Nooksack council preliminarily adopts 2026 Water System Plan Update
Summary
The Nooksack City Council approved Resolution No. 342 to preliminarily adopt the 2026 Comprehensive Water System Plan Update and will submit the plan to the Washington State Department of Health; council reopened a public hearing at 7:05 PM, heard no public comment, and approved the measure.
The Nooksack City Council on June 1, 2026 voted to preliminarily adopt the city's 2026 Comprehensive Water System Plan Update.
City Planner Rollin Harper introduced Resolution No. 342, saying the next step is to submit the adopted plan to the Washington State Department of Health. Mayor Kevin Hester recessed the regular meeting to reopen a continuation public hearing on the water plan at 7:05 PM, but there was no public comment and the mayor closed the hearing and returned to the regular session. Councilmember Randy Relethford moved to approve Resolution No. 342; Councilmember Steve Neyens seconded and the motion carried as recorded in the minutes.
The council's action records the preliminary adoption only; Harper told the council the Department of Health submission is the next procedural step before the plan becomes final. The transcript does not record a roll-call vote or individual vote tallies for the motion. The council did not receive or record any public testimony during the reopened hearing.
The council did not specify an implementation timeline in the recorded minutes; the staff presentation identified only that the plan will be submitted to the Department of Health for review.
