Bothell Sound

City Hall · Jun 16, 2026

Bothell was scheduled to weigh exiting the regional federal grant program

Ahead of its June 16, 2026 meeting, the record shows the city was scheduled to consider a resolution directing staff to give notice of intent to terminate its Community Development Block Grant participation with King and Snohomish Counties by July 7, 2026 1.

What the records say

In materials posted ahead of the June 16, 2026 meeting, the city was scheduled to consider Agenda Bill 26-112, which would adopt a resolution directing city staff to provide notice of intent to terminate participation in the interlocal cooperation agreements for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program with King County and Snohomish County 1. The packet included renewal notices and draft interlocal cooperation agreements for both counties, plus a resolution titled 'Intent to Terminate' 1. The recommended action called for the termination notice to be delivered by July 7, 2026 1. The available records do not establish the meeting's outcome.

  • Agenda Bill 26-112 was scheduled for the June 16, 2026 meeting and would adopt a resolution on terminating CDBG participation.
  • The recommended action was to have city staff provide notice of intent to terminate the interlocal cooperation agreements with King and Snohomish Counties by July 7, 2026.
  • The packet included CDBG interlocal agreement renewal notices and draft agreements for both counties, plus a resolution of intent to terminate.

Why it matters

CDBG dollars help pay for local housing and community improvement projects, so a decision to withdraw from the county consortium agreements could affect how much federal grant funding flows to Bothell projects in the future 1.

What changed / what's next

  • The record proposed adopting a resolution to request city staff provide notice of intent to terminate participation in the CDBG interlocal cooperation agreements with King and Snohomish Counties by July 7, 2026 1.
  • The available records do not establish the meeting's outcome, so it is unknown whether the resolution was adopted or the termination notice was sent 1.
