Meeting Highlights:
• 5-minute closed session for union negotiations
• Public Comment: Isabelle Spohn (IS) commented on extending the Methow Review District to Pateros, suggests the entire Methow Valley be included in 1 unit – because it is the same ecosystem. She points out a name discrepancy between the currently proposed District Use Chart (which uses the term "Methow Review District") and Resolution #098-2022 (which uses the term “Methow Valley More Completely Planned Area") and believes it is causing confusion. IS reminded the BOCC to respond to those who applied to the Planning Commission for the MVMCPA Subunit B and C committee positions. She says these applications need at least a response from the County as a courtesy to the people who applied.
• Auditor and Treasurer in Budgeting session for 2025. There will be a week to look at the final draft and comment.
• Meeting adjourned at 11:46
