Mukilteo council unanimously votes to notify Snohomish County to extend Emergency Management Services interlocal agreement

The Mukilteo City Council unanimously approved a motion May 11 directing the mayor to notify Snohomish County of the city’s intent to extend the Emergency Management Services interlocal agreement.

Council Member Champion introduced the motion, saying he "would like to make the motion for the mayor to notify Snohomish County of the city's intent to extend the Emergency Management Services interlocal agreement." The mayor asked for a second from Council Vice President Emery and, seeing no discussion, called for a voice vote. The mayor said the measure "will pass unanimously." The transcript records no roll‑call vote or individual tallies.

The motion does not include details on the extension’s length, funding changes or new terms in the transcript. The council did not discuss amendments or a timeline for finalizing the extended agreement during the portion recorded on the public record; the mayor indicated the next procedural step was to notify the county as the city had agreed.

The action takes place against broader remarks at the meeting about the recently passed EMS levy, which Director Nunez said will reduce the general fund transfer to EMS operations. The transcript does not include the text of the interlocal agreement or legal citations; those documents were not read into the public record during the recorded discussion.

The city’s next procedural step, as captured in the meeting, is the mayor’s notification to Snohomish County; the transcript does not record further scheduling or a public hearing connected to the extension.
