Lake Forest Park’s City Council approved its 2026 meeting calendar Thursday and voted to cancel the remaining regular council meetings for 2025.

Clerk Clark McClain presented the proposed schedule and the council moved two committee-of-the-whole meetings that would otherwise fall on holidays: the January COW was set for Jan. 12 (6–8 p.m.), and the May COW for May 28 at 6 p.m. Councilmembers discussed calendar conflicts and staffing considerations and agreed the dates were preferable to publishing meetings on holiday dates. The council also voted to cancel the remaining 2025 council meetings so members could observe the holidays.

The calendar motion and the cancellation motion each passed by voice vote.

Next steps: clerks will publish the adopted 2026 calendar and staff will schedule related agenda planning and public notifications.
