Agenda for the June 14th meeting

The Agenda for the next meeting (June 14th) of your City Council has been posted on the City of Woodway website linked here.

Council members are given somewhat more detailed information prior to each meeting, sometimes delivered by a DPS officer. I was honored to meet DPS officer Corporal Craig Bouse, who introduced me to his partner "Bo", the Woodway K9 "officer" (drug detection dog). Bo is a German Shepard trained to sniff out four major illicit drugs (marijuana, heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine) and was partly responsible for a major bust (1900 lbs of marijuana) along I-35 just six weeks ago. The story (which fails to credit the Woodway officers involved) can be found here and here. Since many jurisdictions do not have their own K9 units, Woodway's unit assists some of the local areas.
