In their own words

Recent attributed meeting remarks.

These recent automatic-transcript excerpts are provided for source review, not selected as proof of a policy position or rationale. The audited guide above analyzes the complete available transcript corpus.

9. Add Psychedelic Health and Safety Code and create the Portland Psychedelics Advisory Commission (add Code Chapter 14B.140) (Ordinance)
“I guess part of why I ask these kinds of questions is because ultimately what this policy is doing is it's not changing state law or, you know, authorizing sales or excusing impaired driving or unsafe conduct, things like that. And it doesn't decriminalize. It's just establishing a city enforcement priority. Thank you. Councilmember Herbold. Thank you, Mayor. So the mayor has made a priority for the noncommercial personal use while leaving higher-risk activities subject to enforcement. And so, you know, as this is being implemented, I just think it's important for us as council to understand whether formalizing this priority actually changes how resources are being used and if there are any unintended impacts, particularly because we know that disproportionate racial impacts have long been a result of discretionary policy. And so I hope that this does not, you know, result in disparat…”
5. \Appropriate grant award of $103,069 for expanded traffic enforcement (Emergency ordinance)
“Apologies, just a quick question to confirm what Councilor Pirtle-Guiney is saying, because I remember you asking the question last time, but I don't remember the answer. Was it that they said this was capital? Is that the distinction you're making?”
4. \Appropriate grant award of $207,411 for speed racing street takeover (Emergency ordinance)
“Thank you. Thank you. I'll be brief. I second Councilor Green's comments. Tired of being lectured about decorum by people not great at following it. I also agree with Councilor Pirtle-Guiney's comments that we should be focused on the policy choice. So thank you, Councilor Knoll, for raising this important policy choice. It's clear we need to have the broader policy discussion, and so I'm eager for that. I think it's very fair for councilors like I'm feeling and like Councilor Kanal is feeling to be wary about what kinds of precedents that we're setting. And I think that this is us choosing to make a precedent in a way, in that I believe choosing to approve this amendment shows the intent from this council to ensure the proportionality of the police budget and OCPA budget remains consistent through, you know, infusions of cash to PBB outside of the regular budget process.”
13. Motion to Postpone Reconsideration of Item 13: Consent to franchise transfer from Zenith Energy Terminals Holdings LLC to ISQ Springer Holdings, LLC (amend Ordinance 188554)
“Yeah, I, I think that it's clear there are some concerns that people have about moving this forward right now due to everything we've already discussed, and so I think it's the most responsible thing to postpone So that we can give all the councilors whatever comforts they need to make that decision. And so I think it is, I would urge my colleagues to support this motion because I also agree that I'm not at this point interested in voting to reconsider something that I have not seen any material change in people's opinions. And so I would love to be able to make that Judgment call with more information. It's impossible for me to do that now, so I would not vote to reconsider it today. I'd be open to it in the future. And so if that's what people want, then I would recommend we vote for this to postpone it so that we can make that possible next time. Otherwise, I'm just going to be a n…”
16. Urge the City Administrator to refrain from signing data center non-disclosure agreements, notify City Council of inquiries for data center deals, and engage in transparent public processes related to data centers (Resolution)
“Just kidding. Well, I'll keep it short. I don't want to take up too much more time. I think my colleagues have already shared, uh, why this is important. And, uh, grateful to Councilor Koyama Lane and Green for spearheading this, uh, particularly Koyama Lane and Sabatino. Got to throw a shout out to him. What a great human. Um, and ultimately, I just want to say that East Portlanders really feel the effects of the way that data data centers can negatively impact utility costs and neighborhoods, noise levels. I was knocking on doors in Sumner and they were telling me about a weird smell that they have. And this is something we dealt with in, at Verde in Cully, where there are just these different industries that are emitting lots of smells that are chemicals. And East Portland is already facing the brunt of that. And so it's super important that we add transparency and accountability a…”
13. Motion to Reconsider Item 13: Consent to franchise transfer from Zenith Energy Terminals Holdings LLC to ISQ Springer Holdings, LLC (amend Ordinance 188554)
“So this, you can, in the motion to reconsider, attach the condition which you're adding, which is like that we will do it at a time certain. And so can you help me understand that?”
15. \Appropriate grant award of $103,069 for expanded traffic enforcement (Emergency ordinance)
“Thank you. So I understand the intent behind improving crash investigations and reducing the amount of time roadways are closed after serious collisions. We know that traffic safety is a real concern. We know that especially well in East Portland. Um, but like I said in the last item, I don't believe that increased enforcement automatically means increased safety, and traffic stops can have a very different impact across our communities, especially when we know that Portlanders of color have been and continue to be disproportionately targeted for traffic stops. In the most recent stops data, Black people made up 20% of total stops while accounting for only 5.7% of Portland's population, and 46.3% of those stops happened in East Precinct. So I again want to be careful anytime council is asked to additional resources that expand police traffic enforcement, especially through surveillanc…”
14. \Appropriate grant award of $207,411 for speed racing street takeover (Emergency ordinance)
“Thank you. So, um, I've got some questions. I think that I have, in general, I have concerns anytime we are asked to add funding for police enforcement without clear evidence about what outcomes that additional spending will produce. Um, obviously street racing and takeovers can create serious safety risks. We've experienced it a lot in East Portland, and we have a responsibility to address them. But that doesn't mean that every enforcement strategy is automatically effective or justified. So before approving additional overtime and surveillance equipment, I want to understand how these funds will be used, how success is measured, and what safeguards are in place. Council President, are there folks, I guess, are these kinds of questions to police leadership? Are they in the room? Or I don't, .”
4. Renter feedback forum (Public hearing)
“All right, folks, so thank you to everyone who came out today. I know that, uh, it is the middle of the day. I don't expect that we're going to get a groundswell of folks, uh, especially working folks who are struggling with their rent. Uh, they're not going to be able to come at 3:00. So thank you for those that could and for also representing the voices of the many Portlanders that are struggling. Um, you know, this is, this conversation we had prior to this was about just assessing our policies as a city, what we need to be doing to increase affordability and access to folks. I regularly, you know, as I go around and knock on doors, it's actually really difficult because that is the number one thing that I hear. And I know that the city needs to do better to provide resources. It really sucks, frankly, to be standing on someone's doorstep who's telling me that they are on the verge…”

3. Informational briefing on Mandatory Relocation Assistance (Presentation)
“Oh no, my computer's trying to restart at this moment. Let's not do that. Okay, um, thank you again so much for being here and sharing. As I said at the beginning, I asked for this briefing just so that we could get a sense of the conditions that have changed significantly since this policy was put into place. Because, you know, originally it was created to respond to rapid rent increases and involuntary displacement and obviously the connection between housing instability and homelessness. And so the premise of it was pretty straightforward, that when a landlord makes a decision that forces someone to move, that move comes with real costs and tenants shouldn't necessarily be expected to absorb all of them. So that, um, policy, uh, outcome or legislative intent is super important. Um, and, you know, as we know, those costs have not gone away. They've gone up, uh, in lots of ways. And …”

Procedure

Motions they made.

Since January 2025. Includes recorded Council and committee motions on amendments, procedure, and substantive items where this Councilor is named as mover, regardless of outcome. Seconding or sponsoring an item alone does not count. Coverage depends on published records and successful extraction; this is not a complete inventory of every motion made. Earlier City Commissioner service is excluded.

Counting correction, September 10, 2026: totals and lists now exclude inactive duplicate records and count an explicitly combined motion repeated under multiple agenda items once. Separate motions with identical wording remain separate. Original source records are preserved.

52 recorded motions shown below.
