During a recent government meeting, discussions centered around the future of the 6th Avenue trolley tracks, with members expressing varying opinions on the proposed designs for the area. The conversation highlighted the community's mixed feelings about the trolley system, as some council members noted the inconsistency in public support, citing recent editorials that praised the trolleys one week while questioning their viability the next.

A proposal to send a letter of support for the first design concept, which includes wider sidewalks, bike paths, and the preservation of trolley tracks, was discussed. The commission expressed a desire to formally endorse this concept, with one member suggesting that a knowledgeable individual should draft the letter for broader input.

The meeting also touched on the potential for extending trolley tracks to the civic center in Sila, indicating a push from local council members for further integration of the trolley system into the community. Members acknowledged the historical significance of the trolley tracks and the importance of maintaining them as part of Yakima's heritage.

As the meeting concluded, there was a call for individual members to advocate for the trolley system by voting on the proposed designs, emphasizing the need for community engagement in the decision-making process. The discussions reflect a growing interest in urban development and transportation options within the region, as stakeholders seek to balance historical preservation with modern infrastructure needs.
