The Shelton City Council on Nov. 4 took several procedural and substantive actions and moved multiple agenda items to the Nov. 18 action meeting for final consideration. Below is a concise list of motions and outcomes recorded in the Nov. 4 meeting transcript.
Adopted on Nov. 4 (immediate action)
- Resolution No. 1407-1025: Accept Association of Washington Cities (AWC) Alternative Response Team grant (~$168,774.97) and waive the three-touch rule to adopt tonight — adopted by voice vote. - Resolution No. 1413-1025: Authorize city manager to sign interlocal agreement with North Mason Regional Fire Authority for a certified peer support specialist — adopted by voice vote.
Forwarded to Nov. 18 for action or public hearing
- Resolution No. 1409-1025: Authorize Mason County Garbage Company to increase solid-waste and recycling rates effective January 2026 — placed on Nov. 18 council action agenda for further consideration (motion carried). - Ordinance No. 2036-1025: Amend Shelton Municipal Code chapter 5.46 (special events/special use of buildings) — forwarded to Nov. 18 action agenda. - Reclaimed-water tank project award (500,000-gallon tank, bids received) — placed on Nov. 18 action agenda for award and contract approval. - Ordinance No. 2034-1025: Set 2026 ad valorem taxes (initial levies for city and EMS) — forwarded for public hearing and further consideration on Nov. 18. - Ordinance No. 2035-1025 (noted in meeting materials as the 2026 budget ordinance): Move forward to Nov. 18 action agenda for public hearing and adoption.
Procedure notes: Several items were advanced by motion and second and carried on voice votes; the transcript records general “Aye” voice votes and does not provide a roll-call tally for each item. When the council adopted the AWC grant and interlocal agreement, they explicitly waived the standard three-touch rule to permit same-night action.
What to expect next: Each item forwarded to Nov. 18 will include supporting materials, staff recommendations and (where required) a public hearing before final council action.
