• Council Meetings during COVID-19 Emergency

  The Olympia City Council will continue to hold its regular meeting schedule during the coronavirus (COVID-19) emergency. However, the Council will change how it conducts meetings to adhere to the required social distancing guidelines. Starting at the March 24 Council meeting, the following steps will be implemented:

  • The Council Chamber will be closed to the public.
  • No public comment will be taken at the meeting.
  • The meeting will be broadcast on monitors in the City Hall lobby, and chairs will be set up in a safe, social-distancing arrangement in the lobby.

  How can I comment?

  A link to the Council agenda and meeting packet will be posted to Engage Olympia after 3 p.m. the Thursday before the meeting. Once posted, the public can comment on agenda items until noon on the Tuesday that Council meets. This will give Councilmembers an opportunity to review the comments before the meeting that evening.
