The Pacific City Council voted unanimously March 24 to approve its consent agenda, including resolutions that name the Auburn Reporter as the city’s official newspaper and accept a WSDOT J‑Design agreement for the Ellingson Overlay Project.
Councilmember Katie Garberding moved to approve the consent agenda, which also included claims vouchers #60672–#60735, payroll vouchers and minutes from the March 10 regular meeting and workshop. Council Member Putnam seconded; a roll call vote recorded six ayes, zero nays and one absence (Councilmember Boles). The motion carried 6-0.
Resolution 2025‑981 designates the Auburn Reporter as the city’s official newspaper for legal notices and similar publications. Resolution 2025‑982 approves a WSDOT J‑Design agreement related to the Ellingson Overlay Project; the consent item summary in the minutes identifies the agreement but does not provide contract value or implementation timeline.
City Clerk Laurie Cassell recorded the vote. The council did not discuss changes to either resolution on the record during the meeting.
The council’s consent action finalizes administrative approvals placed on the consent agenda; the minutes show no separate public comment or debate on these items. Any contract or project-level questions about the Ellingson Overlay Project, including schedule and funding, were not specified in the meeting record and would require follow-up with Public Works staff.
