Executive Board Election Results

Welcome to the newest Executive Board members:

At Large Position 1 (Portland Building):
Stacy Brewster (he/him), Coordinator II, PBOT


Stacy has worked at the city since 2008, first as a Commissioner’s Rep in City Hall for 10 years, then as a Coordinator on the communications team at PBOT as a writer, copy editor, and web lead, with a policy and training focus on language access, digital accessibility, and plain language. A longtime member of the Queer Alliance and City Disability Network resource groups, he is a staunch advocate for queer, trans, and disability rights in the workplace, including hybrid and remote work. An Oregon Literary Arts fellow in drama, and published fiction writer and poet, Stacy has also worked in television, advertising, nonprofits, publishing, and political campaigns. He’s focused on securing a strong contract, growing our capacity to connect with both new and seasoned staff, and helping guide our communications for the fights to come.

At Large Position 2:
August Burns (they/them), Coordinator II BPS (Multifamily and Commercial Building Decarbonization Project Manager for PCEF)

I’ve been with the city for about a year and a half in total, with PCEF since August 2024. I’m looking forward to helping advocate for a strong contract, equitable policies, and strong member engagement. I hope to put my community digital engagement and website management skills to use for the good of the union. I want to help build whatever systems and tools are needed to support the growth of CPPW & our members. This work and union are important to me because I am a lifetime Portlander; I believe in this city and the workers that bring it to life – a strong and supported union make for a great workforce, which in turn makes a great city. I’m honored to be apart of this.
