Summary
Coos County agreed to pursue external funding and consultant support, working with The Pew Charitable Trusts, to continue updates to the Coos Bay Estuary Management Plan; commissioners approved a resolution to that effect.
Coos County commissioners authorized staff to pursue outside funding and consultant support to continue updating the Coos Bay Estuary Management Plan. Staff said the update effort has stalled without funding and that they are working with The Pew Charitable Trusts to identify resources to hire a consultant for the next phase.
A motion to adopt Resolution 25‑10‑0215PL — supporting the pursuit of outside funding and consultant support for the estuary plan update — was made, seconded and approved. A commissioner noted the need to preread documents and keep agenda language clear, but the board approved the resolution by voice vote.
The transcript did not include the dollar target for the consultant work or a procurement timeline; staff will work with The Pew Charitable Trusts to advance the funding request and scope.
