~ Spokane City Hall and other city facilities will be closed on Thursday and Friday, November 28th and 29th in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. This announcement was made by Erin Hut, the Communications Director for the city, who can be reached at 509.625.6740.
In addition to the closures of City Hall and other facilities, there are several other changes and cancellations that residents should be aware of during this time. Solid Waste Services will be delayed by one day for those whose garbage is normally picked up on Thursday and Friday. This means that Thursday's rounds will be completed on Friday, November 29th, and Friday's rounds will be completed on Saturday, November 30th. It is also important to note that this week marks the last week for Clean Green yard and food waste pickup before it becomes an optional service in January, February, and December starting in 2025.
Parking meters and kiosks will not require payment on Thanksgiving Day; however, all parking rules including time limits still apply even when parking is free on holidays. The Spokane Public Library locations will also be closed on both Thursday and Friday.
