Final Shoreline Council Meeting of August is Tonight; Executive Session to Precede It

The final Shoreline City Council meeting of August will be held today, Monday, Aug. 13 at 7 p.m. at City Hall's Council Chambers.

Prior to the main meeting, in Conference Room 104, at 5:15 p.m. the Council will discuss Council operations. It's possible that the proposed plastic bag ban will be discussed. That is open to the public. At 6:15 p.m., the Council will go into a closed door executive session to discuss litigation, according to the Council agenda. That executive session is not open to the public, per state law, although some critics maintain that the Council discusses things other "pending litigation."

Do they? Well, the meeting isn't public, so Patch has no idea unless someone who was there says that happened. And so far that hasn't happened. To Patch's knowledge.

The Council will go on recess for the remainder of the month, and returns to action on Tues. Sept. 4 at 7 p.m.
