Discussion questions will invite participants to share their experiences and identify ways the city can improve opportunity and belonging for all community members
VANCOUVER – The Vancouver City Council will hold its next council community forum from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on Monday, March 23, at Vancouver City Hall, 415 W. 6th Street.
All community members are invited to attend and share their questions, concerns and ideas with the members of City Council in group discussions. The forum will focus on how our community is creating a “Vancouver for All.” Discussion questions will invite participants to share their experiences and identify ways the city can improve opportunity and belonging for all community members.
Ahead of the meeting, community members are invited to consider:
- What makes you feel connected to our community?
- What barriers might prevent some residents from fully benefiting from the opportunities that our community offers?
- How can we improve belonging for people of all ages, backgrounds, and income levels?
Doors open at 5 p.m. for a City Council special session and public hearing. Those who prefer to only attend the community forum should arrive by 6:30 p.m. RSVP to attend.
For interpretation services or accommodations, please get in touch with the City Manager’s office at (360) 487-8600 or cityinfo@cityofvancouver.us.
Quarterly community forums provide an opportunity for community members to connect with their elected representatives outside of the formal City Council meeting setting. In 2026, community forums will be held on March 23, June 22, Sept. 28 and Nov. 23. Please see the City’s events and meeting calendar for more information prior to each forum.
