Summary
On July 28, 2026, the Auburn City Council unanimously approved Ordinance 13072822, extending a 45-day moratorium prohibiting rent or fee increases at the Mobile Home Park; the council waived second reading and made the ordinance effective immediately.
The Auburn City Council on July 28, 2026, voted unanimously to approve Ordinance 13072822, extending a 45-day moratorium that prohibits rent or fee increases at the Mobile Home Park. Councilor Bridal moved for first reading and Councilor Walker seconded; the first-reading motion passed by a 7-0 roll-call vote.
The council then agreed to waive the required second reading so the extension could take effect before the ordinance’s August 1 expiration. After a subsequent motion to make the ordinance effective immediately — seconded by Councilor Cowen — the council again voted 7-0 in favor. The Chair recorded the outcome: "7 having voted in the affirmative and none in the negative, the motion's adopted." There were no members of the public present for comment.
Ordinance 13072822 was introduced as the meeting’s sole agenda item. The council completed the remaining housekeeping items and adjourned the special session after approving the moratorium extension and the motions to waive the second reading and to make the ordinance effective immediately.
