Council approved a resolution authorizing the mayor (or designee) to cast the city's written support for Judge Clark as primary representative to the Regional Transportation Council (Parker-Wise cluster), with the Parker County judge as alternate; council authorized staff to transmit written support.

City staff asked council to approve a resolution giving the citys written support for the Regional Transportation Council (RTC) representative in the Parker-Wise County cluster. Staff explained the RTC plays an advisory role on transportation initiatives across the two counties and said the Parker County judge has historically held the chair seat. Staff recommended supporting Wise County Judge Clark as the primary representative and the Parker County judge as alternate and asked council to authorize staff to submit written support when the RTC appoints seats.

A council member moved to approve the resolution (R-2026-06-15) to cast the city's vote and designate staff authority to submit the support letter; the motion passed by voice vote. Staff said authorization will allow them to record the city's support when RTC board appointments are made.
