In sum: the City can send out the mandated letters each year, but
then they can send out other letters too, stating that they, personally,
welcome their Tri-Met overlords. And as for those land-use regulations
and stuff that those pesky plebians want to vote on, well, once Metro,
Portland, and Tri-Met decide to ram lines through the area, the City can
simply apply their existing regulations to the project.
And the City Council has the power to "interpret" the recently-passed ballot measure; giving them added leeway.
