If you would like to sign up for public comment, please send an email with your first and last name and topic to PublicComment@pps.net or call Kara Bradshaw at 503-916-3906. Requests for public comment will be processed in the order that they are received and should be received by 12:00 pm the day of the meeting. 

Please note the following for in-person attendance:

On July 26th, Multnomah County Health announced updated guidance for mask-wearing: Wear a mask when indoors around people you don’t live with, whether vaccinated or not. This update is in response to increases in Delta variant cases in Oregon and is consistent with evolving guidance from state and national public health agencies, including the CDC, which has advised that vaccinated people who live in high-transmission areas wear masks in indoor public spaces and that K-12 schools require masks for all.

Consistent with our practice of following public health guidance throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, beginning July 27th we are requiring members of the public, including those signed up to give public comments, to wear masks at board meetings. If you would prefer to speak virtually, please let us know and we will send you instructions for joining by Zoom.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in our efforts to ensure the health and safety of our employees.

Under the provision of ORS 192.670 all meetings will be live-streamed at www.youtube.com/user/ppscomms/live, except for those meetings that fall under the provisions set forth for executive sessions.
