Chief: calls rising; Morton PD staffing still short
Summary
Chief Cole Cournyer reported increased call volume to Mossyrock and said some calls (including those on Damron Road) are handled by the county; Morton Police Department is still working to reach full staffing levels.
Chief Cole Cournyer reported a continued rise in calls to the City of Mossyrock. The minutes record the chief noting that some calls — for example on Damron Road — are handled by the county, and that the Morton Police Department is "still working on getting fully staffed" and "may have a possibility here in the near future."
The minutes present the update as informational; no formal request for additional local funding or mutual-aid agreements appears in the record. The council asked for monitoring of call patterns but the minutes do not list follow-up tasks or a timeline for staffing improvements.
