Waco City Council approves consent agenda and multiple resolutions, including Baylor Marathon street closures
Summary
At its Feb. 17 meeting, the council approved the consent agenda (with two items pulled earlier), individually approved resolution 2026‑102 and 2026‑119 (the Baylor Marathon street closures), and later corrected and approved resolution 2026‑101; Josh Border did not vote on the marathon item because of an affidavit related to his employment.
The Waco City Council on Feb. 17 approved its consent agenda and a set of individual resolutions, including a street‑closure package for the Baylor Marathon.
The council first moved and passed the consent agenda (items 2026‑094; 2026‑095 through 2026‑119) after noting items 2026‑101 and 2026‑119 were being handled separately. A roll call showed council members voting in the affirmative and the motion passed.
Councils actions taken in the meeting:
- Consent agenda approval: Motion passed on roll call. Council members recorded as voting yes included Lozano, Porter Root, Barefield, Ewing, Chase and Holmes.
- Resolution 2026‑102: Considered individually and approved after motion, second and roll‑call vote.
- Resolution 2026‑119 (Baylor Marathon street closures): Approved on roll call. The mayor noted that Josh Border is a Baylor employee and an affidavit was on file; Border did not vote on the item.
- Resolution 2026‑101: After the mayor noted an earlier misstatement of item numbers, the council returned to and approved resolution 2026‑101 by motion and roll‑call vote.
What this means: The recorded votes show the council approved routine business and event‑related street closures; no ordinance hearings or public hearings took place that night. The record does not show further conditions or implementation details for the approved resolutions; follow‑up or administrative steps will be reflected in staff records and subsequent agendas.
The meeting adjourned at 6:24 p.m.
