Public urges Lewis County commissioners to revisit resolution 25-158 and hold full vote
Summary
A Chehalis resident urged the board to bring back resolution 25-158 for a full vote after the prior meeting ended with a 1-1 split and one commissioner absent, arguing the county deserves a complete decision.
A member of the public urged the Lewis County Board of Commissioners on June 24 to bring resolution 25-158 back for a full vote after the measure did not receive a final decision at the prior meeting.
"My name is Ethan Brunton. I'm from Chehalis, and I'm here today to support resolution 25-158 and to ask the board to bring it back for a full vote," Ethan Brunton told the commissioners during the public comment period. Brunton said the prior meeting produced a 1-1 result because one commissioner was absent and that the people of the county "deserve a clear and complete answer with every voice at the table." He described the resolution as "about law and order" and "backing our law enforcement," and asked the board to "let the board vote again. Let it be fair. Let it be complete, and let it reflect the strength of this county."
Brunton's remarks were part of the public comment period; the transcript does not show further discussion or any formal action by the board on revisiting resolution 25-158 at this meeting.
Why it matters: public commenters asked for the board to readdress a previously undecided resolution so that all commissioners can participate in a final vote.
