Downtown District
The Spokane Matters initiative ended in 2019. For residents still looking to get involved in solving critical community concerns, we recommend reaching out to the appropriate City Department or getting involved in your neighborhood council.
We did not have any Downtown-specific project proposals for Spokane Matters 3.0. View 2019 projects in other districts:
