Moses Lake City Council Live Stream

At the November 11, 2026, Moses Lake City Council meeting, staff presented the proposed 2027 property-tax levy for adoption on November 24. Because Grant County had not yet provided final assessed values and new-construction figures, the city expects to approve a levy amount before it can confirm the final rate. Staff recommended not adding a $357,000 refund levy, which would increase the estimated rate by about 3.3%, because it was not included in the budget. No levy adoption vote occurred at this meeting. The council also discussed downtown enhancements, including potential streetlights, street furniture, shade, and improvements to public spaces. These concepts remain under study; staff plans to return December 15 with more developed options. Potential funding sources include roughly $200,000–$250,000 annually from the Main Street tax credit, city funds, and state or other grants. No project award or construction spending was approved.
