Portland City Council has initiated steps to dissolve the intergovernmental agreement with Multnomah County regarding homelessness services, citing insufficient progress despite funding efforts.
City officials have expressed frustration over perceived inaction from Multnomah County, despite millions spent on services for the homeless, and plan to take decisive steps.
Recent improvements in communication about homelessness response were noted, but City Council members maintain that they are not enough to warrant continuation of the agreement.
Approval for the dissolution of the Homelessness Response System Intergovernmental Agreement was achieved without consensus from all members, notably excluding the absent Mayor and a City Commissioner.
