Operative words
The Multnomah County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Thursday, April 9, to extend a declaration of emergency in response to the COVID-19 pandemic by 90 days. The original declaration was set to expire April 10. All extensions require board approval.... The extension also adds to the initial declaration. Assistant County Attorney David Blankfeld said the extension adds a civil fine component to help with enforcing any violation of the emergency declaration -- up to $1,000 per day per offense.... The extension approved Thursday also highlights anew the County's ability to commandeer private property.
Enforcement
Civil fine up to $1,000 per day per offense (added by this extension)
