Votes at a glance: Guthrie parks board approves minutes, elects vice chair and recommends Liberty Lake memorial bench
Summary
At its Sept. 25 meeting the Guthrie Parks and Urban Forestry Board approved May minutes, appointed Carol Tsai vice chair and voted to recommend a family‑funded memorial fishing bench for Liberty Lake to the city council; all recorded voice votes were unanimous (6–0).
The Parks and Urban Forestry Board recorded three formal, recorded actions during the Sept. 25 meeting:
1) Approval of minutes (May 15, 2025): A board member moved to approve the minutes and the motion was seconded; the chair called for the question and the board voted in favor, recorded as 6–0. (Transcript: SEG 005–026)
2) Vice chair appointment: With the vice chair vacancy noted, members nominated Carol Tsai; the motion to appoint her passed on a voice vote recorded as 6–0. (Transcript: SEG 159–211)
3) Recommendation to city council for a memorial fishing bench at Liberty Lake: Staff described a family‑funded bench and plaque in memory of Kyle Wayne Brooks and said staff had prepared a draft resolution to forward to the city manager and council; the board voted to recommend the bench to council on a voice vote recorded as 6–0. Staff clarified the family would pay for the bench; members discussed plaque placement and offered to coordinate installation. (Transcript: SEG 212–304)
No additional ordinances, resolutions or contract awards were approved at the meeting, and the transcript shows no council‑level final action on any matter; the board’s votes were recommendations or routine board business except for the procedural minutes approval and officer appointment.
