What is the Community Assembly

Community Assembly meetings are hosted on digital platforms until officials have deemed it safe to gather again. If you are interested in virtually attending, contact the Office of Neighborhood Services: Neigh.Svcs@spokanecity.org.

The Community Assembly is a coalition of independent Neighborhood Councils and serves as a forum for discussion of issues of broad interest. Each Neighborhood Council selects one representative and a designated alternate to serve on the Community Assembly. Representatives are expected to represent the interests of their respective Neighborhood Council.
