A few days ago I sat down with Portland City Councilor Candace Avalos to have a conversation about policing and transportation. Avalos, who represents an area east of I-205 including Lents in southeast and the Portland Airport, is a first time member of city council, but she's no stranger to local politics. She was chair of the Citizen Review Committee, where she served for six years and became a well-known advocate for police accountability. Prior to being a city councilor she was executive director of Verde, an environmental justice nonprofit. I met Councilor Avalos in a conference room at Midland Library on SE 122nd Avenue. The impetus for our conversation was the new Community Board for Police Accountability or CBPA, a new, high-profile venue for oversight of the Portland Police Bureau. More than just a committee, the new, 21-member board will have a significant budget, will hire its own investigators, and will issue binding decisions. It's crucial that this new CBPA have at least one member who understands how transportation issues relate to public safety and policing. It's my hope this interview encourages someone in our audience to apply for one of the positions. You have until April 14th to get your applications in. Here's the link to the application .…

Olivia Clark was the top vote getter in Council District 4 (everything west of Willamette River and small portion of Southeast including Sellwood). She's also a possible pick for City Council President. No matter how you slice it, her impressive background in and out of government means she will likely be a consequential member of the new, 12-member Council. In this interview (recorded in the BikePortland Shed on Friday, December 20th), you'll learn about her background (she's toured by bike with Adventure Cycling and has done several Cycle Oregon rides), and her her policy and political perspectives.

Happy Friday everyone. It sure was nice to have Eva back in The Shed after a few week holiday hiatus. This episode was meaty! Here are a few of the things we talked about: "How'd She Get There?" segment was Sellwood to Lake Oswego (including some very scary options). Why Eva is creeped out by lobster-style bike gloves (something about the devil). Michael Reiss and his amazing leaf sweeping work . Why I think it's time for PBOT to privatize bike lane maintenance I went on a huge rant about all the Vision Zero drama going on with PBOT, the PPB, and so on. The 82nd Ave Plan that was just adopted at City Council and why some transportation advocates don't like it. Why pitting bikes against transit (like PBOT is doing on 82nd) is a no good, very bad idea. The new Bike Happy Hour location on N Williams Ave. Closure of Cynergy E-Bike s And more.
