Happy New Year!
Take 2! Please forgive and disregard the earlier version of this email, which was missing info. (That's entirely on me, your Community Engagement Coordinator who was overly eager to wish you a happy new year.) Let's try again:

Happy New Year, Newcastle! Tomorrow, December 31, City offices will be closed in observance of the holiday. (That's why you're getting your newsletter a day early, and why it's just a wee one!) We'll still have our Maintenance Team out on the streets, plowing and de-icing their way through the Snow and Ice Priority Map.
We hope you and your family have a safe, healthy, and happy 2022.

Online Open House:
SE May Creek Park Dr. Improvements
Now through January 14, the Newcastle Public Works Team invites you to visit our Online Open House to explore proposed streetscape, bicycle, and pedestrian improvements to SE May Creek Park Drive, between SE 86th Place and 121st Ave. SE.

In addition to improving corridor aesthetics, this project will increase safety and improve mobility of the corridor for all users.

Upcoming Council Meeting: Jan. 4
Newcastle City Council will hold its regular meeting this Tuesday, January 4, at 7 p.m.

Join us in welcoming the newest members of the Newcastle City Council, Robert Clark, Pratima Lakhotia, and Paul Charbonneau! They will swear their oath of office at the top of Tuesday night's meeting.

Also at the upcoming meeting, Council will hear the results of the Newcastle Community Survey, elect a mayor and deputy mayor for the new term, and review the CIP quarterly report. They'll also confirm a new municipal judge and a new planning commissioner.

Please note that moving forward, our Zoom City Council Meetings will have a new link, which will be the same for each meeting.

If you would like to submit written public comment about items of importance to you, please contact the Newcastle City Clerk at cityclerk@newcastlewa.gov. Verbal public comment is accepted at the beginning and toward the end of each regular council meeting, and your councilmembers welcome hearing from you.
