Meet your linnton board!

Hello, I’m Richard Barker and I am the current Chair of the Linnton Neighborhood Association.  I have lived in Linnton for the past 5 years.  My partner and myself were drawn to Linnton by its history and tightknit neighborhoods.  Along with its natural beauty and bordering Forest Park.  I am a retired Global Business Consultant and enjoy the area and its working with my neighbors to continue the independent reputation that Linnton has a community in the Portland area.  It has been an honor serving as your Chair.

Hi all! I’m Amy Jauron, the Linnton Neighborhood Association Treasurer. My fiancé and I moved to Wilark in 2018 and we love living in Linnton! We have one very small dog named Gilly, and one very large orange cat named Bandit. Plus three lovely chickens. Professionally, I work for Greater Portland Inc a regional economic development group focused on bringing new companies and jobs to the metro area. I love traveling (when able), getting outside, and sipping a fancy cocktail. My favorite part of living in Linnton is my neighborhood and my neighbors! + the views.
