HERMISTON – The Hermiston City Council meets tonight (Monday) at 7 p.m. The meeting is in the council chambers of Hermiston City Hall, 180 N.E. Second St.
Council members will consider signing an intergovernmental agreement to provide internet support services to the city of Pendleton. Hermiston has developed an internet technology department and other government agencies in the area have already signed up for those services. They include the city of Umatilla, Morrow County, and Umatilla County Fire District No. 1. The Pendleton City Council has the IGA on its agenda for its regular meeting Tuesday.
The council will hold a public hearing and possibly take action on an annexation request for land on the 1100 block of Northwest Sjoren Lane. The request for annexation was filed for by Kelly Nobles for 3.64 acres of land that is within a low-density residential area. The hearing and vote had been scheduled for the last city council meeting but was tabled until this meeting. The Hermiston Planning Commission has recommended the annexation.
The public is welcome to attend the meeting. It is also being streamed live on Hermiston’s YouTube channel.
