What happened

The council voted down a proposal to charge fees for reviewing and editing audio and video records requests, with Choi and Willis voting no. The city currently provides electronic records like police body camera footage for free under the Public Records Act.

The council approved 23 routine items on consent, including a $695,810 contract to build a missing section of the North Shore Bay Trail. Other notable items included purchasing three used Ford vans for $94,000 and accepting a $112,500 grant for Richmond Parkway traffic signal coordination.

The council approved updated transportation impact fees for new development projects. These fees help pay for road improvements needed when new construction increases traffic in the area.
