Motion by Councilor Cunningham; second by Councilor Gary; vote recorded unanimously (6–0).
- Resolution 2025‑51 — Authorize interim city manager to sign annexation agreement (Tax Lot R4409CD00100, Yamhill Soil and Water Conservation District/Mac Multi LLC): Adopted. Motion by Councilor Payne; second by Councilor Chenoweth; recorded unanimous approval (6–0). Agreement starts annexation and land‑use review for a proposed multifamily development on a 3.17‑acre parcel adjacent to Shegwin Park.
- Resolution 2025‑57 — Addendum to MacTown 2032 strategic plan: Adopted. Motion by Councilor Chenoweth; second by Councilor Tokalski; recorded unanimous approval (6–0). The addendum formalizes council goal changes from the current goal‑setting process.
- Ordinance 5165 — Amend Title 17 chapters 17.57 (landscaping) and 17.58 (trees): First reading failed. Planning staff and the Planning Commission recommended the amendment; the first reading did not secure sufficient council support to advance to a second reading. Council directed staff to hold the draft and bring a broader discussion on volunteer committee roles to the Nov. 12 work session before reconsideration. If council chooses to revise and reintroduce the ordinance, state notice and Planning Commission review may be required.
- URA Resolution 2025‑O5 — Appoint member to the McMinnville Urban Renewal Advisory Committee: Adopted. Motion and recorded approval noted in the Urban Renewal Agency session (6–0); appointee named in the transcript.
How votes were recorded: Recorded votes are reflected in the meeting transcript where roll‑call votes were taken. Where the transcript shows a unanimous recorded vote, the summary above reflects that outcome. On the failed ordinance reading, the transcript captured division among councilors; because the council did not advance the measure, staff will return with follow‑up as directed.
Ending: Staff will execute adopted resolutions and proceed with administrative tasks (budget amendments, annexation agreement execution, URA appointment). For the failed ordinance, staff will place a discussion item about committee roles on the Nov. 12 agenda and hold the draft ordinance pending council direction.
