Marietta's local government is focusing on civic engagement, offering more opportunities for residents to stay informed about city affairs. The City Council has set meetings for the upcoming week: one agenda work session on Monday, May 12, and an agenda review followed by a regular meeting on Wednesday, May 14. Those who want to witness democracy in action can mark their calendars for 5:15 PM on Monday and 6:00 PM on Wednesday, 7:00 PM for the main event. It's all happening at the City Hall, detailed in an announcement on the city's website.
As part of the local government's bid to tout transparency, anybody with an internet connection or the will to show up in person can attend. The sessions aim to provide citizens with a clear view of how the city operates and makes decisions. According to a publication on mariettaga.gov, the council chamber at 205 Lawrence Street in downtown Marietta will be open to the public.
To keep the community informed, the city is posting meeting agendas online in advance. The sessions will be broadcast live and archived on the city's website for future access. If any questions arise after the meetings, an informal discussion will follow, giving residents a chance to share ideas and concerns in the council chamber. Anyone looking for more information can dial-up 770-794-5509, as stated on the city's alert.
