CALL TO ACTION

FINAL READING OF ORDINANCE NOTICE

TACOMA CITY COUNCIL

NON-INTERIM REGULATIONS FOR THE TIDEFLATS

TUESDAY NOV. 16 AT 5:00PM

On Tuesday, November 16^th at 5:00 pm, the Tacoma City Council will conduct Final Reading of Ordinance regarding the Non-Interim Regulations.

Bottom Line - the new regulations are not ideal, but it is time to put something in place that allows the community to move on. However, this Council cannot reward entities who chose to villainize those who actually approached discussions in good faith, especially when those same groups believe this community should accept one hundred percent of what they want, no matter how many jobs, businesses and working families it robs from this city.

WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW

Go to the Manufacturing Industrial Council of the South Sound 

(MIC) Comment Portal and send a comment TODAY!

Urge the City Council to GET THIS DONE. These regulations relating to industrial lands in Tacoma affect thousands of jobs, the quality of our environment and the future of our prosperity of our community and region. Uncertainty creates unintended consequences.
