Biographical facts and stated priorities below are paraphrased from the Councilor’s official Portland.gov profile. They are identified separately from Portland Civic Lab’s analysis of the public record.
Novick is a District 3 Councilor and current chair of the Community and Public Safety Committee. Portland’s current profile provides limited biographical detail, so this guide does not fill the gap with unsourced background claims.
Official City Council profileThe City profile does not publish a detailed personal priority statement. The position guide therefore relies primarily on his current-term statements and official actions.
Self-described priorities are not treated as proof of action or results.Each topic combines directly attributed words with votes and official actions from this term. A topic is not assigned a left–right label, and a vote never supplies a motive by itself.
10 prior topic syntheses need evidence reconciliation before they can be shown. This does not mean the Councilor has no positions. Use the official biography, named votes, and their own published explanations while that review is pending.
This list prioritizes this Councilor’s no votes and divided final actions. It does not treat unanimous routine business as equally informative.
These are observable features of the record, not a grade for effectiveness. Committee influence, sponsorship, motions, and participation are shown with their scope intact.
Chair · Community and Public Safety; Member · Housing and Permitting Like all 12 councilors, they also serve on the Finance and Governance Committee of the Whole.
Review committee workOfficial documents naming this Councilor as a sponsor or co-sponsor.
Review introduced mattersSince January 2025. Named-mover actions, including amendments and procedure.
Review motions21 recorded absences in the named-vote dataset.
Review voting recordCounts describe recorded activity. They are not an ideology score, effectiveness grade, or endorsement.
Current and former committee tenures remain separate so reorganizations do not blur the record.
Committee of the Whole includes all 12 councilors; this is a universal Council assignment, not a distinctive portfolio.
Subject areas use the City’s published service-area or bureau labels. They describe the record; they do not infer a political position.
A no vote is presented with the item, date, and available source. The record does not assume the councilor’s reason.
“Introduced” uses the sponsor field on official Council documents and includes co-sponsored work since January 2025. It does not establish sole authorship. Sponsorship and motions are separate activities; the same matter can appear in both.

“Thank you, Chair. I wanted to say, first of all, how much, to use Ted Lasso's phrase, I appreciate you. I've been appreciating Sam Chase in various roles for 32 years now. Really appreciated working with Evan on the issue of whether we can get Medicaid to start paying for PSR and CHAT. Appreciated Jax being involved in the question of whether we can use this huge prospective railroad merger to stop the trains from blocking traffic in Southeast Portland for hours on end. So thank you all for the work that you do. I had one bit, little worry about the agenda, which is at the, the state agenda, which is at the beginning under safe, predictable, and sustainable transportation systems. It mentions transit in the intro, but then there's nothing about transit in the bullets. And I just have to say that I think that preventing TriMet from continuing to fall apart is more important than demons…”
“Thank you, Chair. So how should community input inform council decision-making? I think part of the answer to that is council should be aware of and sensitive to how much of the community they're hearing Because I think often in this building, you know, we have one nonprofit motivate 200 people to send us an email and 20 people to show up, and we think we've heard from community when actually it's a very small, self-selected part of the community. By the same token, if you have neighborhood association people show up and the people who go to the neighborhood association are vastly underrepresented of the diversity of their communities, that's not really hearing from community either. I think that's a great point. So I think part of how should community inform council decision-making is council needs to be sensitive to how much of the community they're hearing from. And we should also …”
“So I think that, and this really sort of relates to question 3, but I think that the existence of the representation by district has the chance to be a real game changer. I mean, for one thing, when I was in the commission form of government, I hardly ever went to neighborhood associations because you knew I couldn't go to 99, so why go to any? And now, like Councilor Clark, I, that if I haven't gone to all of them, it's not for want of trying. So I think That, that means that we can tell the general public that neighborhood associations are a place to go to, you know, interact with your councilor, and that should make them more appealing. Um, and what, I mean, one of the problem, I mean, one, one thing I just wanted to really underscore here is, um, there's, damn, where is it? Um, you talk about, um, providing Develop training resources, capacity for increasing diversity and expandin…”
“Yes, on the secondhand dealer provisions, partly in response to Councilor Kanal's questions about background checks last week, we were looking through the language of that provision and concluded that there's some language issues both in the In the preexisting rules that I think needs to be addressed. I'm not quite sure we're there yet. So I just want to have some time to work with the team and come back with language that I'm comfortable with.”
“This is a little off topic, but in response to Councilor Ryan, I want to note one of my parking peeves, which is that when people put up temporary no parking signs, often the no parking is in very big letters and the from, you know, August 23rd at 3:00 PM to August 26th at 2:00 PM is very small. So people just see no parking and go on So I wanted to have a conversation with PBOT about, can we require the lettering about the time for no parking to be as big as the no parking part? But yeah, this is off topic, but you just reminded me of my own issue.”
“I was proposing to do them individually in an excess of caution because frankly I wasn't sure we'd have the same number of votes for all of them. But given what I've seen so far, I think it would be appropriate.”
“Basically says we know that this is not going to be over by 2036. We're going to, we're not going to solve the problem by then. We're going to continue to work with stakeholders and gather more information with an eye towards, you know, doing more work in subsequent decades. Novick 1 is sort of in the nature of a whereas clause, and it says, I'll just read the whole thing. The council recognizes that unless there's an actual reduction in demand for liquid fuel, the state legislature is likely to override any drawdown requirement before that requirement becomes effective. Therefore, it is incumbent on the city to do what it can to reduce demand. Accordingly, council expresses our commitment to work with the PCF committee and other stakeholders to ensure that the next climate investment plan, at least 40% of Portland Clean Energy Fund dollars will be spent in transportation measures to …”
“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Yes, partly in response to Chair Kanal's questions about background checks and the secondhand dealers item, 2026-327. We were taking a look at that item over the last week and concluded there's some language issues that need to be worked out that I think that we're not, I don't know that we're quite there yet. I apologize for that. So I think that it's appropriate to, so I asked to refer that item to the, actually to the CAPS Committee. I think that's appropriate because the whole reason for this part of the regulations is concerned about secondhand dealers potentially dealing in stolen goods. So it's, there's definitely a public safety nexus. The 4 remaining items I hope to refer on to council today. Look forward to the discussion. I think given some of the discussion last week, my preference would be to vote on them separately rather than as a package in wha…”
“Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Well, yesterday we actually have, the full council was looking at a couple of the issues that have come through the Public Safety Committee, the psychedelics ordinance and the 2 police grants. Some big picture things we've had. We had a presentation on the report that Councilor Smith requested on what the timeline would be and the expenses would be for significant ramp-up in police staffing. And the police also had some suggestions as to where such staff might be assigned. That was an interesting conversation that I think is probably worthy of follow-up. We also had a presentation on police response times at Vice Chair Murillo's request, which frankly I think left a lot of questions unanswered. And I told the police bureau that I'm planning to bring them back to continue that conversation. In terms of specific, oh, and I should also add that, . Thank you. In th…”
“Uh, not to at all make light of the serious testimony, comments, experiences people have shared today, but I can't resist, um, telling about my personal debt to psychedelics. When I was 6 years old, my parents stayed up all night on mescaline and watched the Saturday morning cartoons with me, which they normally did not, and they concluded that they were fascistic and threw out the TV. We didn't have one for 8 years. And as a result, I think I read many more books than I otherwise would have. So I owe a debt to mescaline.”
“Uh, Chair Pirtle-Guiney, members of the committee, my name is Steve Novick. Thanks for the opportunity to be before you today. Uh, the resolution I bring to you today, it denounces legislation that some Republicans have proposed in the U.S. House and Senate. Now, I realize that we could spend every minute of every week denouncing legislation that Republicans have introduced in the House and Senate, and I don't want to open the floodgates. But when Breach Collective came to me suggesting I bring this resolution, there are a couple of factors that made me less worried about opening the floodgates. A number of jurisdictions around the country, states, cities, and counties, including Multnomah County, have brought lawsuits against the fossil fuel industry to hold them accountable for damages caused by climate change. The lawsuits focus on the deceptive conduct. Of the fossil fuel companies. …”
“I just have to say that I find Councilor Morillo's assertion that anyone who disagrees with her on an issue relating to which company has a franchise agreement means that they don't care about climate change.”
