~ Spokane City Council Seeks Community Input on Potential Meeting Day Change

The Spokane City Council is seeking input from the community regarding a potential change to its Monday legislative sessions. This consideration comes after multiple cancellations due to federal holidays, requests from stakeholders for more engagement time, and constituents' feedback.

Last year, the council first discussed the possibility of changing the meeting day and decided to defer further discussion until 2025 in order to gather community input and make an informed decision. As part of this process, a public survey has been launched to gauge public sentiment on the issue.

The potential change is outlined in Ordinance C36738, which currently does not specify a new meeting day. This section will remain blank until further public input is received.

The survey is open to all residents of Spokane and aims to collect input that reflects the needs and preferences of the community. The deadline for completing the survey is midnight on Sunday, September 21. The results will be presented during the Finance and Administration Committee meeting on September 22, 2025.

If approved, the change will be reflected in a first reading of the resolution on October 6, 2025, with a final reading and discussion scheduled for Monday, October 20 during a legislative session. The proposed change would take effect in August 2026.

Residents can access more information about this potential change through the "City Council to Consider Meeting Day Change" flyer available on the city's website.

The Spokane City Council encourages all residents to participate in this important survey as they work towards making an informed decision that best serves their community.
