Council reports: youth-council interviews and local firefighter death noted
Summary
Councilmembers reported on community engagement events including a well-attended "Coffee with Council," youth council interviews with more than 30 applicants, and relayed news that a Lacey Fire District 3 firefighter had died; the meeting adjourned after reports.
Councilmembers used their reports to highlight local engagement and a community tragedy.
Councilmembers said the city's first "Coffee with Council" event had strong turnout, and one member reported she and a colleague conducted youth-council interviews with more than 30 applicants for roughly eight positions. "I always really like to cherish the time I get to talk to all the youth applicants," the presiding official said.
In closing remarks, the mayor noted that Lacey Fire District 3 had lost a firefighter and that the community was grieving the young firefighter's death. After the reports and a moment of recognition, the mayor adjourned the work session.
