City Council to Continue Discussing Charter Review Committee Recommendations May 31

The Tacoma City Council will convene on May 31 at 9 AM to discuss the Charter Review Committee's recommendations for updating the City Charter, which acts as the governing law for the city. The City Charter outlines the organizational framework and fundamental rights associated with Tacoma's government, and it undergoes a comprehensive review every ten years. Residents can participate in the meeting in person or access it via audio coverage on TV Tacoma and through live streaming on the city’s website and Facebook. Additionally, the meeting will be accessible through Zoom, allowing for real-time participation from the community. Importantly, no public comments will be accepted during this session, limiting direct engagement with council members.

For further information on the Charter Review process leading up to 2024, residents are encouraged to visit the city’s dedicated web page or contact the media relations office. This meeting represents an important opportunity for civic engagement regarding the governance of Tacoma. Community members are urged to stay informed and involved in this crucial aspect of local governance.
