“Tanya, I would say that when I saw an email from Mira, there was... I was like, okay, this is a one Washington County respond. Everybody is impacted. Everybody is dealing with it. So it really did demonstrate. And it's not just a sheriff thing that the whole Washington County, you know, government, local government was hence on.”

“Can I ask you a question, Courtney? Are you collaborating with the Clean Water Services legal department when it comes to public records?”

“Surprisingly, I've heard from constituents who have expressed positive interaction with Clean Water Services in terms of record requests in any of their projects. And that question actually came from a constituent that was posed to me. And I was like, oh, I don't know. I'll ask. But it might be advantageous to us to try to see what they do over there. and how they are a bit more receptive. Seems like that's the story I took away. That question was that. So just checking with Brad or if Brad is still there or any of the members.”

“Great. Thank you. Who's next? I can go next, Chair. Just a quick update on some of my work over the past week. I had my regular check-in with our county auditor. I had a great humanity for a staff briefing on flavor ban, the tobacco flavor ban. And then I also had my regular one-on-one check-in with undersheriff Cook. I also met with a community member from Care Oregon who is interested in serving on the Community Action Board. Kim Shuey suggested we connect so I could share some background on community action and my experience with the organization so far, I always appreciate seeing…”

“As a group, yeah. Okay. And I'm a thumbs up what you're for next Tuesday. I just want to say a temporary pause actually will give the opportunity to our community to provide her with greater certainty to understand the impacts. And I really do think that it would also give us an opportunity to establish clear, practical guardrails before any future development can move forward reasonably with that. There's a lot of talk about the cost and shifting the cost onto residents. So this is actually in the best interest of the residents of Washington County to sort of just give room for everyone to…”

“That would be practical, obviously. Cities do have a home rule, but I think the letter that I've asked Kevin to publish, which was the request for the moratorium, the second part of that is encouraging cities to follow through. So there's that encouragement because we can't tell other local government what to do and how to conduct.”

“COMMISSIONER PYE. I AM NOT DECLARING AN ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST ON THIS MATTER. I HAVE REQUESTED EXPEDITED WRITTEN GUIDANCE FROM THE OREGON Oregon Government Ethics Commission.

“Courtney, this question is to you. What does our Rules of Procedure say about the order of voting? Since the Chair said on the record that we're trying to get to three votes, could we do it alphabetical order?”

“So I would recommend, I don't know, I've been called multiple times first, so I don't know, Board Clerk, if you could speak to your, what's your process on when you're going to call voting?”

“But Chair, there's a point of inquiry here. So what's the rule, Robert's rule procedure on this?”

“Yeah, but we're in a regular meeting. We're following that. The point of inquiry I had for the chair is I was going to ask her understanding of the rules of procedure, but snapping. What does that say? How's that an interpretation of a disruption?”
