Council will consider meeting more

Grand Coulee’s council is going to look at meeting twice a month soon.

It came up at the council’s last meeting after the meeting lasted about 90 minutes, long for a Grand Coulee meeting.

Councilmember Tammara Byers brought it up, saying that she felt the council was rushed in making decisions.

She got immediate support from Councilmember David Tylor, who wanted to make a motion to change meetings to twice a month.

The council opted instead to put the issue on the agenda for its July meeting.

Grand Coulee’s council had historically met twice a month until a few months ago when the council voted to change it to a monthly meeting.

Grand Coulee typically has the shortest meetings of any of the four councils in the area.

Electric City now meets once a month; Coulee Dam meets twice a month, and Elmer City meets once a month.

The Grand Coulee Dam School District board meets twice a month.
