I thought you might want to pass this on to the people who were complaining about that restaurant and all the smoke. Was that ever resolved or is it still a problem? I copied and pasted the article itself because the link may be subscription only (but try it, easier to pass on)-from San Francisco Chronicle. Same thing happened there-the smoke is “within the air quality rules”.

When it’s time to get rid of an old mattress, many people don’t even realize that […]
Hi, Inner Easties! If you missed the recent drug turn-in event at the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office (4735 East Burnside, formerly PPB’s SE Precinct), keep this link on hand: https://apps.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/pubdispsearch. These locations are available year round to take unwanted prescription medicine. Just enter your zip code to find a place nearby. When was the last time you went through your medicine cabinet, kitchen cabinets, first aid or travel kits? Time flies, especially when it comes to expired medications! I would expect that most people know that medication should not be flushed down the toilet because it will enter our waterways. […]
