Official account for Portland City Councilor Mitch Green from District 4. portland.gov/disclaimer https://linktr.ee/councilorgreenhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mrr4shy2l22bNot my district, but c’mon man. I’ll be sending a letter to Parks about this (with a cc to the D3 councilors), but this is one of those moments where in the midst of the many ongoing policy challenges that Portlanders experience that have no near term solution, you don’t add some new pain like this https://www.wweek.com/news/city/2026/07/28/city-orders-citizen-run-summer-camp-to-discontinue-popular-waterslide/29 Jul 2026 04:50 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrr4shy2l22bhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mrogxgjc6s25I think our Council President is managing the Moda talks situation deftly. Completely uncharted territory. Thanks for your leadership @councilordunphy.bsky.social28 Jul 2026 03:13 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mrogxgjc6s25https://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mrdlcpamo223Setting aside whether the relocation threat is real or a bluff (and reserving judgement on how each elected evaluates *that* piece), if you claim that there’ll be an econ impact you need to say what it is. Once you’ve done that you need to be able to articulate the credibility of the impact.

Not the case. Let me clarify what happened yesterday 🧵17 Jul 2026 15:02 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqtzfttkuk2dhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mqt5kdffuk26I want to be clear that what the Blazers received today is not a term sheet from Council. That will be the product of a resolution that Council will consider, debate, amend and adopt. What they received today was the same draft that we received after initial reactions in executive session.

Join Commissioner Megan Moyer @multcomoyer.bsky.social and me for coffee and tea in Goose Hollow at Bold Coffee & Books. Please RSVP so we know who we’re expecting.

Probably the biggest problem at this moment. Pushing for a sensible timeline - one commensurate with the scale of the public ask - will remain I central plank of my approach as we move forward.

For those following all things land use related to storage, load / unloading of asphalt and liquid fuels in the CEI Hub and adjacent area you’ll want to mark your calendar for Tuesday July 28 at 10:30 to listen to an Early Assistance meeting with PP&D.15 Jul 2026 00:04 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mqngcxm5gc2bhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mq5r3asnjk2gCouncilor Kanal just said: the old world is dying. The new world is struggling to be born. Now is the time of land use.08 Jul 2026 18:34 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mq5r3asnjk2ghttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mpzw2grcus2hMy position remains pretty straightforward: I’m not supporting a blank check for a public subsidy where both the scale and distribution of benefits are largely unknown. And I’m a hard no on PCEF as the source. We have contract protections for a reason, so let’s use them to not get screwed.

We each brought forward amendments in the budget that sought to address the accountability concerns with UA. Those efforts failed when six of our colleagues declined to take action, but the need for oversight remains.

It’s important to get this right. We do that by ditching the artificially short timeline the Mayor and Governor set for Council, engage the public properly and negotiate *for* Portlanders. https://www.oregonlive.com/opinion/2026/07/editorial-rise-up-to-the-challenge-portland-leaders-and-keep-the-trail-blazers-here.html02 Jul 2026 03:09 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mpn2l3g5wc2ahttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3moyelp5w7s2mI’m unsettled by the Mayor’s newsletter today re: Moda. Rather than acknowledge that there are very real concerns about how this process has unfolded, he chose instead to cast critique as short-sighted and opportunistic in an effort to deflect from the impressive lack of rigor to date on his part.23 Jun 2026 21:42 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3moyelp5w7s2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3mogvtalljk2eIn Housing & Permitting Cmte where we are hearing a proposal to hold the HOLTE cap constant for another year. I asked why the average purchase price for homes under this program has softened relative to 2021. RIP was cited as the driver for lowering cost. Need to advertise that widely imo!16 Jun 2026 23:03 +0000at://did:plc:fkj5ytfohhvmavvbimsupnut/app.bsky.feed.post/3mogvtalljk2ehttps://bsky.app/profile/councilorgreen.bsky.social/post/3moevo5ofy224Kudos to @councilordunphy.bsky.social for standing firm. Those of us who’ve been calling for a public process around the Moda conversation have made it clear that it’s a high priority to get one of these on the books as soon as the budget wraps. I look forward to discussing this topic in public.
