Public Safety is a top issue for many Tacoma operators. Your local government affairs team has been meeting with city staff, council members, partner stakeholders and the Tacoma Police Department to see how we can partner to enhance public safety in Tacoma.
This past week several hospitality association members met with Chief Avery L. Moore, Community engagement Manager Bervin Smith and Captain Corey Darling who heads the community liaison officer program. We had a productive conversation about actions we can take to partner together. First and foremost, reach out and meet the community liaison officer assigned to your zone. You can find out who that is here.
Chief Moore, Captain Darlington and their team are interested in scheduling meetings at local hospitality member locations to meet and discuss issues in the community. If you are interested in hosting one of these meetings or attending, please reach out to Director of Local Government Affairs John Lane at . We already have some operators who have volunteered, so stay tuned for more information when we get something scheduled.
