A stunning reversal took place in Pierce County Tuesday night, after the sponsor of a measure seeking to reorganize the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department voted against her own bill.
The bill was first drafted by County Councilmember Doug Richardson, who later took his name off of it, leaving fellow Republican Councilmember Pam Roach as the sole remaining sponsor. In its original form, it would have ended the 38-year-old interlocal agreement that forms the backbone of the Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department, and place the it under the control of elected local leaders.
