The City of Hillsboro just approved the construction of a five-story parking garage for Intel. The fact that more jobs are coming to Oregon (courtesy Intel) is a very good thing, but it remains to be seen how this development will affect the residents of Orenco Station. I certainly believe that the Orenco Station home prices may increase if Intel hires additional workforce for the new factory (Fingers crossed).
Previously Intel had not been quite open with the Orenco Station residents on the construction of the garage. Since then Intel seems to have been more proactive in responding to the petitions and needs of the Orenco Station neighborhood.
