Summary

Council discussed AB 2505 to designate Katherine Ford as the city's representative to the Pierce County Conservation Futures Advisory Board; members clarified the board's correct name and noted the city cannot appoint a sitting council member, and the nomination will be brought forward on the consent calendar.

Council members discussed AB 2505, a discussion-only item to designate Katherine (spelled in the agenda materials as Katherine) Ford as Bonney Lake’s representative to the Pierce County Conservation Futures and Open Space Citizens Advisory Committee.

The council clerk read the item title and one council member corrected the record to state the program is the “Conservation Futures,” not “Conservative.” The council noted that city bylaws or Pierce County rules prevent a sitting council member from serving on the advisory committee; staff confirmed the applicant, Katherine Ford, is the lone applicant and the city is overdue in making an appointment. Council members agreed to move the item forward for placement on the consent agenda at the next council meeting so the city can meet Pierce County’s timing needs.
