Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown has ordered flags at all City facilities to be lowered to half-staff to coincide with Governor Jay Inslee’s directive that state and U.S. flags at all state agency facilities be lowered on Monday, May 27 for Memorial Day

Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May and commemorates those who lost their lives while serving in the country’s armed forces.
