Mason County commissioners on Nov. 25 voted to establish 25 mile‑per‑hour speed limits on Yates Road (County Road No. 36600) and Ellis Road (County Road No. 15960).

Loretta Swanson (Public Works) briefed that this summer the county converted the two roads from primitive surfaces to paved or chip‑sealed roads, which requires updated signage and posted limits. After opening public comment with no speakers, a commissioner moved to adopt the two ordinances as presented and the commission approved both motions by voice vote.

The ordinances take effect upon formal adoption and county staff will update signage to match the new posted limits.
