Sellwood neighborhood resident Eli Arnold is running for Portland City Council District 4 (Sellwood, Eastmoreland, West of Willamette). His day job is a Portland Police Officer on the Central City Bike Squad. He and BikePortland founder Jonathan Maus talked about a wide range of issues, including:
- His experience on the bike squad.
- Why he started a community garden in his Savannah, GA neighborhood in 2014.
- How he can be trusted to lead with only Army and police experience.
- What he thinks about Former City Councilor Jo Ann Hardesty's violence prevention tactics.
- Policing in Portland and Arnold's ideas for improving it.
- What he'd do to save lives on our streets.
- Why I'm skeptical of his candidacy and Portland Police in general.
- and much more!
