City Of Spokane Creates New Opportunity To Talk With/Question City Councilmembers

Get your thoughts and comments together because the Spokane City Council is debuting a new monthly public forum opportunity next week called “Talk About Town.”

Council President Ben Stuckart promised during his campaign for office to hold public forum opportunities outside of regular City Council meetings where both the media and citizens could ask questions of elected leaders and have a dialogue.

The first “Talk About Town” is Thursday, Feb. 16 at Browne Elementary School, 5102 N. Driscoll Blvd. from 7-8 p.m.

In addition to Council President Stuckart, confirmed attendees at the session include Council Members Michael Allen, Nancy McLaughlin, and Steve Salvatori. The forum will be conducted in a news conference format with everyone encouraged to attend.

There will be a different date, time and location for “Talk About Town” each month.
