Members pass resolution backing legislation; OKs survey work for proposed extension of Russell Street
In what was a short meeting, the Airway Heights City Council followed suit with the city of Cheney by supporting legislation that would increase the number of Spokane County commissioners.
At its Feb. 16 meeting, council approved a resolution supporting House Bill 2610 and its companion measure Senate Bill 6514. Both would require non-charter counties with populations of 300,000 and more to establish a redistricting committee by Jan. 31, 2017 and divide the county into five commissioner districts. It also requires those counties to hold district-based elections of commissioners by 2018.
