Tumwater City Council to consider city ordinance update to extend code applicable to city parks to all city owned properties

Post Date:10/27/2025 10:00 a.m.
The Tumwater City Council is scheduled to consider proposed changes to the City Property and Public Parks code at the regular City Council meeting starting at 7 p.m. on November 18.
  
Beyond creating consistency with the City’s current event permitting processes, the main effect of the proposed ordinance language is to extend current rules applicable to parks to all city owned property.
   
Under the proposal for consideration by the Council, there would be no change to the City’s prohibition on overnight stays or camping at city parks, but rather an extension of these rules to all city owned property.
