C4 Orientation
Presented by Mr. Wilson
Mr. Wilson provided a history and orientation to C4. Mr. Savas emphasized the importance of the annual retreat and the work of the C4 Executive Committee. The Executive Committee is open to new topics, and subcommittees do good work. Mr. Gornick clarified the membership composition of the sewer/water district seat. Mr. Hodson noted the growth and impact of C4.
Retreat Discussion: Survey Findings
Staff summarized findings from a recent planning survey. The group expressed a preference for the July 25–26 scheduling option. Retreat topics will be discussed at a future meeting.
Appointments: Executive Committee & R1ACT
Members selected representatives to the C4 Executive Committee. Mr. Milch will be the new urban cities representative, with all other representatives reappointed.
Mr. Keyser moved to nominate Valerie Pratt and Bill Merchant for reappointment to the R1ACT. The motion was seconded by Mr. Bialostosky. The motion passed by unanimous consent.
Mr. Savas provided a brief history of the R1ACT and urged people to attend. Mayor Hodson noted the R1ACT has been very Portland-centric. Topics of interest can be elevated to local R1ACT members. Millicent Williams, PBOT, offered support for smaller cities seeking grant funds.
Legislative Updates
Presented by Mr. Wilson
Mr. Wilson provided a legislative update, focusing on transportation, wildfire, and capital project topics. Members raised concerns about ODOT accountability, wildfire prevention and response, and jurisdictional transfers.
Updates / Other Business
- JPACT - Bonding is being discussed. C4 authorized the preparation of a letter in support of the Sunrise Gateway Corridor project if needed (moved by Mr. Keyser, seconded by Ms. Pratt, all in favor). The Rose Quarter project is also seeking an MTIP amendment.
- Other Business - Mr. Milch inquired about SHS funding for city-led initiatives. Updates were provided about Pres. Peterson's regional table on future SHS implementation. C4 decided to start meeting in person every other month; frequency will be revisited in a few months.
Adjournment: 8:36 PM
