During the gatherings, she will share her vision and goals for the department. One event will be in person, and the other will be virtual, according to the City of Tacoma.
The first event will be held in person on March 17 from 4 – 5 PM at the Tacoma Municipal Building Council Chambers, 747 Market Street, 1st Floor. A virtual event will take place on March 20 from noon to 1 PM.

The city has created a line for citizens to submit questions before 10 AM on March 17 to help organize the upcoming meet-and-greet events. Attendees, either in person or online, will have the chance to complete a survey at the end of each event. Only those who attend can participate in the survey, and all feedback will be sent to the City Manager for consideration in the appointment process, as stated by the City of Tacoma.
