Commission votes to extend emergency economic-declaration for one week amid storm threat
Summary
The commission authorized an extension of the city’s emergency economic-disaster declaration for an additional week so the city can make emergency purchases and coordinate recovery while the storm is imminent; motion passed by voice vote.
The chair asked the commission to authorize extending the economic disaster declaration tied to recent fire damage and to give staff authority to act if needed during the approaching storm. The chair said she can sign the declaration once but needed the commission’s authority to extend it further.
"I have the power to go ahead and sign it 1 time, but I have to have you guys give me the authority to extend it," Chair (S1) said. Committee member (S8) moved to extend the declaration an additional week; Committee member (S2) seconded. After brief discussion about timing relative to the county declaration, the commission voted in favor by voice vote.
