Commissioners authorize chair to sign Growth Management Act grant extension (contract 20310051)
Summary
The Walla Walla County Board authorized the chair to sign interagency agreement contract 20310051 to extend the Growth Management Act Periodic Update Grant through Dec. 31, 2026, a change made to conform with a state deadline extension; the motion passed 3–0.
Walla Walla County commissioners on April 27 authorized the board chair to sign interagency agreement contract number 20310051 for the Growth Management Act (GMA) Periodic Update Grant for fiscal year 2026, formally extending the contract through Dec. 31 to align with a statewide deadline extension.
County staff said the extension reflects the state’s updated deadline. A commissioner asked whether a staff member named Melissa was available online to answer questions; staff confirmed a memo had been provided and no objections were raised.
One commissioner said he believed the administrative step had already been completed but supported making it official. The motion to authorize the chair to sign the interagency agreement was moved, seconded and approved unanimously (3–0).
The contract is with the Washington State Department of Commerce; the board did not amend grant terms beyond extending the date. Commissioners did not request additional fiscal detail at the meeting.
