Council adopts WCCLS levy support resolution; accepts ODOT traffic‑safety grants
Summary
Tualatin City Council on Sept. 8 unanimously adopted Resolution No. 5911‑25 supporting replacement of the Washington County Cooperative Library Services local option levy and approved consent items accepting three Oregon Department of Transportation traffic enforcement grants (Resolutions 5908‑25, 5909‑25, 5910‑25).
Tualatin City Council on Sept. 8 adopted a resolution supporting the replacement of the Washington County Cooperative Library Services (WCCLS) local option levy and approved consent‑agenda items accepting traffic‑safety grants from the Oregon Department of Transportation.
The council voted unanimously to adopt Resolution No. 5911‑25, which the staff summary described as a request from local library supporters to back ballot measure 34‑345, the WCCLS local option levy replacement. During the roll call for Resolution 5911‑25, Councilor Hillier voted "Aye," Councilor Reyes "Yes," Councilor Gonzalez "Yes," Councilor Brooks "Aye," and Council President Pratt "Aye." The chair announced the vote was unanimous and the resolution was adopted.
The consent agenda — adopted in a single motion and described by staff as routine unless removed — included approval of the work‑session and regular meeting minutes of Aug. 25, 2025, and consideration of Resolution Nos. 5908‑25, 5909‑25 and 5910‑25 accepting grant funds for traffic safety enforcement through the Oregon Department of Transportation. The council approved the consent agenda by motion, second and unanimous voice vote.
Why it matters: The WCCLS levy support signals municipal backing for a library funding measure that will appear to local voters. The accepted ODOT grants provide state‑level funding for traffic enforcement activities; the grant acceptance was processed as routine consent and did not prompt separate debate.
