Description

Join the Portland Metro Chamber for Business Leadership Evening, an annual celebration of the leaders who are shaping the future of our region through service, vision and a commitment to making Portland a stronger place to live, work and do business.

This year, we are proud to honor Curtis Robinhold, Executive Director of the Port of Portland, with the William S. Naito Outstanding Service Award. Throughout his career, Curtis has demonstrated an extraordinary commitment to the Portland region, working to strengthen our economy, advance critical infrastructure and transportation investments, and position the region for long-term growth and opportunity.

The William S. Naito Outstanding Service Award recognizes an individual whose leadership, civic engagement and dedication to the Portland metropolitan region exemplify the legacy of William S. Naito.

By registering for this event you agree to the terms and conditions outlined in the Portland Business Alliance’s Code of Conduct for Events. 


For Public Officials:

Oregon Government Ethics Law has adopted an Administrative Rule, OAR 199-005-0015, that specifically addresses the gift exception in ORS 244.020(7)(b)(E). The Rule specifies that its purpose is “to allow public officials to attend organized, planned events and engage with the members of organizations when representing” state government, a local government, or a special government body.

 Public guidance provided by OGEC outlines a number of factors in the Rule that serve as indicia of whether paid expenses would qualify under this gift exception, including: 

  • A large number of people or groups are invited.
  • The invitations or programs are sent in advance.
  • The event is publicized.
  • The reception, meal, or meeting is open to the public.
  • Written materials, such as a printed program, are available.

 Not every factor has to be met in each circumstance. However, in each case when a public official is offered admission to, or the cost of food or beverages at, a reception, meal, or meeting, they will need to evaluate the above factors to make their own determination whether the paid expenses could be accepted under this gift exception. Questions or guidance about how to evaluate these factors should be directed to OGEC.
