Council suspends rules to add drive‑thru moratorium to tonight’s agenda
Spokane — Council moved to suspend the rules and add Ordinance C‑36865, a proposed drive‑thru moratorium, to tonight’s final agenda. Staff said the item was ready for briefing and recommended adding it for possible final action.

Spencer Gardiner introduced the item and answered a brief round of questions. The chair called for the suspension motion, which was seconded and carried by voice vote; the agenda item was added to tonight’s docket. Several council members expressed reservations about the substance of the policy but agreed to place the ordinance on the agenda for further debate.

The item will appear on tonight’s final agenda and may return for final action depending on subsequent debate and any motions to table or amend.
