The Brookings City Council recorded the following formal actions during its Oct. 13 meeting:
1) Consent calendar approved — The council approved the consent calendar, which included council minutes from Sept. 22, 2025, and planning commission minutes from July 1, 2025. Motion carried.
2) Reedsport Flood Reduction Resiliency Project — The council authorized the city manager to draft a letter of support for Reedsport’s project and to contact Gold Beach, Port Orford and Curry County about a joint or coordinated set of letters. Motion carried.
3) City manager employment agreement amendment — The council authorized the mayor to sign the first amendment to the city manager employment agreement to align the manager’s compensation with the Brookings management compensation plan, retroactive to July 1, 2025. Motion carried.
Vote details: Motions were moved and seconded in each case; the meeting audio records the decisions as carried. The transcript did not provide a full roll-call with every council member’s name for each item; the mayor announced the motions carried following recorded voice votes.
Why it matters: These actions implement administrative and intergovernmental directions (staff letter-drafting and a personnel compensation amendment) and finalize routine minutes acceptance.
