#BREAKING: Portland City Council passes its amended Moda term sheet 8-4. #RipCity

Councilor Sameer Kanal said he plans to vote yes today, and he thinks if City Council doesn't pass a term sheet today then negotiations are done.

Councilor Candace Avalos just said she'll vote no today, but said that vote is not a no against the Blazers or the progress the city has made. She made a call to the city's negotiating team to keep going to better the city's position.

Councilor Olivia Clark just said she doesn’t think this deal is a “bailout for a billionaire”. The comments got some audible reaction from people holding signs in the crowd. – at Portland, OR

As the vote looms, councilors are going around making their final statements. So far two have said they'll vote yes on the term sheet, and two have said no.

The amendment fails with a 6-6 tie.

Councilor Angelita Morillo is once again bringing forward an amendment that'd give City Council extra time to work through funding decisions. It'd make the City Administrator and CFO give council detailed reports 15 days before council needs to vote on any action.

The amendment is approved in a 7-5 vote. Council President Jamie Dunphy casting the deciding vote. No's: Zimmerman, Pirtle-Guiney, Clark, Smith, Ryan.

Novick mentioned Blazers Pres. of Business Ops Dewayne Hankins's previous comments where he said no team would sign a lease that keeps them in the red. Novick said why should the City do the same, so he proposed raising that rent to closer line up with the city's contribution.
