Council appoints multiple residents to boards and commissions; removes one nominee from Portland Housing Authority list
Summary
The council approved a slate of applicants for city boards and commissions and accepted a late amendment removing one nominee from a Portland Housing Authority appointment due to a potential conflict of interest.
The Portland City Council approved order 2312425, appointing a slate of residents to city boards and commissions after a brief presentation by the clerk and comments from council sponsors. The clerk read a long list of names for multiple bodies; the council chair said five affirmative votes were required to appoint individuals.
During the roll call the council considered a late amendment submitted that morning to remove Jessica Rosenberg from appointment to the Portland Housing Authority because she had withdrawn her name due to a potential conflict of interest. Council accepted the amendment to remove Rosenberg and then voted to appoint the remaining nominees as presented.
The motion to appoint the nominees and the amendment to remove the one name both passed by roll call. No public comment was offered for the appointments list prior to the vote.
