6.18.26 Regular Meeting

The Multnomah County Board held a regular hybrid meeting on June 22, 2026, which included public testimonies on various community issues and several procurement-related agenda items. Key procurement discussions involved the approval of a contract amendment (DCS-SVCSGEN-175-12-2025) for the zoning code improvement project, increasing the contract value by $73,505 to a total of $314,325 to support final code work and public engagement through 2027. The board also approved a resolution (R1) to increase building permit and land use service fees by approximately 5%, administered by the City of Portland under county code. Additionally, the board approved a grant application for the Stark Street Bridge Replacement Project, which would fully fund the project pending grant success, with local matching funds from the county's road fund. A resolution (R2) concerning cable-related services agreements was postponed to a later date. Public testimony included concerns about local infrastructure, housing development, and community programs, but no direct procurement actions were taken on those issues. The meeting concluded with updates on community events and ongoing county initiatives.
