Tacoma's Neighborhood Council Program Overview

History of the Neighborhood Councils

In 1992, the City Council established Tacoma's eight Neighborhood Councils to advise them on issues of local importance and to seek consensus among residents on specific plans of action. The Neighborhood Councils also undertake a wide range of neighborhood improvements in collaboration with staff from the City of Tacoma and other agencies. 

What the Councils Do

Each Neighborhood Council serves as an independent, non-profit citizen organization to promote citizen-based efforts for neighborhood improvement.  

Who Can Participate

Any resident, business owner, employee, property owner, or member of an existing neighborhood group within a Neighborhood Council area can join a Neighborhood Council. Tacoma’s eight Neighborhood Council are the West End, Northeast Tacoma, New Tacoma, the North End, Central Tacoma, South Tacoma, the Eastside and the South End. 

Tacoma has eight neighborhood councils.
