Residents Invited to Register for Lacey Community Academy

The City of Lacey is excited to announce the launch of its inaugural Lacey Community Academy, an interactive six-week program designed to enhance residents' understanding of local governance and public service operations. Set to commence on February 20, the academy will take place on Thursday evenings from 6:00 to 7:30 p. m. , creating a platform for community members aged 18 and older living within Lacey's city limits or Urban Growth Area. Participants will interact with City Council members and key city staff, offering a unique chance to see taxpayer investments in action.

The program will feature behind-the-scenes tours of city facilities, allowing residents to learn firsthand about the services provided by their local government. Applications are being accepted until January 31 or until all 15 spots are filled, emphasizing the limited nature of this valuable opportunity. The initiative aims to promote civic engagement and transparency, crucial for a well-informed community. For those interested in participating, further details and application forms can be found on the City of Lacey's official website. This academy not only educates participants about city operations but also empowers them to become more active members of their community.
