Board of Health adopts 2025 work plan to guide monthly briefings and priorities
Summary
The King County Board of Health voted to adopt Resolution 25‑02, the board’s 2025 work plan, setting briefing topics and meeting priorities for the year; the resolution passed by roll call after board member discussion.
The King County Board of Health on Feb. 20 adopted Resolution 25‑02, its 2025 work plan outlining priorities and briefing topics for the year, including HIV/STI briefings, maternal and infant health, aging population health and a traffic safety briefing tied to the Target Zero initiative.
Chair Teresa Mosqueda and board staff described the work plan as the product of board member suggestions and staff consolidation to identify overlapping priorities and ensure coverage across monthly meetings. The plan separates maternal and birthing health from infant health with two discrete briefings and adds a health‑of‑aging population briefing; staff also noted a scheduling change to move the June meeting from June 19 because of a holiday.
Board members expressed appreciation for the staff effort to integrate member suggestions. Vice Chair Lam moved adoption; the clerk called the roll and the clerk announced the vote as 13 ayes. The board adopted the plan and staff said they would schedule briefings and circulate any updated material to members.
Why it matters: The work plan sets the Board of Health’s formal agenda for 2025 and determines which areas—ranging from infectious disease briefings to environmental and maternal health topics—receive scheduled board attention and staff resources.
Next steps: Staff will implement the plan, schedule briefings, and circulate any packet changes and updated dates to board members.
