Applicants Sought for the Sustainable Tacoma Commission

The Tacoma City Council is looking to fill four seats on the Sustainable Tacoma Commission, including one youth position (ages 16-18). The purpose of the Commission is to bring community accountability to the implementation of Tacoma's 2030 Climate Action Plan and to support public involvement in sustainability issues.

The Tacoma City Council is looking for Commission members who provide a balanced representation of various stakeholders, such as the environmental, business, labor, housing, industrial, port, transportation, education, building, and residential communities. This role serves to oversee, coordinate, and communicate suggestions regarding policy, budget, and program recommendations to City Council through letters, testimonies, and other means of formal reporting.
