The City of U.P. does not have public meeting rooms that community groups can use for their meetings. So we are grateful to First Financial NW Bank for allowing the City’s Economic Development Commission and other community nonprofits to use their conference room free of charge for meetings and retreats. Northwest Medical Arts has a lovely and inviting lobby area that they are willing to offer to various groups for meetings and MOD Pizza has also indicated that they are willing to work with community organizations that may wish to meet in their space as well.
If you have rooms available for occasional community group meetings, please let Becky Metcalf know. She will be compiling a list for a future issue of Talking UP and to share with City staff when they receive requests or inquiries.
WHY does this crack me up so much, lol??? Hmmmm…..Is it because the design of University Place’s current city hall is perhaps less public friendly than when city hall was located at Windmill Village??
