INDEPENDENT PROGRESSIVE TACOMA, WASHINGTON

Neighborhood councils

Your neighborhood.
Your voice.

Find the council that serves your part of Tacoma, learn when it meets, and bring your experience into the public conversation.

Eight independent councils, one stronger Tacoma.

Neighborhood Councils are independent, nonprofit volunteer organizations. They give people who live, work, own property, or run businesses within a council boundary a place to raise concerns, share ideas, and hear directly from public agencies.

Meetings are open to participation. Schedules and locations can shift, so every page below links back to the council’s current notice.

Show up with a question, a story, or a neighbor.

Councils can help turn lived experience into a public record: a safer crossing, a land-use question, a needed service, a neighborhood event, or a concern that needs a City response.

  1. Find your council. Use the City map if you are unsure of the boundary.
  2. Check the current agenda. Bring a concise question or observation.
  3. Stay connected. Join a committee, share meeting information, or help another neighbor take part.

The City supports the program; councils remain independent.

The City’s Neighborhood Council Program provides the program framework, links to the eight councils, district mapping, and standards. The councils use that framework while organizing independently around neighborhood priorities.
