# Regular Council Meeting 09/16/26

The City of Cosmopolis Regular Council Meeting was held September 16, 2026. The council approved Resolution 2026-03 adopting the 2027–2033 six-year Transportation Improvement Plan; no specific projects, costs, or funding awards were identified in the transcript. The mayor reported that the city is documenting sidewalk conditions and plans to seek three bids for repairs, while exploring a Transportation Improvement Board grant application with assistance from the county Council of Governments. These were planning steps, not bid approvals or contract awards. The council also approved Ordinance 1407 directing development of street-tree guidelines; discussion included possibly consulting an arborist, but no consultant or funding was approved. A proposed special-event parking ordinance, No. 1408, was discussed, but the transcript does not capture a motion or vote on it.

The CPA presented preliminary 2027 general-fund revenue estimates as part of the statutory budget process, explaining a proposed presentation change to show all property- and utility-tax revenue in the general fund with a transfer to the street fund; no complete figures are clear in the transcript. A private citizen also presented information about a proposed Timberland Regional Library levy, which was not a city procurement or council spending decision. The city administrator discussed staffing constraints, a deputy clerk offer that did not proceed, and the possible future use of engineering professional services, with no commitment made. No contract awards or purchasing approvals were identified.
