Beaverton's "urban renewal" sharpie, Don The Don Mazziotti, has scored an EPA grant to show us all how "green" his pals' apartment bunkers and streetcars can be. Remember when he and Merritt Paulson were going to pave over Lents Park with a parking lot made out of "eco-bricks"? Too, too funny.

Oh, and guess what:

Because Beaverton's urban renewal district received far less money from property taxes than expected in 2012, the city has applied for grants and other assistance to help pay for projects.

Truly epic. People make fun of Beaverton, and in this case, for good reason.
