The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners conducts hybrid meetings that allow presenters and members of the public to appear in-person or virtually. Hybrid meetings support the County's commitment to providing community access to our board meetings to the greatest extent possible. The County’s goal is to conduct inclusive and safe board meetings, including seamless virtual and in-person testimony.

Assisted Listening Devices may be requested from the Board Clerk 48 hours prior to the board meeting.

Visit the Board Clerk’s website to find instructions on calling in by phone to listen to board meetings, watch past board meetings, or access meeting minutes and agendas. Recordings of each board meeting will be available on both the Board Clerk’s website and the YouTube page within 48 hours following the end of the meeting.

Public Comment

Members of the public may testify in person or virtually. Public comment on non-agenda items will be heard at the beginning of Thursday board meetings. Comments on agenda items are heard before the Board votes on that item. 

The board clerk will call your name when it is your turn to testify. Public comment is limited to 3 minutes or less per person unless otherwise stated at the meeting. The Board Clerk will also announce the end of your allotted time. You will be allowed to finish your sentence.

To testify in person: Please use the forms available in the boardroom to sign up to testify on agenda or non-agenda items.

To testify virtually: Please use the virtual public testimony form to sign up to testify or to submit written testimony on agenda and non-agenda items. The deadline to sign up for the next scheduled Thursday Board meeting is Wednesday at 4 p.m.
