Skagit County sets public hearing on CDBG public-service closeout; commissioner recuses
Summary
The Skagit County Board of Commissioners scheduled a public hearing for June 16 on the 2025–26 CDBG Public Service closeout report and the 2026–27 application; one commissioner recused because of service on the Community Action Board and the resolution passed.
The Skagit County Board of Commissioners voted May 18 to set a public hearing for Tuesday, June 16, at 11:45 a.m. to consider testimony on the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Service 2025–26 closeout report and the 2026–27 application.
The measure was introduced as a miscellaneous agenda item calling for the hearing. The Chair said they must recuse from any matter “potentially dealing with” the Community Action Board because they serve on that board, and the record shows one recusal was noted before the vote. A commissioner moved to approve the miscellaneous agenda item and another commissioner seconded; the board approved the measure.
The resolution directs the clerk to schedule the hearing in the commissioner hearing room on June 16, 2026, at 11:45 a.m. or as soon thereafter as possible to receive public testimony on the CDBG closeout and upcoming application. The transcript does not specify further details of the 2026–27 application, including proposed funding uses, applicant organizations, or dollar amounts.
No formal discussion of substantive program allocations or recipients occurred at the May 18 meeting; commissioners described the item procedurally before approving the hearing. The board will consider public comments and any staff reports at the scheduled hearing before taking further action.
