The Bonney Lake City Council on May 14 approved Motion M24-44 allowing the city’s recreation program to spend up to $140,000 more than it brings in during 2024 to maintain operations and programming.
Council discussion acknowledged repeated and extensive committee review of recreation funding and emphasized that the authorization is a short-term measure while staff and the mayor work to identify sustainable funding. Councilmembers noted multiple approaches were under consideration to support the program and that city administration (including David Wells working with the mayor) would continue to pursue funding options.
The motion was introduced by the clerk, moved and seconded, and adopted by voice vote. The transcript records council debate about funding options but does not provide a roll-call tally.
