Metro says illegal tire dumping has spiked in the region, but cannot remove tires on private property; investigations involve the Multnomah County Sheriff and the Oregon DEQ. Transfer stations allow only a limited number of tires per day, highlighting an accountability gap as Tran presses forward with his home-building plans.
