Portland commissioners Mapps and Rubio address 2021 goals

Rubio and Mapps said there is no room for hate in Portland or in Oregon.
Rubio took the lead in writing a letter, signed by the entire Portland City Council, calling for the resignation of a newly elected commissioner in neighboring Clackamas County.
Mark Shull is under pressure to step down after it came to light he had made racist and Islamophobic posts on social media.
Rubio said she followed the lead of the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners. Since then, the Clackamas County Board of Commissioners formally condemned Shull s posts by censuring him. Shull has apologized, but has said he doesn t intend to step down. ....

Pamplin Media Group - City Hall: Under New Management with Carmen Rubio

December 30 2020
Commissioner Carmen Rubio is part of a new center-left coalition on the City Council following the 2020 elections.
Carmen Rubio finally feels prepared for the next challenge of her life becoming the first Latina member of the Portland City Council in a transformational time.
Sometimes in the past, I ve felt like an impostor, said Rubio, who was elected to succeed retiring commissioner Amanda Fritz at the May 2020 primary election and sworn into office on Dec. 28. But now I feel like all of my experiences have prepared me for this.
Rubio s previous doubts will sound familiar to many members of immigrant families who broke down barriers. The daughter of Mexican and Mexican-American farmworkers who grew up in Hillsboro, she was the first member of her family to graduate from college, after almost dropping out because she felt so isolated. Inspired by groundbreaking Latina Multnomah County Commission candidate Serena Cruz, Rubio quit a secu ....

Portland is the only large American city where council members oversee bureaus instead of a professional manager.

As expected, Wheeler is keeping the Portland Police Bureau, even though Commissioner Jo Ann Hardesty has asked for it. ....

Mayor Ted Wheeler has released his much-anticipated bureau assignments for Portland city commissioners in 2021. The decision one of the rare executive powers of a Portland mayor offers a peek at what roles Wheeler wants his freshman commissioners to take on in the coming year.
Here s the breakdown:
Comissioner Jo Ann Hardesty
Hardesty has been assigned two of the top bureaus overseen by outgoing Commissioner Chloe Eudaly: Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) and the Office of Community and Civic Life (OCCL). The later assignment is most notable, since incoming Commissioner Mingus Mapps is a former employee of OCCL and centered much of his campaign on decrying Eudaly s work in the bureau. This decision shows that Wheeler s cautious about tearing down the work Eudaly put into the bureau, including her contentious proposal to allow other co ....
