Office of the Mayor Mayor's Office Program Description & Goals Mayor Keith Wilson was elected as Portland’s 54th mayor in November 2024, becoming the first candidate to win under the city’s new ranked choice voting system. He began his four-year term on January 1, 2025. The 2022 ballot measure that introduced ranked choice voting also brought significant changes to Portland’s government structure, including expanding the City Council, establishing voting districts and removing the Mayor from the Council. Mayor Wilson has set five policy goals: End unsheltered homelessness Restore public safety, health, and confidence Rapidly expand affordable housing Make local government smarter and more effective Make Portland a climate leader Equity Impacts The Office of Equity and Human Rights (OEHR) presented Racial Equity Goals and Strategies to City Council on July 8, 2015. The City Council unanimously adopted the goals and strategies as binding City policy, providing a guidepost for City employees and leadership to follow to achieve the racial equity goals. The Mayor’s Office implements these racial equity goals and strategies in a variety of ways, promoting equity and inclusion both within the Mayor’s Office and through the Mayor’s policy agenda. The Mayor’s Office has a diverse staff, and the Office relies upon that diversity in lived experiences to best serve Portland. The Mayor’s Office applies an equity lens to all its efforts and decisions. The Office also heavily relies on data from its bureaus to make policy decisions and ensure that the City makes progress on its equity goals. Additionally, the Mayor’s Office reaches out into the community and works with other institutions and community groups to collaborate and receive input.
