Chair calls special Board of Health meeting, holds brief executive session

The Board of Health convened a special meeting called by the Chair and entered a 15-minute executive session under state law, the Chair said. The meeting was scheduled for July 15, 2026; the Chair indicated the session would be brief and that no public action would follow.

The Chair identified the order of business as an executive session "for 15 minutes," and said there would be "no after action." The transcript’s spoken statutory reference was garbled; the applicable exemption for closed sessions under Washington law is RCW 42.30.110(1)(g), which allows certain discussions to be held in private. The board returned from the executive session and the Chair confirmed that no formal action had been taken.

The Chair adjourned the meeting "without objection." No motions, votes, or appointments were recorded in the public minutes during this special meeting.

The meeting record shows the board met briefly to hold an executive session and took no formal public action; no follow-up items or staff assignments were announced at adjournment.
