City Hall Open House

Last Saturday we invited community members to come downtown for the City Hall Open House. Hundreds of people joined us for an afternoon of fun, food and community.

The day began with tables set up by City departments to help people connect with information on City services and meet department representatives.

Next up was a Q&A session with the mayor.

Upstairs, tours of the mayor’s office began with a performance by local musicians Arlie Neskahi and Eagle’s Jump.

Tours of the office were led by mayor’s office staff.

All the tours ended in the mayor’s personal office, where he got a chance to meet everyone and hear about what’s important to them.

Many people stopped to write a message on the mayor’s white board.

We hope you can join us next year for the City Hall Open House.

    The open house was a great experience and will hopefully become an annual event.
