The Monroe City Council discussed the FY 2027 invoice from the Oregon Cascades West Council of Governments (OCWCOG) and did not approve payment on Sept. 28. A motion to pay the invoice failed, with three Councilors voting yes and three abstaining; the meeting record says Council requested additional information about services and benefits available to Monroe and South Benton County before further consideration.
Councilors asked staff to provide more detail about what OCWCOG would deliver specifically for Monroe and how the services would be funded or justified to local taxpayers. The meeting summary does not record whether staff committed to a timeline for that follow-up information.
