Summary
At the meeting the board adopted R1 updating MCAS fees (including eliminating impound fees), approved a $230,000 workers' compensation settlement for Danny Nguyen (R2), and approved R3 to fund a preschool cost‑model tool with an amendment to fund it from the department's PEL allocation.
The Multnomah County Board took three formal votes on the regular agenda: adoption of the Multnomah County Animal Services fee/code resolution (R1); authorization of a workers' compensation settlement for Danny Nguyen in the amount of $230,000 (R2); and approval of a budget modification to commission a true cost‑of‑care modeling tool for Preschool for All (R3), which was adopted as amended to use internal PEL funds rather than contingency.
R1: Adopted (resolution updating Chapter 13; eliminated impound fees for lost/stray pets; direction to staff for implementation timelines and legal clarifications).
R2: Approved (workers' compensation settlement). Amber (speaker identified in the record) requested approval of a $230,000 settlement to resolve current and future claims and related litigation; commissioners approved the settlement by roll call.
R3: Approved as amended (budget modification to commission a dynamic cost‑modeling tool for Preschool for All; amendment reallocated $200,000 from departmental PEL allocation rather than contingency; staff will return with procurement and timeline).
