Merger with Middletown will not proceed after insufficient yes votes, council told
Summary
Commissioner Kristen Hedden reported that only 24 'yes' votes were received by the cutoff date on the proposed merger with Middletown, so the effort will not move forward at this time.
The proposed merger between Woodland Hills and Middletown will not proceed after the city received only 24 'yes' votes by the deadline, Commissioner Kristen Hedden reported at the April 22 council meeting.
Hedden said the vote total fell short of whatever threshold the effort required, and the council recorded that the merger effort will not move forward at this time. No formal action or further votes on the merger were taken at the meeting.
Council members did not add new direction on next steps during the meeting; any future consideration would require renewed outreach or another formal proposal.
