Land Acknowledgement to Honor First Peoples

We acknowledge that the City of Kenmore is situated upon the ancestral lands of the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, Sauk-Suiattle, Duwamish, Stillaguamish, Tulalip, Suquamish, Muckleshoot, and other tribes who are part of the Coast Salish Peoples. We recognize and express our deepest respect for their enduring stewardship and profound relationship with this land, which they have cherished and protected since time immemorial. We honor the First Peoples, acknowledge their vibrant cultures, and commit ourselves to learning from their wisdom in our journey to promote justice, equity, and mutual understanding. We pledge to stand alongside these communities in acknowledging past injustices and working towards a future that respects and celebrates the diverse heritage of this land.

WHERE'S THE FUN?

PUBLIC COMMENTS

We welcome our community members to the Council’s meeting. In this forum, the Council does not engage or dialogue with the public; the primary role of the Council is to listen. We will hear from our on-site guests first, followed by our virtual guests. If you're online, please use the “raise hand” feature now if you wish to speak. All guests must address comments to the Mayor and City Council. The Clerk will acknowledge your request and call your name when it is your turn. Your time will start when we confirm that we can hear you. Please state your name and city of residence for the record and keep your comments to the allotted time. We will not split your time with others or reset your time except by express approval of the Presiding Officer. Screen-sharing is not allowed; you can submit materials to the Council or Clerk in advance. Please do not comment about pending development projects on which the Council will make future decisions as those are quasi-judicial matters, and Councilmembers must limit their communications about such matters. This meeting is being recorded. Thank you for taking the time to express your comments.
