ITEM TITLE:City of Yakima delegation trip to Washington, D.C.
SUBMITTED BY:Randy Beehler, Communications & Public Affairs Director
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:

At the June 14, 2022 study session, Council approved a trip to Washington, D.C. for a delegation of Council members and City staff in September 2022.  In addition to the delegation visiting the offices of Senator Murray, Senator Cantwell, and Representative Newhouse, it would also be visiting with leaders of federal agencies.

 

Several councilmembers have indicated they are available to be part of the delegation; however, due to requirements of the Washington State Open Public Meeting Act, no more than three members of the City Council would be able to be part of the delegation.  Therefore, Council needs to determine who will be attending as part of the delegation.
