If you haven’t had a chance yet to meet Mike Letcher, the new Tucson City Manager,
drop by the Ward 2 Council office tomorrow November 18, at 7 p.m.

City Manager Mike Letcher

Mr. Letcher will be speaking at this town hall about an update on budget issues, and he wants your input on City services priorities. When he was last at Ward 2 he stated to the audience that “Government R Us”, a humorous take-off of Toys “R” Us, indicating his openness about government officials meeting with city residents.

For those of you who missed those Community Key Services dialogues which I blogged about in October, here’s another opportunity to have a dialogue with the City Manager. The feedback results and photos of community members at the six ward offices are posted online.

The Ward 2 Council office is at 7575 E. Speedway, east of Kolb Road, on the north side of the street.

To RSVP or if you require special accommodations, please call Marilú
