Orting board approves enrichment-levy resolution, consent agenda and surplus list
Summary
The board approved the consent agenda (items 1–11), adopted Resolution 3Dot2025Dash2026 to place an enrichment levy on the February ballot (district said it will collect the same amount as the expiring levy), and accepted a surplus equipment list to clear unneeded items.
At the meeting the board approved routine business and three specific actions: the consent agenda (items 1–11) was adopted by motion and voice vote; the board adopted a resolution authorizing the district’s enrichment levy for the February ballot; and the board accepted a surplus list that permits staff to remove or dispose of identified items.
Director Fries presented the levy measure and emphasized the district did not propose an increase: staff said the new levy would collect essentially the same amount as the prior four-year levy and would not raise the district’s levy rate. A motion to adopt "Resolution number 3Dot2025Dash2026 for the enrichment levy" was moved and seconded; members voted by voice and the motion passed. The consent agenda containing routine items also passed by voice vote after a motion to approve items 1–11.
The board accepted the surplus list presented in the board memo with a separate motion and voice vote. No roll-call tallies were recorded in the public transcript; meeting minutes and the official board packet are the district’s record for itemized amounts and the full surplus list.
