Council reappoints planning commissioners, appoints student commissioner and proclaims International Day of the Girl
Summary
Council reappointed Eugene Hirschl and Charles Jenks to the planning commission, appointed Megan Bollinger as the Parks & Arts student commissioner, and unanimously adopted a proclamation recognizing International Day of the Girl. Friends of the Library also received an Eastern Humanities Washington award mention.
At its Nov. 18 meeting, the Liberty Lake City Council handled several personnel and ceremonial items before workshop discussions.
The council reappointed Eugene Hirschl to the planning commission after Hirschl described his local and professional background and why he wanted to continue serving. The council also reappointed Charles Jenks to the planning commission; Jenks noted past public-works and planning experience from Maui.
Nancy Hill, chair of Parks & Arts, recommended Ridgeline High School senior Megan Bollinger for the Parks & Arts student commissioner seat; council appointed her to the student position. Hill said Bollinger was recommended by a Ridgeline art teacher and would bring the student perspective to parks and arts programming.
Council unanimously adopted a proclamation recognizing International Day of the Girl and invited Girl Scout leaders and members to the dais for remarks and a photo; the local Girl Scouts CEO noted membership growth and troop contributions including donated cookies for service members.
The Friends of the Liberty Lake Library were recognized as recipients of a 2025 Eastern Humanities Washington philanthropic award for local literacy and programming support.
What’s next: Appointments take effect immediately; staff will include student commissioner participation in Parks & Arts agendas and schedule the student’s term through the end of the school year.
