Council President Kerry Garberding called a City of Pacific workshop to order at 7:31 p.m. on Feb. 9, 2026.

The minutes record no formal council discussion, motions, or public comments during the workshop.
The presentation, delivered by Public Works Director Rick Gehrke, was recorded as a summary of the NPDES permit process requirements. The minutes do not list specific permit conditions, numeric discharge limits, compliance deadlines, or permit submittal schedules. Gehrke also provided updates on ongoing public-works projects; the minutes note the updates without naming projects, budgets, or timelines.
City Administrator George Martinez, Finance Director Beth Wright and City Clerk Laurie Cassell were noted as present. The agenda listed no additions or changes. The workshop was adjourned by Council President Kerry Garberding at 7:50 p.m., and no votes or formal actions appear in the minutes.
The minutes provide an overview of topics covered but lack detailed substance on the NPDES presentation and project updates. For residents and stakeholders seeking regulatory specifics—such as required permit tasks, compliance deadlines, or project schedules—staff follow-up or the presentation materials would be needed, as those details are not included in the official minutes.
