Summary
Council voted to table a proposed memorandum of understanding among Stanton, Waynesboro and Augusta County on a new regional animal shelter at 1011 Lee Highway in Verona pending staff review of recent changes to the draft MOU.
Waynesboro City Council on Oct. 15 voted to table action on a proposed memorandum of understanding among the cities of Stanton and Waynesboro and the county of Augusta concerning a new animal shelter proposed at 1011 Lee Highway in Verona.
Mayor (presiding) said staff had not vetted a recent change to the MOU. Councilmember Mister Short moved to table the item until staff could review the revised language; the motion was seconded and passed by voice vote.
Why it matters: The MOU would govern interjurisdictional responsibilities for a regional animal shelter; tabling the item delays any authorization for the city manager to execute the agreement until staff completes its review.
What—s next: Staff will review the revised MOU language and the item will return to council for further consideration when staff has completed its review.
