Recognizing and honoring Jim Card for his service and contributions to the people of Oregon.
HCR 26 is a concurrent resolution honoring Jim Card for his decades of service to Gresham, Oregon, particularly his work restoring Tsuru Island Japanese Garden and Ebetsu Plaza. It formally recognizes his 40-year career as a landscaper/horticulturist and his efforts to revitalize Gresham’s Main City Park into a community gathering space and public destination. This resolution has no policy impact - it is purely ceremonial, expressing legislative appreciation without creating new laws, funding, or obligations. The bill directly honors Jim Card, a volunteer whose garden restoration and educational outreach improved local parks and community life.
