Regular City Council Meeting

City Council to consider new firearms and trapping ordinances and two contract requests

The Ocean Shores City Council will vote on two revised ordinances—one updating firearms, projectiles and electrical weapons regulations, and another revising trapping rules. Council members will also decide two contract requests: an agreement with Pro‑West GIS for upgrading the city’s asset‑management software and the award of the 2026 Aquatic Weed Management contract to Aquatechnex. Additional agenda items include announcements of several board vacancies and re‑appointments to the Fresh Waterways Advisory Committee.
