Mayor Larson Announces 2018 Duluth City Hall in the City Community Listening Sessions
[Duluth, MN] – Duluth Mayor Emily Larson is continuing her annual commitment of outreach to Duluth residents through City Hall in the City Community Listening sessions that are held in neighborhoods across the city. Mayor Larson started these listening sessions in partnership with City Councilors to ensure residents have an opportunity to speak directly to their elected officials one-on-one.
City staff are also in attendance and represent Public Works, Parks, Public Safety, Human Rights, and Imagine Duluth Comprehensive Plan. The previous sessions enabled residents to have individualize conversations with the Mayor, City Councilors or City staff about various issues or topics of concern.
“I’m excited to start 2018 with a new series of listening sessions and opportunities to meet with residents to talk about important or emerging issues. As I listen to residents all over the city, it really helps provide clarity and direction for our day to day work serving residents and visitors. It’s also important for residents to feel they have access to me, City Councilors and City staff and can share insight and ideas. City Hall in the City is family friendly and open to all residents. I look forward to great conversations ahead,” said Mayor Larson.
The upcoming City Hall in the City listening sessions run from 5:30-7:00 pm. These events are open to all residents and children are welcome to attend. The dates and locations with City Councilors and locations are as follows:
