Summary
The City Council approved the consent agenda and voted to postpone the public hearing and vote on a property annexation petition to a date certain of September 4; both motions passed without recorded opposition.
The Mountlake Terrace City Council approved its consent agenda and moved the public hearing and vote on a property annexation petition to a date certain of Sept. 4 during Wednesday’s meeting.
A motion to approve the consent agenda items A and B was moved and seconded and the council voiced its approval. The meeting record shows the motion passed.
On a separate item, a council member moved to “postpone the public hearing and vote on property annexation petition to date certain of September 4.” An amended phrasing using the words “date certain September 4” was offered and the motion was seconded; the council voted in favor.
Why it matters: postponing the annexation hearing gives staff additional time to correct a typographical error in the public notice for the annexation property and ensures the hearing and vote occur after corrected notice is provided.
