents the findings were “addressed and fixed.” What the audit actually says, and what was said about it. https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/audit-bankruptcy https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/audit-bankruptcy Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT The claim that a resident-petitioned audit would push Rivergrove toward insolvency is misleading; it was built by measuring a one-time cost against a narrow slice of city revenue. https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/lake-oswego-annexation https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/lake-oswego-annexation Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT The campaign's centerpiece scare: that a failed levy would end with Lake Oswego annexing Rivergrove. The County, Lake Oswego, and an independent memo all reached the opposite conclusion. https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/lake-oswego-taxes https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/lake-oswego-taxes Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT The viral '10x' tax comparison set the proposed Rivergrove levy alone against Lake Oswego's entire tax rate. Whole bill to whole bill, Lake Oswego is about 1.13x—not 10x—and even that gap only matters if you accept the annexation premise, which the record doesn't support. https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/watchdog-site https://rivergrove.leahsilber.com/receipts/watchdog-site Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:00:00 GMT A campaign-long push to unmask the residents behind a local-government watchdog site—across Nextdoor and the council dais. The substantive question isn't who's speaking; it's whether what's said is accurate.
