Steve (Community Development staff) read the proposed vision: “Wenatchee is an engaged, resilient, and inclusive city where innovation meets tradition rooted in the natural beauty of the Cascade Foothills and the Columbia River. We are a thriving hub of emerging technologies, clean energy, social and health care services, hospitality and outdoor recreation. The city provides an excellent infrastructure system with quality public services, great streets, and public spaces that meet the needs of its diverse community and visitors. Wenatchee honors its indigenous and agricultural heritage while purposefully shaping a future where all can live, work, and thrive.”

Council members gave generally positive feedback in the meeting record; staff said the vision will be vetted through the plan process and the public will have opportunities to comment. The item was treated as direction to staff rather than a formal, final adoption; staff noted the vision will be part of deliverables required for the state grant supporting the comprehensive plan update.","Council signaled consensus behind staff’s revised vision statement for the comprehensive plan update, describing Wenatchee as “an engaged, resilient and inclusive city where innovation meets tradition.” Staff will circulate the draft for public review as part of the plan process.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6199595,"Wenatchee council approves donation agreement to support museum renovation tied to state grant",172,661000,833000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3825120-052cd7529ba4f8ee8367e2c07a2e72ec&start=661&end=833","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3825120-052cd7529ba4f8ee8367e2c07a2e72ec/thumbnail_661000.jpg","/articles/6199595/Wenatchee-City/Chelan-County/Washington/Wenatchee-council-approves-donation-agreement-to-support-museum-renovation-tied-to-state-grant","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199595-d478b74b4ccc4edf5bde5ec5df287dab/orig.mp4?Expires=1771174090&Signature=J5K3ebKss4GiJWrv2hPzhqntVdND~93WUYlhVe-uAMu6GWH~VoTp5qs-fRby4h25HWOPfMsLZKr69n8grA10NKHS~ZdKs96lfHusxk3ZThgYuayPO14e7npXtS0ts1r-CwaCQpuE6vh2ZquXXenmwZlBIwrwYMFaRTt~VJj5CcL9FKd6NtDqycIXVF5GG5waXGzR1HpXrWxbHKUgTlq~3ukuXNY~oIsjmsNJ24Mvu~s3mXLj9oV5TDtOWejh6aDPhz0s3aqbpZKNk8ckRxqVyuzGpec2fnb-LK6gAuEzUvIxZOUGgCy~Lx2S3kfkX1oJ7TH-2Yh5x8lDWTVMHLEOfw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Wenatchee City Council approved a donation agreement to transfer city‑owned funds to the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center to align with a $1 million grant from the Washington State Historical Society.

City Administrator Laura Gloria summarized the agreement, telling the council the city owns the museum building at 127 S. Mission Street and the donation is specifically tied to a roughly $3 million capital scope of work described in the agreement: exterior structure and wall repairs, doors and windows, roof upgrades including vapor barriers and certain skylights, and seismic upgrades to portions of the building the city owns. The donation is a portion of the capital renovation work and is limited to the listed scope; “once that work is completed, our commitment is complete,” Gloria said.

Council member Cuevas moved approval and Council member Ewer seconded. Council approved the motion by voice vote.

Discussion versus decision: council approved the donation agreement and authorized the mayor’s signature; the action does not approve the entire project budget or additional phases beyond the scope in the donation agreement.","Council approved a donation agreement tying city funds to a $1 million Washington State Historical Society grant for exterior and structural renovations at the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6199601,"Wenatchee council authorizes grant agreements to extend homeless services through year end",617,854000,1471000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3825120-052cd7529ba4f8ee8367e2c07a2e72ec&start=854&end=1471","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3825120-052cd7529ba4f8ee8367e2c07a2e72ec/thumbnail_854000.jpg","/articles/6199601/Wenatchee-City/Chelan-County/Washington/Wenatchee-council-authorizes-grant-agreements-to-extend-homeless-services-through-year-end","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6199601-2e06515aa7872c280ed996fbe749a62f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771174090&Signature=UaU8YLmQniMJtVOIPU4ei3NAmKEACNb5Oyi1srTrxNFJDJ7xe08KWXBhtvFNkyKq6wECRDqPK-yXda~9Wt-BegxGmGlZYjA7fDodPWS6iSy0dT46fVU3wy8nsPlP0qRvakfkbQtwlRKISJ3kfWprpdUui5-JtzNQRuhBkM6~ZtOn6waNeRRRk9FLNpTJs7b8PK1B-fIiA7LbPGv6PAbFH8GEIQX8yB-HgwMevxVtQmT9BU~pTDcFVzkePANbJL6kvJ4wkvwmVS4Je7EyoILg5e~vkx-WTAxLNCKaaGnCsejkKRHi8PbicIdW5AlG6V~godKtYdPaWi6gFLnv6NJWzA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Wenatchee City Council authorized the mayor to enter into grant agreements extending contracts that fund emergency shelter, low‑barrier beds, outreach and permanent supportive housing through Dec. 31, 2025.

City staff presented recommendations from the Columbia River Homeless Housing Task Force to split a previously recommended 18‑month extension into a six‑month extension followed by a 12‑month renewal so staff and providers can address updated insurance requirements and align the work with the city’s budget process. Laura Gloria, Wenatchee city administrator, told the council the contracts were already included in the city budget and that staff want time to work on insurance and potential cost changes with providers.

Under the approved motion the city will make three grant commitments: $105,000 to the People’s Foundation for 50 low‑barrier shelter beds at Saint Francis House (contract period July 1–Dec. 2025); $533,535 to the Wenatchee Rescue Mission to support two RV emergency shelter parks, a low‑barrier sleep center (44 detached units / 90 beds), a congregate shelter (45 men's beds and 20 women's beds) and outreach for Wenatchee and East Wenatchee (July 1–Dec. 2025); and $50,946 to the Women’s Resource Center for operating support of 20 Miller Park permanent supportive housing units (July 2025–Dec. 2025).

Glenn (staff) and task force members explained that outreach teams and contract providers continue street outreach, offer diversion funds and work with partners to move people into emergency and permanent housing. Staff said most funding comes from the two‑cities local option tax shared by Wenatchee and East Wenatchee; smaller amounts come from recording fees and other restricted funds for new housing operations. Staff noted Wenatchee contributes a majority of the tax receipts between the two cities.

Council member Rojana Steen moved the authorization; Council member Hornby seconded. The council approved the motion by voice vote.

Discussion versus decision: council approved the grant agreements and a short (six‑month) extension framework; staff will return with further budget and insurance details and will continue task force review. The motion does not change program designs or add new permanent units beyond the contracts described. The council did not record individual roll‑call votes in the transcript.","The Wenatchee City Council authorized mayoral grant agreements to extend contracts for emergency shelter, low-barrier beds and permanent supportive housing through December 2025, funding providers including the Wenatchee Rescue Mission, People’s Foundation and Women’s Resource Center.","actionData","errors"]
