Citations for the ordinance in general began on November 1st of 2025 Coupled with the annual burn ban, can we please get our PD partners to respond and cite in all cases of illegal outside fires? These fires have caused untold death, injury, damage, and heartache throughout the city for roughly the last decade.

Yeah, there's a lot to unpack there.

I think the first thing to talk about is just in terms of the camping ordinance.

So there's a time, place, manner rule that PPB is involved in helping to enforce.

That's really a longer process that doesn't match up to what we need for extinguishing illegal burns and citing folks for illegal burns.

Just for everybody's knowledge, like the time, place, manner Enforcement happens with day's notice.

It happens with posting signs in the area and then coordinating with Portland Solutions to get wraparound services.

With the reorganization of Portland Fire and Rescue Divisions, would you please talk about your vision and plans for the fire liaison position at BOEC?
