# Mountlake Terrace City Council Meeting - August 6, 2026

The Mountlake Terrace City Council meeting was held August 6, 2026. The council adopted an ordinance, by a 6–0 vote, restoring language for the city’s existing violations bureau that had been inadvertently removed during a code update. Staff said the change allows violations to be processed locally rather than through South County District Court, avoiding the associated court overhead fee. No contracts, bids, vendor selections, or other procurement actions were identified. A scheduled presentation was postponed to August 20 because of software compatibility issues; the August 13 work session was canceled because there were no agenda items.

Other discussion included public comment about COVID-19 and wildfire-smoke precautions, with the mayor noting planned collaboration with the Snohomish Health Department; presentations by youth participants on their community involvement; and council liaison reports on local events and regional matters. The council also excused an absent member. The consent agenda passed 6–0. No procurement-related budget allocations or purchasing decisions were reported.
