About Board Meetings

The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners welcomes you to your County government at work!

The Board meets in the Multnomah Building, Boardroom 100 on Tuesday and Thursday mornings and upon proper notification, other days and locations as necessary. The Board convenes briefings and work sessions with staff and invited others reporting on various issues of interest to the County. Except for executive sessions, all meetings are open to the public.

The Board meets Thursday mornings to conduct regular County business, and votes on consent calendar items such as citizen appointments to boards and commissions and annual renewal and/or amendments to existing intergovernmental agreements, as well as regular agenda items, public hearings and other matters requiring formal Board approval or action.  Regular Board meetings are held in the first floor Boardroom of the Multnomah Building, 501 SE Hawthorne Boulevard, Portland, Oregon 97214.

Agenda packet material containing information on the current matters before the Board, may be viewed beginning Thursday afternoon the week prior to the meeting from the WeeklyAgendaPacket site.  Copies of the published Board Rules, weekly agenda, proposed ordinances and other items, are available for you. You are welcome to speak to any issue before the Board or on other issues you wish to bring before the Board at the Thursday regular meeting. Please fill out a sign up sheet available at the back counter and present it to the Clerk.  Public comment and/or testimony is usually limited to three minutes per person.

Thank you for becoming an active participant in your County government!
