Opportunity to learn how local government works

Have you ever wondered who maintains our roads, how the City creates a budget or plans for the future of our parks?

Curious citizens will have an opportunity to learn how local government works in the second Shoreline CityWise Project, a series of eight interactive classes starting in January 2018.

Classes will meet at City Hall on Tuesday evenings starting January 23, with a Parks visit on a Saturday morning.

The number of participants is limited.

Applications are available online. The deadline to apply is January 5.

For more information, contact Neighborhoods Coordinator Constance Perenyi at 206) 801-2253
