Mayor announces municipal-court transition, new Civil Service Commission appointees and pool closure
Summary
Mayor Smith announced appointments to the Civil Service Commission (Michael Liu, Leone Edson, Vicki Hallowell), reported a signed agreement for the county to assume municipal court operations aiming for a transition by early next year, and noted the town pool has closed for the season.
Mayor Smith used his report to announce appointments and administrative items: Michael Liu, Leone Edson and Vicki Hallowell were appointed to the Civil Service Commission, and an agreement with the county to take over municipal court operations has been signed.
On the municipal-court transition Mayor Smith said staff are "moving to working with the Association of Courts to close Twisp Court and complete the transition to County hopefully by the beginning of the year." He also reported the public pool has closed for the season and thanked public works staff and lifeguards for their work; pool-use data will be analyzed to inform next year’s operations.
The council did not record additional direction about implementation timelines beyond the mayor’s target. The court transition will require coordination with county partners and the Association of Courts as described by the mayor.
